In this episode, you're going to learn how Rasa healed from an autoimmune disease without medication, what simple dietary changes can help improve your health, why balancing hydration, sleep, and exercise is key to overall wellness, and practical ways to apply Ayurvedic principles to your daily life. You'll also discover the benefits of sunlight exposure for regulating your circadian rhythms and enhancing your mental health.

Rasa has been deeply studying nutrition and Ayurveda for over 7 years. She was diagnosed with a chronic, life-long illness at 3 years old. In her early teens, she became plant-based and began to focus heavily on her diet. At 14 years old, her doctors announced she was clear of the illness they initially thought would last a lifetime. Her interest in nutrition and its influence on health skyrocketed.

Always having a love for cooking, she attended Johnson & Wales private University, earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Culinary Nutrition. She has spent time travelling around India learning and experiencing Ayurvedic healing techniques such as panchakarma and marma therapy.
