FREE RECIPE FRIDAY ... you had me at tahini!! 😍

ROASTED CARROT WHITE BEAN & TAHINI SOUP (this soup is so freaking good!)

You'll need:
18 carrots, medium, chopped
2 TBS EVOO, divided
1 yellow onion, medium, diced
3 stalks celery, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 C vegetable broth
1 can white navy beans, drained & rinsed
1 tsp turmeric
1/4 C tahini
1/2 lemon, juiced
Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)

Then you'll:
👉 Preheat your oven to 375ºF, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
👉 In a large bowl, toss the chopped carrots with half of the olive oil. Spread them
over the baking sheet and roast for 40 minutes, tossing halfway through cooking.
👉 In a large pot, heat the rest of the olive oil. Add the onion and celery, cook for
7-10 min or until softened. Then add the garlic and cook for 2 to 3 more
min.
👉Add the roasted carrots, vegetable broth, white beans, turmeric, and tahini into
the pot. Use an immersion blender to puree until smooth. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste. Divide between bowls and enjoy!

(I sprinkled pumpkin seeds on top of the soup and added a giant slice of toasted sourdough smothered in ghee on the side ) 🤩

YOGA BRUNCH CLUB 📚
I’m bringing back Yoga Books & Brunch Club as a quarterly virtual gathering.

📚 September 13 - Yoga Body, Buddha Mind by Cyndi Lee

I’ll share details as each date approaches.

The good people at Yuka bring us their top rated lip balms; all of them rated at 100/100.

Do you see one that you especially like?

Winter is here and your lips deserve some extra love 🩵 Cold, dry air can wreak havoc on your pout, but the right lip balm can be your ultimate winter hero. It locks in moisture, soothes cracks, and keeps your lips smooth and hydrated, even in the chilliest weather. But beware! Some sticks contain...

LEARNING + COMMUNITY
As we move toward spring, I’ll be offering a few opportunities to explore seasonal balance more deeply.

On February 21, I’m teaching A Yogi’s Guide to the Seasons: Kapha + Spring, a yoga workshop designed to help you transition out of winter with clarity and ease. See link below.

In March, we’ll begin the Ayurvedic Spring Community Cleanse, a gentle, supportive way to clear stagnation and prepare for the new season. 🍏

These offerings follow the rhythm of the year rather than fighting it. Hope to see you at one or both.

The Seasonal On-Ramp ...
January has a reputation.

We move through the holidays, exhale on December 31, and then wake up on January 1 ready to fix everything. New habits. New goals. New energy. Hit the ground running.

But what if January isn’t a starting line?

What if it’s an on-ramp?

An on-ramp doesn’t ask you to floor it. It asks you to merge gradually, orient yourself, and find your pace. This year, I’m inviting you to think of January that way. Less force. Less urgency. More grounding.

When we replenish before we push forward, the year unfolds differently.

Mantra of the Month

LAM, the seed sound of the root chakra. It’s associated with grounding, stability, and our sense of safety in the world.

When life feels exhausting or unstable, returning to the root brings us back into our bodies. LAM connects us to the earth element and reminds us that we are supported.
Let this be a practice of landing, not striving.

How refreshing! ❤️

What if we shifted our perspective to see that each phase of life is simply another evolution…one that shapes who we become, bit by bit? Take , for instance. Instead of viewing it as a season to dread or one of decline, it can be embraced as an entry into a deeper, more natural purpose. The Japanese call reaching your true purpose “ikigai.”

As for menopause itself, it’s known in Japan as “kōnenki”, meaning “renewal years.” It’s understood as a time when women honor their strength, wisdom, and an expanded sense of self. And it’s a mindset worth adopting, one that frames menopause not as a loss, but as a meaningful, well-earned arrival.

AYURVEDA 101
The dosha that reigns supreme over springtime?

Kapha.🌱

Consisting of both earth and water elements, kapha has the qualities of being heavy, slow, dense, dull, oily, and cold. According to Ayurvedic anatomy, Kapha's home base in the body is the chest and lungs. So when the scales tip towards kapha excess, you can expect higher-than-normal mucous production, lethargy, lots of daytime naps, slower digestion, and weight gain.

Keeping in mind the Principle of Opposites which states "like increases like and opposites balance", how might we shift our yoga practice to counter these characteristics? Any ideas?
