Ayurvedic wellness coach Nandini Austin joins us with a fresh, accessible take on ancient practices, helping modern families feel healthier, more energized, and more connected at the table.
Raised in London with Mauritian roots and a lifelong exposure to Ayurveda, Nandini explains why digestion is the foundation of well-being, how to understand your unique dosha, and which simple daily rituals support balance for both parents and kids.
