While we cannot diagnose anxiety or depression with a single blood test, modern biomarkers can reveal the physical disruptions that influence how we think, feel, and respond to stress. From micronutrient deficiencies to inflammation, your physiology silently shapes your emotional world.

Through the Ayurvedic lens of Vata imbalance and the foundational 3R Protocol, this episode shows how understanding your biomarkers can transform healing, resilience, and emotional clarity.

Episode Highlights:

• Why emotions have a physical foundation

• The key biomarkers linked to anxiety, low mood, burnout, and fatigue

• How sleep, HRV, inflammation, and nutrient reserves shape mental stability

• Why replenishing deficiencies often leads to emotional breakthroughs

• How to work with the body before diving into therapy or inner work

What makes Ayurveda unique in its treatment approach is its practical wisdom on the concept of Vata.

Modern science calls it the circadian rhythm, the internal clock that governs every function of our body. But centuries before this term existed, Ayurveda had already mapped this wisdom through Dinacharya, the rhythm of aligning our daily actions with nature’s cycles. In this episode, Dr. Vignesh Devraj reveals why true health depends not just on how long you sleep, but when you sleep. He explains how going against your body’s clock, staying up late, skipping meals, or waking at odd hours quietly disrupts hormones, digestion, and mental clarity. Learn how restoring this natural rhythm can awaken energy, focus, and longevity from within.

In today’s world, it’s easy to confuse fitness with health, but they’re not the same. Fitness is about strength, endurance, and performance, while health is the deeper harmony of your body, mind, and energy.
