In this episode:


What is Svastha?
Yoga and Ayurveda are health practices deeply rooted in the philosophy of Svastha. This concept, foundational to both traditions, encompasses:

Sva: True health is being established in a sense of self. Astha: Firm establishment, to stand by or occupy with faith.

Why is Swastha Important?
Swastha represents true health and alignment with your unique self. Without it, physical illness can become an obstacle in yoga and life, underscoring the importance of cultivating health as a foundation for spiritual and personal growth.


The Four Pillars of Health in Ayurveda:

Ahar (Diet)

Vihar (Lifestyle)

Nidra (Sleep)

Brahmacharya (Energy management and mindful living)Aaron and Paige share their experiences with:

Adopting a slow and steady approach to health.

Balancing health with business demands.

The concept of Padam Padam (step by step), illustrating the incremental path to sustainable health.

How Does Swastha Relate to Yoga & Practice?

Physical illness is one of the primary obstacles to yoga practice.

Achieving and maintaining health is essential for a steady and effective yoga journey.
