S7 E8: Sound as Medicine
In this episode, I break down sound as medicine through the lens of Ayurveda and traditional yoga. We explore how sound directly influences the nervous system, why it has such a strong effect on Vata dosha, and how regulation impacts digestion, immunity, and overall resilience.
You’ll learn what’s actually happening in the body during a sound bath, why healing in Ayurveda begins with regulation, and why more stimulation is not always better.
If you’ve experienced sound therapy — or are curious about it — this episode will help you understand it beyond the mystical language and into real physiological intelligence.

S7 E10: Preparing for Spring Allergies
Published 10 Mar 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] We can also assess a level of ama by doing a tongue analysis. But when ama accumulates, then it begins to circulate in the body and obstruct our channels. So in the spring, when kapha begins to melt in our body, this ama, the toxins, it mixes with kapha, and it begins to move toward the respiratory system. This is what creates inflammation, mucus, and hypersensitivity. So the real goal of preventing spring allergies is to strengthen digestion, clear the ama, and reduce excess kapha before spring peaks. Now, speaking of congestion, I also want to share that there are two types of congestion. There is this congestion that I was just talking about where there's a lot of heaviness and mucus coming out of the nose and you have that post-nasal mucus drip. […]
