  The Pitta Wall: What Happens When You Skip the One Thing That Grounds You

  Aug 11, 202615 min

  The Pitta Wall: What Happens When You Skip the One Thing That Grounds You Ever notice yourself getting irritable over nothing, feeling like there's never enough time, or hitting a wall of exhaustion right around this time of year? In Ayurveda, this is a classic sign of a Pitta imbalance and late August is prime time for it. In this episode, I get personal about hitting my own Pitta wall a few weeks ago: the quick anger, the time-scarcity feeling, and the realization that even though I'd been outside all summer, I hadn't been to the one place that actually grounds me on my favorite nature trail. I dig into the guilt so many of us carry around choosing solo restoration over family togetherness, why knowing your grounding practice isn't the same as protecting it, and what I'm changing heading into fall. In this episode: What a Pitta wall is and why late summer brings it on The physical and emotional signs of Pitta imbalance Andrea's own story of losing (and finding her way back to) her grounding practice The guilt of choosing solo time over family time — and why that tension matters Simple Ayurvedic practices to cool Pitta as the season shifts toward Vata Andrea's plan for protecting this practice going into fall Mentioned in this episode: Andrea's nature trail practice and 7-year relationship with the land The three pillars: movement, mindfulness, mother nature Wednesdays with her youngest son starting in September Connect with Andrea: andreaclaassen.com Subscribe to the newsletter for more on Ayurveda, strength training, and living seasonally Loved this episode?

  When You Stop Looking, You Start Feeling

  Aug 4, 202613 min

  Here's a draft for the show notes: Episode Title: Stop Looking, Start Feeling Peaceful Power Podcast Show Notes: This episode starts with cows. On a recent road trip to Colorado, my three year old was on the hunt for cows out the window. I pointed to some grazing on a distant hill — "Look, there are cows!" — while my husband pointed out the field of them right in front of us that I'd completely missed while scanning the horizon. It became the metaphor I couldn't shake for the rest of the trip, and for the week that followed. In this episode, I talk about: The cows story, and how often we look ahead for the "right" answer while missing what's already unfolding in front of us Why this idea landed so differently for me this week, after our family experienced the sudden loss of my five month old nephew, Mac The shift from looking for to feeling into — in gratitude, in presence, and in practice What I think yoga is actually for, underneath the poses — not performing your way toward some far-off state, but feeling your way into the one you're already in The question I keep asking myself: what's your hill, and what's actually right in front of you? This one is tender, honest, and a little more reflective than usual. I hope it meets you wherever you are this week.

  Rolodex Brain: Confessions From a Social Media Break

  Jul 28, 202627 min

  What I Learned From a Social Media Break (That No One Talks About) I didn't take a break from social media with some grand plan in mind. I took a break because I was tired. What I didn't expect was to find out how tired and how much of that tiredness had been hiding in plain sight. In this episode, I'm sharing what came up during my time away: the subtle overwhelm I didn't realize I was carrying, the constant rolodex of "what should I post next" spinning in the back of my brain, and the noise underneath the noise including AI-generated "women" selling perimenopausal women beauty standards that aren't even real. I also share a framework that's been rattling around in my head since I heard it in a recent webinar with my longtime teacher Tracee Stanley and her guest, author Shannon Algeo, on the real differences between real-world space and online space — and why our nervous systems know the difference even when we don't. We talk about: The overwhelm I didn't know I was carrying until it was gone Why Instagram sends me a "look what you're missing" email almost every day (sometimes two) and what that says about who these platforms are really built for What it's like to catch up with a friend when you genuinely don't know what they've been up to anymore How online spaces can quietly become an echo chamber, even when you don't realize you're standing inside one Why I notice more than ever who shows up consistently, and who I actually feel connected to Real world vs. online, through Shannon Algeo's framework: embodied vs. disembodied, synchronous vs. asynchronous, one-to-few vs. one-to-many, and the high bar of entry and exit in real life vs. the low bar online What I'm choosing to build instead: shared sacredness, embodiment, stillness, being slow to anger and quick to forgive, connection to nature and awe, and connection to our ancestors and transcendent self If you've ever wondered whether it's just you feeling the hum of low-grade overwhelm from being online, this one's for you.

  Doing Nothing Is Not Nothing

  Jul 21, 202616 min

  Before my son does his backfloat, his swim teacher asks him one question: song, count, or silence? He gets to choose every time and more often than not, at three years old, he chooses silence. In this episode, I connect that small, ordinary moment at the pool to something I hear constantly in my work: a woman doing everything "right" in her training program, still gaining weight, still exhausted, still being asked how many days of cardio are you getting when the real question no one's asking is whether her nervous system has any room left to give. We talk about: Why "more" is almost never the answer to a body that's already in overdraft The Ayurvedic concept of swasthavritta — daily rhythm in accordance with your own nature, not a universal script Why stillness (yin, restorative, rest) can feel more threatening than a hard workout to a stressed nervous system Why health was never just grams and cardio minutes — digestion, the senses, and the mind are part of the same system The question I want you to sit with this week: where are you defaulting to someone else's script when what you need is to pause and ask your own? If this episode resonates, Nourished & Rooted my 16-week 1:1 container weaving Ayurveda, subtle body practice, yoga nidra, and flower essences is built exactly for this kind of remembering.

  What 40 Days of Yoga Nidra Taught Me (That I Didn't Expect)

  Jul 14, 202626 min

  What 40 Days of Yoga Nidra Taught Me (That I Didn't Expect) I committed to 40 days of yoga nidra — no skipped days, no exceptions — as the final piece of my teacher training with Tracee Stanley and Dr. Chanti. I thought I was signing up for better sleep and a little more stillness. What I got was a quiet dismantling of habits I didn't even know I had. In this episode, I'm sharing what actually shifted after 40 straight days of subtle body practice — not the highlight-reel version, the real one. Why my favorite trail stopped being the only place I could exhale. Why I started saying no faster. How I learned to lead a yoga nidra without a script, and what that took to get to. And the strange, mundane ways a sadhana shows up in your life — right down to your coffee routine. In this episode: What yoga nidra and subtle body work actually are (and why they're different from a typical meditation practice) Why I stopped needing to "escape" into hours of nature to feel okay How the practice changed what I let in — media, mentors, my own pace The moment I could finally teach yoga nidra without a script Why clarity doesn't come from thinking harder — it comes from getting still enough to notice what's already there Mentioned in this episode: Tracee Stanley & Dr. Chanti's Yoga Nidra Teacher Training → https://www.traceestanley.com/courses Ready to get still enough to hear what's true for you? Nourished & Rooted is my 16-week 1:1 container for exactly this kind of work Ayurvedic consultation, subtle body practice, flower essences, and yoga nidra, built to help you hear your own inner wisdom instead of managing your to-do list. → https://andreaclaassen.com/nourishedandrooted 3 Day Pitta Challenge https://andreaclaassen.com/3-day-mini-cooldown-challenge Seasonal Strength https://andreaclaassen.com/seasonal-strength
