(audio version below) The first time you scoop a date out of a jar of ghee in which it has been resting, you will feel like a sinner. But go ahead -- pop it into your mouth. Enjoy it with all the bliss that is rightfully yours and claim your place at the table of...
I practiced as an intuitive healer for 13 years before I began studying Ayurveda. This means I apply Ayurveda to my client work quite differently from other practitioners. My experience diving into the energy of people -- seeing the ways that their bodies carry the...
