The Ultimate Guide to Heart Chakra Healing For Complete Beginners 💗

  The  heart chakra  for thousands of years has been known as the center of love, unity, and balance. When was the last time you felt open, receptive, forgiving, accepting, generous, and connected to both yourself and other people? This was most likely when your heart chakra was healthy and balanced. However,  if you chronically experience a sense of social isolation, loneliness, resentment, bitterness or fear, you likely have a blocked heart chakra. There are many causes of a blocked, suppressed or stagnant heart chakra. Some of the most common life experiences that impair the heart chakra include experiencing physical or emotional abuse as a child, being raised by an emotionally cold or narcissistic parent, being denied affection and love growing up, adopting unhealthy societal beliefs surrounding love, and developing self-destructive habits that block the giving and receiving of love. This guide will help you initiate your own unique process of heart chakra healin...

Loving Ourselves; Opening up our Hearts ❤

Happy  February  to all of our dear friends and family from around the world! This week, we’d like to speak about the  Heart  and the beauty it represents not only physically, but emotionally and mentally as well.  In  Ayurveda , the heart is the seat of the 10 great vessels, supporting healthy circulation and a major aspect of both the lymph  rasa  channel as well as the blood  rakta  channel. These two in combination, make up an entire pathway in our body that supports our health and overall well-being. We consider the heart to be the center of everything. In addition to the physical channels of the body, the heart is also the seat of  ojas –the 8 drops that are created from the entire nutrition cycle–giving us vitality, immunity, enthusiasm, and truly the essence of who we are. In this way, the health of this organ plays an integral role in the health of our overall being.  On a subtler level, our heart is also the emotional...

Healthy Romantic Relationship : Signs , Red Flags ,Tips & more 💕

               Open communication, curiosity, individual interests, and teamwork are just a few ways to develop a healthy relationship. But it may also depend on your needs and those of your partner. If you have or want a romantic relationship, you probably want a healthy one, right? But what’s a healthy relationship, exactly? Well, it depends. Healthy relationships don’t look the same for everyone since people have different needs. Your specific needs around communication, sex, affection, space, shared hobbies or values, and so on may change throughout life. So, a relationship that works in your 20s may be nothing like the relationship you want in your 30s. Relationships that don’t align with more traditional definitions of a relationship can still be healthy. For example, people who practice polyamory or ethical non-monogamy might define a healthy relationship somewhat differently than people who practice monogamy. In short, “healthy r...

Why We Love Beets ? Heart Health Benefits 💟

  Beets  Are Nutritionally Rich Beets , also known scientifically as Beta vulgaris, are edible taproots thought to have originated in Middle Eastern or Mediterranean regions. Beets have been traditionally used as food and medicine for thousands of years. Historically, cultures in the Middle East used beets for everything from constipation to gut and joint pain. Some cultures even used beets to get rid of dandruff. Using beets as a traditional medicinal may come as no surprise because beets have many different nutritional properties. Studies suggest that beets are nutritional powerhouses filled with many of the nutrients one might find in a  multivitamin supplement  like iron, magnesium, thiamin, and folate. In modern times, beets have been studied for their potential benefit to the heart. More recently, beet supplementation, rather than the use of the vegetable itself, has been the focus of this study. Beet supplements are nutritional products made entirely or mostly...

Ayurveda for Moving into Spring 🌺

     According to Ayurveda, one of the keys to maintaining health is to practice ritucharya—seasonal routines. Adjusting our daily self-care rituals to seasonal changes helps us maintain balance and reminds us that we are a part of the natural world. Spring is ruled by the kapha dosha , whose qualities are heavy, cool, soft, dense, stable, solid, and cloudy. To adjust for the season , consider the following practices: Wake with the sunrise . One of the best practices to minimize the heavy quality of kapha in the mind and body is to wake with the sun (around 5:30 am this time of year). Dawn is ruled by vata and is light, clear, and subtle. Get moving. When kapha is dominant in the day, the muscles are strongest between 6:00 and 10:00 am. Get outside for a brisk walk or do some vigorous yoga to melt away excess kapha. Kapalabhati pranayama is a great way to stoke the fires of digestion. Eat lighter foods. In the winter months, we naturally gravitate to...
