Editorial Reviews

Dr. Claudia Welch
“Ayurveda originated, in part, to address the disorders and ease the discomfort of a populous grown increasingly distant from the intimate practical knowledge of, and proximity to nature’s cycles, seasons, and wisdom. Katie Silcox empathizes with these city and worldly dwellers, and shares simple, light-hearted, possibly life-changing perspectives and techniques that hail from the time-tested sisters in Indian sciences: Ayurveda and Yoga.”

Meredith Hogan
“Katie Silcox, you are the Carrie Bradshaw of the yoga and Ayurveda movement in the United States.”

Sharon Gannon
"Katie translates the self-help ancient system of Ayurveda for the modern woman who wants to be more healthy, happy, and sexy, and achieve the goals of pleasure, prosperity, purpose, and freedom—living life to the fullest."

Prashanti de Jager
"Katie's book feeds her readers, no doubt, but more importantly in many ways, it also nourishes the Ayurvedic tradition itself."

This is the rhythm of September. 🍃 Ayurveda rem This is the rhythm of September. 🍃 Ayurveda reminds us that in Northern Hemisphere, we may begin to feel the first whispers of vata season as the energy of summer softens and the body starts craving more nourishment, more boundaries and a little more quiet.⁠
⁠
This is the perfect time to cool any lingering pitta heat while tending to your gut, your nervous system and your inner world. ⁠
⁠
In Ayurveda, autumn isn't about doing more. It's about taking the walk through the woods, saying no without guilt, cooking up something warm and spicy on the stove and letting your heart get a little softer.⁠

September is such a threshold month in Ayurveda. 🍂 We begin to move into the cool, dry, mobile qualities of vata, which means many women start noticing more anxiety, dryness, irregular digestion, trouble sleeping or feeling a little less rooted. It’s time to lean into warmth and nourishment, and favor foods that build steadiness.⁠
⁠
(For my Southern Hemisphere ladies… you’re moving toward spring and increasing pitta, so your bodies may be craving lighter and more cooling support. ❤️)⁠
⁠
Some of my favorite September foods:⁠
⁠
• Lentil soup is warming, grounding and nourishing for digestion as the air turns cooler⁠
• Nuts bring healthy fats and density, helping counteract vata’s dry, light qualities⁠
• Ghee lubricates tissues, supports digestion and mitigates dryness⁠
• Cooking your apples makes them softer and easier to digest in autumn⁠
• Sweet potato is grounding and helps build stability in the nervous system⁠
• Onions help stimulate sluggish digestion as temperatures drop⁠
• Oats are heavy, warming and comforting, making them ideal for balancing early vata season⁠
• Garlic stimulates agni and helps keep digestion strong⁠
• Dates are sweet, building and nourishing for depleted energy and dryness⁠
• Potatoes provide grounding carbohydrates when paired with healthy fats and spices⁠
• Chicken is warming and strengthening, helping rebuild tissues and sustain energy⁠
• Sesame seeds are one of Ayurveda’s favorite foods for vata because of their oily, warming qualities⁠
• Carrots offer sweetness and earthiness while supporting nourishment through seasonal transition⁠
• Basmati rice is easy to digest and pairs well with warming spices during autumn⁠
• Salmon provides nourishing fats that help counter dryness in the skin, joints and nervous system⁠
⁠
🌹 The doors to our 2027 Ayurvedic Wellness Coach Certification are officially OPEN for Early Bird enrollment. If you’ve been feeling called to study Ayurveda in a deeper way, comment AYURVEDASCHOOL below and we’ll send you more information.⁠
