Do you wake up feeling groggy, sluggish, unclear, or ready for more sleep? Do you feel stuck, weighed down, or lethargic? Or perhaps your clothes don’t fit quite as well as they used to? If you said yes to any of these questions, there’s a good chance you have ama in your system and need to clear it out. ‘Ama’ is undigested material (food, emotions, issues) that sticks around in our physical and mental bodies, weighing us down and making us feel foggy and tired, instead of light and clear. Ama blocks the flow of consciousness, making us less awake and present in our daily lives. Jessica Graham Robinson and I talk about what ama looks like in our bodies and minds, what creates it, and how we can rid ourselves of it. Listen in to this juicy podcast for some serious detoxifying information that will help you to thrive and live an ama free life!

- What is Ama?
- How does it affect me?
- How do I heal it?
