Ayurveda is so fascinating. The last time Dr. Vignesh Devraj (Director of Sitaram Beach Retreat, and host of the podcast 'Ayurvedic Healing & Beyond') was on the podcast, he had talked about ayurveda in relation to good digestion. This time around, he's back joining Ashdin on a discussion about ayurveda and sexual health. They discuss what vitality really means, what the word 'ojas' means in ayurveda, how we can improve and boost our vitality, telling a person's health by looking into their eyes, foods that are 'sticky' and what that means, and lots more. Tune in for an amazing conversation.
