#260 Forgiveness: The Art of Making The Body Feel Safe Again with Dr. Vignesh Devraj MD (Ay)

In this episode, Dr. Vignesh Devraj moves beyond the moral ideas of being “nice” or “letting things go.” This conversation reframes forgiveness as a form of emotional and biological recovery. Drawing from Ayurveda, psychology, and lived clinical experience, the episode explores how unresolved emotional pain impacts immunity, inflammation, and healing, and why forgiveness is less about others and more about restoring inner balance.

Vata is responsible for Prana - the life energy, the nervous system - the master panel of our body, and our emotions. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that controlling Vata is the most difficult part of healing and recovery.
