Let’s be real: the calendar flipped, but I’m still the same person I was last week. No “new year, new me” pressure here. No unrealistic resolutions that feel like a chore by February.

Instead of trying to change who I am, I’m focusing on nurturing who I am—especially during these freezing winter days. When the temperature drops, our “Agni” (digestive fire) needs a little extra love to keep our immunity strong and our energy steady.

How I’m staying balanced right now:
• Sip on Warmth: Swapping the iced drinks for ginger tea or warm lemon water to stoke the internal fire.
• Seasonal Nourishment: Leaning into root vegetables, soups, and warming spices like turmeric and cinnamon.
• Oil Pulling & Abhyanga: Keeping the skin hydrated and the lymphatic system moving when the air gets dry.
• Rest as Resistance: Accepting that winter is a time for hibernation, not just high-intensity output.

Let’s Reset Together
If you’re feeling a bit sluggish after the holidays or the cold is starting to settle into your bones, I’d love to help you find your footing.
I’m officially opening spots for my New Year Ayurvedic Reset. No detox teas or fad diets—just a personalized, grounded approach to help you feel vibrant and resilient all winter long.

DM me “RESET” to learn more.
Let’s make this year about feeling good, exactly as you are.

Camel pose, Ustrasana, is one of those shapes that wakes up the whole body and reminds us that life moves forward, even when the year is almost over.

On this full moon, the last one of the year, I love practicing Ustrasana. It opens the heart, lifts the chest, and gives the back a delicious stretch. There is something celebratory about it, almost like leaning back to look at the moon and say thank you.

In Ayurveda, winter needs warmth, movement, circulation. Camel pose brings heat, especially through the chest and upper back, where stagnation likes to hide. When we open this area, energy can flow. Breath becomes deeper. The mood becomes lighter. The mind, which easily contracts in winter, suddenly feels spacious.

This pose reminds us that joy is medicine. Expansion is medicine. A little drama is medicine. Tonight, as the moon shines bright and round, try kneeling on a mat, pressing the hips forward, lifting the heart, and gently opening. Stay for a few breaths and enjoy the sensation of release, relief, and celebration.

It is an invitation to let the year go and welcome a new one with softness and courage.

If you want guidance or want to explore how yoga can support your dosha this winter, reach out.

As the days get colder, warming spices are perfect to include in your diet. According to Ayurveda, spices like turmeric, cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper, cardamom, and ginger not only add flavor but also support your body this winter:

Turmeric: balances inflammation and supports immunity

Cinnamon: warms the body and aids digestion

Nutmeg: calms the mind and supports restful sleep

Black pepper: enhances digestion and helps the body absorb nutrients

Cardamom: soothes the digestive system and uplifts the mind

Ginger: stimulates digestion, warms the body, and strengthens immunity

Add these spices to teas, soups, porridge, or baked treats to keep your body balanced and cozy this season.

When we nourish the body with the right foods, we activate its natural intelligence and capacity to heal.
Ayurveda reminds us that well-chosen daily habits are often much more powerful than any remedy.

I’ve been using Brahmi regularly and I have to say, this little Ayurvedic herb has become such a staple for me. For those who haven’t heard of it, it’s been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years, mostly as a brain tonic.

What I love about Brahmi is how it helps with mental clarity and focus. On days when my mind feels scattered or I’m juggling too much, it really seems to make a difference. It’s traditionally known for supporting memory and cognitive function, which is probably why students in India have been using it forever.

But it’s more than just a brain booster. Brahmi is an adaptogen, meaning it helps your body manage stress more effectively. I’ve noticed I feel calmer and less overwhelmed when I’m consistent with it.

Some other benefits worth mentioning are its potential to ease anxiety, improve sleep quality, and even promote healthier hair when used as an oil. Plus it has antioxidant properties that support overall wellness.

You can take it as a powder, capsules, tea, or use the oil topically. I usually go with the powder mixed into my morning routine, but the oil is amazing for scalp massages too.

One thing to remember is that Brahmi works gradually. It’s not an instant fix, you need to use it consistently for a few weeks to really feel the effects. And as always, check with someone knowledgeable if you’re on any medications.

Would love to hear from others who use Brahmi. What’s your experience been like?

When the mornings turn crisp and the air gets a bit drier, our digestion loves warmth, softness, and simplicity.
One of the most nourishing things you can start your day with right now is a bowl of stewed spiced apples.

Gently cooked with cinnamon, cardamom, or ginger, they:
✨ kindle digestion
✨ calm the nervous system
✨ support regular elimination
✨ bring grounding and steadiness to the whole day

It’s a small practice with big effects — a way to warm the belly, soften the edges, and sync your system with the season.

A bowl of comfort, ancient wisdom, and real nourishment.

If you’re feeling dry, stiff, or a little anxious lately, you’re experiencing Vata Season, according to Ayurveda. The cold, dry, and windy qualities of the season are increasing in all of us.

The beautiful, simple solution? Abhyanga (warm oil self-massage).

It’s 15 minutes of luxurious self-love before you shower, and it directly counteracts Vata’s draining qualities.

Ayurvedic Benefits

When you practice Abhyanga, you are actively choosing to:

Ground Your Nerves: Calms the nervous system to reduce stress and anxiety.

Nourish Your Skin: Intensely moisturizes dry, flaky skin.

Improve Sleep: Prepares the mind and body for deep, restful sleep.

Lubricate Joints: Keeps joints flexible and reduces stiffness.

Choose Your Oil Wisely

The best oil depends on your constitution (Dosha):

Vata Types (Dry/Cold): Use warming Sesame Oil or nourishing Almond Oil.

Pitta Types (Hot/Inflamed): Use cooling oils like Coconut Oil or Ghee.

Kapha Types (Heavy/Slow): Use lighter, stimulating oils like Mustard Oil.

A Crucial Warning

Please DO NOT practice Abhyanga if you feel heavy, sluggish, or have a thick coating on your tongue (signs of high Ama—Ayurvedic toxins). Applying oil on top of Ama can trap those toxins deeper in your tissues.
If you suspect Ama, your body needs a gentle cleanse first.

Ready to Customize Your Wellness?

Knowing which oil to use, and when your body is truly ready for it, is key to getting real results from Ayurveda.
