In this episode, Andrea is joined by Brett Aldrich for a timely and nourishing conversation about caring for ourselves as we move from late winter into early spring—both physically and emotionally.
Together, they explore Ayurvedic wisdom for this seasonal threshold, a time when heaviness lingers in the body while the urge to move, cleanse, and begin again quietly emerges. This is a season that asks for patience, gentleness, and steady rhythms rather than drastic change.
The conversation also gently acknowledges the current political and cultural climate—the tension, fatigue, and distraction many are feeling—and offers grounding perspectives on how to stay focused, embodied, and rooted in what we can control during uncertain and emotionally charged times.
This episode is an invitation to tend your nervous system, simplify your practices, and come back to what truly sustains you.
