Welcome to episode 71 of The Woman Warrior Podcast! Join your hosts Dr. Satyavani and Prajna Madhavi as they unpack how overuse, underuse, and misuse of the senses can impact your energy, relationships, eating habits, intimacy, spiritual growth, and overall health. From sex and food to pleasure, self-control, emotional awareness, and modern distractions, this episode brings ancient yogic wisdom into a real-world conversation women can actually apply.
This episode dives into the yogic principle of Brahmacharya and what it really means for the modern woman. While traditionally connected to celibacy and chastity, this conversation expands the concept into something much deeper: mastering the senses, preserving your energy, and becoming more intentional about what you consume physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
