A lunar cycle

Over the course of a month, we move away from a release of the previous month’s energies to cultivating new energy and intentions, celebrating and manifesting, and looking inwards.

Start by simply being aware of when your full and new moons are, add them to your calendar and the awareness will grow from there.

AND check out my Lunar Yoga Class, with video and audio practice for your new moon vibes. Find it here.

Hrydaya

The word for heart, *Hyridaya,* can mean both heart and mind- isn’t that interesting? How do you nourish your heart and mind?

You Are magical, radiant!

Sending your friendly magic-self reminder for today! Especially where Health is concerned, remember the magic in you, and the efficacy of prayer and gratitude.

A seasonal cleanse, while having incredible physical benefits, can also be a spiritual practice. This is how I guide us. Find the Fall Community Cleanse link here and sign up now to get your shopping lists and have time to prepare.

Fall Into balance

The “wind” comes up in autumn which can get you feeling a little tweaked, easily overwhelmed, perhaps irritable from leftover summer heat. A few simple fall tweaks can have you feeling less tweaked!

Slow down even for a few breaths before you eat and enjoy better digestion and mental space.

Don’t let the chill getcha!

Shift from salads and fresh summer fruits to cooked greens and veggies, and cooked apples, prunes, and the like.

Make coriander tea by boiling 16 oz of water with 1 tsp coriander seed (crush it first) for 15 minutes. Strain and drink warm or even at room temperature. Its benefits are endless this time of year.

To learn more recipes and techniques for balance this time of year, check out the Fall Community cleanse, where we learn by doing it! together!

Fall Food Tips

Some fall food pointers for you. What are your go-tos this season?

Reminder!

Ayurveda teaches the more complicated the disorder is, the more simple the cure. You will find this to be true in so many aspects of life! The reminder is: remember to keep it simple.

So often it’s one small change that brings about wellness.

Digestion

The importance of good digestion means so much! Excellence of nutrition rules how you feel, look, and act in life. I go deep into this in my book, Everyday Ayurveda for Women’s Health, and here is one of a handful of non-negotiable routines we explore in the Fall Community cleanse to this aim- find the link here and add it to your calendar now!

Pro tip: try not to eat until the previous meal has been digested. This is often a few hours, and will ensure a healthy nutritive fluid is produced from your food, thanks to making space for complete digestion of that meal.

Self-Care

It is coming upon the magical time when seasons shift and self-care routines offer exponential benefits!

I received SO MANY emails about how the information in this workshop helped people feel better when I first offered it. Vata-Pitta types especially!

when i feel…

Simple, and common sense, but sometimes we need to take that moment to sit and eat, yes?

Please, next time you are on the run, think of me, and sit down for some food!

Love, your gut.
