Do you need a short little break? I’d love to have you join us for our one day retreat coming up at the end of this month. It’s a slow and gentle one day getaway so that you can receive the benefits of a retreat without the packing and travel for multiple days.

This post isn’t about my business in that it’s not about an upcoming event or offering. And yet…it is about my business, because I AM my business and I have been very affected by what’s going on. If you are also struggling. You are not alone.
I don’t know about you, but it’s pretty hard for me to name a woman who hasn’t experienced SA. It’s your sister, your mom, your aunt, your friend, the woman you see at the grocery store, your barista, your accountant. You name it. I’m tired. I know my fellow survivors are too. I see you 🩵 by @amblewellbeing

As we’ve crossed the Autumn Equinox, it finally feels like the seasons are catching up here at Seven Springs. 🍂🤍

Recently we’ve been blessed with rain. It’s a welcome refresh after what has felt like an incredibly long, hot summer. In Ayurveda, this seasonal transition is known as Vata season: a time of change, movement, and letting go. Just about 10 days ago, Tennessee was under a heat dome and was reportedly hotter than the Sahara Desert. This past weekend? We made sure all of the mattress heaters were plugged in because nighttime temperatures were dipping into the upper 40s.

We’re here for all of it. There’s something deeply nourishing about staying connected to nature’s rhythms, and we’re happily welcoming the crisp air, colorful leaves, and slower pace of autumn.

Only Have One Day?

If a full weekend isn’t possible, Jessi & Amberly are excited to offer another Reconnection Day Retreat on October 25- an afternoon dedicated to nervous system regulation, gentle movement, rest, and reconnecting as the leaves reach their autumn peak.

I’m thankful every single day for the path that brought me to Ayurveda, because it taught me so many things: how to come back to balance when I’m feeling off, how to live seasonally so I can move through each season with ease, how just because one thing works for one person doesn’t mean it’s right for me, but most importantly it’s taught me more and more ways to get to know myself more deeply so that I can be kinder to myself with what I’ve learned 🩵 taken in Amble Wellbeing-Amberly Kelley-Dotson by @amblewellbeing

I say it all the time: you can’t give from an empty cup.
It’s time to take some of my own advice and go on a little adventure!
I’ll be out of the office September 5th-September 15th for a little birthday escape 🩵

There’s a lot of misconceptions about what yoga actually is (partially because the movement part of the practice has been co-opted by the fitness world and the deeper practices have been stripped from the practice in the west, but that’s a rant for another day).
When I talk with folks about yoga, it’s interesting to see and hear how they respond. So many people associate it with fitness, but that’s just not my understanding of these practices, and frankly I think it’s a very reductionist view of something that offers a LOT of deep healing opportunities.
I can get pretty frustrated by some of the messaging that I see happening in the yoga, so I wanted to share some of my views.
I’d love to hear your thoughts 🩵 taken in Amble Wellbeing-Amberly Kelley-Dotson by @amblewellbeing

A little bit of this
A little bit of that

Here’s some of the things I’ve been spending time with when I’m not in the office 🩵

If you know me, you know I always have a sapphic romance novel going at all times. I’ve been enjoying @katiaroseauthor recently 😊

Something you may or may not know is my love for The Black Madonna. I was so excited when I saw that @christenacleveland had a book coming out about The Black Madonna and have been so moved by it. Everyone should read it.

I’ve been a fan of @davidgatepoet for quite some time but never actually read his books! Thanks to @noravyogi for letting me borrow her copy of Rebellion of Care 🩵

Obsessed with all of these but tbh Survival of the Thickest has not gotten the recognition it deserves and I’ll die on that hill

Forever and ever a student. Curious about any of these? Let’s chat!

The late summer has been making my eyes feel so hot and dry. Doing a daily rose water eye rinse has been my saving grace.

On the other hand, the increase of cooler winds in the mornings and nights has gotten me back into my regular practice of ear oiling. It’s such a grounding practice and bonus points-it reduces jaw tension

I swear by all things rose. All summer I’ve been having lots or rose tea with a variety of different blends, but recently I’ve been turning to the mint I grow in my back yard 🩷 taken in Amble Wellbeing-Amberly Kelley-Dotson by @amblewellbeing

I can’t believe it’s here! AWB is moving out of the sweet little nook I’ve been in for the last 3 years. Starting September 1st, I’ll be off of Sutherland—quite close to my pals over at @amethystmassageknoxville

Can’t stress this enough! Ayurveda teaches us that EVERYTHING is connected. The WAY you eat affects how you digest. The way you take in information affects how you think. Your constitution shapes the way you move through the world. AND SO MUCH MORE taken in Amble Wellbeing-Amberly Kelley-Dotson by @amblewellbeing

Kinda chic to call your local Ayurvedic Health Counselor and get some individualized care 😉 taken in Amble Wellbeing-Amberly Kelley-Dotson by @amblewellbeing
