[Raw Almonds | Chocolate Goji Berries | Tea for Her | Softbound Journal]
The Lunar Wellness Kit is a curated monthly gift set exclusively priced below retail value for subscribers. For the month of May the theme is "Nourishing Ojas".
The May Lunar Wellness Kit includes:
The month of May is an optimal time to restore harmony and balance through nourishing your “ojas.” Ojas (pronounced oh-jus) is a biochemical substance referred to in Ayurveda as the refined result of digestion, metabolism, absorption, and assimilation. Ojas is the sap of life energy that exists on a subtle level in the heart chakra and pervades the entire body giving stability and support. A non-physical substance, it nourishes all bodily tissues (especially reproductive) and has a direct influence on the nature and quality of physical, mental, and emotional life. One can view ojas as the reward for eating healthfully, taking time to relax, appreciating the joys in life, and following the heart’s passion.
We’ve created May’s Lunar Wellness kit with ojas in mind. Each product, as well as the supplemental lifestyle tips and recipes, will help you eat well, relax, calm the mind and open the heart. This kit is also unique because it is the first month YogaEarth is delivering all lunar wellness kits at once, corresponding their arrival with the full moon. As you open your kit and enjoy the treasures it includes, we hope you’ll look out your window at the full moon above and open your heart the worldwide community of people that are enjoying the same path toward wellness as you are. Read more about our “Global Tea Hut” concept on the What's Inside tab above.

Allergen Information: Contains nuts. No glutens, dairy, animal or seafood products, corn, wheat, additives, excipients, high fructose corn syrup or synthetic sweeteners.
Raw almonds are highly regarded in Ayurveda for their grounding nature and ability to produce and nourish the ojas. They lubricate the skin and microcirculatory channels while supporting the tissues and reproductive system. Rich in vitamin E and magnesium, protein, calcium, iron, phosphorous, potassium, and zinc, almonds are a highly sustaining food.
YogaEarth’s almonds are uniquely raw and unpasteurized, ensuring you get all the naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, enzymes and healthy oils. Ayurveda recommends eating ten almonds a day, preferably after soaking, to help build ojas.

According to ancient Chinese traditions, Goji berries enhance the energy of life known as “chi” and support the function of vital organs. For centuries they have been revered as a tonic for the eyes, liver and kidneys and early Chinese medical texts refer to their ability to replenish vital organs, strengthen physique and promote longevity and overall health. Goji berries have a vitalizing impact on the ojas, promoting vital energy and movement throughout the body.
Sun-dried to preserve their complete array of nutrients, then enrobed in chocolate, YogaEarth’s Chocolate Covered Goji Berries are truly an "Intelligent Indulgence". Organic cacao paste and cacao butter, the foundations of the chocolate coating, provide additional antioxidant power to these nutrient-rich treats. Enjoy plain as a delicious snack or added to salads, baked goods, or trail mixes as a special treat. These decadent treats should be sincerely savored and enjoyed!

Through its nourishing effects, this blend of herbs encourages healthy circulation of ojas throughout the female body.

Soaking Raw Almonds & an Almond-Date Ojas Drink
To soak: submerge almonds in a bowl of pure water and let them sit at room temperature for 12 to 24 hours. The quantity of water should be double the quantity of almonds because the almonds will expand. Make sure to soak them in a glass container and if you cover them, use something breathable like a cloth towel. After soaking, drain almonds from the water and pat dry with a clean towel. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in a cool, dry, dark place for up to 3 days.
Place the non-dairy milk or water, cinnamon and cardamom in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to boil, then remove from heat and the saffron. Let cool for a few minutes, then combine with the almonds and dates in a food processor. Puree until smooth and enjoy!
“So-Hum” Meditation
Mantra meditation enhances the vibrant energy of the body. Vibrant energy depends on ojas power. So Hum translates as “I am that”, and is a powerful mantra that promotes self-healing, peace, and tranquility. This mantra also works to unite individual consciousness with universal consciousness.
Sit in a comfortable position or lie on your back to practice this meditation. If seated, sit tall and lengthen the spine. Take five slow breathes through the nose to oxygenate the blood and relax the body from head to toe. Try to remain as still as possible. Inhale slowly while mentally repeating the sound “Soooooooo” and then exhale slowly while mentally repeating the sound “Hummmmmmm”. As you continue to chant silently the mantra in rhythm with your breath, allow its meaning to translate as vitality from within.
