Yoni Egg: Magick of Manifestation

December 28, 2017 at 11:44 am

Sensuality. Connection. Shakti ACTIVATION. Manifestation.   These are the words that immediately flow into my consciousness when I think about what this exquisite feminine practice has done for me.   This practice has been around for millennia. In ancient China, women used the practice of inserting an egg shaped crystal made out of Jade into their yoni, the Sanskrit word for vagina that I find super juicy to use as part of my vocabulary.   Quite commonly known,…

Chai Chocolate Macaroons

December 13, 2017 at 6:05 pm

When at home in our routines, it may be easier to find our grooves with eating balanced meal plans.  Yet, traveling and gathering with family and friends for big holiday meals that include decadent desserts, extra cocktails, and hors d’oeurvres, can throw off those routines and cause a bit of havoc on the gut-microbiota from additional sugars and carbohydrates that break down quickly  (think cakes, stuffing, and mashed potatoes from white potatoes). After the holidays are over, we…

Sweet Potato Mash for Menopause: Reduce Dryness & Weight Gain

November 19, 2017 at 10:48 am

Menopause, or “Moonpause” as I like to call it, is an experience of great hormonal change, requiring specific nutrients to support changes in sex hormones. Two common symptoms of moonpause that women experience are vaginal dryness and weight gain, particularly around the middle. Moonpausal changes as well as society’s negative imprints of “losing your youth” can cause negative feelings toward this sacred change, which is truly a “Rights of Passage.” “Like pregnancy and childbirth, menopause is a time…

Aphrodisiac Tonic with Lemongrass

October 16, 2017 at 2:22 pm

After 5 years of birth control contraceptive use, I realized my libido was absent… a symptom that many women end up experiencing from long-term birth control use. The birth control contraceptive can increase the production of Sex-Hormone Binding Globulin levels (a protein in your liver that binds to sex hormones like testosterone) which can lead to lower testosterone levels and eventually, low libido. The pill can actually change genetic expression within the liver to create more SHBG. Furthermore,…

Top Five Foods that Decrease Menstrual Cramps

September 27, 2017 at 9:10 am

Severe period pain, or dysmenorrhea, that causes you to cancel work, lie in bed all day, or prevents you from doing your normal daily goddess activities is NOT normal. I reflect back to the days I was in college when I used to experience these pains. My diet was made up of typical dorm food: lots of pizza, sub sandwiches, bagels for breakfast, bags of chips with trans-fat, lots and lots of sugary cookies, too much beer and…

Fertility is sensual and playful… and if you are trying to boost your fertility, why not add some playfulness into your kitchen?

Five Healthy Hormone Breakfast Ideas

April 21, 2017 at 8:15 am

When it comes to hormone health, skipping breakfast may exacerbate hormonal issues. Conditions like Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), where there are small cysts in a pearl like string on your ovaries, are greatly impacted by blood sugar.   Skipping breakfast in the morning or having coffee for breakfast can spike cortisol levels and insulin. With PCOS, there are typically excess androgens, like testosterone. Excess testosterone can give you unwanted rogue hairs on areas of the body like the…

Spring marks a time of renewed energy, growth, and longer days of sunlight. As this season relates to the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle, we experience new ideas with the energy to put them into action, which is associated with the rising estrogen of our inner spring phase.

How to Make Your Own Sauerkraut

March 20, 2017 at 12:46 pm

Our hormones are greatly impacted by the health of our gut. If our gut microbiome has been compromised by foods with preservatives, pesticides, and additives, then our digestion may not be up to par to absorb all the micronutrients we need for hormone regulation. For example, leptin, the hormone that controls appetite and tells us when we are “full,” is impacted by the gut. A healthy colony of gut flora increases our sensitivity to leptin, helping us know when to…
