Springtime Wellness for Energy & Clarity
Ayurvedic Practices to Feel Your Best for The Season
As we settle into spring and new life is sprouting up around us, allow your body to experience resilience like never before by making small shifts to adapt to the changing season with Ayurveda.
Join Molly McConnell to explore common wellness challenges that arise during this seasonal transition (brain fog, allergies, heaviness, etc.) and gain simple, yet powerful, tools ensure you remain light, activated and clear this spring.
Intro to the three doshas
Get to know vata, pitta and kapha.
Dive into the fascinating world of Ayurvedic doshas — the primary energies that govern your Mind Body Type. In this workshop, you'll gain in depth insight into each of the three doshas – Vata, Pitta, and Kapha – and how they influence your physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
You'll learn how to identify your dominant dosha(s) and gain insight into your personal constitution, tendencies, challenges, and even cravings!
Then, gain practical strategies for balancing and harnessing your unique consition through foods, herbs and daily practices. Whether you're new to Ayurveda or familiar with some of the concepts, this workshop is a valuable opportunity to deepen your understanding of yourself and enhance your well-being.
Eat Right for Your Mind Body Type
Discover a unique approach for what, when and how to eat for your constitution.
In Ayurveda, healthy digestion is the foundation of deep wellness. Your digestive fire is responsible for transforming the food and beverages that you take into your body into the nourishment that supports your thriving existence. When digestion is healthy and comfortable, your cells are nourished and damaging toxins cannot build up in your body.
In this two hour workshop, we’ll begin with a short embodied yoga flow to support digestive strength, then we’ll sip herbal tea and dive into the core concepts. Beyond learning the overarching guidelines for healthy digestion, we will also explore how each mind body type experiences digestion differently, as well as specific recipes and remedies to support optimal absorption and assimilation for all doshas.
Ayurvedic cleansing 101
Learn the basics of a traditional detox.
Rather than being about deprivation and control, Ayurvedic cleansing offers something different — an opportunity to reset your system in a way that feels grounded and nourishing. Join Certified Ayurvedic Practitioner Molly McConnell to learn why Ayurvedic cleansing is so effective and how it works, as well as what you need to consider when preparing for your own cleanse.
Molly will provide herbal tea as you learn about the key components of a traditional cleanse and discover ways to customize your own experience by working within a time-tested framework. You will also gain insight into the root causes of toxic buildup in your own body, as well as how to identify it and release it.
Foundations of ayurveda
Understand what Ayurveda is — and why everyone is talking about it!
Somewhere along your journey you may have encountered the word Ayurveda. At the very least, you’re likely to have heard talk of Ayurvedic remedies or practices, as there are many that have worked their way into mainstream wellness practices.
Bring the Foundations of Ayurveda to your community. In this 2-hour deep-dive workshop, we’ll make the principles of Ayurveda accessible by applying them to the modern context.
We’ll cover the history and philosophy of Ayurveda in simple terms, and then provide practical rituals and remedies that participants can use to integrate Ayurveda into their lives every day.
3 Key Practices for energy & Clarity
Tap into your natural state of energy and clarity with easy-to-implement Ayurvedic practices.
The ancient wisdom of Ayurveda offers us powerful and effective tools for navigating modern challenges of stress, brain fog, fatigue, burnout, anxiousness and so much more. If you want to learn where to begin in cultivating the capacity and resilience that will allow you to show up as your best, join us. Certified Ayurvedic Practitioner Molly McConnell will guide you through three core practices to steadily support inspiration, motivation, focus, and energy in everyday life.
KNOw yourself, know your people
Have you ever thought about the ways in which your mind-body type interacts with the mind-body type of the other people in your life?
Ayurveda is similar to astrology, the Enneagram and Human Design in that it offers us a way of knowing ourselves, and understanding those around us.
Ayurveda offers us a simple, profound and cosmic framework for appreciating not only ourselves, but our teams, partnerships, family, and community.
Join Sierra for an evening to discover new ways of knowing the strengths, challenges, and unique approaches of yourself and the people in your life.
Walk away with deeper self knowing, and insightful tools to inspire more connection, creativity and generativity in all your relationships.
