Do you feel the heat of the holiday season already? 

This heat sounds like:
* Do even more than you already do
* Buy more and make sure what you buy is the most perfect gift ever 
* Hurry up with all that more now
* Do "the more" with a smile and deep gratitude 
​
This is a cultural approach to the holidays. Its promise and pressure are clear.
Do these external things...
* To be more
* To validate your worth and feel secure 
* PLUS to make everyone around you feel supported and prioritized first and at your expense

If you're not feeling the heat, thank God! If you are feeling the heat, thank God! 

Whatever you're feeling, you need heat inside and out to survive. Non-negotiable.

Step outside the judgment paradigm that creates the heat of inflammation.

Step into a spiritual approach to the holidays that's anchored in timeless, ancient wisdom.  

Its fire sounds like:
* Go within, dear one 
* Please go within 
* Listen with a tender, open heart 
* Stay. No need to rush away 
* Lavish yourself with a huge dose of grace (AKA cut yourself some major slack!)
* Decide what to do next based on what you uncover

This fire's promise without the pressure is clear. Turn within...
* To remember who you always have been and are
* To make decisions based on what you actually need (vs. giving your authority to outside voices)
* Create inner peace and live with integrity

The sooner you start, the sooner you will reap the benefits, AND the benefits are cumulative! 

In Ayurveda, this inner fire is called agni. It's your digestive fire found in every one of your cells. 

It's also that passionate part of your soul that wants to help you live from an aligned place of utter acceptance and nourishment as the norm. 

A simple, incredibly effective place to start stoking agni is also very simple. Sip on warm tea that specifically helps support physical digestion. 

Teas are my daily staple for supporting myself with herbs! By consuming the herbs in tea form, they are more bio-available; in other words, you get more of their benefits. 

By sipping regularly on one of the digestive teas shown below, you will reap these benefits:

• Stimulate agni 
• Decrease gas
• Help with indigestion
• Flush out toxins
• Relieve congestion
• Sooth inflamed mucous membranes
• Improve elimination
• Calm your mind

​
​It really can be that effective AND easy! 

Stoking the fire of everlasting life one sip at a time,
​Tara
