Send us a textI Am Shakti occupies a vital space at the intersection of women's spirituality, Ayurveda, social healing, and conscious leadership. women and communities as a whole are seeking guidance that honors ancient wisdom while speaking directly to modern realities of trauma, injustice, and renewal. I Am Shakti naturally speak to readers who yearn for ancient wisdom, and Ayurveda's natural healing life way.It vast context can used be to up-level spiritual practices and feminist movements, to reclaim feminine power, heal, and promote equality -  to be awakened and acknowledge the divine feminine energy in oneself, which is seen as the source of life and creation.  this work is tailor made forWomen exploring spiritual healing and remembered embodimentFeminine leadership and empowerment communitiesFostering balance of both masculine and feminine primordial energies. And together Building small interdependent, self-sustainable communities to support snd share a Shaktified way of living, the necessary way to reclaim the power that has been stolen from us. The Shakti impetus to honor and protect Mother Earth, to treat our young with tenderness, the aged with compassion, the weak with forbearance  and the unknown with courage - that invisibly guide us even through crushed dreams and unspeakable acts of horror. Courage that is the staff bearer the Shakti force within you. I Am Shakti feeds a deep and sustained appetite for guidance that move beyond self-help and more toward collective healing and ethical responsibility. This universal principle  connects individual power to a broader movement for social change, to advocate for gender equality, safety, and independence for women, and to build a more just society I stand as a breathing example of the harmonious reality  I facilitate in I Am Shakti. Through my life's intense  experience of continually reeving sanity through reality I have learnt that when women reclaim their power, they  work towards creating a world with greater justice, cooperation, and nourishment for all.I have been tested, forged and crafted by the most high through intensive fires of living. I have earned the scars that  transmuted into medals not only for surviving the impossible, but for going beyond to fuel my Shakti force from the broken shards of my life. I stand today with the power that create inner balance of my feminine and masculine force, making completion within myself, whole, and sacred on hallowed ground. There is no need to interview for roles that are not relevant to purpose and path.I wish the same growth for every woman and man- growth of awareness that fosters  courage -courage stoked from the immutable flames of faith that is forever guided by divine purpose.Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com Get Maya's New Book: I Am Shakti: https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/o-books/our-books/I-am-shakti Amazon.com Bookshop.org

About this episode: In this timely episode of The Wellness Pro Show, Cate Stillman sits down with leaders from the California College of Ayurveda (CCA) to explore what it really takes to build a successful, sustainable Ayurveda business in today's wellness economy. Together, they unpack the gap between clinical training and real-world practice, why so many skilled practitioners struggle financially, and how Ayurvedic professionals can shift from one-on-one consults into scalable, ethical business models—without compromising the depth or integrity of the tradition. This conversation is essential listening for Ayurveda students, graduates, and wellness professionals who want to serve more people, earn consistently, and build careers that last. Key Takeaways:

One of the aspects of food recovery I wished that I had greater guidance around (and had to learn for myself) was discovering how to listen to my body.  Even within different food recovery approaches, there are still all of these rules about what to eat to "prove" recovery or what to do to ensure recovery. I've seen more confusion over the years about what will or will not lead toward a decrease in food coping mechanisms because there is still this idea that there is a right way and a wrong way to recover. When embodiment increases, food behaviors can decrease. When you can hear, understand, and interpret your body's feedback, food impulses don't have to feel so scary to experience anymore because you get what your body is trying to relay. It was the practice of yoga that taught me how to get into my body. In this week's episode, I chat with Jeanie Manchester, founder of Anjaneya Yoga Shala, Master Yoga and Meditation Instructor, about: The impact of doubt on self perceptionBeing guided by your inner voiceHow we are shaped by our life experiencesListening to body wisdomThe connection between lineage and personal identityEmbracing ourselvesAnd so much more! You can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/the-power-of-finding-and-trusting-your-inner-voiceWishing you a restful, easy holiday week and see you all next week! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Jeanie: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jeanie.manchester/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yoginijeanie/Website: https://www.jeaniemanchester.com/Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.benso...

As we move fully into early winter, many of us begin to notice changes in our skin, tightness, dryness, rough patches, or increased sensitivity. In Ayurveda, these seasonal shifts are meaningful clues about what's happening internally. Winter, especially early winter, increases Vata dosha with its cold, dry, and mobile qualities, which can intensify skin imbalance if we don't adjust our routines and nourishment. In this episode, we dive into Ayurveda's full guide to winter skin care. You'll learn what happens to the skin during early winter, how to identify signs of imbalance for your dosha type (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), and the internal and external practices that keep your skin hydrated, radiant, and resilient all season long. This episode includes: Seasonal skin insights: How early winter's Vata qualities affect moisture, circulation, and sensitivity Signs of winter imbalance for each dosha Why rasa dhatu matters for skin health Internal and external rituals to support dryness, irritation, or congestion The emotional connection: How mood imbalances show up on the skin Holistic winter self-care that brings radiance from within Whether your skin becomes dry and flaky, red and irritated, or dull and congested during the colder months, this episode offers practical, grounding tools to support your unique doshic needs.

Send us a textIn today's episode of The Nourished Nervous System, I'm joined by Alyx Coble-Frakes, founder of The Agenda, for a powerful and wide-ranging conversation about menstrual cycles, perimenopause, and what happens when women stop overriding their bodies.This episode lands perfectly in the middle of my three-part series on Ayurveda and perimenopause, expanding the conversation beyond hormones as something to “fix” and into hormones as sources of insight, rhythm, and power.Together, we explore how understanding the menstrual cycle can radically change how we work, relate, parent, create, and lead — and why ignoring cyclical biology has contributed to burnout, relationship strain, and increasingly difficult perimenopause experiences in modern culture.One of the central themes we explore is the concept of “meno divorce” — a term used to describe the increased likelihood of separation or divorce during perimenopause and menopause, often initiated by women. Rather than framing this as hormones “ruining relationships,” we talk about perimenopause as a truth-revealing portal, where long-standing imbalances, unmet needs, and emotional inequities become impossible to ignore.This conversation is honest, validating, fiery, and deeply compassionate — touching on patriarchy, unpaid labor, nervous system overload, erotic aliveness, and the reclamation of feminine wisdom.In This Episode, We Discuss:• The menstrual cycle as an internal seasonal rhythm • The four phases of the cycle and how they affect energy, mood, libido, and cognition • Why women aren't meant to function on linear, masculine productivity models • Perimenopause as a portal into clarity, sovereignty, and self-truth • What “meno divorce” really reflects — and why it's not about women being “crazy” • Hormonal shifts and reduced tolerance for emotional and relational inequity • The mental load, unpaid labor, and libido loss many women carry in midlife • How understanding cycles can transform partnerships and communication • Why tracking your cycle is a foundational self-care and self-advocacy tool • The overlap between Ayurvedic wisdom and cycle awareness • Reclaiming erotic aliveness, intuition, and feminine leadership in midlifeAbout Today's Guest:Alex Kabul Franks is the founder of The Agenda, a platform dedicated to helping menstruating people sync their lives with their hormonal rhythms so they can feel more in flow physically, emotionally, and mentally.Through cycle-syncing tools, education, and advocacy, Alex's work helps women shift from battling their hormones to recognizing them as a powerful internal guidance system.You can learn more about Alex and her work through The Agenda app and planner (links below).InstagramCheck out The Agenda App:App StoreResources:Ayurvedic Dosha Quick Reference Guide Abhyanga Self Massage Guide Weekend Nervous System Reset Nourished For Resilience Workbook Find me at www.nourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

While we cannot diagnose anxiety or depression with a single blood test, modern biomarkers can reveal the physical disruptions that influence how we think, feel, and respond to stress. From micronutrient deficiencies to inflammation, your physiology silently shapes your emotional world.Through the Ayurvedic lens of Vata imbalance and the foundational 3R Protocol, this episode shows how understanding your biomarkers can transform healing, resilience, and emotional clarity.Episode Highlights: • Why emotions have a physical foundation • The key biomarkers linked to anxiety, low mood, burnout, and fatigue • How sleep, HRV, inflammation, and nutrient reserves shape mental stability • Why replenishing deficiencies often leads to emotional breakthroughs • How to work with the body before diving into therapy or inner workIf you'd like the free checklist of mental-health biomarkers mentioned in this episode, subscribe to the newsletter at Link - https://vigneshdevraj.com/subscribe-to-newsletter/Timestamps:00:00 - 01:00: Why There Is No Single Blood Test for Emotions01:00 - 03:00: The Hidden Physical Patterns Behind Emotional Distress03:00 - 05:00: R1: Relax – Regulate the Nervous System05:00 - 06:30: R2: Reduce – Clearing Physical Overload06:30 - 08:00 R3: Replenish – Correcting Deficiencies08:00 - 09:20: Integrating BiomarkersDr Vignesh Devraj If you are interested in doing one on one Ayurvedic consultation with Dr Vignesh Devraj please find the details in this link: https://calendly.com/drvignesh/30-minute-session-with-dr-vignesh-devraj-md-ay-istIf you are economically challenged, please use the form provided to request a free Ayurvedic consultation here.

Vata is responsible for Prana - the life energy, the nervous system - the master panel of our body, and our emotions. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that controlling Vata is the most difficult part of healing and recovery. Recently, I have recorded a workshop on - Balancing The Mighty Vata, which has over 6 hrs of content, with notes filled with practical inputs that can be integrated into our life.

Some callings arrive quietly, long before we have language for them.In this episode of the Sacred Window Podcast, Christine Eck sits in conversation with Nicole Stratis, whose path into postpartum and nervous system care began not in a classroom, but in the soil—working organic farms, listening to plants, and learning through the intelligence of the hands.Nicole shares how farming and herbalism became early initiations into embodiment, presence, and slowness, and how these earth-based teachings now live at the heart of her work offering sacred touch and conscious care to women—especially during the sacred window after birth.Together, we reflect on the way plants, land, and the natural world invite us back into our own humanness. We explore touch as relationship rather than technique, postpartum care as a continuation of ancient remembering, and the truth that the body already knows how to heal when it is met with reverence and trust.This conversation is for anyone who feels called to caregiving work but senses their path has been non-linear, intuitive, or difficult to explain. It is a reminder that your story—however winding—is already preparing you.In This Episode, We Explore• Embodied beginnings and unexpected paths into caregiving• Farming and herbalism as spiritual and somatic teachers• Sacred touch as a language of presence• Nervous system healing in postpartum care• Trusting the body's innate intelligence• Listening for the call that has been guiding you all alongIf this conversation speaks to something stirring in you, we invite you to stay connected with us and explore conscious postpartum caregiving through the lens of Ayurveda and the Universal Mother Principles.Learn more at www.sacredwindowstudies.comAbout Nicole:Nicole Shea Stratis guides women home into their bodies through the art of sacred touch and embodied presence. Her path to becoming a licensed massage therapist, yoga teacher, and biodynamic craniosacral therapist began in the soil—working organic farms and apprenticing with herbalists across the country—where she awakened to the profound connection between the earth's health and our own. Through modalities including Lomi Lomi Hawaiian Massage, the Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage, and Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, she honors the body's innate intelligence as the true healer. Nicole holds space for women to reclaim trust with their bodies, supporting nervous system healing and postpartum care with the deep reverence and presence they deserve.Nicole's Link:About | Nicole Stratis, LMTAre you feeling the call to know more about Conscious Postpartum Care?Reach out! ⁠Schedule a time with Christine⁠ to find out how this work can transform your care business or provide a meaningful career path.Here is the ⁠link⁠ to our free class@‌sacredwindowstudiesJoin our ⁠Facebook Group⁠Podcast Music is Composed by Sara Emmitt, graduate of the Center for Sacred Window Studies.

Postpartum is not just a recovery phase, it is one of the biggest full body transitions a woman will ever go through. In this episode, Dr. Taz breaks down what actually happens in the fourth trimester, from the steep drop in estrogen and progesterone to fluid shifts, tissue dryness, gut slowdown, metabolic changes, and the mental and emotional load that can follow. You will learn why so many women feel unprepared after birth, why the six week bounce back expectation is unrealistic, and how older systems like Chinese medicine and Ayurveda approached postpartum as a sacred 40 to 100 day window of restoration.Dr. Taz shares: • Why postpartum can feel so destabilizing: the hormone crash, nervous system strain, and energy depletion most women are never taught about • The hidden physical shifts after delivery, including swelling and fluid volume changes that can take months to fully regulate • Why skin, hair, and vaginal dryness are common postpartum, and how this can affect libido, confidence, and self perception • How breastfeeding changes hormones, including oxytocin's calming effect and its relationship with cortisol and mood • Why weight loss varies dramatically postpartum, and how insulin sensitivity, blood sugar history, PCOS, and metabolic factors change the timeline • The gut changes no one talks about: slower motility, constipation, reflux, and why progesterone shifts play a role • The fourth trimester frameworks from Chinese medicine and Ayurveda: rest, warming foods, nourishment, massage, acupuncture, herbs, and community care • A modern 100 day postpartum plan that starts in the third trimester with nutrient optimization, thyroid and blood sugar support, gut health, and a real support circleWhether you are newly postpartum, preparing for birth, or supporting someone in those early months, this episode gives you a clear, practical roadmap to protect energy, reduce depletion, and recover in a way that helps you feel like yourself again.Stay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Follow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsGet your copy of The Hormone Shift: Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and MenopauseHost & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek)

What Your Blood Really Says: Using Blood Tests for Preventive Health. Blood tests can reveal far more about your health than most people realize, often long before symptoms appear. In this episode, I explain how blood work can be used as a powerful preventive tool, not just to diagnose disease. We talk about what common blood tests can tell you about your metabolism, thyroid, hormones, nutrient status, and cardiovascular risk, and why “normal” lab ranges don't always mean optimal health. You'll learn why some nutrients need to be tested in whole blood or red blood cells rather than serum, which markers are often overlooked, and how to choose the right tests without overtesting. This episode is for anyone who wants to move beyond guesswork and use blood tests to gain clarity, track progress, and make more informed health decisions.Takeaways:Blood tests can reveal new health information.Early detection through blood tests aids in prevention.Doctors often check for severe health issues, not optimal health.Optimal ranges in blood tests are crucial for overall health.TSH is just one parameter for assessing thyroid health.Vitamin D levels should ideally be between 60 and 80.Magnesium should be tested in red blood cells for accuracy.Cortisol levels significantly affect energy levels throughout the day.Supplement dosages vary from person to person.Retesting is essential to confirm the effectiveness of health protocols.(blood tests, health insights, optimal ranges, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal health, cortisol, supplements, retesting)Would you like to book a health consultation for yourself or a loved one?

In this episode, we explore how to support steady blood sugar during the holiday season using Ayurvedic wisdom. With more sugar, irregular meals, travel, and stress during the holidays, it's easy for the body's metabolic fire (agni) to become overwhelmed. Ayurveda offers practical, gentle tools to keep digestion strong, cravings balanced, and energy steady. We take a deeper look at the pancreas as a home of agni and how its function relates to three key subdoshas: Pachaka Pitta, Kledaka Kapha, and Samana Vayu. You'll learn how these forces work together to regulate metabolism, mood, and digestive rhythm and why sugar crashes are both a physical and emotional imbalance. You'll also discover: Why holiday habits disrupt blood sugar How sugar cravings form from an Ayurvedic standpoint Simple remedies for sugar crashes Spices that naturally support metabolic balance Eating rhythms and lifestyle tools that strengthen agni Practices to prevent toxins (ama) and emotional overload during the festive season Whether you struggle with cravings, energy dips, or digestive heaviness this time of year, this episode offers grounded, practical support to help you stay balanced through the holidays.

Send us a textIn this second episode of my perimenopause series, we explore Agni — your digestive and metabolic fire — and why it plays such a central role in the perimenopause transition. Ayurveda teaches that perimenopause isn't just a hormonal shift. It's a metabolic one. A deep recalibration in how the body digests food, processes experience, regulates energy, and maintains balance.Today, I walk through how Agni changes during this time, the three ways Agni can become imbalanced (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha styles), and how these patterns show up physically, mentally, and emotionally. We talk about the connection between digestion, estrogen metabolism, the nervous system, and why supporting your inner fire can bring more steadiness and clarity into this phase of life.This episode is both validating and deeply practical — a gentle guide to understanding your body through the lens of rhythm, nourishment, and internal wisdom.In this episode, I cover: • Why Ayurveda views perimenopause as a metabolic transition • How fluctuating estrogen affects Agni, digestion, heat regulation, and mood • The three main Agni patterns that show up during perimenopause — Vata/ Vishama Agni: irregular, sensitive, unpredictable — Pitta/ Tikshna Agni: hot, sharp, overactive — Kapha/ Manda Agni: slow, heavy, dull • Physical + emotional signs for each pattern • The role of fat tissue, the adrenals, and peripheral estrogen production • How Agni influences Rasa (hydration, lubrication, nourishment) • Why this time is a sacred window for tending your nervous system • Lifestyle, food, and pacing practices to support each type of Agni • The deeper spiritual meaning of tending your “sacred fire” during this transition • How metabolic steadiness supports hormones, sleep, immunity, and overall vitality • Why this transition is refinement — not declineResources:Ayurvedic Dosha Quick Reference Guide Abhyanga Self Massage Guide Weekend Nervous System Reset Nourished For Resilience Workbook Find me at www.nourishednervoussystem.comand @nourishednervoussytem on Instagram

Vata is responsible for Prana - the life energy, the nervous system - the master panel of our body, and our emotions. In Ayurveda, it is mentioned that controlling Vata is the most difficult part of healing and recovery. Recently, I have recorded a workshop on - Balancing The Mighty Vata, which has over 6 hrs of content, with notes filled with practical inputs that can be integrated into our life.

Ever feel like your to-do list is running your life and you barely have any energy left for what matters most—like connecting with loved ones or just enjoying the moment? In our fast-paced world, we often believe productivity comes from pushing ourselves harder, burning the candle at both ends, and tackling more tasks. But what if the key to a happier, healthier life starts before you even get to your goals and conversations—right in the foundation of your daily rhythms and body awareness? In this episode, you'll discover why tuning into your body's core needs is the missing link for emotional safety, deeper relationships, and true productivity. The conversation unveils science-backed strategies and ancient wisdom to help you manage your energy, regulate your nervous system, and build habits that become second nature. You'll also explore personalized approaches to self-care—so you can stop the cycle of burnout and perfectionism, cultivate more resilience, and create space for meaningful connections every day.

Establish a simple morning routine: Create morning habits that energize you—this doesn't mean a lengthy ritual, but something that helps you feel awake and grounded. Identify your energy drains and boosters: Pay attention to which tasks or activities drain your energy and which ones replenish it, adjusting your schedule accordingly. Automate foundational habits: Focus on making your basic self-care and wellness routines so automatic that they require little mental energy to maintain. Start small with new habits: If you're building a new habit, begin with manageable baby steps to ensure consistency and avoid burnout or overwhelm. Incorporate nervous system regulation: After foundational habits are in place, introduce practices like breathwork or somatic exercises, but only as needed—not all day, every day. Ask for support from your partner: Communicate with your partner about what helps you regulate—this might be a gentle touch, a walk together, or another soothing gesture during conflict. Customize your self-care: Recognize your personal energy archetype and tailor your wellness strategies—whether you need more grounding, invigoration, or soothing—based on your unique tendencies.   Mentioned Energy Archetype Quiz (link) (quiz) 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free guide)   Connect with Hadlee Garrison Websites: happyhealthyhadlee.com YouTube: youtube.com/@happyhealthyhadlee Instagram: instagram.com/happyhealthyhadlee TikTok: tiktok.com/@happyhealthyhadlee Podcast: Spotify: https://bit.ly/4iGbHZN | Apple Podcast: https://bit.ly/4iHvBDG   

When I was approached by Brett Aldrich's team, I wasn't quite sure how the conversation would go - if it would be something you would be interested in; but maybe this convo was more for me than you? I booked a visit with her, at least! You'll hear me fumble my way around what I thought Ayurveda was (clearly I'm wrong), but Brett's practice is absolutely fascinating to me! Did you know about Ayurveda before today?Brett's practice is located in Maine, but she offers virtual visits as well, which is how my appointment will be the day before this airs! She touched on the topic of elements, which I've never heard of (not like the table of elements), and I had too many questions to let it go - so I've got an hour and 1/2 with her to get caught up. To quote Brett: "Just as the earth is made up of natural elements, so are we." She also said this: "sustainability begins within ourselves."My takeaway: what we take into our bodies matters - it either helps or hinders, and if we understand that and take notice of our body's response, we may just have an easier go of life. That's not really new info to me, but the delivery was everything to me. I'm so looking forward to some extra time with Brett and learn about my elements, and how to live better with that info! I hope you learned something new in this conversation, too!You can find all things Brett here: https://seedthespirit.com/She's on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/p/Seed-The-Spirit-LLC-61575858674934/Send me a message!Support the showPlease follow Grounded In Maine podcast on Instagram here YouTube channel link is here You can DM me there or email me at amysgardenjam@gmail.com Website for Amy's Garden Jam is https://amysgardenjam.com/ (podcast has its own tab on this site!)

Would you like to know the signs to look for when you're starting to heal with Ayurveda?Transformation and healing can be subtle, steady, and accumulative.

Millions of women in their 30s–50s are being told they're “depressed” when their brains and hormones are simply changing. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz to unpack the truth about midlife mood shifts, rage, and the hormonal fluctuations that mimic depression but aren't the same. We break down the science of perimenopause, why women are so often misdiagnosed, and how decades of excluding women from research left major gaps in understanding how estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone shape the brain. Dr. Gilberg-Lenz reveals how hormonal changes—starting up to ten years before menopause—can transform mood, cognition, and stress, and how modern science is finally catching up to just how powerfully hormones influence the mind. About the guest:Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz is a board-certified OB/GYN and integrative women's health expert who blends conventional medicine with Ayurvedic training. A USC-trained physician with a residency at Cedars-Sinai, she supports women from adolescence through menopause and is the author of Menopause Bootcamp (Harper Wave, 2022). Her work focuses on demystifying midlife, challenging ageism in healthcare, and empowering women with science-based guidance.
