Amy chats with Anjali Deva, Anjali is an Ayurvedic practitioner, writer, and teacher. Her private practice, Rooted Rasa, specializes in understanding anxiety, depression, PTSD, digestive disorders, and women’s health from a holistic and integrative understanding. Anjali has been positively influenced by using food as medicine, daily and seasonal routines, western herbalism, Buddhist philosophy, and breath-based practices. Anjali’s approach to Ayurveda is gentle and compassionate. They talk about nourishing food choices, and how appropriate food helps the human body and mind to feel in balance. Anljali also discusses how food as the foundation of every part of our physical and subtle bodies, and how different types of foods are suitable for different seasons of the year and seasons of life.

Foundations we support

http://www.kym.org

We have all benefitted from the ancient wisdom of India and her people, so it feels really great to be able to serve in this way. The Optimal State family has pledged on-going support of $500 per month, to go directly to KYM Mitra (www.kym.org). We will collect the monies and gift them each month. Please consider a recurring monthly payment to the fund. Even a small gift or intention makes a difference! If we make more than $500 in any given month, it will roll into the following month’s payment. The hope is that we can contribute for many years to come. If you even lose the link to donate, it is at the top of the homepage at www.amywheeler.com also. I will be reporting on the website the progress; how much money is coming in at any given time and where we are in the process of getting this project off the ground.

Here is the link for you to get started with your donation. We are so happy that you have decided to join us. We thank you for the bottom of our hearts!
