099: Ancient Wisdom to Upgrade Modern Health ft. Mona Sharma

In this episode of the Health Upgrade Podcast, we talk with nutritionist Mona Sharma about her inspiring journey from the corporate world to holistic health. She opens up about her personal health struggles in her twenties, including heart palpitations and surgeries, which led her to explore Ayurveda, yoga, and meditation, some of the most revered ancient healing tools known to us. Through this, she learned how mental and physical health are deeply connected and how nutrition and lifestyle choices can transform overall well-being.

Mona explains the importance of the nervous system in healing, showing how shifting from stress mode (fight-or-flight) to a relaxed state can help the body recover. She shares simple but powerful tips on nutrition, hydration, breathwork, and movement to support better health. The episode also touches on emotional release, the power of community, and how our thoughts and mindfulness impact our well-being.

If you want to improve your health and feel more balanced, this episode is packed with practical insights.

Tune in to learn how to nourish your body, connect with yourself, and live a healthier, more fulfilling life!
