185 Ancient Wisdom, Modern Needs - Ayurveda, Regulation & Learning with Anuradha Gupta

Jul 02, 2025
I am joined by Ayurvedic practitioner Anuradha Gupta in this episode to look at how Ayurveda can support emotional regulation, and learning of neurodivergent children and their caregivers.
 
We talk about:
 
  • What doshas and gunas really are, and how they shape your child’s emotions, attention, and learning
  • The Ayurvedic principle of chatushpad and why a child’s progress is inseparable from a parent’s wellbeing
  • Strategies for Vata, Pitta, and Kapha imbalances in autistic and non-speaking children
  • How to regulate when breathwork isn’t possible, and why co-regulation matters more than ever
  • Why honoring your child’s natural tendencies isn’t permissive parenting—it’s transformational
