Sustainability, like health & wellness, isn’t a trend — it’s a lifestyle. Inspired by the endless ways the earth provides for us, I find small ways each day to recommit to my goal of reducing my footprint. Join me for the Plastic-Free July challenge!

Abhyanga is an Ayurvedic self oil massage of your muscles, joints, bones and organs. A daily Abhyanga practice restores the balance of the doshas and enhances well-being. I have been practicing Abhyanga as part of my self-care ritual for over 20 years and it is part of my daily routine. I speak from personal experience, the health benefits are powerful when done as a dedicated daily ritual.

It is a time to nourish, rejuvenate and reconnect with our deepest and truest self.
