Dr. Oscar O’Duchon, an Ayurvedic practitioner based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, takes you on a journey through the ancient system of Ayurveda in this episode of the UK Health Radio Podcast. With a background as a GP family doctor, Dr. O’Duchon explains how Ayurveda's principles and practices can be integrated into modern life to promote mental and physical well-being.
He delves into the origins of Ayurveda, its core principles, and its relevance today, especially in addressing mental health issues that have surged since the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. O’Duchon discusses the importance of understanding our superficial and deep minds, and how trauma can disrupt the flow of prana (energy) through our subtle channels, leading to mental health problems like anxiety and depression.
He also explores practical techniques such as Yoga Nidra, meditation, and pranayama (breathwork) that can help restore balance and improve mental health. By connecting with nature and practising mindfulness, Ayurveda teaches us to live in harmony with our inner wisdom and maintain a healthy mind and body.
