Why Me?

I’ve been there, and I want to help.

In my 20s, a car accident changed my life. Years of lingering fatigue, physical symptoms, and emotional ups and downs followed -- nothing dramatic enough to bring back to a doctor, but enough that I didn't feel like myself for years.

Conventional and naturopathic care got me through the critical stage. Ayurveda is what helped me close the rest of the gap -- one small, consistent habit at a time. Within months, I felt a real shift in my energy, my mood, and how present I felt in my own life.

That experience is why I do this work now. I trained intensively in Ayurveda (a 681-hour Principles of Ayurvedic Medicine program at the California College of Ayurveda) and continue to study with the Ayurvedic Institute. I bring that training together with over 20 years of my own practice in Ayurveda, yoga, and mind-body wellbeing.

I'm not a doctor, and I don't diagnose or treat illness. What I offer is 1:1 coaching -- a calm, experienced guide to help you notice what your body is telling you and build a sustainable path back to feeling like yourself.

How Ayurveda Works

It’s small shifts, consistent over time that will make the biggest change in your health and well-being.

Ayurveda is a holistic approach to well-being that originated in India thousands of years ago -- often described as a sister practice to yoga.

Rather than focusing on a single symptom, it looks at your whole daily life: food, sleep, movement, stress, environment, even the seasons, and how all of it affects how you feel and contributes to your health.

Ayurveda works with every-day tools

  • What you eat and your daily routine is the foundation of Ayurvedic practises to improve health and well-being.

  • Your body may need more rest or movement, depending on your symptoms and your Dosha (body type).

  • Herbs taken through teas, hot milk, or other methods can help support your system to restore and revitalize.

  • Meditation, breathing techniques, mantra, and other yoga-based methods can help support healing.

  • Ayurveda focuses on what the senses take in. This includes what you see, smell, and hear. Your home, what you watch on TV, even the colour of your clothes can affect your well-being. This will be different for each person.
