The Nourished Nervous System
Flashback: What the Vata?!
As we fully enter into "Vata Season" here in the Northeast, I thought we would revisit the basics this week for anyone new to Ayurveda or needing a refresher on vata dosha.
In Ayurvedic philosophy, Vata refers to a constitution made up of the air and space elements. In this episode we will go a bit deeper into vata. We will talk about
- The qualities of vata
- How vata shows up in our bodies, emotions, environment, season, times of day, and times of life.
- How vata is connected to our nervous system.
- Why it is so hard to keep vata balanced in our modern world.
- Ways that you can begin to balance vata in your life.
