344: Reclaim Your Morning: 5 Minutes to Reset Your Nervous System

What if the secret to reclaiming your peace and power didn’t require a 2-hour self-care routine—but just a few moments of stillness, intention, and warmth?
In this deeply grounding solocast, I’m pulling back the curtain on the morning ritual that changed my life. It’s not a complicated checklist or a hacky productivity trend—it’s a soul-nourishing ritual rooted in Ayurveda, neuroscience, and emotional attunement.
If you’re a woman on the go who wakes up already feeling behind, this is your invitation to stop doing and start being—before the world gets to you, you get to you.
And if you’re ready to stay rooted in your rituals, I’ve created the Chai Tonics Ritual Starter Kit — crafted to help you lead with presence, peace, and pleasure, even in the middle of your busiest days. Only 100 kits available — get yours now → https://neetabhushan.com/ritual
