Rabia Meghani on Managing Anxiety and Uncertainty with Ayurveda

Episode Summary

“Your body is vast consciousness. It’s not just one thing. And if you allow your body to be a container for how you're feeling then you can be like, “ok, there is anxiety in this body of mine, but there is also hope in this body of mine, and there is faith, and joy…. You’re holding space for a lot of things, but you are not one thing.” ~Rabia Meghani Join The OHMazing® Way podcast creator, producer and host, Beth Reese, PhD, E-RYT, RCYT, YACEP, and guest Rabia Meghani in a conversation about how to manage anxiety and uncertainty through Ayurveda.

Join The OHMazing® Way podcast creator, producer and host, Beth Reese, PhD, E-RYT, RCYT, YACEP, and guest Rabia Meghani in a conversation about how to manage anxiety and uncertainty through Ayurveda.

“If you start to feel that you are this one thing (ie, anxiety, illness), you start to live in this limited space. And it’s wild to think that it’s all purely from your mind. You create barriers—invisible barriers—just from your mind. And if you were to understand the barriers never existed, you can tap into that limitless potential of yours.” ~Rabia Meghani

In the first half of the podcast, Rabia and Beth discuss how we can reframe anxiety and uncertainty during times when life may occur highly stressful. Rabia also shares some of her life experiences that led her to focus on Ayurveda and yoga instead of pursuing a highly coveted masters degree in public and global health. In the second half, Rabia offers a meditation appropriate for most ages,and then offers tips for families to create grounding practices anytime and anywhere.
