I call this “The Journal” instead of “The Blog,” because it’s personal.
Ayurveda is the best writing teacher I’ve ever had. The world of mung dhal, dinacharya, and five elements seems like an odd place to study my craft, but the moment I began to study Ayurveda I began to write daily – in my morning journaling practice, my public journal...
(audio version below) I probably don’t need to tell you what a dinacharya is. After all, there are a million Ayurvedic practitioners who have devoted blogs to this. I’ve ghostwritten some of them myself. So I’m going to tell you what Ayurveda's teachings around daily...
(audio version below) I never knew what protection meant until I became a mama. I’d lived a pretty untethered life until I got pregnant at 37. Some might even call it selfish. I traveled where I wanted, when I wanted. I never questioned taking a 90-minute yoga class...
