Intermittent Fasting After 40: The Metabolic Reset to Unlock your Vitality

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]When we reach midlife, our bodies begin whispering (or sometimes shouting) that the rules are changing. The metabolism that once forgave late-night snacks and irregular meals begins to slow down, energy fluctuates in unfamiliar patterns, and weight accumulates more easily. This natural transition, while challenging, also presents an extraordinary opportunity to recalibrate our relationship with nourishment, and intermittent fasting offers a powerful framework for doing exactly that. Understanding the Midlife Metabolic Shift The metabolic slowdown typically experienced in our 40s and 50s isn't simply about requiring fewer calories. Rather, it represents a complex hormonal and cellular transition that affects how our bodies process energy, store fat, manage inflammation, and maintain cellular health. Studies suggest that our basal metabolic rate decreases by approximately 1-2% per decade after age 20, often...

Quench your thirst for life

Quench Your Thirst For Life

The truth is we are here in this life to thrive and when we do not get to live our life fully, vibrantly and passionately we become thirsty. This is our desire for life not being met. How many times have I made this mistake of choosing, staring at something when I was out of balance and desperate to feel good- till I learned to stay still? Of course for this to happen, for knowing when to stand still.. you need to realise first that you are out of balance and this requires that while you live your life you also can take a little distance from it so you can witness yourself. How often do we simply settle for whatever is readily available when we are thirsty,...

Is your passion beating darling?

Is your passion beating darling?

How long has it been since you felt your heart beating so strongly for a desire, that it looked like it would jump out of your chest? Not only for a person but for a project or a purpose? This is your passion for living vibrantly, beating. This is our inner Self telling us, ‘GO THIS WAY” and it is soooo clear, But still, we question it, we find excuses to stay in our comfort, in the security of our couch. But this heart beating so strongly is telling you, telling me, GET UP!  You can do it whether you think you can, Whether you have the resources or not. Whenever this happens to me, I know there is no way I will not do it. Even if I do not know...

Reset Your Life Beyond Perimenopause

Most women feel like their lives and well-being slip out of their hands during the natural phase called perimenopause, which marks the transition to menopause starting in your mid-thirties and well into your fifties. During this stage of life, hormonal fluctuations can lead to a variety of symptoms ranging from hot flashes and irregular periods to sleep disturbances and changes in libido. The gradual and sometimes more sudden emotional and physical changes accompanying perimenopause can feel destabilizing. Leaving you thrown out of balance. However, if you're someone who is passionate about life and has a strong desire to live it to the fullest, you understand that there is more to experience than just being a victim of perimenopause or menopause. You know, deep down, that you can discover...

Rise & Shine: Discover the Magic of Early Mornings!

Why Wake Up Before Sunrise? When you wake up even 30 minutes before sunrise, it's like going to the movies before the film starts. You get ready to receive the energy of the sun and begin your day with Clarity and Vibrant Energy.   Picture your day as a movie. When you wake up after sunrise, it's like going to a movie too late, after it has already started. You can still watch the movie, but since you missed the intro, your day is far less likely to start out with vigour and a strong sense of clarity.  Since I started rising before sunrise 20+ years ago, I hardly ever get colds or sick and would never want to sleep late anymore. I rush out of bed in the...

Transform your Life, One Breath at a Time

Transform your Life, One Breath at a Time

I strongly believe that to practice real yoga you do not need to be flexible, you need to be willing to transcend your own limitations, to evolve. (If you are here I believe you might not see yoga as a workout!) The Power of Yoga: A Journey of Self-Transformation Talking about yoga, for me, always is parallel to talking about life, and this is the reason yoga is so powerful when it comes to self-transformation. The way we behave in this small space that is our yoga mat is exactly the way we behave in our life; when we are restless, tense, pushy, lazy, cheating, distracted, or grumpy, our practice is mirroring upon us how our life is unfolding. In my 20+ years of teaching people of all...

How to Naturally Balance Your Hormons During Perimenopause

Have you ever wondered how to balance your hormones naturally? Are you constantly experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions and energy levels?  If so, keep reading to learn how to naturally restore your hormonal balance.   Perimenopause means "around menopause" and refers to the time during which your body makes the natural transition to menopause, beginning several years before menopause. During this time, the ovaries gradually begin to produce less estrogen, marking the end of the reproductive years.   For some women, Early Stage Perimenopause can begin as early as in their 30s but most often it starts between the ages 40 to 44 with a noticeable change in menstrual flow and the length of the cycle.   Interfering with your hormones is dangerous ground and is often very unpredictable.   Instead, have you ever thought...

Energetic Alignment

What is Energetic Alignment

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] What is Energetic Alignment? Let us begin this class rooting ourselves in the understanding that yoga is not about bending, twisting, and balancing but about transformation, about revealing our essential nature and freeing ourselves (liberation) from suffering: realisation= MUKTI= Union=YOGA. Sadhana is a device to create transformation, to achieve the state of Yoga or Integration. So is the practice on and off the mat. Have you ever asked yourself why none of the ancient scriptures on Yoga talks about anatomy? Or anatomical Alignment? Why Patanjali does not even mention physical alignment in the Yoga Sutras? While in the west, at the moment, what we call yoga is a physical exercise derived from yoga which is completely physically oriented and anatomy based. We focus completely on the physical, and in the name...

overthinking mind

Calm your overthinking mind

Here is the best strategy to stop overthinking & calm your mind. I woke up blissed inside out on that full moon day! The dark cloud I had all around and inside me and all that Kapha energy had dissipated. Did you know that on a full moon day, whatever state you are in, it gets enhanced? The full moon holds a mirror to us so we can see and feel where we really are emotional! I had been feeling heavy and lethargic, and my mind was scattered and super active; I could not focus, and creativity was just not flowing through! I knew, because I do cleanse my body and mind regularly, that it was time to get out of the winter comfort zone! I finished my...

Breath Awareness

Essentials: Breath Awareness as a Healing Tool

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Breathing is, unfortunately, an ongoing unconscious process for most human beings, by which we take oxygen and vital energy into our body, yet the most important process in our existence: Life starts with an inhale and ends with an exhale. Without breath, there is no life, and still, we take it for granted. Are you aware of this process fully? Do you know the importance of proper breathing? Try to concentrate on this action only – taking a deep breath in and letting it out while solely observing the inflow and outflow of your breath. You will feel much more than just breathing. You will feel your body and everything that is in contact with it. That is how you come to the phase of...
