Returning home tomorrow; it’s impossible to summarize how fruitful this trip has been. Everything has fallen into place, including a little (huge) nudge from the north.

About to prepare this massive Ricinus communis (Castor Bean) leaf for my next client…combining its anti inflammatory qualities with Janu Basti for sublime knee pain relief.

"The less congestion you have in your body, the less you will have. The more that gathers, the more you will have. Congestion is simply a great terrain for creating more congestion and therefore low quality tissue. A terrain free from congestion lends to being free from congestion and having high quality tissue. Low quality, congested tissue tends to take over; it develops a life of its own..."feed me, feed me". Prashanti DeJager

Something wonderful happened to my practice during Lockdown. It started twelve years ago when my teachers, from UK and France, taught us to send Distance Marma treatments to their families. What a gift to have in my back pocket for the time of Covid! It enables me to keep "seeing" clients, and because I want them to have something tangible they can do for themselves between sessions, a beautiful and oh-so powerful experience of Mudra Therapy evolved...and is still evolving. More on that at another time, perhaps.

Since I still haven't quite figured out how to start seeing clients in person, I've become a collector of physical and energetic "medicine" they can self-administer, and I thought I'd share a really good one with you. Check out the short video in the link below. This 30 second self-treatment, done daily while watching tv or whatever, increases stamina and well-being more than you can imagine. You can find other helpful remedies on this site, as well:

Sautéed Asparagus on a bed of Polenta, garnished with a healthy handful of Full Spectrum MicroGreens.

From the Ayurvedic perspective, MicroGreens are far less Vata provoking than most raw choices for a number of reasons. They are low to the ground and early in the life cycle…still in the Kapha stage of plant life…far more supple, tender and juicy than crispy; not up in the air, flowing in the breeze, but still earthy and grounded, their nutrient content intensely compact, with 4-6 times the vitamins and nutrients of the mature plant. And! Their high chlorophyl content is exactly what we need this time of year to cleanse the gut and replenish the microbiome.
