Think of ojas (OH-JUS) as the container that holds Think of ojas (OH-JUS) as the container that holds your abundant energy. It is the ultimate energy reserve of the body and mind. It is the purest essence of kapha, and physically, it is related to reproductive, hormonal and cerebrospinal fluids. ⁠
⁠
I love the metaphor of ojas as the body’s natural honey; it is the delicate and refined essence we produce from the plants and other vital essences we take in. Ojas is the force that enables us to sustain that change over time. ⁠
⁠
Think of it as your psychophysical container or shield. These days, everyone needs a little more support in the realm of ojas. ⁠
⁠
Here is a recipe for building and conserving your vital energy (ojas):⁠
⁠
• Go organic—Eat foods that are organic, in season and, when possible, local. ⁠
• Cleanse and purify, then rebuild and renew. Reduce ama before adding heavy, ojas-building foods.⁠
• Avoid overeating—This depletes your digestive fire. ⁠
• Avoid excess stimulation while eating—If you want to build your core vitality, don’t watch the evening news during dinner or eat lunch in front of your computer. ⁠
• Rest—Sleeping eight hours at night is paramount for building ojas. Rest also means taking a break from constant “doing” to relax and deeply unwind. ⁠
• Oil your outer body. ⁠
• Oil your inner body - Yes, that’s right. Drinking and eating more oils boosts ojas. Incorporate more oils such as hemp, flax, avocado, coconut and ghee into your diet. ⁠
• Say no to vampires—Avoid the people, places, and media that disturb your mind and/or suck your soul blood. ⁠
• Spend more time in nature. ⁠
• Rest your mind. ⁠
• Do nasya. ⁠
• Do restorative yoga. ⁠
• Love the one you’re with—any form of genuine love and devotion boosts your core vitality and immune system. ⁠

What if breast care was part of your wellness prac What if breast care was part of your wellness practice, not something you only thought about when something felt wrong?

Your breasts live at the crossroads of hormones, lymphatics, stress, nourishment, heart energy and the nervous system. And Ayurveda gives us a beautiful lens for understanding how all of these pieces speak to one another.

In this FREE class, Katie will teach you about breast wellness through the lens of Feminine-Form Ayurveda, including the ultimate breast massage practice for supporting lymphatic flow, nourishment, connection and care.

Learn a way of relating to your body that is less about fixing and optimizing, and more about listening.

The Shakti School exists to help bring the ancient The Shakti School exists to help bring the ancient system of Ayurveda into the bodies of women on this planet right now, in a way that makes sense for our modern lives. ⁠
⁠
One of the biggest hallmarks of this form of medicine is the utilization of intuition. Our intuition always rises again because it lives in our bodies. ⁠
⁠
And so, Ayurveda is really this bigger idea of being able to deeply tune into the body, ⁠
⁠
of walking down into the cave of your own heart, ⁠
⁠
of putting your hands on your flesh and entering into a relationship with yourself, ⁠
⁠
of uncovering parts of yourself that you may have consciously or unconsciously hidden from yourself, ⁠
⁠
of doing the very brave and powerful work of awakening our own heart.⁠
⁠
Ayurveda, beyond being this beautiful tradition from India, is on a grander macro level, a returning to truth. ⁠
⁠
That truth is the laws of nature in your body. And that is the intention behind everything we attempt to do at Shakti School.⁠
