Most weight loss strategies ignore the powerful connection between your stress levels, hormonal balance, and body’s self-protection mechanism — Kapha. But what if the secret to sustainable weight health is understanding why your body holds onto weight in the first place? In this episode, renowned Ayurvedic expert Larissa Hall Carlson joins Kari Harendorf to reveal how stress, life transitions, and emotional patterns activate your body’s natural defense system — and how working with Ayurveda and yoga can gently restore balance from within.
