Episode 406: Agni and Ayurveda: More Than Digestion with Vaidya Princy Prasad

Colette is joined by Ayurvedic doctor and educator Vaidya Princy Prasad for a deeper exploration of Agni, the inner fire that fuels far more than just digestion. While Agni is often associated with metabolism, its influence extends into immunity, hormonal balance, emotional clarity, and overall vitality.

In this conversation, they discuss the following:

  • What Agni really is and why it’s central to vibrant health and ojas

  • The different types of Agni and various levels of action

  • Signs of optimal (sama) Agni and what happens when it’s imbalanced

  • The types of impaired Agni: Vishama, Tikshna and Manda

  • How Agni influences key hormones 

  • Practical Ayurvedic tips to kindle and sustain a balanced Agni

  • Why seasonal cleansing is vital for resetting Agni
