As Autumn rolls swiftly towards Winter, the sun’s energy continues to drop lower in the sky. The winds chill our bones and dehydrate and chap our skin. Meanwhile, Earth beneath us goes quietly toward Her long-awaited slumber of fertile renewal, with ever expectant hope.
Earth cares for Her cycles and seasons. Earth self-replenishes.
Earth knows what to do.
Ayurveda is nothing less than the Earth’s Medicine, in its proper season, quantity, and time.
In essence however, Ayurveda lacks the bells, whistles, and bling that garners profit and validation in the market today. At the same time, people everywhere are desperate for DIY ways to improve and optimize health.
Nothing could be simpler - or more beneficial and empowering - than daily regeneration. Ayurveda offers that.
Regeneration is coded in our living DNA, right along with digestion and metabolism - but it’s been made into some elusive holy grail! It’s not!
We’ve learned to deify degeneration instead, and expect old age with each and every breath.
Break that spell here and now today. Stop expecting degenerative decay.
Nature would never go for that! She plans fully on Autumn harvest and Spring bloom, over and over, again and again…
Regeneration is the way of Life!
Precisely for these reasons, i highlight the Ayurvedic practice of Abhyanga today, reminding us to take time to restore balance, connection, and life force.
Did you know that…
*Dehydration means not only lack of water, but lack of healthy oils that feed the brain and nervous system???
or that…
*If you scratch your skin with your fingernail and leave a white line behind, your brain and nervous system are irritated and dry???
or that…
*You can directly adjust your sympathetic-parasympathetic nervous system balance through daily abhyanga, or oiling your skin every day?
Here is the article where i described the importance of self-oiling in some depth:

Remember also, skin is our largest respiratory organ, and it must be free to breathe, or transpire - just like plants do.
We absorb what we put on our skin.
Purity matters, so i make herbal oils, tinctures, and salves - and keep my home apothecary stocked with handmade medicines and bulk herbs, so that whatever the need, i just pull it off the shelf.
Not just for me. For us all.
THIS IS SELF-SUSTAINABILITY:
We are ready, and know how to take care of ourselves.
It’s not that hard. Just start where you are.
And if that means calling local herbalists or visiting the herb store yourself, that’s how it’s done - that’s how we all used to live. Let’s remember our roots.
Don’t have the confidence? Then support your local healers and stores, please…
We are holding the line.
We always have, and we always will.
Earth’s great library of wholeness lives within us, as the changing seasons, the whispering winds, and the turning tides; as the suns and moons of the eons; as the wonder in a child’s eyes.
Earth’s ways are endless, as are Her gifts.
Turn off and close your screens. Leave your devices home. Find a tree, a flower, a single blade of grass; and offer your heart to the breath of Life.
And for goddess’s sake, please start up a practice of abhyanga (daily oiling) today. Your brain will thank you by blossoming into neurogenesis - new cells and circuits for higher functions like creating, healing, and evolving to full potential.
Lo and behold, who knew that pure olive oil could neutralize radiation and the force of 5G…? Nature thought of everything, long before we ever came along…
Happy OILING!
