Your host
Natalie Chaponnel
I struggled with digestive issues and related problems for a great part of my life and tried everything I could think of to find a solution. Having little success with most of these remedies, I eventually reached an all-time low! Just as my symptoms were becoming untenable I discovered the power of Ayurveda and Yoga as a whole system of true health. As a Yoga teacher I was already dedicated to a daily practice, however, when I combined my practice with the wisdom of Ayurveda I finally began to heal my digestion, and my symptoms began to disappear. I’m passionate about sharing this wisdom with others so they can discover what true health really is, and the vitality and freedom that is available to you.
