from The Mindful Living
In this enlightening episode of The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana sits down with Victor Briere, an Ayurvedic teacher and co-founder of the International Institute of Ayurveda. They explore the Ayurvedic approach to healing blood sugar imbalances, weight gain, and diabetes, contrasting it with modern medicine’s quick-fix solutions.
