Holiday Gift Guide

Holiday Gift Guide

Tis' the season to love and to give. As we live the darkest days of the year, we all become little Santas in our own right. Making things cheery and bright with our spirit. Our entire society is based off the goodwill of neighbors and giving. Do onto others as you would have done onto you. This is where the social contract begins.

I want to touch on giving, because our culture is obsessed with shopping. Can we not buy so many presents this year? Maybe just a few. Treat your mom and your closes relatives with thoughtful presents, that's it.

Below you'll find curated love from our whole team. With love and so much joy, Merry Yuletide and Happy Hanukkah!!

Charitable Giving

There are a couple of special organizations that I want to introduce you to. They will make your heart leap with joy in a lasting way like no Amazon shipment can:

The Grandmother's Council: represents a global alliance of thirteen indigenous grandmothers whom through prayer and education offer healing for our Mother Earth and protection for the indigenous ways of life.

Thistle Farms: offers natural bath/body/home products. Your purchase directly supports women who have survived trafficking, prostitution and domestic abuse. They are made by survivors and support survivors.

She's The First: they provide support to girls who will be the first in their families to graduate from high school. 2/3 of the world's illiterate adults are women. We must spread education to women in all parts of the world to ensure equality and the survival of our species.

Compassion Collective: they support motherless children. It started in 2016 to help displaced and orphaned Syrian children and they now have a program to help homeless American youth.

“Learning Ayurveda this past year has been a pow “Learning Ayurveda this past year has been a powerful ride. Ayurveda teaches us to vibe with our body’s natural flow and rhythms. I have started to honor that feminine energy that is within me.⁣
⁣
The wisdom and depth of this ancient holistic healing system not only provide insights into physical health but also offer a profound understanding of the mind-body connection and the intricate nuances of feminine well-being.”⁣
⁣
Meet our beloved Cynthia @cynthia_amaro__ one of our students here at The Shakti School!⁣
⁣
Cynthia is a Fashion Licensing Agent in NYC and a Dog Momma to 2 doodles. She’s currently enrolled in our Level 1 Ayurveda School. ⁣
⁣
She writes, ⁣
⁣
“Ayurveda has helped me connect with my true purpose aka My Dharma. Ayurveda has reignited my passion for yoga, and I’m now working towards becoming a yoga teacher and starting Level 2 in 2024. ⁣
⁣
Learning that Ayurveda is the healing aspect of yogic science has brought everything into perspective. It’s teaching me to heal myself first so I can inspire and help others heal too. ⁣
⁣
Realizing that true awareness leads to the recognition of unity and transcending personal limitations is the ultimate goal of Ayurveda. Being a student of Ayurveda is my Self-Care Routine and I want to share it with the world.” ⁣
