SPRING – A Time of New Beginnings

In this first episode of This Conscious Life, we celebrate the magic of new beginnings, and the vibrant, vital energy of Spring.

Hosts Eminé and Paul Rushton share their journey from city-dwelling, job-juggling and deeply depleted new parents, to a much slower, gentler and responsive way of living – rooted in Ayurveda, and guided by supportive seasonal changes.

Eminé talks about identifying her drivers – and awakening to the fact that it was not a traditional model of success that they sought – neither wealth, nor status – but a return to natural, humble, beautiful life, where both her and Paul felt ‘held’ by nature and the Earth.

Paul takes us on a gently exuberant journey through Spring – around the allotment plot, foraging spots, the garden, and into the kitchen. Learn about what is growing up, all around us, right now, and how to use it to support your body in its natural cleansing and clearing processes.
