Ep. 138 Your Life LONGS for depth and meaning – 1 tip on getting there

This is a picture of Katie Silcox. The text reads, "Spirit Sessions: Find your true spiritual home with Katie Silcox."

Does your life have a deeper meaning than going through your same routine every day? If you are anything like Katie, the modern era of tech and linear time can be a straight-up straight-jacket sometimes. We need to return to the animal. The instinct. The wildness within that is ENCHANTED by the world around us. So, what do we do? Quit life and buy some land? Start a farm? Scream and run naked in the forest? Well, maybe. What can we do right now, in our own sacred lives, without burning it all down to the ground? 

Here is a quick, little love episode with an easy way to get there right now. It requires humility before the grandeur of your mind. A soft pillow to lay your head. And an attitude of reverence.

In this episode you’ll hear: 

~ The deeper purpose to all of our lives and how to connect with your soul

~ One of the ways collectivity and interrelatedness have been taken away from us

~ How to activate the deeper meaning inside of ourselves, our families, and our communities

~ How dreams are connected to the initiation into the realm of deeper meaning for your life

Ep. 137 Spiritual Magic Happens When We Do This ONE Thing

This is a picture of Katie Silcox. The text reads, "Spirit Sessions: Find your true spiritual home with Katie Silcox."

Today’s episode is all about letting that sh!t go. Katie dives into the single most important spiritual practice for so many of us, surrender. Surrender is about admitting that we are actually not in control. When we can commit to the one spiritual practice that is to keep our hearts open, we are touching into the grace of surrender.

In this episode you’ll hear: 

~ What is surrender?

~ The importance of committing to keeping our hearts open and the magic that comes from it

~ What happens when we let go and begin to accept this blissful human life (Let’s be honest, this human life is not about getting everything we want while living in this dreamy realm)

~ What is really means to surrender your life to the divine

~ LAST CHANCE: Prices go up by $500 after September 30th! If your heart is calling you toward Ayurveda School, now is the time!

Katie here. The real one.  It is summer in Virgi Katie here. The real one. 

It is summer in Virginia and today it’ll reach 101 degrees. I’m covered in rose oil, drinking coconut water and main-lining some sweet watermelon chunks to power up the morning. 

In other words - it’s HOT.

And I seem to always forget how activating the summertime can be. It comes out of nowhere, right? The intensity. The anger. The insomnia. The hot-flash.

But, there is one thing I come back to time and time again - and that’s The Shakti School Basics. 

Here is what that looks like:

1. Stop. Pause. Lay down or sit down. 
2. Make a commitment to be still for a bit.
3. Feel and open to everything that is arising in this moment.
4. Breathe. Let your awareness drop in and down your body. 
5. Breathe. Let your awareness rise above your body. 
6. Breathe. Let your heart soften and open and receive. 
7. Rest in the opening and stillness and energy that is always there. 
8. Wash, rinse, repeat. 

This is the starting point for everything we do in Level 1 Ayurveda School, which BTW we have just opened for early bird registration! 

And in honor of cooling our collective summer heat - I want to give you SO much cool stuff. Plus, a way to connect and start studying with me RIGHT NOW! 

🌞 Summer of Love is Here, Sister! 

When you sign up for 2026 Ayurveda School during our Summer of Love Sale (now through August 11th only), you’ll get:

💖$100 off tuition 

🌿FREE Paavani Pitta Summer Kit (aka a mini Pitta-reducing spritzer, cooling body oil and soothing spice blend)

The best food on the planet can’t help you if yo The best food on the planet can’t help you if you don’t have the digestive fire to transform and assimilate what you are putting in your body.⁠
⁠
The ancient texts called this digestive fire AGNI.⁠
⁠
Agni is what transforms and assimilates what we are taking in, whether it’s food, life experiences or thoughts. ⁠
⁠
Ayurveda holds that many of our diseases start with the accumulation of toxins (ama) in the body. This sludge builds up when our metabolic fire is unable to burn what we are putting into the body. ⁠
⁠
When our agni is functioning well, Ayurveda teaches that our body will be healthy, our skin radiant, our mind clear and our energy balanced.⁠
⁠
The good news is this: You can start boosting your agni right now with this little tip. ⁠
⁠
👉🏽 Add Ginger Pickle to your routine! And no - it’s not the kind of pickle you pile high on a sandwich - it’s more of an agni-honoring, pre-meal ritual.⁠
⁠
A small dab (about the size of your thumb tip) is traditionally taken before meals to stimulate the digestive fire and awaken agni.⁠
⁠
🫚Here’s the Ginger Pickle how-to: Slice a few pieces of fresh ginger. Add a pinch of rock salt and a spray of fresh lemon or lime juice. Eat before meals to kick-start your metabolic fire!
