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.  You can access this at https://drvignesh.teachable.com/ For further information about Dr Vignesh Devraj, kindly visit www.vigneshdevraj.com and www.sitaramretreat.com  Instagram -  @sitarambeachretreat | @vigneshdevraj Twitter - @VigneshDevraj We truly hope you are enjoying our content.
