Numerous uplifting rituals were present in Mira's life from childhood, but it was over the last decade that she began understanding how Ayurveda was connected to all of this, and it was this 'toolkit' of practices that allowed Mira to continue to feel nourished in challenging periods in her life. </p><p><br></p><p>We explore the importance of simplicity in constructing a healthy lifestyle, living according to our digestive fire and the natural world, how Ayurveda goes hand and hand with yoga, and the benefits of reflective journaling. </p><p><br></p><p>Mira and I also discuss her additional projects to Prajna, including her vegetarian cookbook Saffron Soul and her Chai Tea business Chai by Mira. </p><p><br></p><p>We really hope you enjoy this episode! </p><p><br></p><p>Follow my Journey:&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/healingwithtorzi/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.instagram.com/healingwithtorzi/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Find Mira: </p><p><br></p><p>Website - <a href=\" https://miramanek.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> https://miramanek.com</a></p><p>Instagram - <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/miramanek/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.instagram.com/miramanek/</a></p><p>Prajna (Book) - <a href=\"https://www.waterstones.com/book/prajna/mira-manek/9781472267702\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.waterstones.com/book/prajna/mira-manek/9781472267702</a></p><p>Saffron Soul (Book) - <a href=\"https://www.waterstones.com/book/saffron-soul/mira-manek/9781911127185\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.waterstones.com/book/saffron-soul/mira-manek/9781911127185</a></p><p>Chai By Mira - <a href=\"https://chaibymira.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://chaibymira.com</a></p><p><br></p><p>*This episode was recorded remotely, so I do apologise for any audio issues!</p>","author_name":"Torzi Robinson"}
