Me… learning Ayurveda out loud. Monthly conversations with vaidyas I really admire, asking the questions that never came up in class. If you’re curious about how Ayurveda can support your health today, let’s explore it together.


I’m a holistic wellness counselor and I believe food is medicine — which is why I wrote a couple of cookbooks:

The Essential Ayurvedic Cookbook - An introduction to Ayurveda and 200 recipes with variations for gluten free, dairy free, and carnivores.

Essential Holiday Bakes - Gluten-free Artisanal Cookies & Cakes - https://yogawithlois.com/essential-holiday-bakes/

I was trying to come up with a clever quip this morning but my head is too congested. GM! Bring me decongestants! #justkiddingicangetitmyself #hehetheotherhashtagsaystit

Hope you are feeling better.

Streaming a warm water saline rinse (yogis use a "neti pot", but you can use any small spouted cup) through each nostril will help clear congestion... CK out this article if you're not familiar

Inhaling Eucalyptus steam is also beneficial.

Ginger-lemongrass tea is also useful to open/flush the lymphatic channels.

Pressing Marma points along each side of the nose can also help open channels and move stagnation (see attached photo...if any of those points feel tender, gently press for 1 minute each)

Hope this helps 🙏

I actually have a neti pot at home. Looks like he needs to meet my nose again.

I haven’t had much experience with cats to know for sure, but I’m pretty sure it’s much harder 😂
