Ep. 34 What is Feminine Form Yoga?

I started a conversation last year with the community about yoga and the rise of the feminine in the world. This episode is part of a larger series and conversation I want to have with you about what yoga is, what Shakti is and what the concept of “the feminine” is in relation to a yoga practice. You might want to start with Ep. 23 Why Your Yoga Practice May Need To Die before diving into this one.

In this episode I discuss:

~A reading from Wild Mercy by Mirabai Starr

~What is the Rising Feminine actually?

~Student LOVE!

~The longing in your heart to know who you are

~Yoga as an individual practice

~The medicine to an over bloated masculine

~Why we need to understand our primal biomechanics/nervous system

~That point just before death

~Yogic monks vs the feminine

~The control issue

~Lineage of Love Free Trial!

Looking for an Ayurveda certification program is a Looking for an Ayurveda certification program is about more than comparing hours and curriculum.⁠
⁠
It’s about finding a school that feels like somewhere you actually want to learn. 🌙⁠
⁠
A place where ancient wisdom is not only studied, but lived. Where women’s bodies and rhythms matter. Where your teachers bring decades of embodied experience to the classroom. ⁠
⁠
Where you can learn alongside a community of women asking some of the same big questions you are.⁠
⁠
And where becoming certified doesn’t require putting the rest of your life on pause.⁠
⁠
Our 300-hour Ayurveda Training brings together Ayurvedic education, Tantra, practical experience and deep personal study… all within a flexible online format.⁠
⁠
If you’ve been searching for an Ayurveda school that feels a little different, we’d love to welcome you inside.⁠
⁠
Comment AYURVEDASCHOOL to learn more!⁠
There are only FIVE DAYS left to save $500+ on tui There are only FIVE DAYS left to save $500+ on tuition with our current early bird rates! If you are considering joining our year-long deep dive into all things holistic health, ancient women's wisdom and spirit, now is the time!⁠
⁠
Shakti Ayurveda School isn't just a famed certification program. It teaches you how to heal yourself and to support others on their healing path. It's a revolution of feminine-form health, blending the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and Tantra with modern science to create full-spectrum health and balance in body, mind and spirit. ⁠
⁠
Our feminine-form online Ayurveda certification school is more than Ayurveda - it's Lady Life school.⁠
⁠
The term Feminine-Form Ayurveda points to the way we seek to remember and honor the long lineage of women wisdom keepers that have come before us. ⁠
⁠
The ways of our medicine-and-spirit-women ancestors were rarely written down or codified and were often passed down orally, yet these women were the stewards of birth, death, herbalism, menstruation, postpartum, menopause and so much more. ⁠
⁠
Ancient women’s wisdom is the lineage of Shakti Ayurveda School.⁠
⁠
It’s time to reconnect with the wisdom of Mother Nature.⁠
⁠
🌿 Get in the door before early bird enrollment closes—comment AYURVEDASCHOOL (one word) to join us in 2027.
Nature thrives in her cyclical routines. In fact, Nature thrives in her cyclical routines. In fact, She is very predictable.⁠
⁠
And although Her Wild Highness can throw a tornado into the mix, She usually gives us clear indications of her changes if we open our eyes to her subtlety. The more we can align with these rhythms, the easier it is to maintain body/mind health. The word for seasonal routine in Sanskrit is rutucharya.⁠
⁠
Ritucharya is not only related to the four seasons and the temperature outside. You may have noticed that life has its own seasonal flavor. You know, "to every thing (turn, turn, turn) there is a season." ⁠
⁠
Yes, from life, death, heat, cold, night, day, falling in love, breakups, and firm breasts to crow's feet, the Ayurvedic sages noticed natural changes both in terms of how the cycles of the seasons relate to the earth's axis, and of how people cycle through their own life in a continuous experience of expansiveness and contraction.⁠
⁠
As we begin to notice Nature's rhythms, we become more and more powerful. We tap into the Most Powerful One-Nature Herself.⁠
⁠
We also learn how to simultaneously work with the changes in our own bodies. We learn how to surrender to the inevitable beauty in the impermanence of everything.⁠
⁠
This autumn season (if you are in the Northern Hemisphere – if you’re in the Southern follow the Spring transitional Ayurveda recommendations!) calls for steadiness and ritual:⁠
⁠
✨ Keep consistent daily routines (your nervous system will thank you)⁠
🕯️ Turn inward with prayer and meditation⁠
🍵 Rest, reflect, and nourish yourself with grounding foods⁠
💨 Breathe deeply and let your body remember slowness⁠
⁠
These small sacred choices stabilize Vata dosha and awaken clarity, creativity and peace.⁠
⁠
This is the heart of what we teach in Shakti Ayurveda School... learning to live in harmony with the seasons of nature and the seasons of your soul.⁠
⁠
We're in the final weeks to lock in early bird tuition for our 2027 class (save $500+ before tuition goes up!). ⁠

Most people don’t know this story about me but…⁠ ⁠ Most people don’t know this story about me but…⁠
⁠
I used to be that “I have to do everything myself” kinda’ woman. ⁠
⁠
You know - the hardcore, “No one can do this the way I can” kinda’ gal. ⁠
⁠
I took care of myself because at one point in my life I had to. I “didn’t need anyone else.” I could “do it alone.” I could meditate for hours solo. Trust in only myself. I was a rock and an island. ⁠
⁠
And then I got pretty sick. ⁠
⁠
I won’t bore you with the details, but let’s just say this: The most important thing I learned during my healing time was that I needed support. ⁠
⁠
I learned that healing doesn’t happen alone, but in relationships and in COMMUNITY. ⁠
⁠
I got a great therapist. ⁠
⁠
I gave my staff more roles and responsibilities, trusting that not only could they handle their jobs, but they were BETTER at certain things than I was. ⁠
⁠
I got a great Ayurveda team of healers and functional medicine support. ⁠
⁠
I got an AMAZING group of women and men friends in my hometown. ⁠
⁠
I got a dog.⁠
⁠
I let go of my dating snobbery and got on an app. ⁠
⁠
I started to let the STUDENTS of The Shakti School even deeper into my heart. I began to see myself less as “the teacher” (although I’m a darn good one), and more as just one of the amazing souls that came to Ayurveda School every Wednesday to study health and spirituality. ⁠
⁠
I heard stories from our students about how they had made the best friendships, business connections and healer connections of their life - THROUGH OUR SCHOOL. I saw them meet one another for the first time  in person and light up like they were meeting a long lost sister. ⁠
⁠
This week is the LAST week to join the year-long Level 1 program with early bird tuition - the last chance to save $500 when you sign up.⁠
⁠
When you join, I can promise you this, you will have a spiritual home. ⁠
⁠
You will never have to heal alone again. ⁠
⁠
With my heart,⁠
Katie⁠
