In this episode of the Nourish Nervous System podcast, I discuss the importance of rhythm and rituals in maintaining balance, especially as we transition from summer to autumn. 

I explore definitions of rhythm from different sources and how it applies to daily life and nature. 

I emphasize the significance of rest and how creating small personal rituals can help ground and regulate the nervous system. 

I also touch on the impact of forced rhythms, like a nine-to-five work schedule, and offer suggestions for aligning with natural rhythms through Ayurvedic practices. 

I provide practical tips and resources to help you create and sustain meaningful rituals in your daily life.

In this episode:

  • Understanding Rhythm
  • Ayurvedic Perspective on Rhythm
  • Creating Personal Rhythms
  •  Impact of Forced Rhythms
  • Seasonal Rhythms and Ayurveda
  • Daily Rhythms and Rituals
