There is a quiet intelligence moving through your body at all times, carrying nourishment, clearing waste, transmitting information, and sustaining life itself.

In Ayurveda, this movement is understood through the concept of srotas—the channels of the body.

Today, Sasha and Erin explore the five types of flow that can exist within the srotas: normal (or balanced), excessive, deficient, blocked, or flow-out.

Healing is not just about what you put into the body—it’s about how well everything is able to move, and be held. As is the vessel, so is what may be given. In other words: The strength of the vessel determines the blessing it can receive.
