As it comes with most healing journeys, I started mine in a moment of exhaustion and vulnerability. I was working with my care team to attack something that troubles us all: depression and anxiety. I needed to address these issues with full force, so my therapist suggested yoga. I hadn’t really delved into the world of yoga and self-healing, so to say I was skeptical would be putting it lightly.
After a bit of discussion with my care team, I finally decided to take the plunge and enter the quiet space in my mind, finding the peace that existed within my vessel.
Following the first few sessions, I started to experience less difficulty with calming the noise, steadying my breath, and feeling my heartbeats. A whole new world of self-care had become available to me, and I was there, ready to listen.
Yoga opened the door to many Eastern wellness practices unfamiliar to me in the West. I started attending more classes, workshops, and seminars for wellness, and finally, Ayurveda waved her beautiful hand in my direction and offered a path so wholesome in connection with one’s person that I knew I had found my calling.
Solidifying that knowledge was when my daughter began experiencing some health problems that were not responding to typical western protocols. I guess you could say part of my motherly instinct called me to try what I had learned in Ayurveda to aid my daughter’s chronic digestive issues. With time and lots of communication, we found the root cause of her troubles, formed a protocol that complimented her dosha, and waited to see the results. Within months, she was feeling better, eating new favorite foods, and thriving in life!
I knew my mission was to empower and inspire my clients toward awakening the healer within.
For the past four years, I have continued my education at the California College of Ayurveda. I am currently working on my Doctor Certifications in Kerala Ayurveda wellness.
I hope to work with you if the connection feels right.
