July is peak Pitta season in the Northern Hemisphe July is peak Pitta season in the Northern Hemisphere, and the qualities of heat, intensity, sharpness and transformation are abundant both in nature and our bodies (if we don’t counter-balance them!). It’s time to amp up the cooling, hydrating and soothing qualities. 🌊

For our Southern Hemisphere ladies - you're moving through the opposite season right now so look to vata-balancing recommendations.

Here are some foods to reach for this month:

• Taro helps balance excess heat and is also steadily grounding
• Cilantro is a great liver supporter, cooling excess Pitta
• Cantaloupe helps replenish hydration and fluids during the hotter months
• Pomegranates are classically Pitta-balancing, both sweet and cooling!
• Green beans are light and easy to digest 
• Watermelon offers so much hydration - eat up!
• Bean sprouts are lightly cleansing, offsetting heaviness and stagnation
• Coconut is cooling and replenishing, the epitome of unctuous summer radiance
• Mung beans provide easy-to-digest nourishment while also gently cleansing ama
• Zucchini is light and water-rich, perfect for the heat!
• Millet and basmati rice are light and easy on the system, pairing beautifully with summer veggies and herbs
• Carrots offer us sweetness and nourishment, while remaining relatively easy to digest
• Freshwater fish provides grounding protein without too much heaviness
• Lime adds brightness and flavor, supporting digestion in moderation
• Kiwi is a refreshing and juicy treat, helping aid hydration
• Honeydew is another water-rich option, making it ideal for hot days

One of the simplest ways to support ourselves thro One of the simplest ways to support ourselves through the warmth of summer is by slowing down enough to enjoy small rituals.

In Ayurveda, summer is associated with pitta dosha, which carries qualities of heat, intensity and sharpness. During this season, we often benefit from incorporating cooling foods, herbs and practices that help us feel refreshed and balanced.

This Rose Mint Sun Tea is one of our favorite ways to stay hydrated while embracing the sweetness of the season.

For this recipe, just let the sun do the steeping. 

Steep dried rose petals and fresh mint in a glass jar under direct sunlight for a few hours. (No need to measure perfectly - just add what you’ve got on hand!) Sip room temperature or slightly chilled throughout the day to stay hydrated and soothe Pitta.

🌹 Rose Mint Sun Tea

Ingredients
• Fresh mint leaves
• Dried rose petals
• Filtered water
• Optional: sliced cucumber, lemon, or a touch of honey

Directions
1. Add herbs to a glass jar filled with filtered water.
2. Allow the tea to infuse in the sun for 2–4 hours.
3. Strain and serve over ice.
4. Sip slowly and enjoy.

Sometimes wellness isn’t about adding more to our already full lives. Sometimes it’s simply pausing long enough to enjoy a beautiful cup of tea.

May this small ritual bring some chill to your pitta on warm days ahead. 🌞
When our desires are not connected to God, it lead When our desires are not connected to God, it leads to grasping. And grasping can lead to obsession, addiction, compulsion and unhealthy attachments.⁠
⁠
When we let ourselves FEEL where our deeper longings are coming from, and we bring in the healing light of our attention and our awareness, we get more clarity on what we really want.⁠
⁠
From a tantric perspective, underneath every obsession, there's energy. Underneath longing, desire and fantasy, there's this deep need for belonging. Underneath all of that craving there is energy, vitality and aliveness. ⁠
⁠
In the latest episode of Spirit Sessions Podcast, we’re diving deeper into longing, attachment and craving.⁠
⁠
We’ll explore the psychology and ancient spiritual wisdom around limerence - a state of infatuation with a person or idea, looking at how dopamine, social media and the search for external validation often keep us caught in cycles of unfulfilled longing. ⁠
⁠
In this episode, you’ll hear:⁠
⁠
~ What is limerence?⁠
~ The difference between infatuation and love⁠
~ What’s going on in the brain when we’re in a state of limerence?⁠
~ How to tell if you’re in a limerence relationship⁠
~ What do the ancient Buddhist and Tantric texts say on this topic?⁠
~ The “hungry ghost”⁠
~ Breadcrumbing⁠
~ Anticipation vs. actual pleasure⁠
~ How social media and advertisers use hypnosis⁠
~ The Ayurvedic concept of Kāma⁠
~ Making choices from a place of clarity⁠
~ The deep spiritual opportunity limerence offers⁠
