TheShaktiSchool

My entire life, I’ve been looking for something My entire life, I’ve been looking for something that feels like a real home. Like many of you, I come from a deeply imperfect family lineage, an imperfect religious tradition and a broken culture. Over the 2+ decades of spiritual dedication, I have finally started to FEEL how painful it is to feel like I don’t really belong anywhere. ⁠
⁠
And guess what? Our INCREDIBLE spirit-based, feminine-form Ayurveda School is also an imperfect home. ⁠
⁠
Because that’s the rub…⁠
⁠
There is no perfect family, lover or spiritual institution that can fully take away that DEEP soul ache of wanting to belong. ⁠
⁠
In my experience, that can only be an inside job. ⁠
⁠
And The Shakti School does a GREAT job at providing the space, community, teachers and teachings to give you room for what you are truly longing for. Not another method or identity, but a place to come home to yourself. That listening is what shaped this school and the community that holds it.⁠
⁠
We're not perfect.⁠
We're not fully enlightened beings.⁠
We're just regular women like YOU that want a home where we can unravel in a very loving way.⁠
⁠
If you're ready for your soul to not shout truth, but really learn how to listen...⁠
⁠
If you're ready to not rip off all the veils that are blocking your light, but just soften them enough so that they can just gently fall away in a way that melts you and other people...⁠
⁠
I really would love to see your face in our school January 14th.⁠
⁠
In a world that is obsessed with stimulation and expansion and attainment, I want to give you a place where you can feel that which has just been forgotten. We are not a place that's going to put anything new in you. We are a place of remembering.⁠
⁠
If you're ready to awaken through nourishment, to heal through laughter and community and goodness, if you're ready to transform through love, I know that The Shakti School is the perfect place for you.⁠
⁠
We do have limited spots. So if you're feeling the call, I encourage you to join us. We can’t wait to welcome you into our community. ❤️⁠
⁣⁣⁠
🪐 Comment AYURVEDASCHOOL for more info on our 2026 Level 1 class that starts on January 14th⁣. ⁣
Unless we connect with the deepest part of ourselv Unless we connect with the deepest part of ourselves…all the New Year’s resolutions will be futile. 

All these plans at self-improvement are just another mask we wear. 

Eventually, when we fail (because Lord knows we will…), we may feel like we are bad, unloveable…etc. And the cycle starts again.
⁠⠀
So, as we approach the New Year, here is my message to you (and as always, to myself)⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You are already inherently good.⁠⠀

From that place, you can begin a spiritual practice that supports the deeply soulful woman you already are.

Instead of setting resolutions, I like to think about beginning intentional habits that will support any goals I might have for the New Year.

The key is being connected to your higher self, the part of you that intuitively knows what is best for you and your success. 

And that requires getting quiet and connecting to your heart. This is what every woman *actually* needs more of.

❤️‍🩹 Heal unresolved wounds that are still weighing on you. Matters of the heart can be difficult to heal. And more often than not it takes a lot of time. If needed, work with a professional in somatic experience who can help you navigate that space.

😌 Manage your stress levels. Stress plays a huge role in emotional well being (which also leads to a lot of physiological effects as well). Become more familiar with the ways you disconnect so that you can best prepare yourself for when it comes up.

🙏🏼 Take time for prayer. Praying doesn’t have to be a religious act. Prayer can be mantra reciting, it can be through repetition of a positive affirmation, or it can look totally different.

📝 Keep a journal. Getting your thoughts on paper will help you to sort through your emotional hang ups or will simply help to process the day. It is in journaling when I gain some of my best inspiration.

🧘🏼‍♀️ Manage your time + make the time to unwind and relax. In our go, go, go society there can often be pressure associated with non-stop doing. Make space for doing nothing. It is in that space where your heart will have the time to heal and make peace.
⁠⠀
Peace and fulfillment comes from finding your center. May we all have the experience of true richness in 2026.
In folk wisdom traditions, this time of year invit In folk wisdom traditions, this time of year invites us to descend, listen and let the darkness work on us.⁠
⁠
So, if you are still hoping to drop into your heart and uncover how this past year’s heartbreaks, hurts or life initiations can become portals to your awakening, I invite you to carve out the time to tune into our free class Winter Solstice Initiation: Your Wound is the Way before this year comes to a close.⁠
⁠
This class explores how winter invites emotional alchemy and how you can turn your scars into wisdom and stillness into inner authority.⁠
⁠
You’ll learn why nothing is wasted, and why the light returns only after we allow ourselves to go into the dark.⁠
⁠
It’s not too late to embrace the transformational nature of the season and walk into 2026 seated in your soul.⁠

🌿 “Do you actually teach herbs and spices in 🌿 “Do you actually teach herbs and spices in Ayurveda School? I want to use plants in real life, not just read about them.”⁠
⁠
Yes. And this is one of the biggest reasons women join us.⁠
⁠
While The Shakti School is a certification program to become an Ayurvedic Wellness Coach, Level 1 is also designed as a deeply practical, embodied initiation into living Ayurveda. And that starts with your own kitchen, routines and daily remedies. You’ll learn how to work with plants, spices and rhythms in a way that feels intuitive, accessible and alive, not overwhelming or clinical.⁠
⁠
In our Plant Pharmacy focused curriculum, Ayurveda becomes hands-on and woven into everyday life. This is about building confidence with herbs and routines you can actually use for yourself first, and eventually for others if you choose.⁠
⁠
Inside our year together, you’ll learn how to:⁠
⁠
 ✔ Work with common Ayurvedic herbs and understand their energetics and properties⁠
 ✔ Use digestive herbs and daily tonics to support Agni and immunity⁠
 ✔ Explore rasayanas and rejuvenative formulas that nourish vitality and ojas⁠
 ✔ Support the mind and nervous system with gentle herbal allies⁠
 ✔ Align your fall and spring routines with nature’s rhythms to prevent imbalance before it begins⁠
⁠
Whether you dream of becoming a coach or simply want to reclaim your relationship with plants, food and seasonal wisdom, this module teaches you how to become your own first herbalist. Rooted, informed and deeply connected to the natural world.⁠
⁠
The journey begins in less than three weeks. 🌼 Are you ready to learn more about feminine-form Ayurveda? 👇🏼 ⁠
