My local community decided to start these mental health fairs to raise awareness and provide resources for struggling families and kids.Our community is well aware that there are kids and even parents that need support and deserve to know what local resources are available to them. I am honored to have been invited to this event and share some holistic practices that support mental health. There were plenty of conventional and professional therapy resources there so I love the fact that they wanted this to be all encompassing and approach it holistically too.

When we cleanse our body, it’s just as important to cleanse our mind and the space around us! Ask me how! I’d love to work with you!

This little green is one of the few that I actually crave in the Spring time. As ridiculous as it sounds, I could eat handfuls of this stuff. I take that as a sign that my body needs it. Cilantro is great at detoxing the body while keeping the liver cool. This little green pulls out heavy metals and draws them to our urinary tract so they can be eliminated.

Don’t like cilantro? Try cooking with coriander seed (the seed of the plant) which tastes quite different! Coriander seed has the same benefits, if not more, as it is capable of getting deep into the tissues, as deep as the bone marrow, to pull out dangerous toxins.

Vibrational energy is what makes up the particles, atoms, and cells in our body. Scientists refer to it as quantum physics. So where does this vibrational energy even come from then?

In Ayurveda, this universal energy is called Prana and it comes from the sun and the moon. So as water flows down the mountains, it receives this high vibrational energy which is then passed to all living things that consume it. Our bodies need a consistent flow of Prana in order for our cells to maintain intelligence and function optimally.

But water that has been chemically treated contains little to no Prana. And even if it is filtered, purified, or has undergone reverse osmosis, this doesn’t bring the Prana back.

So if you are given a choice, choose spring water! And the more alkaline the better!

Happy Hydrating! 💦

Springtime is when our bodies benefit from lighter food choices, especially those that are detoxifying. As the weather warms up and our channels start to open, our bodies need support to release toxins and eliminate excess Kapha Dosha from the body. Taro Root binds with toxins and helps our body to eliminate them, while brussel sprouts and asparagus are packed of nutrients, fiber, and support healthy blood sugar levels and weight. Some foods to reduce during the spring include cow milk, cow cheese, beef, pork, nuts, wheat, and sugar.

“Sliding Into a Healthy New Year”, an event I was honored to be invited to by city’s district. A variety of vendors and businesses were present with the intent of sharing and offering information and goodies for the local school district administrative employees. Here’s to a Healthy New Year and the continuation of sharing our wisdom with each other. 💕

Restrictive diets, prolonged fasting, or skipping meals is not recommended in Ayurveda during the onset of the winter season. As temperatures drop our bodies naturally crave more calories and will benefit from warm and well spiced foods from all 6 tastes. Keep in mind that quality does matter and enjoy the start of the season!

“How do you get your kids to eat like that?”

Me: “Like what?”

“All those vegetables and organic meat.”

Me: “Oh, well that’s what I cook and what they are used to and like. Plus, kids follow by example so it’s easy.”

“But doesn’t that make it difficult for them later in life? Where are they going to find these special foods?”

Me: “Umm, you mean REAL food?”

This was a question I was asked from a family member. I almost had no words. Have we really come to the point where real food is so rare or special or hard to come by that we should not even try? Of course, for some, yes it is hard to find, as there are plenty of food deserts in our country. But, the effort to find, cook, and put real food on the table is a worthwhile investment for yourself and your family.

It’s an act of love. 💕

One of my favorite ways to bake is taking a beloved recipe and making it Ayurvedic by suiting it more specially to the season. One of the few cookbooks that I’ve held onto over the years is “Run Fast. Cook Fast. Eat Slow.” by Shalane Flanagan & Elyse Kopecky. There are 3 versions of their Superhero Muffins all of which are delicious.

As the Fall Season is well underway, it’s important not to jump into the heavy and warming foods too quickly. The build up of Pitta heat in the body from the summer needs some time to release.

Originally calling for walnuts, honey, and a hefty dose of cinnamon, this recipe of Apple Carrot Muffins has been modified to still give it the comfort Fall Season feel without being too heavy or heating.

So be your own superhero and start baking! 😊

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup tapioca flour
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 tsp cardamom
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt (Soma Salt if you have it!)
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
1 cup finely chopped apple (peeled first)
1 cup shredded or grated carrots
3 eggs
6 Tbsp of ghee butter
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

1. Combine the flours, oats, spices, baking soda, salt, apple, carrots, and raisins (if using) in a large bowl.
2. Combine the eggs, butter, maple syrup, and vanilla separately and preferably in a blender. Whip it up.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir with a spoon until combined. The batter will be a little thick.
4. Bake in muffin cups at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes(ish).
5. Enjoy with a cup of rose, chamomile, nettle leaf, or peppermint tea!

Sending lots of love! Happy baking! 💕

Slipping up on healthy eating habits or an exercise regime does not mean you have failed, nor does it mean that your health still can’t improve. You may have fallen off the wagon and gotten back on many times, but sometimes it’s a wise move to try a different wagon altogether. We are holistic beings meaning that our physical health only makes up 20% of the whole body. We have our mental body, emotional body, subtle body, and spiritual body too.

How’s your mental and emotional and spiritual health? Consider placing your focus on one of these areas.

Because when our emotional, mental, and spiritual health improve, it can give us the motivation and strength we need to then focus on our physical health.

I see Ayurveda and Western Modern Medicine as two sides of an equation, both of which play an important role. Ayurveda is a whole system of healing that focuses on the body, mind, and spirit and understands the true root cause of a disease or illness. Western Modern Medicine uses drugs or surgery to treat the symptoms of a disease or illness.

Western Modern Medicine is capable of saving lives in an emergency when it happens. It can perform miracles. But after being treated, when questions arise about how a disease or illness can be prevented in the first place, this system of medicine doesn’t have much left to give.

Jump to the other side of the equation and you have Ayurveda, a system of healing that focuses on prevention and root cause. It educates and teaches us how to understand our own constitution so we can take better care of ourselves, reducing the risk of cancers and many other terminal illnesses that often scare us.

Both of these systems of medicine are necessary, and it is important for your own healing journey to understand the difference. 💜
