Life often becomes a rush of tasks, leading to a disconnect from ourselves, our breath, our inner rhythm and the rhythm of nature. Ritual helps us return to ourselves within our existing routines. It transforms mundane actions like showering or having tea into moments of presence and appreciation. Approaching self-care practices as rituals, rather than tasks that need to be checked off daily, fosters a sense of being rooted, nourished, and present, bringing us closer to our true selves. In this episode Colette wants to encourage you to transform your Dinacharya, the Ayurvedic daily self-care practices, from mere routines into deeply nourishing rituals that foster a stronger connection with your inner self. This involves moving beyond simply completing tasks and instead taking the time to listen to your inner guidance, allowing you to make more intentional and meaningful choices for your well-being. She covers the following: Daily self-care practices (dinacharya) as a blueprint for alignment. Why routine can feel empty. Turning routine into ritual. Mindset shifts: from doing to being. The psychological, spiritual and energetic benefits of sacred ritual. Personalizing and flowing with your daily ritual. * Visit Colette's website www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com Online consultations & Gift Vouchers Next discounted Group Cleanse starts October 3rd, 2025 Private at-home Digestive Reset Cleanse tailored to you Educational programs - Daily Habits for Holistic Health Have questions before you book?

What began as "Russian Mountains" evolved across Europe, and eventually, found their way to the good ol' U.S. of A... In 1884, one man wanted to use his vast fortune--NO!

Spring, often referred to as kapha season in Ayurveda, shares similar qualities with the kapha dosha: cold, moist, heavy, static, soft, and liquid. We observe these characteristics in the environment through cooler temperatures and the earth saturated by melting snow or rain. This external environment significantly influences our bodies. As a result, you might experience clogged pores, increased oiliness, puffiness, skin breakouts, and a lack of vibrancy in your skin during this time. Colette delves into holistic skincare practices specifically tailored for the spring season. She'll be covering: The development and nourishment of our skin. How the heightened kapha elements of spring impact the skin. A comprehensive Ayurvedic approach to skincare, including: Diet Digestive function (agni) Lifestyle adjustments Self-care rituals Sleep hygiene Mindfulness techniques Hydration strategies Beneficial skin treatments The use of Ayurvedic herbs Stay tuned for valuable insights to keep your skin healthy and radiant this Spring! * Visit Colette's website www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com Online consultations & Gift Vouchers Next discounted Group Cleanse starts October 3rd, 2025 Private at-home Digestive Reset Cleanse tailored to you Educational programs - Daily Habits for Holistic Health Have questions before you book?
