81. The Ayurvedic Daily Clock: How To Eat, Sleep, and Live in Rhythm With Your Body


Have you ever wondered why you crash at 3pm, crave food late at night, or can't seem to fall asleep before midnight? Ayurveda has a 5,000-year-old answer — and it's called Dinacharya, or the Ayurvedic daily flow.
In this solo episode, Kate walks you through the complete Ayurvedic 24-hour clock — explaining what elements are active in your body at each time of day, and how to align your eating, sleeping, exercising, and resting with those natural rhythms.
Whether you're new to Ayurveda or have been practicing for years, there's something here for you — and Kate's invitation is simple: take one thing and try it.
In this episode:
- Why 10pm is the magic bedtime hour — and what your body does when you miss it
- The midnight fire cycle that drives natural detoxification
- Morning practices that open channels of elimination
- Why your biggest meal belongs at midday
- The afternoon energy crash — and the 10-minute reset that beats it
- How to wind down from 6–10pm for deeper, more restorative sleep
