In this episode, Dr Vignesh Devraj  dives into the Ayurvedic concept of Āma, often referred to as the hidden toxins within our bodies. Āma is more than just a by-product of poor digestion; it is a key contributor in the onset of pain and disease. 

This episode explores how Āma forms, its impact on health, and the importance of treatments like Panchakarma to restore balance and well-being. Whether you’re new to Ayurveda or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode sheds light on the critical role Āma plays in maintaining overall health.

A couple of topics discussed in this episode are:

1. Understanding Arogya and Āma in Ayurveda 

2. The Relationship Between Āma and Pain 

3. How Āma Forms in the Body 

4. The Connection Between Āma and Disease 

5. Recognizing Symptoms of High Āma 

6. Āma as a Sign of Imbalance in the Body 

7. Goals of Treatment: Minimizing or Eliminating Āma

BALANCE THE MIGHTY VATA - ONLINE COURSE NOW AVAILABLE 

What makes Ayurveda unique in its treatment approach is its practical wisdom on the concept of Vata. Vata is responsible for Prana - the life energy, nervous system - the master panel of our body, and our emotions. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that controlling Vata is the most difficult part of healing and recovery. Recently I have recorded a workshop on - Balancing The Mighty Vata which has over 6 hrs of content, with notes filled with practical inputs that can be integrated into our life.
