January is often framed as a time for reinvention, goal-setting, and resolutions. But from a seasonal and Ayurvedic perspective, winter is not a beginning — it’s a closing and conserving phase.

In this episode, I explore why January 1 is not biologically or energetically aligned with change, discipline, or detox, and why so many resolutions feel heavy, forced, or short-lived. We’ll look at how the body actually moves through winter, what Ayurveda teaches about timing, and how to work with this season instead of against it.

I also share what to do instead of making resolutions in January — including how to use this time for integration, rest, reflection, and quiet preparation — so that change can arise naturally when spring arrives.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, honor winter, and rethink what “starting fresh” really means.

PART TWO: In this episode, we dive into the transformative power of the breath and how proper breathing can unlock untapped healing potential. Dr. John Douillard talks about the implications of shallow, unconscious breathing, while intentional breathwork can help reverse these effects, promoting greater resilience and vitality.

We unpack ancient breathing practices, like pranayama, that have been used for thousands of years to balance energy, calm the mind, and strengthen the body. Modern research is now confirming what these ancient traditions have long known: that the way we breathe directly impacts our health, from optimizing oxygen intake and improving sleep to regulating emotions and reducing inflammation.
