In the February Yoga and Cooking program, we shared ways to connect with the subtle vibrations of our heart center, which is the seat of our inner bliss and soul. We meditated on the Anahata Chakra (heart center), sipped on a vibrational heart opening tea and enjoyed a hearty, heart healthy protein and fiber rich meal. When making the choices for this month's program, it became clear that all that we do comes back to the heart. How do you nurture your heart? Classes are available in the Classroom

Hi All: Happy Sunday from San Francisco!

Winter Storm Fern is creeping towards us here in the United States and she's sure bringing with her a mess of cold weather and messy precipitation. Here in Asheville, we're going to get freezing rain and we have a high risk of losing power for an extended period of time. With the chance that I'll be sitting at home for a few days and unable to cook, I've been planning out some healthier pre-made foods to keep the ultra-processed foods out of the pantry. Here's what I'm going to prepare and have on hand for weekend: - Roasting nuts and dried fruit with masala and ghee - Hummus - Fresh Fruits, such as apples and bananas - Hard boiled eggs - Paneer - Granola Will the storm affect you? How are you preparing your food for the days ahead?

I loved the talk on digestion that we did at last class. Carol's reminder to chew our food 32 times to start digestion was great. I have learned that before, but needed that reminder. Great class on making paneer and using it in a meal. Wonderful heart opening class with Kathleen Wright before the cooking class, got me up early and ready for the day!

There's a lot of Sanskrit terms used in Yoga and Ayurveda and you'll likely hear us use them in conversation. Of course you can always ask us to explain the meaning of the word, we're happy to explain it! Also, you can reference the growing glossary of terms on the Bodhi Ayurveda website
