Many Germans are drawn to Ayurveda not simply for detox or retreat experiences, but for something deeper: a structured space that allows surrender. In this conversation, Dr. Vignesh Devraj and Carina Preuss explore why certain cultures resonate so strongly with Ayurveda, the psychology of control and burnout, and how nature’s rules offer a more sustainable path to health than society’s rules.

Episode Highlights:

- Backstory of one of the Oldest German Panchakarma Retreats

- Why Germans Feel at Home in Ayurveda

- The habit of anticipating results & controls

- Healing Through Rules of Nature

- Younger professionals choosing Ayurveda for prevention
