Summer makes us want to worship the sun – and it Summer makes us want to worship the sun – and it makes sense. We like feeling warm, golden and satisfied. The sun is literally life-giving! 🌞 In addition to ruling our agni (i.e. our inner fire, also known as our metabolism) the sun gives us ENERGY: ambition, passion, clarity and that unmistakable glow. Of course we want to bask in it!⁠
⁠
The key to basking in summer’s warm glow is to take care so that we don’t end up overheated, fire-engine red and hungover.⁠
⁠
To balancing the fire element in summer, aim to:⁠
⁠
🏋🏽‍♀️ Avoid intense exercise during peak sun (10am-2pm)⁠
⁠
🧘🏼‍♀️ Cool down any hot, fiery intensity with slower-moving exercise and breathing techniques⁠
⁠
😴 Sleep on your right side to cool the nervous system⁠
⁠
🕶️ Slowly acclimate to spending time in the sun and avoid peak UV exposure; get morning or late afternoon sun when instead (sunrise and sunset are ideal times to soak in the light!)⁠
⁠
Are you ready to harmonize your routines, nutrition, herbs and spiritual practices with nature’s rhythms, and support other women in doing the same?⁠

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)

🌸A YEAR-LONG FREE MEMBERSHIP to our thriving Spirit Sessions membership platform where you get immediate access to ALL of my Spirit Sessions meditations, classes, workshops and other resources. Plus! Immediate access to my ground-breaking CHAKRAS course (a $1000 value!) and LIVE monthly workshops with yours truly and special guests.
