Welcome to Part 2 of our Ayurveda for conception, pregnancy, birth and postpartum care series. In this episode, Vedic meditation teacher Laura Poole speaks with Dylan Smith, Ayurvedic practitioner and educator from Vital Veda, sharing eye opening yet practical wisdom to understand the power of conscious conception and the journey of the 9 months of pregnancy. Make sure you give both episodes in this series a listen (Part 1 and Part 2) because this wisdom of the Veda and Ayurveda has the ability to bring us back to our innate nature of creative beings who know how to conceive, carry and birth with full health, grace and the authority of inner wisdom.
