There is probably no specific point in time, where the authentic self leaves and the culturally-accepted version of the self emerges. Rather, there seems to be a slow progression of covering the true self that occurs over time. Somewhere during childhood, or during the teen years, this culturally-created self fully emerges, in search of acceptance.

Let's end this. Let's just BE who we were born as and who we came to BE. Accept yourself for who you are. When we do this for ourselves, we can do this for others.

In a world that rewards constant doing, Ayurveda invites us to slow down and simply be. True healing begins when we stop pushing and start listening. When we honor rest, breath, and presence.

Marma Therapy is like a reset button for your system. Using warm oils, intuitive pressure, and pranic energy healing, it awakens your body’s vital points and encourages deep restoration.

🌿 I am currently offering Ayurvedic Assessments, Marma Therapy, breathwork, and personalized yoga practices designed for your unique body type and needs.

Building new foundations in life will take time. Dismantling old belief systems within ourselves can be messy, confusing, and sometimes bring up painful emotions. Questioning what was relevant in the past and comparing it to what is relevant to us now, can feel strange.

But having courage doesn’t mean we won’t feel these emotions. The courage to change who we are, how we act, and questioning our beliefs can be the bravest things we ever do in our lives.

"As long as we’ve been aware, most social groups and cultures urge humanity to think “this way or that”, to do this thing and not the other…be a part of this group and avoid that one. Yet what this has done for us humans is created a barrier of separation between our brothers and sisters on the planet, and has created a feeling and idea of separation within our own true selves. It’s like we’ve been taught to ignore the inner voice that will allow us to to take action (or non-action) as the true expression of who we really are, just so that we feel like we belong to a group.

In this past year, in my own practice of radical self-acceptance, I began to wonder if we allowed ourselves to practice this level of compassion and acceptance of self, would we cultivate an inner peace and knowing that we belong no matter what? To ourselves, the earth, to All That Is? And from this feeling of self-belonging, would we remember our connection to one another, that we DO belong, no matter our thoughts or beliefs?"

When we’re hurrying through each day, we often don’t get to enjoy what we’ve accomplished. We miss moments with loved ones, beautiful scenes in nature, and perhaps even important lessons or messages that circumstances in life provide for us.

In fact, there is no need to push ourselves through time... we are always moving! The Earth doesn’t stop spinning (thanks for that, by the way, Earth!), the seasons never cease to come and go, our body systems are always working…so there’s really no need for us to hurry through. We have a natural invitation to follow the flow of life, the flow of our bodies, the seasons of the earth and the seasons of life. This flow will sometimes propel us forward more quickly, and sometimes the flow will invite us to move more slowly into each season.

Our existence on the planet, and the true purpose of being here, conscious and alive, is very much a mystery…and yet, within this mystery, there are clues to experiencing peace and joy. These clues are not how we can force our personal or group will on another, but rather accept one another with compassion.

“Ayurveda teaches us to cherish our innate nature: ‘to love and honor who we are,’ not as what people think or tell us, ‘who we should be.’” – Prana Gogia

Ayurveda isn’t about fixing who you are, it’s about remembering who you’ve always been. This ancient path invites you to return to your natural rhythm, your unique constitution, and your inner truth.

The act of always “looking ahead” is such a deep part of modern western culture. I’m the type of person who loves planning, dreaming, and thinking of the future. Like many, I’m sure, I have big dreams and I tend to get excited about the outcome—forgetting to focus on the path in front of me, the step I am taking, and what is around me in each moment.

But taking time to walk more slowly and deliberately, we will notice the beauty and joy that is available in every moment. There will be more opportunity to experience gratitude, and live a richer, more meaningful life.

There’s powerful wisdom in nature’s flow. The Earth doesn’t resist the inevitable changes; it simply allows them to unfold. Maybe part of the challenge for us humans is the constant pressure to control and hold onto things. But embracing the idea that everything is part of a greater cycle—life, death, and rebirth—can be incredibly freeing.

Letting go of resistance doesn't mean we stop caring or acting. It means accepting the natural rhythm of things, trusting that change, even when hard, brings something new and often beautiful. It's like the way seeds need the darkness of the soil to grow or how a forest needs fire to clear space for new life.
How do you think you could start to release resistance in your own life? What would that look like for you?

"Over the past few years I have steadily become more aware of life’s process, and my journey. I have become more willing to stand in the uncertainty and focus on the lessons I am learning, and take in my surroundings. This has helped me to cultivate more gratitude and joy as I live more mindfully. Rather than chasing the future, I have been learning to look to the future, knowing where I may be headed, but not necessarily how it will unfold.

Because if I choose to live a life chasing the dream means I will always be seeking what is “out there”, yet the dream I am living is always right here, in this moment."

Another strong belief I hold is that we are NOT meant to go it alone. We are meant to seek out support so that we can learn and grow together. Sometimes that support finds us before we even ask, but sometimes the lesson to learn is simply about asking for help.

Life in Balance

As we begin to understand that the body and mind are not separate, and that our thoughts, words and actions effect our physical and emotional state, more people are being drawn to holistic means of wellness. More people are approaching wellness from a whole-system perspective and are deepening the understanding that healing comes from within. This empowers us as individuals to live with more awareness in what we are putting into our bodies, how we move our bodies, and how we process our emotions. Reiki is a beautiful tool that helps bring more of this awareness. Reiki helps the mind and body to heal itself, brings inner peace, helps to cope with stress, and process uncomfortable emotions to bring overall balance to our lives.
