About this episode

In Episode 24, Alaa Elharezi enlightens us as we talk about health and wellness in a whole new way. As a certified Hijama therapist, Yoga Instructor and Ayurvedic Health Advisor, Alaa offers up some simple ways to improve our daily lives and overall health. Although, the teachings of the Prophet (PBUH) and those of Ayurvedic medicine vary, she finds a way to incorporate both into her regimen, seamlessly. 

By integrating Prophetic wisdom and medicine into the way we eat, drink and sleep,
Alaa explains the positive results she's witnessed, such as a healthier gut, clear mind and an overall positive mood. She teaches us to be more present and mindful in whatever we are doing daily.

Take a listen and you'll learn that working toward a healthier lifestyle doesn't always mean making drastic changes.

One of the biggest lessons we took away from this conversation is that it's not always what you eat, rather it's how and when you eat it.
