Do you feel more anxious, scattered, or physically cold and dry as fall sets in? If so, you’re not alone. As a highly sensitive person, I feel the shift from summer to fall intensely, and I’ve noticed it in my clients too. Everyone seems more tired and anxious right now.

In the past, I wondered what was wrong with me, even moving across the world multiple times to avoid fall and winter altogether. Now, with more compassion and understanding, I know it’s just part of who I am. More importantly, I recognize these signals are here to help me understand what I need to thrive. If you want to shift from wondering what’s wrong with me to knowing exactly what you need to feel your best, this episode is for you.

Tune in to explore why fall feels like a challenging transition from the perspective of Ayurveda. I discuss the elements that create the essence of autumn in your mind, body, and energy. You’ll learn to recognize characteristics of a Vata constitution and discover practical tools to bring more balance, groundedness, and warmth into your life.

What You’ll Discover:

• How the elements of air and ether combine in Vata season to affect your mind, body and energy.
• The common signs and symptoms of a Vata imbalance, from dry skin to anxious thoughts.
• Why highly sensitive people often have a Vata-dominant constitution and feel the effects of fall more intensely.
• The five Vata sub-doshas (Vayus) and how imbalances in each one can manifest physically, mentally and emotionally.
• Ayurvedic tools and practices to pacify Vata and restore balance, including diet, lifestyle, yoga, breathwork and self-care.
• How to use the principle of Praktipaksha Bhavana to consciously counteract the qualities of Vata season.
• Why fall is the perfect time to embrace the positive aspects of balanced Vata energy, from creativity to flexibility.
