In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with relationship coach and author Keith Spurgin to unpack what real connection actually looks like and why loneliness keeps rising.

A new year can feel hopeful and heavy at the same time. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana (filling in for Avik) sits down with spiritual teacher and transformation guide Ashmita Arora to explore a bold question: is there one root cause behind most human suffering, and one solution that keeps getting missed? This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck in repeating patterns, burnout, relationship strain, or self-pressure. Ashmita breaks down how attachment fuels overwhelm, and how detachment (especially in perception) can create real freedom, clarity, and peace. About the Guest: Ashmita Arora is a spiritual teacher, transformation guide, entrepreneur, and author. She is the founder of an intuitive practice and creator of Portal to Self, a transformational journey focused on clarity, release, and integration. Key Takeaways: Identify the attachment driving your stress (perfection, success, approval, control). Practice detachment by changing how you perceive the situation, not just the situation itself. Use meditation consistently to reconnect with your body’s signals of expansion vs contraction. Reframe “mistakes” by assigning new meaning and looking for the lesson. Ask before big choices: “Is this fear, guilt, or obligation?” How to Connect With the Guest: https://www.ashmitaarora.com/    If you’re in immediate crisis, contact local emergency services or your regional suicide prevention helpline.

When life feels overwhelming, we often push harder instead of listening inward. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Charu sits down with therapist and nature-based practitioner Mary Rothwell to explore what plants can teach us about thriving. This conversation is for anyone feeling stressed, emotionally drained, or stuck in people-pleasing patterns. You will learn practical, grounded ways to notice what you need, set healthier boundaries, and reconnect with your body and environment, starting with small moments of nature in daily life. About the Guest: Mary Rothwell is a licensed therapist, speaker, and podcast host with more than 35 years of mental health experience. She is also a Master Gardener and a certified forest therapy practitioner, and she has a book coming out called Nature Knows. Key Takeaways: Stop defaulting to “try harder” when you feel burnout; more effort can backfire, like overwatering a plant. Use your body as data: notice where tension sits and what actually helps you recover. Boundaries are not about shutting people out; they protect what you need to stay nourished. Start small with nature: a houseplant, a neighborhood tree, or five minutes outside counts. Practice “sense-based mindfulness”: breathe, then notice what you see, hear, smell, and feel. Healthy connection matters: like ecosystems, people thrive with support, not isolation.
