Today on the podcast, Brittni and Rita explore the Ayurvedic concept of prajnaparadha — or “crimes against wisdom” — which Ayurveda identifies as one of the primary causes of dis-ease. Together, they discuss why it’s such a deeply human experience to make choices that go against our inner knowing, and how we can stay curious, compassionate, and honest while reflecting on our own habits and patterns.

Highlights:

• Why Ayurveda considers “crimes against wisdom” one of the primary causes of dis-ease.
• The humanness of “bad habits” and why we all have them
• The difference between supportive self-care and trying to get Ayurveda “perfect”
• The connection between people pleasing, rigidity, and disconnection from our inner knowing
• How to bring more softness, humor, and self-compassion into our self-conversations
