How to Get in Touch with Your Body with Fasting & Ayurveda
Good People,
Today I had the pleasure of interviewing Heather Grzych, an Ayurvedic practitioner. Ayurveda is an ancient Indian medicine that has had huge impacts on her life and work. Heather is also the author of The Ayurvedic Guide to Fertility.
To get our conversation started, Heather shared her personal truth: she held on to all this pain and anger for the ways her father treated her. She detailed the events and thought processes that led up to her breakthrough in that moment, where during an argument she was able to disarm him and connect with him. With this, we shifted slightly to talk about the power of speaking truth in the face of negativity
Going deeper, Heather shares about her research and personal experiences with Ayurveda, what her fasting practice looks like and why she does it, and how women can naturally conceive a child through Ayurveda without having to go through heroic scenarios like surgery, implantation, or IVF.
This is a powerful conversation. So sit back, relax, and I’ll see you soon.
