The lunar cycles have a powerful and essential effect on the waters of the earth, creating low and high tides that correspond to how nourished and energized our planet is. We are also mere bodies of water, and connecting with the moon can be a meaningful way to maintain a steady relationship with the creative and fertile potential of your body and mind, no matter what your gender or phase of life.

During and post-menopause, when a woman’s menstrual cycle begins to shift, turning to the moon for support during the chaos of feelings and sensations is a traditional practice revered by peoples all over the world. In this four-week series, we’ll explore different yoga-inspired movement, pranayama, meditation, journaling, and dietary principles that can help you structure a routine around the phases of the moon, and honor your feminine creative potential long into your wisdom years.

Ayurveda & Menopause: Embracing the Wisdom Years
2022-06-11 10:00 - 12:00 | YogaSole, 254 Windsor Place, Brooklyn, NY, 11215, United States
While Western culture approaches menopause like a disease, stifiling “symptoms” with drugs and shaming them with cultural taboos, Ayurveda sees is as a normal stage of life that doesn’t have to overwhelm you with discomfort, and even be a source of joy and reflection. In this workshop, we’ll discuss the physical, mental, and emotional changes that take place as a woman moves into her vata stage of life (aka “wisdom years”), and explore different practices, foods and recipes, herbs and teas, and other rituals that can support this significant time of life. Whether you’re years away from menopause, in the middle of it, or have it in your rear view mirror, this workshop will give you valuable tools that will help you make mindful choices for your long-term health that prevent and work with any imbalances you experience, regarding your hormonal health and beyond.

Eternal Beauty: Ayurvedic Skin Care for Every Season of Life
2022-06-02 18:30 - 19:30 | NY
In Western culture, healthy skin is something we approach from the outside-in, with makeup and products and procedures that seek to destroy imperfections and conform to an arbitrary standard of beauty. Ayurveda takes a different route: Beginning from the inside—with digestion, stress, sleep, and more—we see the skin as a reflection of how all the systems of the body are functioning and communicating.
This workshop will introduce you to the fundamentals of Ayurvedic skin care, just in time for the season when most of us are interested in baring more skin: summer. Preparing ourselves to handle increased exposure to heat during the pitta time of year, we can help our skin function as an organ of digestion and elimination while increasing its potential to glow from within. At the same time, these daily rituals for self-reflection and mindfulness will allow you to maintain a healthy radiance all year long, and in every season of life.
You’ll come away with:

An understanding of how skin relates to the rest of the body per Ayurveda
How to uncover the “root cause” of common skin care issues during the summer season
How to adjust your skin care rituals to suit different phases of life, including hormonal shifts (puberty, pregnancy), stress, and aging
Common cooking and medicinal herbs to feed your skin a balanced diet
Sense-care rituals that allow you to connect with and befriend your skin
