  • What is a nāḍi assessment in Ayurveda?

    "What is a nāḍi" (long A, and hard D sound) is an educational podcast and you will hear the part of a live session where Monica Groover (Ayurveda Practitioner) was teaching the art of nāḍi assessment using the Nārāyaṇa system of nāḍi that she learned and assimilated from her teachers, research and her Guru. A nāḍi is an energetic channel or network of channels in your many bodies that vibrates at a frequency that can be felt by some spiritual, yogic, and Ayurveda practitioners.

    We have a vast energetic network of nāḍis in our astral body.
    Ayurveda Practitioners check a person's nadi in order to find out the imbalance. As an Ayurveda practitioner myself, I may check their nadi. Nadi tells me everything. What is this Nadi? It is an energetic channel--a network within our body- a system that reverberates in all our bodies. Let's learn more in this podcast taken from an actual class where I was teaching level 1 Narayana nadi system to my students. - Podcast by Monica B Groover, author of Essential Guide to Ayurveda, Ayurveda and the Feminine.

  • In the pursuit of Happiness?

    Recently I went to India and was so amazed and bowled over by the lovely people, amazing food, amazing customer service, and how much better everything was. I had the best time. However, I did notice that some people-especially younger people there are so Westernized, and pursuing "things". Better phone, great house, lovely car--that seems to be the mantra. So I thought wow that's a great topic to discuss. How do we become happy and live our best life? Indian and Indian Vedic scriptures can teach the entire world about the pursuit of happiness. How do we become happy--Vedic perspective. ...

  • Meditation is NOT just breathing......

    Meditation is not just breathing. Its not just being present. Its not just mindfulness. Its not just relaxing. Its SO MUCH more than that. Manasika meditation is when you go to divine or holy places, mentally. We will understand the difference between all these and more. If you are new to meditation, I will lead you a mock meditation on bread. How to make bread. Then, we will take the principles of that mock meditation and go to Himalayas where river Ganga is running full steam ahead and will invoke her. Enjoy,

  • Why do Genz and Millenials hate MILK?

    Milk was the miracle food for America. The USA was milk making machine. We made so much milk and who would drink this milk--it was even distributed free as cheese to those on welfare. What happened? Where did it all go wrong? Why does everyone you know in the Millenial and GenZ-one if four-lactose intolerant? Why do people prefer alternative beverages like almond milk, coconut milk, soymilk, or oatmilk? How did an entire generation become sensitive to lactose? Makes you wonder. Here's food for thought from an Ayurvedic Perspective. (Note--this podcast is neither an endorsement nor a critique--it is simply a way-a new prospective-a Vedic and spiritual prospective into this idea of how and why Milk became eew for an entire generation of American Kids)

  • Water is a Conduit for energy-A vedic perspective on Water.

    Water is a conduit. It can be empowered the power of air, water, fire, mantra- intention. We can leave a covered glass jar of water in and it becomes agneya--filled with heat of water and will be good to warm us and for digestion. Water can be left out in a covered glass jar in the moonlight-and it will become cooling for the body and will calm the mind. In fact, this is how we make Sun Tea or moon tea. Physically water not only nourishes us but cleanses us -good hygiene but also energertically. Urine, sweat and lymphatic fluid--are a cleansing action of water. In women, the menstrual blood is cleansing not just the unfertilized cell, and lining but all the stress we have accumulated over the month--that is sticking to our body and tissues--it is all being let out--by blood-which is a manifestation of water and fire. Each body of water has a spirit guide--when we contaminate the ocean, river or water, we overfish-there are karmic consequences for the whole society. This podcast generally dives into all that and more.....

  • What is hell (Naraka)

    Did you know that hell also has a judicial branch and legislative branch running for the beings who broke the rules of the universe? Technically it's not hell--its a system of realms with 28 hellish planets. When such persons die, they are taken by the police/constable of the chief court system that has authority over our planet Earth. The soul is taken to the court in the hellish realm/planet where the defense and criminal lawyer team is presided over by Citragupta and his team of millions. The justice-dharmaraj Yamaraja is the head of the court system and his staff/children are legislators and keep records. There are scary beings-sometimes hired from asuras- to do the dirty work of giving punishments in these hellish planets/realms

  • Mala (waste) of the body and mind

    What goes in must go out. A conversation about your poop, fart, sweat, pee--all are on the table when you go to visit an Ayurveda Practitioner. Even the menstrual blood -is not off the table. I also talk about mala (waste) of the mind that we never address. We collect stuff people--stuff that sticks to our body--stuff that comes from our mind and our stress. A short and sweet podcast about how to tackle this--Ayurvedic perspective from Essential Guide to Ayurveda Part 1. Art generated by Bing Image Generator.
