Ready to ground yourself in proven wisdom as you step into 2025? This conversation lights the way forward.

In this illuminating episode, Myra Lewin shares her insights on what Ayurveda looks like in our modern world. Interviewed by Samantha, Myra delves into the origins of this 5,000-year-old science and how its core principles remain relevant today, beyond wellness trends and quick fixes.

From dosha quizzes to quick-fix herbs, Myra and Samantha uncover the common pitfalls of modern adaptations and explore what it means to practice Ayurveda in its most potent form.

What do ejaculation, tears and cough have in common?

Join us for another unfiltered dive into the body's innate intelligence.

In our second exploration of prajnaparadha (crimes against wisdom), Myra unravels more hidden health consequences of suppressing natural urges. When the mind runs the show, the body becomes unconsciously silenced.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Emotional suppression (tears and laughter): how does it manifest?
• The hidden truth about ejaculation, what happens when it's withheld and the difference between men's and women's ejaculation.
• Moving away from the fear of coughing and sneezing (especially after COVID)
• Myra's experience with clients suffering from disordered eating and practicing self-induced vomiting. The difference with the need to vomit.
• Myra's personal experience with the urge to breathe with exertion.
• Tools to help with letting go of control of the mind.
• How to follow the body's urge instead of the mind's urges (the stories we make about them).

Feeling the urge to understand your body's deepest wisdom? Honor it.

In this first episode of our two-part series on prajnaparadha (crimes against wisdom), we're getting open and candid about those "impolite" bodily functions we often suppress. Myra explores why these natural urges are your body's intelligence at work and how ignoring them hinders your health more than you think.

Most of us aren't aware of the body's natural urges, let alone how often we suppress them. What society deems "proper" or "normal" doesn't necessarily serve our well-being.

Wish to know more about the various natural urges of the body (there are 14 in total), or ready to challenge your social conditioning?

Prepare for some honest talk! Time to let it all out...

Topics covered:

• Understanding hunger in comparison to mind cravings.
• Burping & hiccups: what they're telling you.
• Why flatulence relates to the balance of our doshas and digestive capacity.
• Honoring the natural rhythms with sleep and yawning.
• How and why suppressing natural urges affects your health.

Stay tuned for Part II in December.
