Elle Word: Authentic

Who inspires me:

I will forever be inspired by Baba Hari Dass’s words: “The world is not a burden. We make it a burden by our duties, responsibilities and fears.” We must make peace with these aspects in order to find peace within our self. Baba was a silent monk for over 70 years and this wisdom was introduced to me 11 years ago and since has cleaned-up relationships, supported me through career changes and continues to be a daily trial of what’s worth my time. It also set the tone to support two natural and healthy births and even how I interact with my children today. This thought process enhances one’s authentic self, so I offer this inspiration to you. Simple words. Never spoken, only felt.

Approach:

You have the power to heal yourself, improve your outlook on life, and be self-sufficient if you listen closely. Learning the language that your body is speaking will help you find combinations of healing modalities that integrate smoothly into your lifestyle. These tools help you manage your fears, day-to-day mundane duties, responsibilities and stressors. As there is no one cure for anything, I blend in somatic experiencing, mindfulness tools to enhance healing in your talk therapy sessions and yogic lineages of Hatha, Anusara, Bhakti, Iyengar, Yoga Therapy and Kundalini for a well-rounded physical, emotional and soulful session.
We owe wisdom to the next generation. It all starts with you, here and now.
