What if feeling better isn’t always about adding more — but about slowing down, paying attention and getting to know yourself again?
In this episode of The Health Review, I’m joined by Anita Kaushal, co-founder of MAULI RITUALS, for a conversation about Ayurveda, self-compassion, grief, ritual and what it means to live in a way that actually suits you.
Anita shares how Ayurveda has been part of her family life for generations, and how the loss of her daughter became part of the story behind MAULI RITUALS.
She speaks very openly about grief, self-care and the realisation that looking after yourself isn’t selfish — it can help you show up better for the people you love.
We also talk about Ayurvedic ideas around mind-body types, daily routines, meditation, movement, food, self-massage and the importance of noticing how your own body responds rather than blindly following every new wellness trend.
But this conversation goes far beyond rituals. Anita talks about why so many of us struggle to sit with ourselves, why we can lose touch with who we really are, and why slowing down can sometimes be the first step towards feeling more grounded.
We also explore the idea at the heart of her work: “Don’t be the new you, be the true you.”
A warm conversation about ancient wisdom, modern life and learning to trust yourself a little more.

Our phones are rarely more than a few feet away from us. We wake up to notifications, spend much of the day moving between screens and increasingly turn to AI not only for information, but for advice, decisions and even emotional support. So what is all of this actually doing to our brains?
What if improving your health isn’t always about adding another supplement, protocol or wellness habit — but removing some of the things getting in the way?
What can ancient wisdom teach us about living well in the modern world?
What can therapy teach us about the patterns we keep repeating, the way we speak to ourselves and what happens when old wounds show up in our relationships?
What if your digestive issues, hormonal symptoms, skin problems, brain fog and persistent fatigue are not separate problems — but part of a much bigger picture?
