Happy Monday! I’m back from my 2-week journey through the Southwest’s stunning National Parks. After the awe of Zion and Bryce Canyon, we continued to Monument Valley—a first for me. Being in Navajo Nation, I felt a deep ancestral presence—such a powerful and sacred place.

Our visit to the Grand Canyon was a bit impacted by smoke from the North Rim fire, which sadly destroyed the historic Grand Canyon Lodge the very morning we arrived. On our return to LA, we passed through Joshua Tree and spent our final night in Palm Springs. It was a memorable journey—I learned so much and felt truly lucky to share it with such a kind and curious group of travelers. That said, it feels good to be home!

Now that I’m back, I return to regular programming:

My Essay “Unraveling Nurture to Return to True Nature: Prakruti vs Vikruti - my story through an Ayurvedic Lens”

I’ve been working on my memoir in earnest for over a year and still haven’t found the perfect title. Once in a while, when I am inspired to brainstorm, it helps to have the themes of my story as a framework. One of them explores the idea of nature versus nurture. I believe that we are born in one way and that nurture changes us, changes our nature.

In my fourth career as an Ayurvedic Yoga Specialist, I talk a lot about the concepts of and . Prakruti is our innate nature, our unique mind-body constitution, determined at conception and influenced by genetics, ancestry, and our parents’ constitutions. Vikruti reflects the state of our current constitution at any given time, influenced by diet, lifestyle, stress, emotions, and seasonal changes. Other, more subtle factors that can affect Vikruti are environment, relationships, life choices, and internalized expectations. While Prakruti remains constant, Vikruti fluctuates based on internal and external influences. In Ayurveda, the goal is to align Vikruti back toward Prakruti to allow for physical and mental harmony and wellbeing.

The reason I find these concepts so intriguing is not only because I am fascinated by Ayurveda, but also because I am finding parallels between my story and these ancient Ayurvedic concepts. After experiencing revelation after revelation in writing my memoir, I would like to explore what I have learned based on my story.

Happy Monday, friends! Are you feeling the effects of the summer solstice yet? I am!

The summer solstice marks the peak of the sun’s power and the transition from darkness into light. It symbolizes new beginnings, expansion, and abundance. In Yoga, we celebrate the abundance of light and energy associated with the longest day of the year with practices that stimulate the solar plexus, like Sun Salutations and heart-opening poses, connecting with the sun’s energy and inner strength. Thanks to those of you who joined me for a special Awaken Yoga yesterday to practice 12 rounds of Sun Salutations to a Bija Mantra.

Speaking of Awaken Yoga, on Saturday, June 28, my class is taking place at as part of their 8-week wellness series “Rooted Summer Saturday Rituals.” Join me for yoga and stay to explore the ranch and their market. See details below!

Feeling Run Down? Looking for your Radiance?

Here are 5 Ways to Rebuild your Ojas.

In Ayurveda, Ojas is considered the essence of vitality, the subtle energy that governs immunity, strength, and resilience—both physically and emotionally. It’s the refined end-product of digestion, not just of food, but of all life experiences. When our digestion (Agni) is strong and our lifestyle is balanced, Ojas is naturally built and sustained.

Think of ojas as your body’s inner glow—it gives you a luminous complexion, steady energy, mental clarity, emotional stability, and resistance to stress and illness. And when life’s demands outpace our capacity to recover, Ojas begins to dwindle.

The good news? Ojas is something we can rebuild—gently, consistently, and intentionally.

🌿 5 Tips to Rebuild Ojas

😴 Prioritize Rest & Sleep
Deep, regular sleep is essential for restoring Ojas. Aim for early, consistent bedtimes and unplug before 9–10 p.m.

🍲 Nourishment & Hydration
Focus on Ojas-building foods, such as warm, cooked meals like kitchari, soups, ghee, dates, soaked almonds, root vegetables, and whole grains. Hydrate with warm water or herbal teas throughout the day—avoid iced drinks, which weaken agni (digestive fire).

💆🏻‍♀️ Abhyanga (oil massage)
Daily/regular oil massage calms the nervous system, supports lymph flow, and protects your subtle energy.

🐌 Slow Down & Reduce Overstimulation
Avoid multitasking. Create space for slowness and presence in your daily routine—Ojas thrives on ease. Limit screen time, noisy environments, and constant input. Stillness and quiet rebuild subtle energy.

🌳 Connect to Joy & Nature
Laughter, sunshine, and time in natural environments are deeply Ojas-building.

➡️➡️ If your body and mind are calling for restoration, I’d love to support you. Through June 30, I’m offering a free 30-minute Ayurvedic lifestyle consultation to help you tune in and explore what practices will best rebuild your inner vitality.
