Fall Into Balance: Seasonal & Emotional Cleansing with Ayurveda

As the leaves fall, we’re invited to release too. In this episode, we explore how to cleanse and ground through Ayurveda’s fall wisdom—balancing body and mind with nourishing foods, self-care rituals, and emotional release practices to prepare for the calm and stillness of winter.

Fall is nature’s reminder that letting go is part of growth. In Ayurveda, this season marks the transition from Pitta (fire) to Vata (air and ether) — a time to release excess heat, slow down, and create warmth and grounding in your life.

In this episode of Zen and Tonic: Wellness Unfiltered, we'll discuss how to align with autumn through Ayurvedic principles, emotional cleansing, and gentle self-care. You’ll discover what to eat, what routines to bring in, and how to emotionally reset for a balanced transition into winter.
