This 💯

Have you ever felt this way. These days, who hasn’t?

First of all, cut yourself some slack - this is called being human.

Next, cut some extra obligations OUT of your life. Things you think you “should” be doing.’

No more “shoulding” on yourself. It’s time to curate both your time and your energy.

No more abandoning your own needs so that you can look after everyone else’s.

No more agreeing to a request just because it’s easier than saying no.

Here are some easy ways to say no and set your boundaries.

When things get to be too much, think of it as an invitation to course-correct. Your body is sending you a signal. Pay attention.

Drop a 🤎 if this is a good reminder.

• Flexible pace and focus — work on balance, strength, breathwork, meditation, or rehab-driven mobility.

As the wind picks up and the days grow shorter, Vata energy rises—bringing movement, dryness, and a touch of restlessness. Ayurveda teaches us to balance this with warmth, rhythm, and nourishment.

🎃 Post 3: Fall Foods for Dosha Harmony
Autumn is the season of soups, squashes, and slow cooking. According to Ayurveda, these foods help pacify Vata and nourish your whole being.
🥣 Cooked apples with cinnamon = digestive gold
🥕 Roasted carrots and sweet potatoes = grounding and sweet
🌾 Oats, rice, and mung dal = gentle on the gut and deeply satisfying
