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, which is responsible for prana - the life energy, nervous system which is the master control 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. You can access this at https://drvignesh.teachable.com/ In this episode, Dr Vignesh Devraj is interviewing Nisha Khanna,   a board-certified internist who has been practising medicine since 2005. As a Western-trained physician, she learned the strengths and limitations of the modern medical system and sought to reach beyond its boundaries. When conventional clinical experience convinced her that she had to be able to offer more to her patients, a return to her roots showed her a powerful path to healing the entirety of people’s beings. In this episode, we explore the root cause of thyroid disorders through the lens of Ayurveda and Allopathy. We also share key insights on the interconnected nature of hormones, mind-body connection and discuss the emotional aspects involved in developing thyroid disorders. The topics discussed in this episode are: Understanding the function of the thyroid gland Root causes of developing thyroid disorders Understanding thyroid disorders through an Ayurvedic lens Understanding throat chakra blockages and ways to heal Importance of self-expression and emotional expression for healthy hormones You can reach Nisha Khanna at Website:https://nishakhannamd.com/ For further information about Dr Vignesh Devraj, kindly visit www.vigneshdevraj.com and www.sitaramretreat.com His Instagram handles are @sitarambeachretreat @vigneshdevraj If you are interested in doing one on one ayurvedic consultation with Dr Vignesh Devraj please find the details in this link - Ayurvedic Consultation with Dr Vignesh Devraj If you are economically challenged, please use the form provided to request a free Ayurvedic consultation here.
