In Ayurveda, digestion is never just about food, it's about how we process life itself. When our digestion is weak, the body feels heavy, the mind becomes clouded, and both physical toxins (ama) and mental toxins (mental ama) begin to accumulate.

In this episode, Colette explores how poor digestion affects not only our physical health but also our emotional wellbeing, clarity, and self-confidence. You'll learn how the gut-mind connection works in Ayurveda, why unprocessed emotions weigh just as heavily as undigested food, and what practices help restore balance.

We'll also look at how an Ayurvedic reset, including diet, awareness, and daily routine can help clear both physical and emotional heaviness, bringing you back to lightness, calm, and clarity.

What you'll learn in this episode:

  • How Ayurveda explains the gut-mind connection through the mano vaha srotas (the channel of the mind).

  • The role of the subdoshas, Sadhaka Pitta, Prana Vayu, and Tarpaka Kapha in processing emotions and experiences.

  • What mental ama is and how it impacts mood, memory, and self-confidence.

  • The emotional imprint of poor digestion, why heaviness, irritability, or brain fog often follow sluggish digestion.

  • How sattvic foods and routines promote clarity of mind while rajasic and tamasic influences create imbalance.

  • Practical Ayurvedic guidelines for preventing the build-up of mental ama, from mindful eating and circadian rhythm to tuning inward and protecting your senses.
