Where in your life have you been working against your own nature, without even knowing it? I ask this question a lot in my practice. And the answers almost always surprise people.. not because they did not know the answer somewhere, but because they had never been asked so directly. For some women, it shows up in their morning routine. Many of us have one that belongs to someone else's constitution entirely. For others, it is the career path that made sense on paper but never quite fit. For others, still, it is the way they rest, or do not rest, or the seasons of the year that consistently derail them. Ayurveda has a name for this drift. It is called Vikriti — the distance between who you were born to be and how you are currently living. The Cultivating You Series this August is built around closing that distance. I would love to hear from you in the comments. Where do you feel that friction most? You do not have to have the full answer. Just notice where the question lands.

This August, I am running a three-part workshop series called the Cultivating You Series at Herbal Solutions and Spa in Aiken, SC. Three Saturday afternoons. Three layers of the same essential question: Where in your life have you been working against your own nature, without even knowing it? Here is what the series looks like: Workshop One: See Yourself Clearly — Saturday, August 1, 1:00 to 4:00 PM Meet your Future You through guided meditation. Map the gap between where you are and where you long to be. Leave with a letter from your future self and a vision board to carry home. Workshop Two: Know Your Nature — Saturday, August 8, 1:00 to 3:00 PM Discover your Ayurvedic constitution, your Prakriti and Vikriti, your natural strengths, and the patterns that quietly deplete you. Leave with a personalized map of what nourishes you and what drains you. Workshop Three: Cultivate Your Path — Saturday, August 22, 1:00 to 3:00 PM Weave your vision and your constitution into a real strategy and a step-by-step timeline toward your goal. $25 per workshop. Book all three for $60. Intimate by design. Spaces are genuinely limited. If you are in the Aiken area or can make the drive, I would love to have you in the room. This community gets first access before it goes to the general public. Reserve your spot at cultivatingwellnessllc.com or call 704-860-1943.
