In this episode Dr. Shivani Gupta talks about…

• Her own background and how she got into Ayurveda to heal her own self

• Discusses her supplement line Fusionary Formulas

And so much more..

Dr. Gupta's bio:

As a busy wife and mother of two, Dr. Gupta understands the challenges modern women face when it comes to putting their health and wellbeing first. Unfortunately for many women self-care has become a dirty word and yet another unrealistic expectation on our never-ending to-do list.

Dr. Gupta created her revolutionary Modern Ayurveda program and Fusionary Formulas to fuse east and west practices for self-care, digestion, stress reduction and metabolism. Her goal is to ensure no more women sacrifice their health for the life they deserve.

Success and self-care go hand in hand. The more you care for yourself, the happier you will be and less likely to reach for things that aren’t good for you. Self-care doesn’t need to be one more thing you add to your to-do list. Finding a few extra minutes each day can have a profound impact on health.

She is dedicated to sharing the healing properties of Ayurveda and bridging the gap between our hectic modern lives and applications of conscious living. As a renowned Ayuvedic leader her speaking topics range from organic pregnancy to the influence of Ayurveda on western medicine. Dr. Gupta’s previous speaking engagements include over 50 physician conferences, educational events and women’s symposiums across the U.S.
