SITTING IN SOLIDARITY

About

I have learned through my own trials that the momentum of life can pull us off center, which means that we need practices and tools to bring us back home to ourselves so that we can remember and stay true to what is in our hearts.

These cold gray days have me dreaming of sandy sun These cold gray days have me dreaming of sandy sunny beaches. Who wants to come with me?

Let’s go to the breathtaking Atlantic coast of Portugal, near the charming fishing village of Zambujeira do Mar, in the Alentejo region, which is far removed from the hustling tourist culture of the rest of Europe. This breathtaking coastline is known for its long stretches of pristine bluffs, sandy coves, coastal hiking trails, and charming white-washed villages.

Enjoy your stay at Cocoon Portugal, a 275 acre coastal farm and retreat. Farm to table meals, pizza parties, fresh water lake, and hammocks. It’s pure magic.

Daily yoga, meditation and Ayurvedic teachings in addition to time for swimming at the beach, relaxing at the lake, and hiking the world class coastal trails. 

Join us here on the Ayurveda, Yoga & Meditation retreat September 4-11, 2021.

Today is the last call to sign up for the annual S Today is the last call to sign up for the annual Spring Cleanse & Restore program. I would love to guide you step-by-step through a whole-food, plant-based seasonal home cleanse.

A spring cleanse helps the body purify and shed the accumulated heavy, dense, and slow qualities from winter. Making time to cleanse restores balance and ensures the body has a chance to detoxify so you are less likely to experience spring colds, allergies, weight gain, lethargy, and inflammation. You also have the chance to reset your self-care and lifestyle practices with Ayurvedic rituals, yoga and meditation. This all sets you up for deep inner alignment with your true nature and inner knowing.

While the cleanse begins as a group on Monday, you can sign up and receive all the program materials to move at your own pace at your own time.

Cleanse & Restore April 12-21st with a live kick off call tonight (which will be recorded).

Maintaining balanced digestion is at the core of p Maintaining balanced digestion is at the core of preventative medicine, health and healing. Digestion is governed by agni, the biological fire in your stomach, liver and tissues that fuels digestion and regulates absorption and metabolism.

If your digestion is balanced you experience Sama Agni and will digest, assimilate and eliminate well. If your digestion is not balanced you may experience gas, bloating, constipation, acid reflux, diarrhea, fatigue, joint pain, and a host of other symptoms or illnesses. 

Ancient Ayurvedic wisdom provides us with a thorough guide map for prevention of illness and it begins with healthy digestion. 

What is the state of your agni or digestive fire? 

If you need a reset join us for this season's spring Cleanse & Restore program. You will learn how to use food as medicine and your kitchen pharmacy to restore your digestion and heal your gut. 

Cleanse & Restore home cleanse beings April 12th though you can adjust the dates to be convenient for you.
