Yoga & Ayurveda

The wisdom of Ayurveda keeps our mind, body and spirit in balance with nature. The tradition of Ayurveda rests on our ability to digest not only our food, but our thoughts, memories and impressions. In our hectic, fast-paced lifestyle, moving out of balance happens easily.

A consultation allows you to have a personalized evaluation based on a thorough intake and assessment. Together, we will look at the the information gathered to discover your Nature (Prakriti) and possible underlying causes of Imbalance (Vikruti). Based on our sessions, you will be given guidance and practices to restore balance and promote self-healing. Viewing the body as a holistic, integrated system, Ayurveda uses food, herbs, yoga, and many other lifestyle habits/choices as medicine.

A Mind Body Balance Consultation is bundled in 3 sessions:

• Session #1: 60-75 minute Initial Consultation with intake and assessment to discuss areas that need some balance and 1-2 recommendations for your practice.
• Session #2: 30-45 minute follow-up session a couple of weeks after your initial consultation to gauge your progress with the information and practices from your first session and you’ll be given more in-depth practices for your home-play.
• Session #3: email or phone session 6-8 weeks later as a check-in to see how you are doing, what support is needed and which practices need to be adjusted.

COST: $125.00 for the entire bundle (all 3 sessions)
 $65.00 for additional one-hour follow-up, as needed.

WHO THIS IS FOR AND WHY: This is for anyone seeking to create more balance and healing in their lives, no matter the issue. Maybe you are feeling stuck or doing things that aren’t working. Whatever is going on in your life, we all need support on a holistic level. Perhaps you are struggling with insomnia or stress; maybe your digestion is out of balance or you are just feeling disconnected in your life. No prior experience or knowledge in these two systems is necessary, and these practices are easily adaptable to anyone’s schedule, lifestyle and comfort-level.
