Iโ€™m not usually a salsa personโ€ฆ but this one has me completely converted. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ…๐ŸŒฟ

Fresh peaches, ripe tomatoes, red onion, sweet pepper, fennel fronds, lime, ginger, and just enough seasoning to make everything pop.

Itโ€™s sweet, savory, bright, juicy, and honestly one of those recipes I kept going back to for โ€œjust one more bite.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚

Iโ€™ve been eating it with chips, but Iโ€™m also loving the idea of spooning it over grilled chicken or fish โ€” and I still have plans for a crisp sourdough cracker with goat cheese underneath. ๐Ÿ˜†

Late summer really knows how to show off.

Reiki Restorative is back on the schedule, and Iโ€™m so happy about it. ๐Ÿ’œ

This is truly one of my favorite classes to teach.

There is something so beautiful about creating a space where you donโ€™t have to do more, stretch farther, work harder, or accomplish anything at all.

Just settle in.

Supported restorative poses, blankets, bolsters, stillness, breath, and Reiki woven throughout the practice โ€” 75 minutes devoted to softening the body and giving the nervous system a little room to exhale.

Our next gathering is Thursday, September 17 at 6pm at Treehouse Studio.

I already have 2 beautiful souls joining me, and I keep this class intentionally small with space for just 6.

If your body has been asking for rest, grounding, or simply a little time to receive, Iโ€™d love to have you here. ๐Ÿ‚โœจ

Message me or reserve your space through the yoga section of my JenZen Living website.

The mornings are cooler, the air is beginning to feel drier, and many of us are returning to fuller schedules and familiar routines.

We are moving into Vata seasonโ€”the cold, dry, windy and changeable time of year when the body and nervous system often begin asking for more warmth, nourishment and steadiness.

Seasonal Abhyanga offers exactly those qualities: warm herbal oil, grounding pressure, rhythmic touch and time to simply receive.

I have one Seasonal Abhyanga appointment available this Friday at 11:00 AM.

If you have been feeling scattered, tense, dry, depletedโ€”or simply ready to begin fall with a little more groundingโ€”this space is available for you. ๐Ÿ’œ

Message me or schedule through the Ayurveda Care section of my website.

A gentle final reminder: today is the last day to reserve Seasonal Abhyanga at the summer special price. ๐Ÿ’œ

Reserve your 75-minute treatment today for $115โ€”regularly $125โ€”and schedule your appointment anytime through October 31.

You are welcome to reserve more than one fall appointment, and there is no package to prepay. Youโ€™ll simply pay for each treatment when you receive it. Reserving today holds your preferred dates and preserves the special price.

As we move into the cooler, drier and more changeable qualities of fall, Abhyanga offers warmth, grounding pressure, nourishment and a steady rhythm for the nervous system to follow.

If your body has been asking for a place to stop bracing and simply receive care, this may be your reminder. ๐ŸŒฟ

The special will be applied automatically when you schedule through the Ayurveda Care section of my websiteโ€”or message me if you need help finding an appointment.

Last nightโ€™s dinner began with onions, celery, and cabbage sautรฉing in gheeโ€”and then the garden started joining in. ๐Ÿ˜†

Summer squash, fresh tomatoes, basil, fennel fronds, and freshly grated turmeric all found their way into a warm bowl of chicken bone broth and spaghetti, finished with a soft-boiled egg and more fennel fronds.

The result was this Golden Garden Noodle Bowl with Soft-Boiled Eggโ€”brothy, grounding, full of vegetables, and comforting without feeling too heavy.

I made mine with one tomato and immediately knew it wanted another. So, naturally, the official recipe calls for two. LOL ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿ…

Itโ€™s a lovely meal for this seasonal space between late summer and early fall, when the garden is still abundant but the body begins asking for something a little warmer and more nourishing.

The full recipe is now on the JenZen Living website:

This summer taught me something I thought I already knew:

Nervous system regulation is not the same thing as control.

Between the heat, perimenopause, disrupted routines, an ER visit, and the ongoing practice of learning to rest, I had to listen differently.

Abhyanga helped. Yoga helped. Reiki helped. Nourishing food helped. Long Savasanas helped.

And, maybe more than I expected, the garden helped.

Barefoot among the plants, watching bees, birds, flowers, and vegetables grow, I often felt as though the garden was caring for me as much as I was caring for it.

This new blog is a more personal reflection on Ayurveda, regulation, rest, receiving care, and learning to listen before the body has to shout.

Reiki Restorative is returning to the Treehouse this fall. ๐Ÿ’œ

Lately, I have found myself drawn toward less movement, more stillness, and practices that give us time to truly notice what the body and nervous system need. Reiki Restorative feels like a natural extension of that. I am so happy to welcome it back to the schedule once a month through fall and early winter.

This 75-minute experience blends supported restorative yoga with individualized Reiki, offered either hands-on or just above the body according to your comfort. It is a space to settle, soften held tension, and simply receive.

Our first gathering will be:

Thursday, September 17
75 minutes โ€ข $28
Treehouse Studio, Athol

Space is intentionally limited so that each person can receive individual attention. Pre-registration is required.

You can find Reiki Restorative in the Yoga section of my website, or reach out to me directly with questions or to reserve your space. ๐ŸŒฟ

Golden hour isn't always golden because of the light.

Sometimes it's golden because, for a few quiet minutes, the whole world seems content to simply be. โœจ๐Ÿ’œ

Yesterday was another beautiful day at The Ayurvedic Garden Table. ๐ŸŒฟ

And once again, the garden reminded me why I created this experience.

We began at the Treehouse, wandered through the gardens, harvested what was ready, and eventually found ourselves in the kitchen cooking together, something I hadn't planned, but that felt completely natural.

Our late-summer table became braised fennel, summer squash with cabbage and leeks, grilled salmon, roasted beet hummus, ground cherries, and chocolate zucchini bread made with jaggery. We sipped a fresh tulsi, fennel and lavender refresher sweetened with amla honey that I will absolutely be making again. ๐Ÿ’œ

But the food is only part of the Garden Table.

It's the conversations that happen while we're walking. Tasting something directly from the garden. Talking about Ayurveda as it relates to real food and real life. Cooking together. Sharing what we know. Slowing down enough to notice what's growing around us โ€” and perhaps something within ourselves, too.

There is a rhythm to these gatherings that I'm learning not to over-plan.

Gather. Harvest. Nourish.

The next Ayurvedic Garden Table is September 19, when the garden and the season will have changed once again โ€” which means the experience will too.

I have room for just a few people around the table. If this sounds like a morning you'd love, I'd be happy to welcome you. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’š
