Why Is It Relevant in Today’s World? ‘Each morning, the light of the sun dispels the darkness of the night. It makes no difference which part of the world it is shining upon or in which season or year. Similarly, the light of Vipassana dispels the darkness of ignorance and of misery regardless of the time or the place. Thus it is no wonder that the light of Vipassana—the light of wisdom—has proven itself of such relevance to the modern world.’ —S.N. Goenka We are going through turbulent times on many fronts. The novel coronavirus pandemic has taken over not just physically but plagues us menta ..read more

WHAT IS TEMPEH Pronounced ‘tempe’ is a traditional Indonesian food product, that is usually made from fermented soybeans (plant-based); but any whole bean (i.e., red kidney, white beans [chowli], chickpeas [chole], black beans, kala chana; any beans really) can be used. It looks like a cake, and the starches in the bean become easier to digest after we get the finished product post-fermentation i.e., tempeh. The process involves using a fungus (a good one) sold as a tempeh starter. It has this firm and earthy and nutty flavour, and is excellent for vegetarians who desire a more hardy texture ..read more

Sleep Hygiene I remember my friend Kamal saying “If I could gift anything to you anything it would be sleep.” This was a time in my life when I was extremely stressed. Sleep was a luxury. Two things I have worked hard on in my life are my constipation (as a child carried into my adult years, resulting in candida) and my sleep. Sleep is possibly the most precious of all bodily functions. We dream, de-stress and most important, give our body time to recover from the battering it has faced during the day. A daily quota of sound sleep is essential to our health and general well-being. I know I get ..read more

Understanding Inflammation What is Inflammation? If I told you to close your eyes, and think of inflammation – do it as we speak – what comes to your mind? This is what my mind will conjure: redness, swelling, rawness, pain and infection. Even if you thought of two of the aspects I listed, then we are on the same page. Inflammation is the body’s coping mechanism to outside elements that it cannot assimilate or recognize. Now imagine all that I had told you happening within the body over time, which turns into systemic inflammation. Modern medicine has recently started recognizing the correlati ..read more

Thanks so much to Shonali for all the help. For helping me in healing my autoimmune condition and holding space for my emotional health as well as. I was in a dark place with food and Shonali has helped me see food differently. In the beginning it was tough and she helped me navigate my cravings (especially biryani and Starbucks). Now, I don’t even crave yogurt or gluten. I still have a long way to go but I’ll able to create my meals myself. The biggest change for me was more energy, more vitality and prana, especially after years of adrenal fatigue and chronic body pains to live my day to day ..read more
