It’s Not Just What You Do — It’s When You Do It: The Daily Rhythm That Shapes Your Health
Have you ever felt like you're doing all the “right” things — eating healthy, moving your body, trying to rest — but still end the day feeling tired, bloated, and off balance? You’re not alone. And you’re definitely not doing anything wrong.
In this episode, we explore one of the most overlooked but powerful truths in both Ayurveda and modern science: it’s not just what you do — it’s when you do it.
You’ll learn:
- How your daily schedule could be silently draining your energy, disrupting your digestion, and throwing your mood off track
- Why timing matters just as much as nutrition, movement, and sleep — and how Ayurveda mapped this out thousands of years ago through the dosha clock
- What modern studies reveal about circadian rhythms, gut health, metabolism, and even weight gain
- Practical shifts you can start today to feel more grounded, energised, and in sync with yourself
Plus, I’ll share the story of my client Rupee, who transformed her energy and lost 8kg — without dieting — by changing one simple habit.
If you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed, this episode will help you understand why—and what to do next. It’s time to stop swimming upstream and start flowing with your body’s natural rhythm.
