What is 'Makaranda'?

The word "Makaranda" means nectar or honey of flowers, the rich, golden place at the heart of nature. In our practice, it represents the center-point — the still, grounded place within us that remains steady no matter what is happening around us.

Makaranda is the anchor amid life’s storms, the sweetness that exists even in chaos, and the calm that holds us when everything else feels uncertain. It’s the reminder that, regardless of the challenges or noise, there is a place within where we can return over and over again to find peace, presence, and connection.

​At The Makaranda Method, we honor this sacred space helping you find your own nectar, your own sense of sweetness, trust, and alignment, even when life feels overwhelming.

Hi, I'm Eleanor!

2/4 Manifesting Generator
Eco-Psychology Teacher, Cat Mom, Happy Wife
Earth-Lover

I’m a writer, beekeeper, philosopher, holistic coach, and founder of The Makaranda Method—a practice dedicated to helping us come home to ourselves, each other, and the Earth.

With a Master’s in Marriage & Family Therapy and thousands of hours spent in ceremony, meditation, and the messy magic of life, I teach mindfulness, somatic practices, and nature-based tools that help you shift your patterns, reconnect with your body, and live a life rooted in presence and peace.

Makaranda means “nectar” in Sanskrit. To me, that nectar is what we taste when we stop resisting life, when we allow ourselves to feel it all: the grief, the beauty, the doubt, the joy. It’s found in the center, the makaranda, where life and death meet, where Earth meets Spirit.

The Makaranda Method is not your typical path. It’s unconventional, just like me, and probably you. We blend ancient wisdom, modern psychology, neuroscience, and listening to help you break free from control, people-pleasing, and self-doubt so you can start living from wholeness, trust, and service, now.

Our Values...

  • Mind: Grow your clarity and self-awareness through mindfulness, shadow work, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and support from plant medicines. Learn the neuroscience of thoughts and align with the power of manifestation. Your thoughts & attention are your liberation.
  • Body: Cleanse and care for your body to create a clear channel. Hydrate deeply. Eat foods that come from the Earth. Move in ways that feel good. Be still when your body asks for it. Your gut and nervous system are always speaking—when you move with the messages of the body, healing happens.
  • Soul: Who you are being shapes everything. Your soul is the deep truth at the center of your life—not your job or your personality, but the essence you were born to express. We connect with soul through dreams, signs, and those quiet inner knowings that whisper, this is me. When you ask & listen from the deepest parts of you, you can trust yourself.
  • Spirit: Spirit is the great mystery that moves through all things—seen and unseen. Earth is not separate from this; she is our direct access point. When we walk barefoot on the soil, listen to the wind, or sit quietly with a tree, we remember: we belong to something vast, wise, and interconnected. We trust with awe.
