As a mother, a healer, and someone who’s studied the body in both Western medicine and ancient Eastern wisdom, I’ve learned this: the gut never lies.

It speaks softly at first, a little bloating here, a restless night there, but when we ignore its signals, it gets louder. Especially in the summer, when the outer heat stokes our inner fire, our agni.

Through years of medical training, teaching yoga, and raising a family with Ayurveda at the center of our home, I’ve come to see how powerful this season can be for healing or imbalance. And it all begins with digestion.

In this week’s piece, I want to take you deeper into what happens inside your body during July. I’ll show you how Ayurveda and modern science align on gut health, and how a few simple rituals can bring you back into balance with your digestion, your energy, and your clarity.

Let’s tune in to what your gut is trying to tell you. It knows the season.
