Hey Ananga, so good to come together with you again for another

andanga, so good to come together with you again for another Slayer session. What would you like to talk about today?

Well, I was listening to your conversation with Carol Fogarty at Reducination Lounge and her sharing of how in touch she is with her body and how what she eats and what she does affects her mind and her body and how she's always careful with that she'd

her self. And she made a point which reminded me of something that I think it's helpful to share.

And the point she made was that she'd experimented with different diets and foods that she felt served her best.

And she tried raw foods and she said that sometimes she was aware that when she ate

raw food it gave her a sense of hardness in her tummy but when she ate things

like dull soups and easier to digest, warmer, more easily

assimilated nourishing foods, she had a sense of softness and nourishment on the inside of

her body that was just very easy to deal with and felt good to her.

So that reminded me of the lesson in Aireveda where different foods can actually increase our anxiety and it's not just the nutritional

component of the food but it's the nature of the food. So if our listeners haven't heard

us talk about this before then please go look at the website or listen to previous

podcasts and look up our discussions on IraVader if it's of interest to you.

One thing we've touched on is how when we're anxious anxiety is often provoked by a certain type which is called the Vata type and Vata is affected by things that are hard and cold and dry and rough.

And it's very literal.

So if we have a Vutter disturbance, which is making us suffer from anxiety,

and we're eating salads and raw foods.

If you look at those foods you'll see that they're cold and they're hard and they're rough.
