Yoga | Tanmatra Chikitsa | Vastu | Ayurvedic Acupressure (Marma) & Sound Healing
I am an E-RYT® 200, and YACEP® Yoga instructor, certified in Ayurvedic Acupressure (Marma Healing) which includes applied sound vibration. I am fortunate to have studied and completed a marma healing practicum under the guidance of Dr. Vasant Lad.
My approach to healing utilizes the application of ancient Vedic healing techniques and principles to engage the sacred senses and work to awaken cellular communication and intelligence within the body, providing rejuvenation and nourishment to the mind, body, and consciousness. Vedic Tanmatra Chikitsa (sensory/energetic therapies) including sound healing, warm or cold applications (such as warm stones), and Ayurvedic acupressure (primarily using sound vibration), are used to activate inner awareness and the body’s natural ability to self-heal. The integration of these techniques allows one to rest deeply and restore the nervous system and vital energies within.
Tools: Himalayan and crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, gongs, Tibetan bells, warm and cool stones, organic essential oils
The Vital Essence Sound Bath offered through the studio, is an example of this integrated sensory treatment. Individualized sessions can allow for a deeper, more personalized experience, in which ayurvedic methods are used to assess imbalances, and a treatment session is designed to support your specific nature and individual needs.
Story
I practiced Yoga asana and meditation from a young age, but it was under a Tibetan Buddhist teacher, that I began to open to the depth and breadth of the mind and the power of self-healing that could be experienced through the ancient traditions found throughout India and much of Southeast Asia. This realization sent me first to the Himalayas of northern India for study and later to southern India. I primarily studied Buddhism and Ashtanga Yoga and was also introduced to Ayurveda as a self-healing aspect of Yoga (versus being a separate science). I have studied and practiced traditional Ayurveda from this yogic perspective.
While living in McLeod Ganj, India, I completed yoga teacher training with Vijay Amar, while volunteering to teach English to Tibetan Buddhist Monks and Nuns through the Lha Charitable Trust. Some of the most memorable and educational moments on my path were the conversations I had through friendships made in the monastic community where I taught English. Many of these conversations stayed with me and reshaped my life and path.
After returning from India the first time, several events brought a tremendous amount of stress and grief into my life. During this time, I realized the power of the yogic and ayurvedic-based practices I had touched upon in my earlier studies. These events formed the basis of my decision to continue down the path of learning the Vedic sciences and eventually to open a studio and wellness space focused on helping others find similar relief and rejuvenation. The space has less of a focus on fitness, and more of a focus on holistic wellbeing rooted in the yogic tradition, including Ayurveda, with small class sizes and private, personalized offerings.
