The Vital Veda Podcast: Ayurveda | Holistic Health | Cosmic and Natural Law

An exciting area of modern science is exploring the connection between the gut and our brain. They are intimately connected. The gut-brain axis: The bi-directional communication pathway in us. There's plenty of evidence that stress and violence will negatively affect one's microbiome, mood, immunity and bodily functions. According to Ayurveda, 85%-99% of health concerns originate as digestive imbalance, known as "manda agni" The collective of micro-organisms that dominate the human body, the microbiome, play a very large role in gut health, mental health, and basically all biological functions. We are 90% bugs. Most of the cells in our body are microbial. We need to get more familiar with the microbes that dominate our gut.

Please educate yourself on the holistic and comprehensive science on what viruses actually are! Empower yourself with knowledge and the reality of the health implications relating to the Corona Virus. The emergency isn't the corona virus, it is the fear and panic of this pandemic, ignorance of microbiome and reality of true health risks. We've been indoctrinated with a fear paradigm around viruses, not based in science. The same happened with bird flu, swine flu, Ebola, measles and Zika. The hysteria being drummed up follows a well-worn pattern where the population is kept in a state of fear about microbes, so that drug companies can come to the rescue with yet another expensive (and potentially mandatory) drug or vaccine. ABOUT DR. JIMI WOLLUMBIN Whether he is presenting at the UN or at a village health co-operative in rural India, Jimi is always a highly engaging speaker, writer and educator. With 20+ years clinical experience and almost as much in community development, Jimi combines his deep knowledge of holistic medicine with a passion for social causes and world health. As the social entrepreneur that founded One Health Organisation in 2005, he has since steered it to become the largest holistic and integrative healthcare NGO in the world - having distributed roughly 9 metric tonnes of medicine to hundreds of thousands of disadvantaged communities across the globe. Jimi's private clients value his obvious passion for traditional medical practices and the way in which he combines aspects of the traditions of India, China, Tibet and Persia that continue to inspire him. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS The Human Virome - In addition to the pro-biome that exists in the gut, we also exist symbiotically with viruses and we have a virome as well. Loose the War Mentality against microbiome. Mind is King - panic and fear invites the disease that you are fearful of.

Experience the Power of Superior Quality Gem Stones One of the planet's most precious offerings to humanity. We are lucky to have interviewed literally the most experienced gem stone buyer who has bough more quality gem stones than anyone in the world today. Jay Boyle has a pleroma of knowledge and experience in the field of quality gem stones. Gem stones are used as remedies and medicine in the tradition of The Veda (the knowledge governing the unity of the laws of nature and human consciousness, of which yoga, meditation, AyurVeda and Jyotish (Vedic astrology) is derived. When worn over particular areas on the body in a particular way, quality gem stones have the potential to enhance or balance certain energies, natural expressions and physiological mechanisms in an individual and in the environment. In Ayurveda, gemstones are purified with certain herbs then calcified to ash, to be taken internally to help treat deep medical conditions. Gem stones are an integral part of Ayurveda and Jyotish (Vedic Astrology). The effects of wearing gemstones can be subtle for some, and very tangible for others. They certainly are potent little stones that profoundly influence our physiology! ABOUT JAY BOYLE & ASTROLOGICAL GEM  Astrological Gem takes their mission statement very seriously: To get the right gemstones to the right people - for the right purpose. To always do this with honesty, integrity, and with complete customer satisfaction. For the last 40 years, Astrological Gem has been serving the worldwide community of Vedic astrologers and their clients by providing top quality, natural gemstones for Jyotish and Ayurveda. Jay, travels internationally to purchase these gemstones at the source - often directly at the mines - so that he can acquire the world's best selection of vibrant, finely cut stones at the lowest prices possible. On these buying trips, Jay selects from such a vast and great quantity of stones. Because of this, he is able to find and select those exceptional 1-2% of stones that are Jyotish Quality and have a sweet, sattvic (pure) feel. He brings them to clients at prices that jewellers often pay. Jay is a Graduate-in-Residence Gemologist of the prestigious Gemological Institute of America with 43 years of experience in every area of the gem business. In addition to his impeccable professional qualifications, Jay's involvement with meditation and inner work has created an appreciation of the finer, more subtle aspects of selecting gemstones with that sweet, sattvic feel.

IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS What is a Doula - They play a significant role assisting women through the psychosomatic experience of birth. Why every single woman should do a doula training. It is the primal role of woman. Assisting at births is an important rite for one's womanhood, femininity and fulfilment. Obstetrician in latin = "to observe." Are they only observing or doing too much? The Role of the Partner (Mostly Men) In Birth Have we placed to much expectations on male partners? Are men actually fit for the job of assisting a birthing experience? Let alone asked to be the primary! support person in an experience they have no knowledge of, what so ever! Traditionally, birth has always been womens business. Men should were not to go anywhere near that. It is ridiculous to send anyone in a birthing room without good education and preparation.

Education is key to empowerment. You need to be open minded and have a little element of belief that birth can be something different to the medicalised traumatic event that has been showed to you on television. The post-natal hormonal orchestra that floods the mother brain. The Brain-Uterus Connection (Via the Ferguson reflex and more). The Vagina as the Seat as Consciousness.

Ture Fulfilment Your life can change in any moment. Yashoda's spontaneous introduction into Vedic Meditation (VM). Rapid healing from insomnia, depression and ADHD from VM. Guru / Shishya (Student) Relationship Fluctuating between various gurus and practices vs. maintaining a common thread and uniting all aspects of Yoga. Generally it is advised to only have one guru since it is better to stay on one path to get to a destination (enlightenment) rather then moving between various paths (since all the paths lead to the same outcome). Not mixing two different lineages, like a "fish milkshake," but layering them. Yashoda having two lineages and two gurus, which is unusual. Yashoda's 2 Main Gurus in her life: • Maharishi Thom Knoles - Like the sun, feeds you knowledge, corrects through knowledge. • Anand Mehrotra - Sharp like a sword that's cutting through you, calls your out, corrects your intellect, slaps in your face. Living with a Guru as a quantum leap in evolution. Vedic parenting. Observing Guru, nature and states of consciousness for evolution. Laksmi / Abundance & Affluence Living full value in life without "lack mentality". • Laksmi sister is Saraswati (knowledge). You can't have wealth and abundance without knowledge. • Choosing the higher value of behaviour over the lower value of behaviour. • Punya - our spiritual bank account. Fundamental of Nature: What You Give you Will Receive Experiment and play with the laws of nature. "You Deserve the best." You are worthy. Everything is energy. Whatever we give value to will have value. Embody fearlessness. Laksmi is a non-stop moving river. Sattva Yoga - Himalayan Tantra Radical aliveness. Using the whole body to come alive in this pranic level.
