Do you feel both captivated and exhausted by city life? Are the conveniences worth the chaos? In this episode of the Rooted in Wellness podcast, join me, Wade Lightheart, and Matt Gallant as we explore the challenges of maintaining balance in busy urban environments and the serene contrast of ashram life.
