Emotional intelligence is often expressed as a modern psychological skill, but Ayurveda has explored its roots for thousands of years. In this episode, Dr. Vignesh breaks down emotional intelligence through an Ayurvedic lens, explaining how emotions function as messages, how suppressed feelings impact physical health, and why understanding emotions is crucial for long-term well-being. This is a deep dive into how to decode these signals, strengthen emotional awareness, and prevent unresolved emotions from manifesting as chronic pain, autoimmune issues, fatigue, or energy blocks.
