Highlights:

• Cate explains that the thing that’s happening to Vata is because we have the exposed nervous system, and the VUCA world naturally has negative stressors on the mind. So it’s going to negatively stress the mind.
• The whole physiology is trying to smartly evolve. And so it’s not going regenerative. Cells that are going mutation are degenerative.

Quotes:

• “Anything that has to do with hyperacidity goes right in the Pitta category.”
