Feeling Hot, Irritated, or Overwhelmed?
Ayurveda Says Summer Might Be Part of
the Reason
As summer arrives, many women notice they feel more overheated, more impatient, more
exhausted, and more overwhelmed than usual. But according to Ayurveda, there may be a reason beyond the rising temperatures.
In this episode of Thrive Over 40, I'm diving into Pitta dosha—the energy associated with
fire, transformation, digestion, focus, and ambition—and how the summer season
naturally increases Pitta in both nature and our bodies.
We'll explore how the demands of modern life can create excess heat in the body, why so
many women in midlife feel disconnected from their needs, and how simple Ayurvedic
practices can help you feel more balanced, energized, and grounded during the summer
months.

Tomorrow begins a new month, and soon 🔥Pitta season (summer).
Pitta dosha in Ayurveda is Fire and Water.
The sun is most intense during this time and it’s important to keep our internal fire from getting out of balance.
Keep hydrated with water, and juicy cooling fruits like watermelon and pears. Lighter meals including lettuce for summer salads.
Coconut oil is cooling and nourishing to the skin for abhyanga (self massage).
For more tips like these you can follow my All About Pitta Pinterest board.

What can a four-year-old refusing green beans teach us about healing in midlife?
More than you’d think.
In this episode of Thrive Over 40, Amanda shares a funny dinner table moment with her
daughter that opened the door to a deeper conversation about resistance, nervous system
safety, and why so many women over 40 struggle to make lasting wellness changes.
If you’ve ever thought:
●
●
●
“Nothing works for me anymore.
”
“I’m too overwhelmed to take care of myself.
”
“I know what I should do, but I can’t seem to stick with it…
”
This episode is for you.
You’ll learn why your body naturally resists unfamiliar change, how survival mode impacts your
ability to create healthy habits, and why healing in midlife requires a gentler, more supportive
approach.
Amanda also shares how her Reclaim Your Radiance Foundations Journey helps women over
40 reconnect with their bodies through simple, sustainable wellness shifts rooted in Ayurveda,
nervous system support, and realistic self-care.
This episode is a reminder that your body isn’t working against you—it may simply be asking for
safety, nourishment, and support.

In This Episode, We Discuss:
Why women over 40 often resist the very things that could help them feel better
How nervous system dysregulation affects motivation and consistency
The connection between burnout, overwhelm, and midlife hormone changes
Why all-or-nothing wellness approaches often fail
Simple, sustainable healing practices for busy moms in midlife
The importance of feeling safe in your body again.

Do you ever feel emotionally exhausted, overstimulated, or disconnected from the things that used to bring you joy?

In this episode of Thrive Over 40, we explore the trending concept of a dopamine menu
through a grounded, holistic lens designed specifically for women in midlife.
As hormones shift and stress accumulates, many women find themselves stuck in cycles of burnout, nervous system overload, and constant productivity. This episode offers a gentler approach to wellness by focusing on small, supportive practices that help regulate the nervous system and reconnect you with joy again.

We discuss:
✨ what dopamine actually is
✨ why women over 40 often feel depleted
✨ the connection between stress, hormones, and emotional wellness
✨ Ayurvedic perspectives on nervous system balance
✨ how to create your own personalized dopamine menu with simple daily practices

Because wellness isn’t just about removing things from your life. Sometimes it’s about intentionally adding back what nourishes you.

Setting boundaries can be a huge shift in your mental and physical health.
I think we all struggle with boundaries from time to time. You can’t always be everything to everyone. You will be mentally and physically depleted which can lead to health issues down the road.
If you are a busy mom in midlife and are in need of assistance with accountability, goals and boundary setting, I can help you with that. 🌺
