Pathogenesis is how a dis-ease unfolds and doshas are the cause of dis-ease. In both our bodies and in life we go through these three natural stages – accumulation, aggravation + alleviation. This is all normal and all of it is influenced by our age, the seasons, the time of day, and the climate. But, how do we manage this outside of our physical bodies and within society? What can we do about our tendency to live in extremes? In this episode of the NEW Ayurvedic Woman podcast Dr. Satyavani and co-host Prajna Madhavi provide some insights on how to stay in balance not only physically but also through daily life where societal extremes have become the norm but don't have to.

This is a brief introduction to the NEW Ayurvedic Woman podcast. Dr. Satyavani tells us about the new changes the show is going to have beginning June 2023.

Confidence is enlightenment. Enlightenment about your self.   This is the anatomy of confidence.  If one of the goals in this science of life or in life in general is to keep the body in a state of health and free from disease then we have to  work on strengthening our confidence, just like a muscle so it does not atrophy.    If we want to use this health as a basis of, or as part of, the path to enlightenment we have to cultivate, nurture, strengthen, experience and  embody confidence.    Confidence is enlightenment.

In this episode, Dr. Satyavani talks about the upcoming 2023 Ayurvedic Woman Program and how it can solve your pain point and turn it into power.

In this episode Dr. Satyavani guides you through a yoga nidra for spiritual development. In order for us to move from pain to power we must engage in practices that get to the root of our pain in a non-attached way. We call this being the witness or witness consciousness.

Pain is an interesting thing. As mentioned, there is physical pain, mental pain, emotional pain and even spiritual pain - especially when we are on the precipice of a major shift and change. In Ayurveda, the idea of pain and how it manifests is a symptom of imbalanced Vata dosha. Air and ether elements. It is also rajasic in nature. Shift, change, instability. How do we turn pain into power?

One of the hardest jobs a woman can do is be a mother. On this episode we speak with Ali Roper and how as a single mother for most of her life raised her children with Ayurvedic and Yogic principles to help contribute to the world. Her work as a mother lead into intuitive body work and now the practice of Panchakarma. Learn how all of these elements come together and act as guiding principles for a full life for this extraordinary woman.
