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.⁠
⁠
Rutucharya 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.⁠
⁠
There’s just over one week left to lock in early bird tuition for our 2026 class (save $500 before tuition goes up!).⁠

When I first started falling in love with Ayurveda When I first started falling in love with Ayurveda and spirituality, everyone in my world told me there was “no way” to make a great living in the wellness world. Even my yoga teacher…⁠
⁠
Well, thank God(dess) I called bulls&!t on that and followed the voice inside my HEART. ⁠
⁠
Because I learned how to make a great living while sharing what I absolutely love. And there is nothing more fulfilling than to wake up in the morning getting to live out your passions and help others. ⁠
⁠
I wanna’ teach you how to do that. Whether it be as a health coach, or in whatever career or mission you long to be a part of on the planet. ⁠
⁠
A part of what we do in Ayurveda School, both Levels 1 and 2, is empower you to get super-clear on what it is your heart longs to share with the world.⁠

Last week, my house burned. Half of it gone. Smoke Last week, my house burned. Half of it gone. Smoke damage everywhere else. In one night, almost every material thing I owned was lost.

It was 1 a.m. when Ojas, my Bernedoodle, barked in a way I’d never heard before. Groggy, I grabbed my glasses and opened my bedroom door to a wall of orange - sparks, smoke, alarms.

I froze. My body didn’t know what to do. But somewhere inside, a voice said move. I clutched Ojas’s collar, bolted through the back door, and landed in the garage with shaking hands.

I couldn’t even press 911. My fingers wouldn’t work. “Okay, girl,” I whispered to myself. “You know what this is. Your body’s in freeze. Breathe. Dial the numbers.”

And then - peace. A strange calm washed over me. A voice inside said: You’ve been training for this. God is with you. You are not alone.

Worried the garage would ignite, I grabbed the only thing I could find for a leash - a bungee cord - and stumbled outside in nothing but a t-shirt and underwear. I stood barefoot, watching one side of my house glow molten orange. The night was silent except for the crickets. It was terrifying and strangely holy all at once, watching my home consume itself.

Here’s the wildest part:

Just two weeks earlier, I had been teaching a class at The Shakti School on fear. We practiced something called The Precious Things Practice, a Buddhist meditation where you imagine giving away everything you love - first easy things, then the hardest. Not to lose them, but to feel the grief of impermanence… and to practice letting go.

I didn’t know it then, but I was rehearsing for this exact moment.

And it worked. The practices I’ve taught for over a decade became the lifeline I clung to as my world literally burned. They held me steady in loss. They reminded me: everything is fleeting. 

Everything is Divine. And beneath it all, there is still love.

I’ve never felt so held. So raw. So real. 

With a heart full of gratitude,
Katie
