I was a young single mom who put herself through college while supporting my son, worked full time, and managed to get a pre-law degree simultaneously, all before the age of 22. Still have no idea how I did it. My motivation came from the desire to give him and myself a better life.
I took my first Yoga class at a Sivananda Ashram in 2007. I was 34 years old and thought it was designed as personal torture. I was completely miserable due to my limited flexibility. I could not touch my toes or basically do any of the postures. Also, could not sit still for more than 5 minutes.
I spent 3/12 years basically in solitude practicing Yoga following my stint at the Ashram. Practicing mediation, Vedic science, pranayama, and asana.
I’m a plant nerd, fascinated by all things holistic and healing, and open to anything that relates to any of the following topics, plant medicine, yoga, Vedic science, mediation, Ayurveda, and nutrition.
I meditate daily and can sit still for hours now, I believe the mind is the creator of everything in my life. I guess I always did in some respects. I just needed to refine my mindset. I owe everything to the discovery and practice of YOGA. It taught me how to heal myself.
