5. 0:13>> Let's start from the before and after
6. 0:15photos. I never actually took photos of
7. 0:18my scalp until I noticed that my hair
8. 0:20started growing. Around 10 years ago or
9. 0:23so, I noticed that my hair was a bit
10. 0:25sparse in my parting specifically. Now,
11. 0:28cuz I have very dark hair and lighter
12. 0:30skin, the contrast is very obvious. So,
13. 0:33I felt like it was very noticeable. I
14. 0:36tried various things to try to improve
15. 0:38it. I tried oiling my scalp. I tried
16. 0:42serums and things like that. And the
17. 0:44oiling was really nice, but it did not
18. 0:46actually grow any hair. Now, fast
19. 0:48forward many years and I had my facial
20. 0:50symmetry journey. That honestly taught
21. 0:53me so much about shifting the body in a
22. 0:56way that feels sustainable and healthy
23. 0:58and quite effortless, honestly. And when
24. 1:01about that, I understood the principles
25. 1:04of neutrality, surrender, working with
26. 1:07the body, and having a strong intention
27. 1:09for what I wanted. At that point, I just
28. 1:12decided, like, you know, I have full
29. 1:14hair. Like, my hair is this. Not from a
30. 1:17place of delusion or ego, but just from
31. 1:20a place of knowing what this reality
32. 1:22really is and what my body is, which is
33. 1:24just a form of light that I'm
34. 1:27interpreting with my senses. And
35. 1:29honestly, I just completely forgot about
36. 1:30my desire. Then, a year and a half ago,
37. 1:32I found Ayurveda, which I will forever
38. 1:35be grateful for.
39. 1:37It was honestly life-changing. And that
40. 1:39actually Ayurveda is what led me to
41. 1:42research Vedic philosophy, too. So, it's
42. 1:44almost like I was supposed to find it at
43. 1:46that time, which is another reason that
44. 1:48you shouldn't stress about how you get
45. 1:50your desires. It's always going to
46. 1:52unfold on your path in the most perfect
47. 1:55way for you, in a way that will aid
48. 1:57other areas of your life, too. So, I
49. 1:59found Ayurveda. I learned that my body
50. 2:01was extremely out of balance. So, what
51. 2:04Ayurveda teaches is that we all have a
52. 2:06combination of doshas in the body. Vata,
53. 2:09which is air, pitta, which is fire, and
54. 2:11then kapha, which is water. Now, these
55. 2:13elements are all supposed to be very
56. 2:15balanced in the body.
57. 2:17Remember, the body is a reflection of
58. 2:19the cosmos, and the cosmos is always
59. 2:21trying to maintain equilibrium and
60. 2:23balance. And our bodies also want to do
61. 2:25the same if they're going to thrive as
62. 2:27best as they can. When we come into this
63. 2:29earth, we tend to have one or two
64. 2:31elements of our body which are more
65. 2:34prominent than the others. So, for me,
66. 2:36my prominent elements were vata and
67. 2:38pitta dosha. And some of the things that
68. 2:40you do in your lifestyle can aggravate
69. 2:43those further. So, it could lead to you
70. 2:45becoming more imbalanced, which then
71. 2:47shows up in your body as various
72. 2:49ailments, feeling like you don't look as
73. 2:51good. You can see it especially in like
74. 2:53the skin, the hair, and the eyes, I've
75. 2:55noticed. When I learned about that, I
76. 2:57started going on the protocol, which was
77. 2:59quite intense at first. I adapted my
78. 3:02lifestyle, the things I was eating. I
79. 3:04was taking various herbal supplements.
80. 3:06One main thing I would say really,
81. 3:08really like stuck with me, and I think
82. 3:10everyone needs to know, is the power of
83. 3:13rest and slowing down. Especially if
84. 3:15you're a woman and you're trying to
85. 3:16increase your beauty and your glow and
86. 3:18your radiance,
87. 3:20your body needs adequate rest and
88. 3:22slowing down, mentally, physically. You
89. 3:26need to have overflow of available
90. 3:27energy to send for that purpose. Because
91. 3:31otherwise, your body is only using
92. 3:32energy for survival. Now, when you teach
93. 3:35your body like, "Okay, you don't have to
94. 3:36just survive, you can thrive," it sends
95. 3:39resources to producing positive shifts
96. 3:42in your body for your health and your
97. 3:44beauty. So, after a while of the
98. 3:46intensity, I kind of dialed it down to a
99. 3:48more simple protocol that's more
100. 3:50sustainable in my daily life. I do not
101. 3:52by any means live a perfect Ayurvedic
102. 3:54lifestyle, but I do my best. I've
103. 3:56learned the things that aggravate me the
104. 3:58most and I stay away from them. And I
105. 4:00learn about the things that nourish me
106. 4:02most and I incorporate more of them into
107. 4:04my life. And at some point towards the
108. 4:05end of last year, I started noticing
109. 4:07like, "Oh, hey, my hair's actually
110. 4:09growing in. Like, I don't actually see
111. 4:10as much of my scalp as I as I used to."
112. 4:13All of the things I was doing for my
113. 4:15body chose to reflect on my hair. I also
114. 4:17changed the oils I was using to
115. 4:20Ayurvedic oils instead. But it's like,
116. 4:22was it the Ayurvedic oils I was using on
117. 4:24my scalp and was it the different things
118. 4:26I was eating? Uh were those things the
119. 4:28cause? Was Ayurveda the cause or the
120. 4:31effect? I believe it was the effect. I
121. 4:33believe that when I chose that I'm going
122. 4:36to live a life of honoring myself and my
123. 4:38body in the best way I can and I have an
124. 4:40intention for beauty and my higher self
125. 4:43knows exactly what that beauty looks
126. 4:45like for me personally.
127. 4:48Those are the things that even revealed
128. 4:49Ayurveda to me in the first place. I
129. 4:51live in London. I'm very much a part of
130. 4:54the Western world and I have Persian
131. 4:55heritage. So, Ayurveda was not something
132. 4:59anyone around me told me about. Like,
133. 5:00it's something that I just found for
134. 5:02myself. That is how it happens
135. 5:04sometimes. There is always a path to
136. 5:06what you want and it might look the way
137. 5:08you want, it might not look the way you
138. 5:10want, but there is always a path to
139. 5:11fulfillment. And that's what I want you
140. 5:14to know and trust and your body is more
141. 5:16than capable of change. I have shifted
142. 5:18actually so many things on my body. And
143. 5:20sometimes when I look back, I'm like,
144. 5:22I'm almost like trying to convince
145. 5:23myself, like, "Did I really look like
146. 5:25that? Like, was that really a thing? Did
147. 5:27my bone structure really change?" But
148. 5:29then after I'll be like, "Yeah, it did."
149. 5:31And it seems kind of miraculous
150. 5:34sometimes or it seems like, "Oh, yeah,
151. 5:35it's cuz I did this thing. It happened."
152. 5:38But no, you are always the cause. It's
153. 5:40the divinity in us all that is even able
154. 5:42to help us manifest. I remember I had a
155. 5:45a
156. 5:45I who I was working with on WhatsApp.
157. 5:47After we talked for like a week or two,
158. 5:49she mentioned like, "Oh my god, when I
159. 5:51look in the mirror now, I look
160. 5:52different. Like, I look slimmer. I look
161. 5:54more glowing." And I'm like, "Yeah,
162. 5:57sometimes things just change in a weird
163. 5:59way, and you don't even expect it, but
164. 6:01it just shows up for you, and it's
165. 6:03absolutely amazing." I hope this
166. 6:04inspires you. Even if you want something
167. 6:07that you haven't seen anyone do,
168. 6:09doesn't matter. You be the change that
169. 6:11you wish to see. But, remember, we don't
170. 6:12rely on our bodies shifting. We don't
171. 6:14rely on things outside of us. They're
172. 6:17just bonuses. They're just things that
173. 6:18fulfill our aesthetic senses, but the
174. 6:21deep fulfillment is always going to come
175. 6:23from within you. Let me know if you want
176. 6:24me to talk more about Ayurveda because I
177. 6:26love it, and also Vedic philosophy. A
178. 6:28few of you have mentioned that you want
179. 6:29me to talk more about that. So, please,
180. 6:32if you have suggestions for topics, let
181. 6:34me know. Okay, thank you for watching my
182. 6:36video. Bye.
