According to Ayurveda, we are all born with certain tendencies and attributes that can change over time, but our original nature stays pretty much the same throughout life. These are called the Doshas - they are the elements inside of us that mirror the elements of the natural world. We are made of space, air, fire, water and earth. We have more of some elements and less of others.
Rather than give you an entire lesson on Ayurveda here, suffice it to say that some people are spacey, easily distracted and highly creative. Some are hot and fiery, opinionated and perfectionistic, while others are laid-back, easy-going, and sometimes downright lazy! We all have a little bit of each dosha, but one or two predominate.
At my Kripalu workshop ( https://kripalu.org/experiences/embodied-writing-method-retreat-weekend?sku=18439316) May 8-10, 2026, you will learn to harness the power of your doshas and channel it into your writing. Drawing on ancient Vedic teachings such as Vastu Shastra (Feng Shui), yoga, meditation, writing exercises, craft tools, food, and lifestyle choices, you will transform your writing practice — in fact, all of your creative endeavors will benefit from the teachings.
This is my second time teaching this workshop at Kripalu - literally a dream come true for me! I can’t wait to spend time together with you.

Let’s Write & Roam,
