My Sacred Sisters, As we come to the close of another month inside our Sacred Vitality Collective, I want to invite you into a gentle moment of reflection. Not from pressure. Not from “shoulds.” But from devotion… to yourself, your vitality, and your becoming. This month, I’m sharing one of the simple yet powerful tools from our SVC library (you can find many more in the Guides Section → Sacred Vitality Collective Habits). This little habit tracker (1 is a quarterly tracker, the other is a 30-day tracker) is yours to print, pin on your mirror, place on your altar, or tuck on your fridge. Let it be a soft reminder of who you are choosing to become daily. Choose one habit each day — just one. A breath practice. A warm cup of herbal tea. A 10-minute walk after eating. Oil massage. Belly breathing. Anything that brings you back home to your body. Each day, tick your box. Celebrate the moment. And repeat. Tiny, sacred steps.This is how we rewrite our vitality, together. With all my love,Amrita 💛✨

In this powerful session, we explored what actual vitality feels like in a woman’s body — not the spike-and-crash hustle, but a steady, feminine power you can actually trust. Together we: - Redefined vitality as a lived experience: strong, supple, sustainable energy (not brittle or burnt out). - Practised simple nervous system regulation tools using the Polyvagal Ladder so you can gently climb from urgency or shutdown back into safety and connection. - Looked at how Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas show up in everyday life, and how to grow more clarity and calm through food, breath, and rhythm. - Honoured Agni as your inner flame — how warm, simple meals, regular meal times, and mindful eating steady digestion, mood, and energy. - Walked through a feminine daily rhythm (morning, midday, evening) that trades rush for ritual, and urgency for coherence. - Explored sleep, movement & menstrual cycle awareness as non-negotiable pillars of vitality for women over 35. - Learned the 5 gentle steps to reset when you’re spiralling: see it, soften, choose one regulating action, shift your behaviour, and celebrate yourself. This replay is for you if you’ve been living in “rush mode,” feeling scattered, inflamed, or exhausted — and you’re ready to be remothered by your own rhythms. Watch this when you need a reminder that you don’t have to push to rise. Your body can heal in rhythm, not in a fire drill.

Did you know that copper water bottles are a beautiful alternative to plastic reusable bottles? I have been using them on and off for years, as I never found a good one until now. I found them hard to clean, or started to react if I drank them on an empty stomach, because of the metals used. Now I use my copper bottle like a queen, and I want to share it with you, too. Here’s the clean, safe, Ayurvedic way 👇🏽 How to use a copper water bottle (tamra jal) 1. Use pure copper only.Good weight, no plastic lining, no weird coating inside. 2. Charge the water, don’t overdo it. 3. What NOT to put in it 4. Rotate intelligently How to clean it (so it stays medicine, not murky) Think gentle, regular, natural. Copper tarnishes; that’s normal. We clean it, we don’t battle it. After each day of use - Rinse with warm water. - Let it air dry with the lid off. Every 2–3 days (regular clean) Choose one of these: Option 1 (classic): - ½ lemon juice + 1–2 tsp fine salt (or baking soda). - Add a little warm water, swirl well for 20–30 sec. - Rinse thoroughly. Option 2 (if no lemon): - 1–2 tsp baking soda + warm water, shake, rinse. Once a week (deep clean) - 1–2 tbsp vinegar or lemon juice - Soak 5–10 minutes (not hours). - Use a soft bottle brush if needed. - Rinse very well. - Dry completely, lid off. Never do this - ❌ No dishwasher. - ❌ No bleach or harsh chemicals. - ❌ No steel wool / harsh scrubbers inside (they scratch, increase corrosion). - ❌ Don’t leave water sitting in it for days forgotten in a corner. When to replace / pause - If you see green/blue corrosion inside, pitting, flaking → deep clean once; if it doesn’t shift, retire it. - If the water tastes intensely metallic or makes you nauseous → stop, clean, reduce exposure, reassess.

Hey Sister, Consider this a little love note tucked into your shawl with some ginger tea. We made it through so much this year. We listened more deeply, we noticed when we where pushing harder, but then choose presence and trust over rush. By remembering what Ayurveda has whispered all along: health is harmony, presence is medicine, and your body already knows the way. Looking back on 2025, what changed in your inner climate? - Where did prāṇa (your life-force) expand — breath, creativity, intuition? Where did it scatter? - Where did tejas (your clear, intelligent fire) glow steady — and where did overdrive scorch the edges? - Where did ojas (your deep resiliency) quietly rebuild — warm meals, early nights, loving touch, sisterhood? October asked us to ground. You answered what one boundary can I keep? Was it one warm bowl at midday, one gentler bedtime. These small faithful choices are not small at all — they’re you choosing safety over speed. They’re you coming home. For the next two months, let’s finish soft and strong: - Choose one pillar to anchor you today: Is it remembering your cosy sleep window, warm lunch, daily walk, or 5-minute mantra? - Name one self-care practise that will free your energy? - Keep a simple kitchen sādhana - one day of the week (mini cleanse) Kitchari=lunches + dinner, Drink a cumin-coriander-fennel in a flask + nightly golden milk. - Tend your nervous system with one non-negotiable: left-nostril breathing, abhyanga, or a 15-minute nidra. Remember Dr. Vasant Lad’s gentle truth: “Ayurveda is the science of self-healing and the art of living.” You don’t need to be perfect to be whole. You need a pulse you can trust. If you want a little hand to hold, use these journal petals: 1. This year, my prāṇa grew when… 2. My tejas is steadier when I… instead of… 3. I feel ojas rebuilding when I add… and release… 4. In October, the miracle I almost missed was… 5. In the next 60 days, I will lovingly complete… 6. My one rhythm-anchoring practice is…
