Is it a coincidence that I'm 28 and this is episode number 28??? Finally tried to put unexplainable feelings about growing up into words - there is a little peace in empathy and acceptance.
A quick check-in to say hello! if you're new to this channel, Within You is all about introspection. As someone who lost my way in 2024, go on and listen to this episode to see what changed it all :) Most times, it's the little things, isn't it?
In this episode of "Why we do what we do", I'm gonna be talking about the Holy Basil or Tulsi leaf, which is an integral element of many rituals in Hinduism.
"Why do we add it? What are the benefits of this leaf?" These questions are answered in this very episode.
"Why We Do What We Do" is a series of episodes dedicated to explaining some old superstitions. These are potential explanations for some age-old superstitions, and in this series, I aim to understand the logic behind them.
In this episode, I will talk about why we weren't allowed to cut our nails after sundown. Hope you like this new series!
We all do it, every single day without fail, and yet do we actually give it much thought? Eating is a fundamental process of life and in this episode, I've peeled the layers like an onion. So, get cozy to learn more about the 5Ws and 1H of eating.
If you haven't watched it already check out "Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones" on Netflix!
I think I've said "the golden rule" 3 times in this episode, but they're all golden rules when it comes to Ayurveda! Join me on this episode as I discuss the science behind hay fever this spring season and the easy Ayurvedic remedies that YOU can incorporate today.

A one of a kind episode where I discuss my views on God (the first of many to come). Join me on this episode as I talk about godliness in our day-to-day life, not our typical worship kind of things, but the things we engage in every day. I talk about godliness in sex and self-care in this piece and I hope you enjoy it!
Disclaimer: The thoughts expressed in this episode are subjective to my experiences and exposures.
In this episode, I reflect on the ways we love, and how loving itself evolves with every new relationship.
Inspired by Deepak Chopra's "Path to Love", a spiritual take on love.
This episode is dedicated to all those who love, who love with their heart and soul.
Highly recommend reading The Path to Love by Deepak Chopra for a spiritual take on love.
I've been hearing a lot of people in their late twenties struggling to settle down/ find a partner. Are we doing this right? Is there a right way to do it? Is patience really a virtue?
In this episode, I share my experiences of how I started therapy and the importance of keeping your mental health in check. Because life happens, and if we can make it just a little easier for us, why not? Psychologists are an integral part of society and they are doing some good work out there. I dedicate this episode to my therapist :)
Another little reflection piece where I talk about how we tend to change ourselves to fit society's expectations, whilst neglecting our true selves. I hope you pause and connect with your most authentic self - show up for you.
In lieu of the new year, I thought I'd share some of the emotional fears that I had to overcome, or still overcoming at this very moment. The fear that I addressed in this episode is the fear of becoming someone else when we are in love. I talk about attachment styles and how it shapes our adult relationships. Have a listen and stay tuned for more!

This episode is my most recent reflection piece, exploring my perspective on relationships.
This is why choice is beautiful. You have autonomy over your own choices (where you can choose not to do something), and develop respect for your partner's choices. Relationships don't feel like a chore then, it feels empowering.
The sex ed we needed in school.
Welcome to the spiritual side of Within You. In this episode, I explore the concept of liberation (mukthi, moksha, bodhi etc) and ways to break free from some forms of attachment. I have some resources below to supplement your learning:

The twenties are all about reality checks. This one hit hard. Not a rant, just a dissection.
Tune in to listen to my experience with Molly, my first ever rescue dog. In this episode, I talk more about our experience together thus far, some tips before considering adopting a rescue, and of course the ways in which my furry little friend has helped me heaps <3
