Struggling to Switch Off? These 5 Ayurvedic Tips Might Help

Why is it so hard to relax, even when the day ends? You’ve ticked off your to-do list, the house is quiet, yet your mind is still racing. This episode explores why relaxing isn’t just about willpower or mindset — it’s a physiological shift. You’ll learn how your nervous system responds to stress and why your body might still be stuck in “go mode” long after the external busyness has ended.

We’ll then look at five key Ayurvedic insights that can help you unwind — including the role of the gunas (the qualities of the mind), the stress response of each dosha, the power of daily routine (Dinacharya), and how food and evening rituals can support your body in softening and settling. Each shift is gentle, realistic, and designed to meet you where you are — no overhaul required.

Whether you’re feeling wired at bedtime or just craving a calmer pace, this episode will offer a grounded, compassionate path forward. Tune in for practical tools, reflective questions, and soothing perspective from the wisdom of Ayurveda.
