96: Ayurvedic Healing in Community with Dr. Ramkumar Kutty

The Cosmic Business Podcast - A podcast by Paula Crossfield - Mondays

You’re in for a treat in today’s show. I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Ramkumar Kutty, one of the visionaries behind Vaidyagrama, an Ayurveda Healing Village. I’ve spent a lot of time there in rural India over the last ten years, and I’ve seen how this special place has evolved with a focus on creating an eco-village. His philosophy embodies the values of building a values-based cosmic business, which is what this podcast is all about. He shares insights about moving from ideation to skilled action and why people often get stuck in the wisdom-collection phase. Join us to learn more!Show Highlights:How Vaidyagrama has changed and grown over the last few years to align with traditional principles of sustainable living, community, and land managementWhy Vaidyagrama patients are taught to prepare herbal concoctions instead of taking them in pill/capsule formHow Dr. Ramkumar holds onto a shared vision of “we” and trusts the growth processWhy perfection is an obstacle to overcome on the journey to your visionWhy failures are necessary and beneficial to help us learn from our mistakesHow Dr. Ramkumar is intentional in bringing back the spiritual piece of Ayurveda in the healing journeyHow collaboration happens holistically at VaidyagramaHear Dr. Ramkumar’s answers to rapid-fire questions about impactful advice, morning practices, and some of his favorite books to recommend. Resources and Links:Learn more about Vaidyagrama.Books mentioned by Dr. Ramkumar: Prakriti: Your Ayurvedic Constitution by Dr. Robert SvobodaSlow Death by Rubber Duck: The Secret Danger of Everyday Things by Rick Smith and Bruce LourieThe One-Straw Revolution: An Introduction to Natural Farming by Masanobu FukuokaIf you want to know more about Vaidyagrama, I’m hosting a limited retreat and planning session in November 2023.
