Episode  66 - Nervous System Reset for Vata Season

Kristen Timchak          

Do you ever notice changes in your sleep or digestion as you enter into autumn?  Does your skin get drier?  Do you feel spacier or more anxiety?  If so, you may be experiencing excess vata dosha.  

In Ayurvedic thought, Autumn is Vata season, a time of year where the elements of air and space are more prevalent.  

In this week's episode,  I discuss the importance of seasonal resets for maintaining digestive health, immunity, and a regulated nervous system. Listeners are provided with practical advice on establishing consistent routines, incorporating grounding and nourishing foods, and reducing screen time. 

Through personal anecdotes and expert tips, I underscore the importance of mindful consumption and sustainable lifestyle changes that nourish both body and soul. 

Whether you're experiencing Vata-induced insomnia or seeking to feel more grounded, this episode offers a wealth of relatable wisdom and actionable strategies.
