There’s something about the mouthfeel of pudding that makes it especially a sensual treat. My favorite way to get most pleasure out of this week’s pumpkin pudding: I swirl my spoon in my bowl and bring it to my mouth. I lightly slide my lips over the spoonful and pull...

Protection: A Natural Protocol for COVID 19
(no audio version, resting my voice) I got COVID this week. When my daughter came to lie on my lap with a fever and aches, I knew it wouldn’t be long for me to get it. (We're both doing fine, btw. We each had one really hard day that left as quickly as it came.)...
BodyStory: Hunger Ayurvedic (Un)Recipe: Brown Rice Risotto
I have a strong desire that anyone who is in my home leaves well fed. We haven't been together in person for BodyStory: Hunger, but I still want you to eat well. I’ll do the next best thing: share my (un)recipe for Brown Rice Risotto. The Italian grandmother in me...
BodyStory: Hunger Ayurvedic (Un)Recipe: Masala Francais
This masala has been around the world. I first tried herbs de Provence, the inspiration for this combination, from a spice blend sold at Whole Foods in Colorado. Many years later, I created this French-inspired masala while I was living in Mexico. Oregano, rosemary,...
BodyStory: Hunger Ayurvedic (Un)Recipe: Rose Tahini Cookies
Devotion is an attitude that can be applied to just about anything. Including preparing food. Given how many people simultaneously are stretched for time and lack a foundational understanding of what daily nourishment should look like (simple, whole foods-based,...
BodyStory: Hunger Ayurvedic (Un)Recipe: Sweeten Up Masala
I’m so in love with this masala that a base desire in me says I shouldn’t share it. But before labeling myself greedy and selfish, I remember to peel back that desire to see what it’s saying about me. I see that it tells me how much I value the creations I make in my...
BodyStory: Hunger Ayurvedic (Un)Recipe: Just Right Soup
I don’t know where I would be without soup. No, I do. I’d be ordering a lot more take-out. And feeling quite imbalanced as a result. Soup welcomes that shifting understanding of balance we talked about in week 2 of BodyStory: Hunger. We can make it light or hearty....
Ayurvedic (Un)Recipe: Whole Wheat Ghee Pie Crust
My grandmother instilled in me a love of homemade pie crust. I remember her apron -- blue and white checked like Dorothy’s dress in The Wizard of Oz -- swinging to the rhythm of her rolling pin as she pressed out the crusts that she would fill with her rich, creamy...
Ghee: Better Butter
It had been years since I’d eaten butter, but there I was with two pounds of it. These were my early days of studying Ayurveda. Suspicious as I was about butter, I dropped it into a big pot on my stove and watched it bubble away into something I was told was medicine....
Ayurvedic (Un)Recipe: Mylk and Cookies
There was once a time when I slung sugar for a living. As a professional baker, it was my job to bake 10 pies, three dozen muffins, and a couple of cheesecakes before most people had eaten breakfast. I sweated in tiny kitchens, hauled 50 pound bags of flour up rickety...
