ABOUT
The Person Behind the Practice
I didn't choose this path; it found me. What started as curiosity became a calling, and over the years, that calling has shaped how I see the world, how I listen, and how I show up for the people who sit across from me.
It began with stillness, the long pause of 2021, a season of contemplating purpose, and a book pulled from my mother's shelf almost by accident: The Science of Self-Healing by Dr. Vasant Lad. I knew nothing of Āyurveda then. Nothing of Dr. Lad, or the Institute, or the lineage I would eventually study within.
A Jyotish reading not long after, with Ksanati, a Jyotishi my mother knew, who happened to have studied there himself, confirmed what the book had already begun to whisper. This was the path. Āyurveda wasn't a subject to study. It was a thread already woven into the path. The reading gave me the confidence to follow it.
What followed has been a slow, steady unfolding; four years under Dr. Lad, studying Ayurveda Jyotish and Yoga. Three sciences, one thread, speaking a different language for the same truth: you are already whole. The work is remembering.
