I have been proud to serve as a faculty member at Minnesota Institute of Ayurveda this past year (and more to come!) and have been honored to be a part of these amazing students educational journey through the Ayurvedic health counselor (AHC) program! It has been amazing to watch them learn, grow and evolve as professionals. I once stood in their spot through the AHC program as well as the Ayurvedic practitioner (AP) program. Some AP students are also represented in this photo and some AHC are missing due to being online or unable to attend. Congrats AHC & AP classes of 2026! Can’t wait to see where the beginning of this journey takes you! And thank you for the beautiful flowers 🥰

I am the grateful recipient of fresh beeswax from a family friend! I’ve learned how to process it this year - as you can see in the steps here it is a little putzy and messy but wow, the final product is fantastic!!! first I melt down the raw product in water and the beeswax floats to the top. Then I take the discs off and discard the water underneath that contains a lot of honey I imagine! Then in a double boiler, I melt down the discs and filter it through cheese cloth and pour it into these cube trays in 2 tablespoon sections for easy measure measurement when I make my products. This process was done a little at a time over several weeks when I had a few minutes here or there to fit in the steps. Tiffany Reinitz

You may notice this showing up as irritability, inflammation, overheating, or feeling more “on edge” than usual. In this blog, I share simple Ayurvedic insights and practices to help you stay cool, balanced, and grounded as we move into the fiery energy of summer.

Is "May-cember" making you crazy? You know - all the business of December without all the lights and gifts of the holiday season? Now is the perfect moment to re-visit my blog post about stress and resilience. It doesn't have to be a big event (such as a two hour massage) for self care - but noticing the day to day moments, being mindful, sharing gratitude. These small, simple acts can go a long way.
