I am joined by Ayurvedic practitioner Anuradha Gupta in this episode to look at how Ayurveda can support emotional regulation, and learning of neurodivergent children and their caregivers. We talk about:
- What doshas and gunas really are, and how they shape your child’s emotions, attention, and learning
- The Ayurvedic principle of chatushpad and why a child’s progress is inseparable from a parent’s wellbeing
- Strategies for Vata, Pitta, and Kapha imbalances in autistic and non-speaking children
- How to regulate when breathwork isn’t possible, and why co-regulation matters more than ever
- Why honoring your child’s natural tendencies isn’t permissive parenting—it’s transformational
