Ep 23 - An Introvert’s Ayurvedic Guide to the End of the Year
Manage episode 519389685 series 3664774
Feeling the pull to slow down while the world speeds up?
In this episode, I share how introverts and sensitive souls can navigate the end-of-year season with more peace, groundedness, and intention — using Ayurveda’s timeless tools for nourishment & rest.
As the year begins to wind down, the world around us tends to speed up — parties, deadlines, and a swirl of activity pulling us outward. Yet, nature — and often our inner world — call for stillness, reflection, and warmth.
In this episode, we explore the paradox of being an introvert (or simply a sensitive soul) in an extroverted season, and how Ayurveda invites us to meet this threshold with grace, nourishment, and truthfulness.
You’ll learn:
🌙 Why this time of year naturally calls for inward reflection — and how to honor that pull
🔥 What Ayurveda recommends for the winter season (nourishment, coziness, intimacy, and truthfulness)
🪞How to work with Vata energy and reverse the momentum of anxiety or overactivity
💬 The importance of saying truthful “yeses” — and peaceful “nos”
💗 How to create sacred pauses and design a more harmonious, heart-led season
💌 Why solitude and depth might be your greatest sources of connection
Whether you identify as an introvert, an empath, or simply someone craving more peace at the end of the year — this episode will help you soften into the wisdom of the season.
