How inspiring it has been to watch these venerable monks on their journey spreading so much Love and Peace with every step they take. Just seeing their pictures, hearing their chants and talks and their determination to continue each day as best they can reminds us that Peace starts from within. Remember that wherever you go, there you are ☮️

Did you know that the color of your tongue can detect imbalances in your body? One in particular is your gut health, like the level and nature of toxicity, dosha imbalances, and how strong your digestion is or how much it lacks.

Some benefits that come with practicing tongue scraping regularly include: Better digestion, removal of bad breath, immune boosting and taste bud activation.

What does your tongue say about you?

Mindful eating focuses on your experience when eating. It is eating with intent and being present with your meal. Noticing its texture, smells, and flavors. It encourages you to listen to your body to eat when it is hungry and to stop when you are full. Mindful eating helps not only improve your relationship with food, but also helps with reduction of stress and anxiety and may help with digestion and weight management.

So put down your phone, turn off devices, and use your senses to enjoy and explore your meal. Chew slowly and thoroughly and be patient.

Our world is going through a collective shift, whether it is through climate disasters, political differences/approaches, individual struggles, etc. It’s during this time that we remind each other to look within. Take a moment to meditate. Breathe in each thought and feeling passing through, and let it go as you exhale. There is no perfect way to meditate. So take a moment and silence the noise of the world, and reconnect with your Self.

Kapha Season is here! Late winter and early spring is considered Kapha season, with qualities such as cool, damp, and heavy. These can manifest into things like congestion, mucus, and lacking in energy.

A tip to make it through this season is focusing on practices to help balance Kapha. Practices may include foods that are light and warming to the body, movement such as exercise, and grounding yourself by spending more time outside, in nature.

Masala Chai (Indian Spiced Tea)

Chai! There are literally hundreds of recipes for Indian Spiced Tea (Masala Chai) and each one with its special twist. Here is the way it is prepared outside of the Tilak Ayurved Mahavidyalaya in Pune for the Ayurvedic medical students taking a break between classes.

Quantity: For 2 cups

Ingredients:

1 inch Ginger root

¼ inch Cinnamon stick

¼ tsp. Cardamom powder

1/8 tsp. Ground Nutmeg

4 Cloves (whole)

¼ cup Milk, rice milk or soy milk

1 tsp. Black tea

1 tsp. Honey (stevia, agave)

Procedure: To a small pot add 2 cups of water, all the herbal ingredients and the milk. Do not add the black tea or honey yet. Bring to a gentle boil. Now add the black tea and let the mixture simmer. After letting simmer for 2 to three minutes, depending how strong you want the tea, strain into kettle and serve. Only then add the honey as per requirement into the individual cups. Enjoy!
