Manage episode 477188754 series 3595493
What if doing less could help you feel more like yourself? In this episode, Ayurvedic practitioner and mom of two, Nidhi Pandya, shares simple ways to bring calm and clarity into your daily life.
She talks about how motherhood changes us—and how we can meet those changes with presence instead of pressure. From warm food and longer exhales to oil massages and evening routines, Nidhi gives practical tips to help you feel more grounded.
She also opens up about raising her daughters in New York City, going through a divorce, and creating a life that feels aligned.
