Happy March!
As we enter the month which holds the true beginning of Spring, I am back to work at home in Floyd, VA but still glowing from my time in Costa Rica last month.
The Thriving Alongside Mother Nature: Yoga & Sacred Creativity Women's Retreat that I recently led in Costa Rica,...
Yesterday was a special new moon Lunar New Year, also known as the Chinese New Year. We are entering the year of the Wood Dragon.
Of all the animals in the Chinese Zodiac, only dragons are mythical. This means we are entering into a year when unprecedented things could happen - where long...

This reflection blew my heart wide open....
The Vitality Circle can give you your life back!
This is what Ellice Curry-Tucker had to say about her evolution in the Vitality Circle (watch the video):
"It’s amazing how much pain prevents you from being able to enjoy life!
I have lost 30 pounds
My cholesterol decreased

There was a solar eclipse yesterday. While that might seem interesting in astrological terms, I think it is also very interesting from a psycho-social perspective too. Solar eclipses are shown to bring people together as shared in the article "The Social Effects of an Awesome Solar Eclipse"...
Happy October!
As the weather grows cooler and the nights grow longer, perhaps you are feeling drawn to make changes in how you are living day-to-day.
This is totally seasonally appropriate and is actually part of living an Ayurvedic lifestyle.
Have you heard the word Dinacharya?
Dina- daily...
What an incredible Heartfelt Wellbeing retreat we had last weekend at the Prama Institute in Marshall, NC! Eighteen phenomenal women came from all over the US to gather in community to explore end of summer wisdom through Yoga, Ayurveda and Creativity over 4 days.
We laughed, cried,...
We live on a living organism we call Earth. If you believe in this principle, known as the Gaia Hypothesis, and you have also been following the warming trend that is happening on our planet, it is very easy to come to the conclusion that Gaia has a fever.
In a living organism, fevers...
Thanks to all who attended the Summer Women's Wisdom Workshop. It was pure magic as the summertime empowering energy flowed within the gathered group. I love teaching Ayurveda. I love seeing how it changes lives for the better, beyond wildest dreams.

Do you feel alone on...
