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.

Trying to have a healing dialogue with your inner Trying to have a healing dialogue with your inner child for the first time ever. 🫠

Healing isn’t a one-and-done conversation where you say the right thing and suddenly your inner child doesn’t have trust or abandonment issues anymore (wouldn’t that be nice!? 💔🔥)  

Healing is a relationship.

It’s about slowly (sometimes awkwardly 😉) and lovingly, befriending the parts of you that were ignored, rushed, shamed or quietly kicked out of your own heart.

The tender parts of you don’t open because you said something “right.”

They open because you stayed.

Because you didn’t leave when it felt uncomfortable, even though that first conversation may have felt a little cringe ;) Drop me a line below if you know exactly what I’m talking about. 🫀❤️‍🔥🦋💫
Ayurveda is a complex and vast folk medicine syste Ayurveda is a complex and vast folk medicine system that arose out of ancient India as long as 5,000 years ago. Ayurveda offers us tools to not only heal, but thrive, physically, mentally, relationally and spiritually.

Ayurveda teaches that in order to embody true health (of body, mind and spirit) there are three pillars that must be honored. 

🍋 Pillar #1 Food

According to Ayurveda, all disease originates in the digestive system. When we eat the wrong foods for our body, eat too much late at night, emotionally eat, or eat winter foods in the summer, our belly suffers.

Food is the essence of all life. 

What you put into your body gives you the power to make your life’s purpose a reality. In order to be an earth-shaking, present, wise woman, we’ve got to fuel our machine with premium gas. 

☁️ Pillar #2 Sleep

Getting our beauty z’s can do wonders for how we look and feel, inside and out. Sleep allows the body to detoxify itself from the day, revamping us for the day to come. 

Sleep is also when we heal the tissues of the physical body. It’s the time when we do a major subconscious dump of any undigested emotions and life scenarios.

⚡️ Pillar #3 Shakti

This pillar is all about the management of the vital, creative, life-force that runs through each of us. How do we manage our energy? How do we use our attention and our body? If we look at one of the meanings of the word bramacharya, which is what Ayurveda calls this pillar, we gain insight into what the ancients understood.

One interpretation of the word is “to walk with God.” An example of this is checking in with our heart (you can think of this as your conscience, intuition or God) before engaging in decision making. In this way, our choices are more aligned with our highest intentions and the higher good.

At The Shakti School, we are a place of learning a At The Shakti School, we are a place of learning and unlearning. Yes, you’ll receive rich teachings, ancient wisdom, tools, philosophy and so much more Sanskrit than you ever could have imagined. 📚🪔✨⁠
⁠
Just as importantly, you’ll be invited to soften. To remember. To release anything that keeps you from your own inner knowing. From your own Inner Teacher.⁠
⁠
This is feminine-form learning: not just acquiring information, but creating space for remembrance, embodiment and truth that can’t be taught. Only revealed.⁠
⁠
If this way of learning speaks to you, it’s not too late to join us.⁠
⁠
We are in the classroom today at 2pm US Eastern time and we are still welcoming women into this living, breathing, feminine-form approach. 🌿 ⁠
⁠
Comment AYURVEDASCHOOL for more information.
One of the biggest questions I get from women expl One of the biggest questions I get from women exploring our program is “What can I actually do with an Ayurvedic coaching certification? What’s the scope of a coaching practice?”⁠
⁠
Becoming a certified coach is absolutely a viable career path, and it can also enhance the offerings that you already have. 🌿⁠
⁠
With an Ayurvedic Wellness Coach certification, you can legally and ethically work with people as a coach and educator in so many ways, including:⁠
⁠
📒 Working 1:1 as a wellness or lifestyle coach, helping clients with digestion, stress, hormones, energy, daily rhythms and self-care (within the coaching scope and with proper insurance)⁠
⁠
🧘🏽‍♀️ Teaching workshops in yoga studios, community spaces, retreat centers or online⁠
⁠
🌬️ Guiding people through nutrition education, daily routines, seasonal resets, meditation, and nervous system support⁠
⁠
🥀 Supporting women with cycle awareness, womb wellness and feminine rhythm education⁠
⁠
🪐 Weaving Ayurveda into your existing work, whether it’s yoga, bodywork, coaching, energy work, movement or spiritual mentorship⁠
⁠
🗓️ Creating group programs, circles or educational offerings rooted in preventative care and self-healing⁠
⁠
💗 Using Ayurveda first and foremost for your own life—and letting your lived experience become your medicine⁠
⁠
Working as an Ayurvedic Wellness Coach is about teaching people how to live well, how to listen to their bodies and how to create daily practices that actually work in real life.⁠
⁠
And yes, when you go through our program you’ll also leave with real tools: a gorgeous training manual, client forms, starter business resources and a community of women walking this path with you.⁠
⁠
Our Level 1 class began a couple of weeks ago, and we’re still welcoming our last-minute ladies who feel the nudge and don’t want to wait another year.⁠
⁠
If this is speaking to you, send us a DM to learn more.⁠
⁠
We’d love to welcome you into our school. 🌹
