Why there needs to be less intense focus on sexuality. How kama/pleasure is one of the four aims of life. The importance of bringing dharma into sexuality. How do we become spiritually shameless.

Board certified internist and Ayurvedic practitioner Dr. Nisha Khanna takes an inspirational, layered, and modern approach to medicine. In her blended practice, Nisha incorporates traditional western medicine, offering telemedicine to patients, as well as mind-body-spirit treatments plans in which she incorporates Ayurveda and other ancient modalities. She often takes a look at the physical ailments and then dives deeper by considering the emotional, mental, and spiritual components. This allows for the discovery of unresolved trauma and a better understanding of the roots of manifesting disease. In her illuminating conversation with Shrankhla, Nisha points out the ways Ayurveda can offer us illuminating feedback on our health, the questions we can all ask about ourselves, and how to find the true roots to a wellness issue.

The dhatus are the tissues of the body. Dhatu translates to ‘that which holds together’ because the dhatus/tissues support the body and give it shape, holding it together. The dhatus are made from and nourished by the food we eat. There are 7 dhatus or tissues in the body according to Ayurveda and in this episode, Colette explains the fascinating tissue nutrition system and how the nutrition is a step-by-step process of nourishment from the gross to the subtlest dhatu which is our reproductive tissue.
The seven tissues or dhatus in the body are:
Rasa - plasma/serum/lymph Rakta - blood, the red blood cells Mamsa - muscle tissue Meda - adipose tissue or fat tissue Asthi - bones & cartilage Majja - bone marrow, connective tissue, nerve tissue Sukra/Artava - male (sukra) and female (artava) reproductive tissueContact Colette via email [email protected]
