September’s Monthly Intention

by Carolyn Collin September 1, 2016

This month, practice the intentional power of sending love and compassion to yourself, family, friends, foes, animals, bugs, plants, trees, traffic goer’s, and anything else in the World at large. When we practice looking at everything with loving eyes then its much easier to accept and embrace ourselves fully. Our card of the month reads, “Compassion is the passion that arises from the wish that all beings be free from suffering.”

One idea you could incorporate in your morning routine is to sit up in bed with your spine straight, reaching the crown of your head up to the sky. Next, close your eyes and take in about three to six deep cleansing breaths. Notice the weight of your body being fully supported.

On your next inhale, breath in a beautiful rose coloured light while thinking of warm-hearted thoughts about yourself and others. On your exhale, breath out any dark coloured hues while releasing any sad and frosty thoughts. Repeat this for about five to seven minutes before starting your day. This minuscule and humble practice does not require a giant investment. You can take this a step further by keeping track of how this may be influencing your day to day life. Be well beloved.

Get in Touch With Your Inner Dosha

by Carolyn Collin September 8, 2016

I first learnt about Ayurveda and dosha’s through the teachings and practices of yoga. Ayurveda is a holistic approach to one’s health and is unique to each individual depending upon one’s mind and body constitution. Its a guidance method for how to maintain emotional and physical health throughout your day.

Ayurvedic Medicine Reflects On the Individual…

It began thousands of years ago in India and has made its way into our Western culture. When it comes to eating, I feel that modern medicine, groups everyone in a one size fits all category such as Canada’s Food Guide push, which advises how much we should all be consuming from all the food categories without consideration of you as a unique individual. With this being said, Ayurvedic medicine reflects on the individual and his/her lifestyle as well as emotional and psychological daily tendencies.

So What’s A Dosha?

Ayurveda describes the dosha’s, “three energies believed to circulate in the body and govern physiological activity.” The three types are Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Each comes with its own list of foods you’d be best to stay away from and foods that would line up beautifully with your body as a whole. When you make the decision to eat in alignment with your dosha, you open the doors to feeling at an optimal health in your mind, body and spirit.

How Do I know What Dosha I Am?

There are plenty of websites out there with quizzes ready for you to answer a culmination of questions to find out your dosha. Note, we can typically find ourselves to be a combination of these though one may be your primary.  Perhaps you may want to check out Joyful Belly which has a “create your diet” tab along with recipes and a list of ingredients that work for each dosha.

Doing some research in this area is worth a shot especially if you’ve been feeling low energy, lethargic, anxious, fearful and not so hot on the outside as well. It could be that your food consumption is contributing to your ill feelings. As always, wishing you well.

Womanition by Dorothy Briggs

by Carolyn Collin September 14, 2016

Womanition Inc. is celebrating their 10th Anniversary this year! I am proud to be apart of this dynamic group of ladies, as well to be featured in the September issue, page 20. I’ve decided to honour Dorothy Briggs by recommending her magazine this month, instead of my regular “book” recommends. She puts a lot of effort behind the scenes in bringing this project together and it does keep getting better every year.

The reason why I love being apart of this network of gals is because they truly support and empower woman to be their best. In addition, they assist in growing your business, developing you as a woman in business and encourage other woman in our communities to want more for themselves.

I was touched by a story Dorothy shared today about a trouble woman who used to keep her drugs hidden inside a copy of a Womanition magazine she picked up at a grocery store. She found herself reading the inspirational stories and decided to change her life around. It just goes to show you, you never know what your efforts will change in others lives.
