Giving doesn’t need to cost anything. Your PRESENCE is the real Present.

This is episode is your mid-month story time. A retelling of my chance encounter with Ishaan Khatter, a Bollywood actor, and how this turned into an unexpected lesson in humility, kindness, and presence.

.

This episode reframes the real meaning of giving, beyond money, gifts or extravagance, and highlights the real value of time, warmth, attention, and human connection. Something money doesn’t buy.

.

Kindness from the heart that costs nothing.

Do one act of ‘invisible’ giving today. No announcement, no credit. Just selfless giving.

.

Every day we make thousands of seemingly insignificant decisions and choices, all part of our life's journey, leading us to something bigger. Do not forget to value them each of these, not just the ones leading to encounters with famous people!

A fun episode about leaning into the nostalgia of Christmas; the food, films, friends, family and festivity! The softness and joy, and all those fuzzy Christmas feels.

.

This is your permission slip fully embrace the festive cheese. Sparkle and shine this December. (Even if your outfit gets called ‘silly’ by the in-house Christmas Grinch.)

.

December is full of small pleasures — food, music, films, nostalgia.

This episode celebrates the “cheese” of Christmas, and why being a part of it (with awareness, not excess) is good for mood, connection, and joy.

A reminder that fun and festivity, is a wellness practice too.

.

Do one “cheesy Christmas” thing today and enjoy it fully and unashamedly!

Let me know what it was! @drsnehajetty and LinkedIn :)

This episode explores simple, beautiful ways to reduce waste and increase meaning—scarves as wrapping paper, saved ribbons, hand-made gift tags, home-made gifts, and refreshed decorations.

.

Use your re-awakened creativity in this cosy, practical episode on creating an eco-gentle Christmas — less waste, less excess, more meaning.

.

December is beautiful time of the year, but can also be incredibly wasteful.

The excess wrapping, packaging, gifts that become clutter — it all disconnects us from what we actually value and the importance of Christmas for so many of us; community and connection.

.

Try one eco-swap this week & share your creation.

A calmer Christmas starts with less.

You don’t just need wellness. You need creativity. Your brain is hungry for beauty.

.

Creativity is not optional—it's a biological need, but so many of us are creatively suppressed. We’ve grown accustomed to the muted tones, straight lines, and conformity of life.

.

Today I explore the importance of bringing back creative expression into our lives, and the developing science of Neuroaesthetics – the link between art, the perception of beauty, and how this impacts wellbeing.

.

Creative expression, either self-done, or even as a viewer, appreciator, and part of an audience with a shared experience, can all lower inflammation, reduce stress hormones, expand joy, boosts neural flexibility, and reconnects You with self.

.

We are all Creators. No talent required. Just the space to express.

Do one creative thing today; draw, dance, bake, write, all with mindful intention and appreciation. See how this makes you feel.

.

Bloating isn’t “normal,” but it is super common, and can be super complex.

Bloating is not one thing; it’s dozens of possible mechanisms. This episode gently unpacks the multi-layered causes; how your food choices, digestion, gut bacteria, hormones, activity and stress, can all play a role.

.

This episode breaks down the complexities off bloating. I’ll share the most helpful strategies; just practical, realistic and easy to implement. Sadly no miracle cures here!

Day 6 of my Advent Series, is all about your “diet” .

.

Your Diet is simply the way you live; in alignment with your food & drink choices. It’s nourishment; deeply intertwined with your ever-changing needs.

.

Diet culture has hijacked the real definition of “diet.” Today is about reclaiming the word and creating your own definition – one based on your own physiology, needs, joy, and values.

.

This episode reframes the entire concept of ‘Diet’ to something intentional, deeply personal, and empowering. Learn to listen to what your body actually wants and what works for you.

.

I share how I have incorporated concepts of the commonly followed Diets, to create my own hybrid version that is most suited to me; a way eating and living that I thoroughly enjoy. You too can do the same! No rigidity. No restrictions. And certainly no trends.

They look festive. They taste nostalgic. But many Christmas favourites come wrapped with ultra-processing, additives and other hidden toxins. This isn’t just restricted to food, those Christmas smells from candles, perfumes and air fresheners… toxin loaded too.

They are cleverly engineered to bypass your body’s natural signals, and December is when they are everywhere.

Today’s episode breaks down what they actually do inside the gut, and simple strategies to minimise them without restriction.

This isn’t an episode to scare, but rather raise awareness.

In Day 5 of my Advent Series all about UPFs and Toxins, we cover:

- Why you should make every effort to avoid them

- How to spot them easily

- Simple swaps that don’t feel restrictive

- Ways to have a low-to-no UPF and minimally toxic Christmas!

Once you see them, you can’t un-see them. #IYKYK
