The Beginning

-

When a decade shows you that you are aligning with your purpose 🙏🏽

Since the beginning, I knew I wanted to be involved in a career that would serve and help others in any way possible, therapeutically.

YEAR 2009 : After completing my B.A. in Psychology, I attended a Holistic Health conference in Massachusetts, where I was introduced to the idea of Yoga Therapy. Until then the idea of holistic therapies didn’t cross my mind as an option. Right after the conference, I emailed one of the presenters. My message looked something like this:

“Dear...  Thank you for your presentation on Yoga Therapy. I am currently pursuing a career in Clinical Therapy, yet I had never thought about incorporating Yoga as a form of therapy until this week at Kripalu. I am amazed and excited at all the possibilities! I was hoping you could help me find some direction in getting started. I'm not sure how or where to begin. Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated...”

YEAR 2019: I have now opened my very own Holistic Health and Wellness Center:  The Skylit Ayurveda Center

Through all the ups, downs, failures, successes, uncertainties, insecurities, tears and fears, there is still love and hope that gets you to where you need to go. #trusttheprocess

I am forever grateful for my journey thus far, every hard lesson learned, every path I crossed and every blessing I received and look forward to more decades of learning, sharing, and growing. ❤️

🎶 What is Vibrational Sound Healing?

While people sometimes think a Sound Bath involves a tub and water experience as the word 'bath' implies, it is not quite that lol. Attending a sound bath or a private sound healing session may have become a popular service recently, but is one of the oldest and most powerful methods known to our world. "If meditation is taking the stairs, a sound bath is taking the elevator," Sara Auster, a Brooklyn-based sound therapist explains. "A sound bath [may] allow you to experience meditative states and relaxation within the short period of one session. With other types of meditation, one might have to practice consistently for a few weeks or months to feel the same kind of effect.” It can be the perfect introduction to meditation for beginners.  What Is a Vibrational Sound Bath? A sound bath is basically a meditation class (group or private) that allows you to enter into a deep meditative state while you are ‘bathed’ in ambient sounds played by your guide. The pa

Energy healing (Reiki or Chakra Balancing)

The who, what, where, when, how and most importantly why ? In physics, energy is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work on, or to heat, the object. Energy is a conserved quantity; the law of conservation of energy states that energy can be converted in form, but not created or destroyed. (Wikipedia) Ummm what??? Basically, from the days of Albert Einstein to today's mainstream Deepak Chopra, we know that everything is made up of 'energy'. A sort of invisible force that makes things form, move, shift and morph. Without making it sound too woo-woo or esoteric, think of it like this.  Just like a low WiFi signal will slow down your internet connection causing it to eventually shut down or  disconnect all together, your  mind and body can become weakened by the energy bodies, in and around it , being low on energy thus causing a weakened connection. Bear with me for a brief overview: As humans, we have

🌸 It's time to lighten your load!

🌸  Spring is coming!   It's time to lighten your load! As we finally emerge from Winter with Kapha in excess, we require assistance in eliminating all the toxic sludge (AMA) of Winter that is congesting our bodily systems.   Ayurveda is a science of qualities and relates to how we interact with the world.  The characteristics of Winter are wet, cold, dense, slow and hibernation.  We interact with this environment and absorb these qualities feeling sluggish, congested with a slower metabolism we gain weight, have a lack of motivation, a heaviness and dullness in the mind and body, and may experience excessive sleep.  We need to clear this heaviness and encourage the rejuvenation of Spring! Spring brings movement, water begins to flow again, flowers bloom, birds build nests – it’s a time of renewed energy and positivity.  We need to prepare our bodies adequately to benefit from this interaction so we once again can flow and bloom too! Here are some suggestions for combatting the hea
