In this episode of "Go Deeper," Ayurveda and Yoga Therapist Indu Arora joins Dr. Avanti to discuss the benefits of sleep, rest, and Shavasana. Indu explains the difference between rest and sleep from an Ayurvedic perspective and explores the various sleep stages and their correlation to meditation. The focus of the conversation is on Shavasana's ability to help individuals "undo" and "unlearn" by giving space for emotions and discomfort to arise, and consciously working towards letting go through breath and reducing sensory overload. Indu shares different ways to practice Shavasana, when and how to do it, and five simple steps to practice it effectively.
