Summer Series Ep 6: Summer Self Care Using Ayurveda with Niika Quistgard

This week on the podcast, we talk to our favorite Ayurvedic expert, Niika Quistgard, all about how to use principles from Ayurveda to bring our bodies back into balance in the heat of summer.


She shares:


* How to adapt your lifestyle during pitta season--we get into how to approach your yoga practice, meditation, breathing techniques, and which foods to eat (and avoid) during Pitta season


* A few specific poses and practices that are calming for Pitta


* The one thing that's even more important than you dominant Ayurvedic constitution. (It's all about balance, baby!)


* What Niika means when she talks about taking "self-leadership" on your yoga mat and in your life


*BONUS: Enjoy the soothing sounds of nature throughout this interview as Niika is talking to us outdoors among some particularly melodious birds.
