There are so many ways to meditate — on and off the cushion.
Metta (loving-kindness), moving or walking meditation, mindfulness, chakra or energy-based practices, vipassana, mantra, and more.

When I teach, I love introducing my students to this range of meditations — hoping that at least one will resonate, feel natural, and eventually become part of their daily rhythm.
Because meditation isn’t about mastering a single technique; it’s about finding what helps you connect — simply and consistently.

And while I’ve trained in many traditions, my personal daily practice is Transcendental Meditation (TM). I love its simplicity: just twenty minutes, twice a day, using a personal mantra that effortlessly allows the mind to settle into deep stillness — and the body to release accumulated tension and stress from the nervous system.

That release is profound: when the nervous system is clear and rested, we naturally think more clearly, find creative solutions, and move through the day feeling grounded, calm, and relaxed.

As Maharishi Mahesh Yogi beautifully said:

“Water the root to enjoy the fruit.”

When we nourish the source — the quiet field within — life on the surface naturally becomes more harmonious.

If you’d like to learn how to meditate or deepen your personal practice, I’d love to guide you. 🌿

This week in Judaism is one of the holiest and most transformative of the year. The High Holidays – Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur – mark a sacred period of reflection, renewal, and return.

Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, begins the “Ten Days of Awe,” a time of introspection when we look honestly at our lives, our choices, and our relationships. It is both a celebration of creation and an invitation to begin again with clearer intention.

Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is the culmination of this journey. It is a day dedicated to prayer, fasting, and seeking forgiveness – from ourselves, from others, and from the Divine. At its heart, Yom Kippur is about release: letting go of the mistakes of the past year and stepping into a space of humility, honesty, and possibility.

Together, these holy days remind us of the cycles of life – the inevitability of imperfection, the power of forgiveness, and the courage it takes to realign ourselves with our deepest values.

In the quiet of fasting and prayer, and in the communal strength of gathering together, we are invited to soften, to repair what has been broken, and to open our hearts to a new year filled with compassion and purpose.

In Ayurveda, the focus is not only on treating illness once it appears but on preventing disease before it manifests, maintaining health through daily and seasonal practices, and restoring balance when subtle imbalances arise. As we move into autumn, a season of transition and heightened Vata, it is the ideal time to support the body and mind with an Ayurvedic cleanse. This gentle reset helps improve digestion, strengthen immunity, and bring clarity and balance as we align with the rhythms of the new season.

If you are interested in joining the upcoming autumn cleanse, please message me for details.

The magic of early September is palpable here in Tuscany. The air is still warm with summer’s memory, but there’s a certain crispness that whispers of change. For me, this time is full of beautiful new beginnings: the start of a new school year, my birthday, and the Jewish New Year.
This feeling of renewal is perfectly aligning with something I’m planning for early October: a transformative Ayurvedic reset cleanse. It’s an opportunity to truly hit the refresh button on my body and mind after a busy year, guided by Vedic wisdom and nourishing practices.
And the best part? You can join me! I’ll be sharing all the details on how you can participate from anywhere. I’m so excited to share this journey with you. Stay tuned!

Ghee is one of those simple kitchen treasures that’s been cherished in Ayurveda for thousands of years, and it’s easy to see why. This golden, nutty butter isn’t just delicious — it’s nourishing for your body, mind, and digestion. Ayurveda calls ghee tridoshic, meaning it can balance all three doshas when used in moderation, and it’s considered medhya, which supports clarity of mind and intellect. It’s also fantastic for digestion, helps the body absorb nutrients, and even has anti-inflammatory properties.

The best part? Making ghee at home is surprisingly simple — and using the best organic butter you can find makes all the difference. Grass-fed, pasture-raised, unsalted organic butter gives your ghee a richer golden color, a more nutty aroma, and better nutritional quality. To make it, melt the butter slowly over low heat, let it separate into foam, clarified liquid, and milk solids, skim the foam, and when the solids turn golden brown and the aroma is rich and nutty, strain it into a jar. That’s it! Once cooled, it keeps at room temperature for months, ready to use in cooking, baking, or even stirred into warm milk or herbal tea for a soothing boost.

Incorporating ghee into your daily routine is easy, too. A little drizzle over steamed veggies or rice, a spoon in your morning oatmeal, or using it as a cooking fat can make a big difference in how nourishing and satisfying your meals feel. Beyond the flavor, it’s a gentle way to support your body, your digestion, and even your vitality over time. Once you make it at home with high-quality organic butter, it’s hard not to fall in love with both the taste and the ritual of it.

Your pulse is more than just a heartbeat—it’s a window into your body and mind.

In Ayurveda, subtle changes in the pulse can reveal imbalances in your doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) before they turn into bigger issues.

These small shifts—like changes in rhythm or strength—can hint at stress, digestion challenges, or energy fluctuations. Once we notice them, simple adjustments in diet, daily habits, or mindfulness can help restore balance.

Your pulse quietly signals what your body needs, giving you a chance to take care of yourself early. How amazing is that?

You know that feeling when your body actually wakes up instead of you just dragging yourself out of bed? That’s what morning yoga does. I’ve been doing my Ashtanga practice first thing lately, and my body feels alive, my joints happy, and my mind clear.

Moving through postures first thing in the morning stretches out stiffness, wakes up muscles, and gets energy flowing for the whole day. Follow it up with a little meditation, and suddenly everything just clicks. My morning routines includes my ayurvedic hygiene, ashtanga, and then TM.

Giving your body that first hour in the morning feels like hitting the reset button. Try it.

Happy Mindful Monday!

Mondays can feel like a fresh start—or a fresh mountain to climb. That’s why taking even just a few mindful moments can make all the difference. Pause, take a deep breath, and check in with yourself: How’s your mind today? How’s your energy? Even a short meditation, a slow cup of tea, or a walk outside can set the tone for the week.

Mindfulness isn’t about doing more—it’s about being present with what’s already here. So let’s start the week with a little calm, clarity, and awareness. Your mind and your week will thank you.

We’re in the heart of August — still summer, but with the quiet sense that change is on the horizon. These are the last weeks of long evenings, warm fields, and afternoons that stretch lazily into night. Soon enough, school and work routines will return, but for now we can savor the sweetness that late summer offers.

In Ayurveda, this is a moment to ground and nourish before the breezy energy of autumn sets in. The fruits of the season — like the wild blackberries now ripening in the campo — remind us to enjoy nature’s sweetness while it lasts. Each berry holds the warmth of the sun and the nourishment our bodies crave as we prepare for the transition ahead.

So let’s enjoy these weeks fully: barefoot in the grass, hands stained with blackberry juice, hearts ready for the season to come.
