Welcome to Season 3, Episode 3 of the Sick and Seeking Podcast! In this enlightening episode, I sit down with Dr. Shivani Gupta to delve into the ancient Indian system of health and healing known as Ayurveda. 

Dr. Shivani outlines how Ayurveda is a holistic lifestyle that aims to harmonize the body, mind, and spirit.

Join us for this insightful conversation that bridges ancient wisdom and modern health practices!

Conversation Highlights:

  • Understanding Ayurveda: Dr. Gupta details how Ayurveda serves as a lifestyle practice that prioritizes alignment between the body, mind, and spirit.
  • The Six Pillars of Elemental Design: We explore the essential components of Ayurvedic practice: knowing your dosha (mind-body constitution), living in harmony with nature, ensuring gut health, adhering to a Sattvic diet, engaging in self-care, and incorporating healing spices into your routine.
  • Dr. Gupta's Personal Journey: She shares her own path to discovering Ayurveda, highlighting the critical roles of sleep and gut health within this traditional medicine.
  • The Importance of Gut Health: Our conversation emphasizes the foundational significance of gut health and how dietary choices affect overall wellness. We discuss the widespread normalization of poor gut health and stress the need to pay closer attention to our dietary habits.
  • Mindful Eating and Health: The episode also touches on the concept of mindful medicine, exploring how supplements, herbs, and spices can support well-being. We wrap up with a look at Fusionary Formulas—Dr. Gupta’s line of products designed to enhance wellness.
