Here’s your Ayurvedic Guide to the Sun 👇🏼⁠
⁠
Ayurvedic wisdom reminds us that the sun is actually really good for us - it’s life-giving.⁠
⁠
The sun carries information, and that information enters the body through the skin, our largest organ. Much of our seasonal affective disorder and plummeting vitamin D levels are a direct result of losing our natural relationship with light and with the sun.⁠
⁠
Our ancestors may or may not have been outside all day long, but they had a relationship with the sun. They watched its rising and falling every day.⁠
⁠
One of the first steps you can take to establish a relationship with the sun that helps your body and mind thrive is to get outside at sunrise and sunset as often as possible.⁠
⁠
Ayurveda teaches that sunrise and sunset are two moments when that information, that download of pure prana, is at its highest. These times are considered the most sattvic, clarifying and purifying.⁠
⁠
Our ancestors also recognized and honored the sun’s qualities at different times of day.⁠
⁠
Use some type of protection from the sun, especially between about 11 a.m. and 2 or 3 p.m. That could look like natural sunscreen, shade or clothing that protects your skin.⁠
⁠
However, getting midday sun on your skin is also essential because that's when vitamin D production is highest. Vitamin D needs to hit the skin in order to penetrate into the body. Try to be outside during those hours for at least 15 minutes to receive that vitamin D light.⁠
⁠
P.S. Don’t forget about quality sun skincare. Throw out anything in your bathroom that you wouldn’t feel comfortable sticking your finger in and putting in your mouth! ⁠
⁠

The solstice is a time to let our UP + OUT energy The solstice is a time to let our UP + OUT energy flow. It’s time to allow the higher frequencies of celebration and gratitude to pierce our hearts and bask in the abundance of light. 

Here are some simple solstice remembrances to maximize this powerful seasonal shift this weekend:

• Sun-Gaze. Take your morning meditation outside. Recognize and feel the sun’s presence. See if you can really tap into the frequency of gratitude for how the sun nurtures all life. 

• Build an Outdoor Altar. Use things from your backyard, objects that you want to infuse with your intentions, and light incense and candles. This is also a really fun activity to do with friends or family if you’re gathering to celebrate!

• Build a Bonfire. Ancient Northern and Central European pagans welcomed Midsummer with bonfires. It was thought that bonfires would boost the sun’s energy for the rest of the growing season and guarantee a good harvest for the fall.

• Indulge in Pitta-Reducing Delights. Seek out your local farmers market and pay homage to the summer harvest by using seasonal ingredients.

• Set New Goals. Take time to reflect on the themes, shifts and lessons that have shaped the past six months, and revisit the intentions you set at the winter solstice. As you look ahead, ask yourself what you want to cultivate, release or expand - physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Wishing you a day of prosperity, fertility, and new growth in ways big and small,

Katie + Team Shakti 🌞
When I was younger, connecting with my intuition w When I was younger, connecting with my intuition was more like an intentional practice of learning about it and studying it.⁠
⁠
Now my intuition is really accessible, and it’s really fast. And it’s also deeply challenging.⁠
⁠
I know very quickly the highest and best move, action-wise. So the task isn’t as much, “is this my intuition? How do I connect to my intuition?” ⁠
⁠
My intuition is already right there. And so is yours.⁠
⁠
The challenge is to actually do what it says. ⁠
⁠
Our ego, or our little self, is so used to thinking and acting like it’s in charge… But our intuition is like, “Hey lady, why don’t you NOT react and just pause instead? What if you don’t know everything? What if you really take a moment to listen?”⁠
⁠
As we age, the most important thing around intuition is this: ⁠
⁠
Do what it freaking says. ⁠
⁠
Sometimes, that’s really, really hard because our reactions are almost instant. ⁠
⁠
But here’s the thing. When you start to learn what happens when you DON’T listen to your intuition - you begin to learn that the cost is usually too much NOT to listen.⁠
⁠
When did listening to your intuition really “click” in your personal evolution or aging process? Share with me down below - I wanna hear your experience.⁠
⁠
