And the same thing happens when people work with have organic food or exercise or asana practice. We can enjoy the process or we can become obsessive about it and thereby become very heavy and weighed down. " - Dr. Ramkumar Kutty About Dr. Ramkumar Kutty: Dr. Ramkumar is a lifelong student of Ayurveda and other traditional Indian knowledge systems.
