One small shift with BIG effects...

Eat your largest meal for your midday meal.

The sun is the strongest between the hours of 10-2, since we are a microcosm of the macrocosm, a reflection of what is happening in nature, our agni or digestive fire is also strongest between these hours.
We want to utilize this efficiency and eat our largest meal while the sun is highest in the sky and our digestive fire blazes strongly.

We can think of breakfast as break the fast - eating a small meal to warm up the digestive fire.

Lunch - the time to eat our largest daily meal

Supper - a smaller supplement to get us through the evening.

A helpful tip I heard recently that I love...
"When the sun goes down so does your digestion."
(Can't remember where I got that from.)

And ease up on the snacks which tends to bog down the digestive system....
More on that another time.

Make the most of your agni with these simple shifts. πŸ”₯

Ayurveda is a way of life and understanding of ourselves and the world around us. It is a lens in which we view the world in its five elemental nature - ether, air, fire, water and earth and how these elements present themselves as well as how they shift and change throughout the seasons of the year and the seasons of our lives.
When we learn the language of the elements - the 20 great qualities, we begin to understand the language of nature and how we might begin to find balance, by applying the opposite, by finding the middle path.

Ayurveda is life changing, it's simple and it's for everyone.
Humans tend to complicate things. Come back to simplicity. Come back to balance. Welcome yourself to the middle path.

I'm accepting new clients this upcoming season.

Pitta season, the season of fire, is right around the corner. πŸ”₯
Ayurveda can help you to remain cool and refreshed. πŸ’¦

3 easy-peasy things I'm doing to help the transition from winter (Vata season) to spring (Kapha season)?

1. Warm water.
Our bodies want to melt the excess Kapha we have accumulated throughout the winter, just like nature wants to melt the snow. Warm water, or at the very least pass on the iced water.
Maybe with a bit of lemon! Lemon adds a bit of fire which will also help the melt.

2. MOVE.
This is the time of year to get moving again. Our bodies are craving more vigorous movement this time of year. Get outside, go for a hike, a brisk walk or maybe even a run. This is the time to get the blood pumping and the body moving. This will also help us to melt all of the extra accumulated "gunk" we have built up to get us through the winter.
We are supposed to accumulate kapha in winter to get us through those harsh rough months but now we want to cooperate with nature and shed it. Move your body. We are at our strongest of the year in this season although sometimes Kapha can be reluctant to move. You'll feel better for it. Promise!

3. Spices!
This time of year I incorporate more warming spices into my diet. I don't typically use a ton of spices since I have a lot of fire in me but in this season my body needs it and craves it. Spices such as cumin, ginger (dry), black pepper, turmeric and cinnamon heat things up, stimulate the body and keep things moving. They counteract Kapha's cool, heavy and sluggish nature.
Every notice when you eat spicy things your nose runs? THAT is kapha melting! It is what we are aiming for this season.

4. Bonus..Bright colors!
Bright colors boost the mood counteract the dull and stagnant tendencies of Kapha.

Ayurveda doesn't have to be complicated or difficult. It just means showing up with awareness...awareness of ourselves, the rhythms of nature and how we are effected by these rhythms.

When I graduated Ayurveda school, Micah made me medallions representing the 3 doshas, Vata, Pitta and Kapha.
About a year ago one of the medallions, pitta, had gone missing. I was so sad and have been looking for it ever since.
Today I found it!
It seems fitting that I found it today as we just entered the year of the horse which is all about high intensity energy, transformation, drive and action oriented leadership.
These are qualities of pitta - the dosha of fire and water.

I am so happy!

Here is to the spark of fire that resides within us all!
May this year bring you the transformation you desire.

May we be happy, may we have courage and bravery, may we be disciplined and may we transform in all the ways we desire.
