Read excerpt
Sisters, friends, it's time to slow down and heal. 🌾 In this episode, Salila takes you home to Kerala, where an entire month is set aside each monsoon season for one ancestral ritual: eating congee. Not the Chinese dish most Westerners picture. The original South Indian kanji, the word Portuguese traders carried into English centuries ago. Salila unpacks why your Agni (digestive fire) craves this predigested, cellular-hydrating bowl of comfort especially when you're feeling bloated, sluggish or

Perimenopause Misdiagnosed as Depression — Here's the Pattern. What Ayurveda says? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If I had a penny for every lovely woman who reached out saying, "My doctor wants me to put me on an antidepressant," I’d be a very rich woman. When "Devi" started waking up at 3:00 AM with a racing heart and night sweats, her doctor first told her it was just stress. On the second visit, she was handed a prescription for antidepressants.
