How Proximity Shapes Perception: An Ayurveda Full Moon Reflection on Stress, Boundaries & Self-Care

How Proximity Shapes Perception: An Ayurveda Full Moon Reflection on Stress, Boundaries & Self-Care

In this Full Moon New Year reflection, Nicholas explores how proximity shapes perception—and why what you keep close quietly determines how you feel, react, and move through the world. Drawing from Ayurveda, yoga, and lived experience, he unpacks how holidays, relationships, habits, and even old memories influence the nervous system and push us toward or away from balance.

This episode reframes boundaries as energy conservation (not defense), challenges pop-culture self-care, and explains why you’ll always return to what you’ve practiced most—especially under stress. If you’ve felt overwhelmed, reactive, or depleted, this conversation invites a simple but powerful inquiry: what am I holding close, and is it serving my well-being?
