60 - Jody Vassallo: Loneliness Through The Lens Of Ayurveda.
Today Jody ponders how the space element relates to loneliness. In Ayurveda the elements of air and space (ether) combine to create the vata dosha. Although we can clearly see and feel the elements of air, earth, water and fire, space is a little different.
Space or too much space between us and others equates to loneliness, fear of too much space leads to overshopping, overeating and clutter in our homes. We know space by feeling it.
Jody touches on each of the doshas and how they may deal with feelings of loneliness and why those feelings may feel louder in menopause.
