अपानः अधो गमनः
मासि मासि रजः विसर्जनम्।
मार्गावरणात् उत्क्रान्ति:
सव्यापथ्य जननम्।

These are verses from Ashtanga Hridaya which says when the pathway is Apana Vata is forced to move upward, and this upward movement creates disease and imbalance.
This is the exact classical foundation for explaining retrograde menstruation and the progression toward conditions like endometriosis.

There is a lot of noise around us today.
Everyone is saying different things about what is healthy, what is not..
Most of it is confusing, and many influencers say the exact opposite of what actually happens.

But when we consciously silence this noise, the truth becomes very clear.

Ayurveda explains things in a simple, logical way. Apana Vata is meant to move downward. This downward movement is how the body releases menstrual blood every month and keeps the system healthy.

If this downward flow is blocked, the body does not benefit from it.
The flow simply has no path..
This backward or upward movement is what leads to retrograde menstruation, and this is the starting point for conditions like endometriosis.

When we silence the noise, we return to what the Samhitas clearly teach:
Don’t go against nature.
Support the way the body is designed to work.

Love & light,

Waking up before sunrise is not just a habit.
but a healing practice…

Acharya Vagbhata says:
“ब्राह्मे मुहूर्त उत्तिष्ठेत् स्वास्थो रक्षार्थमायुषः”

One should rise during Brahma Muhurta to protect their health!

Love & light

Small traditions: deep wisdom!

My mom makes rice upma! It is basically sautéed cooked rice in ghee with tadka)- Yummmmm!!! It used to be a staple in my lunch box everyday in school!

Every little ritual in our kitchen once had a reason and a science! Don’t you think so?

Love & light,

If you are following me, there is one thing common in me and you for sure: We are ancient souls trapped in a modern body! We want to re-live the ancient soul life in modern times!

We happily follow the Sun’s rhythm as we go about our days…

We happily eat fresh, local, seasonal foods as much as we can…

We happily go to gym to build those muscles our ancient souls did naturally as part of their normal life!

We happily spend enough time at a park to be in nature remembering our ancient days…

We happily remove our slippers and walk barefoot on sand, grass and all natural surfaces to connect to earth more…

Drop a Hi5, dear fellow ancient soul! 🙋‍♀️

If Elaine... being someone who takes too many flights across the world in very short intervals, works multiple shifts, works round the clock, could achieve so much in terms of her health - reduced cholesterol, prediabetes and lost 10 kgs and a lot of inches, all in a matter of just 3 months, what's your excuse?

Before we had IVF, IUI and hormonal treatments, how did people conceive and delivered healthy babies naturally?

The secret is simple: They all followed an Ayurvedic lifestyle and lived close to nature,
they followed the rhythm of the sun,
ate simple natural home-cooked food,
did enough physical labour (without the need for gyms), consumed natural herbal formulations as supplements,
and led a simple happy life!

To know more about our 3-6 month Ayurvedic conception program, DM me!

Ayurveda teaches that marriage and intimacy,
aligned with nature and Dharma,
strengthen body and mind.

Ignore it, and you weaken not just yourself,
but the bond you share.

Share this post with your partner
for a healthy married and sexual life.

Here’s what actually helps 👇

1. Prioritize connection: even if it’s just 10 minutes a day together, instead of Netflix & chilling, do some activity together! Cook together, go for a walk together, etc

2. Talk about it: not blaming, but understanding what’s stopping intimacy.

3. Create space: schedule rest, slow evenings, or short getaways; energy and desire need calm.

4. Ask for support: whether it’s from your doctor, counselor, or our Garbini Circle group (a WhatsApp group we have created for our new mothers & conception patients to support, motivate & connect), don’t carry it alone.

Healing needs both guidance and presence.
Also, if you really love/ want something, you will make time for it!

Love & light,

Recently, I went with a friend to a supermarket. He was flying to India and picking up things to gift his friends and family from Dubai. One thing that surprised me, he was buying boxes of Panadol like they were chocolates.
When I asked why, he said, “It’s always good to stock up: Panadol from Dubai works better!”

It made me think, people have started treating medicines like everyday essentials.
We are living in a time of over-medication, where popping a pill feels easier than addressing the cause.
Pain, fever, fatigue, everything has a tablet.

But health isn’t built that way. Health is built when you stop depending on medicine for every little thing.

Love & light,
