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.

⁠
💎 Comment “LEVEL2” for more information. ⁠
⁠
🪽 Upcoming Level 2 students—which class or topic are you most looking forward to? We wanna’ hear from you! Let us know down below. 👇🏼
Ayurveda divides us into mind-body types called do Ayurveda divides us into mind-body types called doshas, which simply means “that which is waiting to go out of balance.” Through observing patterns over thousands of years, the Ayurvedic sages discovered that some of us are like delicate orchids, some of us are like big, beautiful bullfrogs, and some of us are fiery creatures somewhere in the middle. 🌸⁠
⁠
🌀 Vata dosha is made of air and ether, and it’s the principle of movement, change and creativity. These are the people who are imaginative, expressive, quick, sensitive and full of ideas. ⁠
⁠
→ When Vata is in balance there is inspiration, freedom and flow. And when it’s out of balance, that same movement can turn into anxiety, overwhelm or feeling ungrounded.⁠
⁠
🌿 Kapha is the combination of the earth and water elements. Heavy, cool and damp, Kapha is the principle of stability, solidity and growth, that which builds and that which stays. ⁠
⁠
→ Kapha types are strong, grounded, reliable and emotional in that watery, loving way. When they’re out of balance, they might hold on a little too much - to things, weight and old grievances that don’t want to move.⁠
⁠
🔥 Pitta is made of fire with a little bit of water, and it’s the principle of transformation, of heat, of intensity, of that which takes one thing and turns it into something else. These are the fiery ones, the ones with strong digestion, strong opinions and strong focus. ⁠
⁠
→ They are bright, sharp and driven, and when they’re in balance they’re powerful leaders and visionaries. When they’re out of balance, that fire can get a little too hot, showing up as irritability, inflammation or pushing too hard.⁠
⁠
🦋 Ladies, Level 2 is starting in just ONE WEEK. In Level 2, we’ll take the study of the doshas to the next level, including tongue and pulse assessment, to help you and your clients find greater balance, ease and radiance. The doors are closing soon, so don’t wait.⁠
⁠
🌷 Interested in learning more about the doshas right now? Comment “179” and I’ll send you my podcast where we explore the three mind-body types.
Ayurveda is the science of life. 🌎🌺🦋 We Ayurveda is the science of life. 🌎🌺🦋 

We can understand Ayurveda as this beautiful art and philosophy that has been held for humanity for thousands of years. It’s really a study of nature - the way the seasons move, the way the body responds, the way you are uniquely made.

And maybe most importantly, it’s about understanding how you are different. Because in this wide, wide world of nature, everything is unique. Nature created delicate orchids and big, beautiful, chunky bullfrogs. Both are perfect. But each is totally different. 🐸🌷

Ayurveda says we’re all made up of these elemental patterns, and it divides us into mind-body types called doshas, which means “that which is waiting to go out of balance.” 

We were each both with our dosha or “type”—in other words, it’s not going to change.

Kapha is earth and water. When we feel into Kapha, we feel its heaviness, coolness and steadiness. Kapha is the mud, the structure, the part of you that builds and stays. It’s the bricks, the mortar, the thing that makes life feel safe and held.

People with more Kapha tend to be strong, grounded and resilient. Kaphas hold more substance - more muscle, more softness and more presence. And emotionally, there’s that beautiful watery quality of love, attachment, bonding and deep feeling. 🌊

They gather, they hold, and they stay.

Kapha’s ability to feel deeply, to trust their inner sense, to stay connected to what’s true… that’s their medicine.

🌙 If you’re loving learning about the doshas, you’ll love our free Women’s Wisdom and Ayurveda mini-course where we’ll dive even deeper into feminine-form Ayurveda and understanding your unique nature. Comment WISDOM to access now.
Level 2 is for the healers in training. ⁠ ⁠ It Level 2 is for the healers in training. ⁠
⁠
It’s for the women who feel called to walk the path of the healer. Not as a title or a credential, but as a deep, lived way of being.⁠
⁠
Level 2 is an invitation into a lineage of those who have tended, listened and held others for thousands of years. The lay healers, the wise women, the ones who learned through devotion, intuition and deep relationship with life. 🪔⁠
⁠
In Level 2, Ayurveda becomes something you live in your bones—a feminine, embodied way of healing, not just something you study.⁠
⁠
Level 2 is a space to honor the archetype of the healer within you, deepening even further into what you tapped into in Level 1.⁠
⁠
Becoming a healer isn’t about arriving. It’s about committing to the endless unfolding.⁠

🪶 We begin April 21st—will you be there for our first Ayurveda Tuesday of 2026? Let us know if you’re coming. 👇🏼
On a spiritual and energetic level, getting rid of On a spiritual and energetic level, getting rid of the old heavy clutter in your life is super important.⁠
⁠
Tantra actually says that the rhythmic quality of cleaning is very similar to the rhythmic quality of mantra, or the rhythmic quality of making love, or the rhythmic quality of a dance or yoga where you're just in this magical, physical space of repetition.⁠
⁠
The upcoming new moon is a perfect opportunity to pour magic and intention into a task that would normally be done as a chore. ⁠
⁠
Happy House Cleaning! 🧹✨⁠
