  • Finding Alignment with Ayurveda with Dr. Siva Mohan

    Finding Alignment with Ayurveda with Dr. Siva Mohan
    Sep 17 2025

    With an MD and background in neuroscience and behavior change, Dr. Siva Mohan believes in Ayurveda as a path of better understanding our lives, habits, and behavior—and of creating shifts that lead to a greater sense of well-being.

    In this conversation, Dr. Siva and host Tracee Stanley discuss Ayurveda as an energy-mapping system that impacts our neurobiology, how deeply listening to our emotional and energetic body builds Self awareness, skills for emotional well-being, and more.

    Workshop on Friday, October 24, 2025—Biohacking with Ayurveda with Dr. Siva, hosted by Tracee

    About our guest:

    Dr. Siva Mohan is a big picture person. An integrationist. A pattern seer.

    As a UN Social Affairs Officer and working globally with private clients for over 15 years, Dr. Siva realized that even educated, active people are missing the basics of wellness. Across cultures and continents, we are leading lives set up for chronic disease and discontentment.

    Siva's mission is to teach people to feel again; to be able to hear what their bodies and hearts are guiding them to shift.

    And then, to give them tools and approaches to accomplish those healthy shifts.

    With an MD, and background in behavior change and education, Siva presents an empowering East-West Mind-Body version of Ayurveda.

    She guides her audience to individualized wellness lifestyle with tools and approaches from Ayurveda, emotional wellness, and modern science.

    Wisdom of the Hive with Michelle Cassandra Johnson and Amy Burtaine
    Aug 28 2025
    "In times marked by turmoil and uncertainty, honeybees offer a powerful example of how to turn toward each other, to deeply commit to creating conditions for survival of all beings, and to build a future where all can thrive." —Michelle C. Johnson & Amy Burtaine

    Bees are life-giving. They are vital pollinators that support our food supply, and they are also teachers with healing and wisdom to share.

    In this episode, host Tracee Stanley sits down with coauthors of Wisdom of the Hive: What Honeybees Can Teach Us about Collective Wellbeing, Michelle Cassandra Johnson and Amy Burtaine, bee-lovers and bee-tenders, activists, and individuals deeply committed to healing work that supports bringing individuals, the collective, and our entire ecosystem back into balance.

    They discuss being drawn into the mysterious and sacred world of the bees, connecting with the bees and cultivating a non-extractive relationship, the deep lessons from the bees, and so much more.
