Ep. 72 - Modern Ayurveda: Ancient Wisdom for a Busy World - with Shivani Gupta

Shivani Gupta is an author, speaker, and Ayurveda expert. At its most basic level, Ayurveda is the science of life – a traditional Hindu system of medicine that uses diet, herbal treatment, and yogic breathing to promote balance between mind, body, and spirit.

There are a lot of Ayurveda practitioners out there digging into the clinical side of things, but Shivani focuses more on the research – what is the science behind Ayurveda and what do these herbs really do for us? Shivani takes the knowledge and ancient wisdom of Ayurvedic practices and adapts it to a modern life so that we can have healthier digestion and lives.
