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 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.⁠

⁠
Swipe for some reflections from the previously graduated Level 2 class about their experience. 👉🏼⁠
⁠
What we hear from Level 2 graduates is that: ⁠
⁠
👑 The smaller cohort allowed even more connection to the other women in the program.⁠
⁠
👑 There was a deeper sense of boldness and softness, empowerment and surrender, belonging and agency.⁠
⁠
👑 They finally felt embodied as a healer and a woman and ready to share from the heart without fear.⁠
⁠
👑 A deep sense that the material was embodied!⁠
⁠
👑 It helped many students to move directly from the Level 1 material into Level 2 so that they could keep momentum and continue to actively integrate the knowledge with the support of teachers, staff and fellow students in the second year.⁠

April = the cool, damp heaviness of Kapha begins t April = the cool, damp heaviness of Kapha begins to collide with the rising warmth and intensity of Pitta. 🌿🔥💦⁠
⁠
We’re moving deeper and deeper into spring’s awakening… which means things can feel a little muddy, a little swollen, and then suddenly hot. So, Ayurveda says: lean into the bitter, pungent and astringent tastes right now.⁠
⁠
These tastes help dry and lighten Kapha while gently clearing heat from the blood. This supports us through things like inflammation, skin flare-ups, sore throats and that early spring “heat” in the system.⁠
⁠
(Southern hemisphere friends: you're in autumn right now, so lean into fall grounding + warming foods instead. 🍂)⁠
⁠
Here are some April allies + why they’re our plant BFFs right now:⁠
⁠
🫜 Beets (bulb + greens): support liver + blood cleansing while keeping things moving⁠
🌱 Microgreens: concentrated bitter energy to cut through heaviness⁠
🍊 Grapefruit: light, drying and helps with sluggish digestion⁠
🥬 Chard: mineral-rich + gently detoxifying for the blood⁠
🌿 Dandelion greens: classic bitter for clearing heat + supporting liver flow⁠
🫙 Fermented foods: rekindle agni, aka an instant gut boost⁠
🌾 Fennel Bulb: light, slightly sweet and aids digestion without overheating⁠
🌽 Corn: drying + grounding to counter excess moisture⁠
🌰 Cinnamon: warming + stimulates circulation and digestion⁠
🌶️ Cayenne: ignites agni + breaks up stagnation⁠
⚫ Black Pepper: sharp + penetrating for clearing channels⁠
🌿 Chives: gently pungent, helps move stuck Kapha⁠
🧅 Onion: warming + liquefies congestion⁠
🧄 Garlic: stimulating + antimicrobial⁠
🌿 Watercress: peppery + clears heat from the blood⁠
🥗 Arugula: bitter + light for spring detox support⁠
🌱 Asparagus: diuretic + helps drain excess fluid⁠
