What’s your prakriti? Pitta-Vata
What are your signature gunas?
A lot of heat, light, mobile, subtle and sharp.
How would you describe your Ayurveda Dharma?
I am a healer and in every form of work I have taken, I am a healer. Currently a nurse practitioner transitioning into an integrated psych/mental health with Ayurveda practice.
What interests or work do you pursue outside of Ayurveda?
Yoga, enjoy being outside (live on a mountainside), hiking, trekking, being in nature.
What’s your favorite dinacharya these days?
Love oiling and then taking a hot shower!
What is your tidbit of advice or mantra that you’d share with a student of Ayurveda?
You are already wise! Don't overthink it. Enjoy the process - it is self awakening, self evolving, don't resist though it feels uncomfortable. You are in process to be your better self and in turn a better healer and practitioner.
What’s your personal strategy to strive for balance in the Winter this year (and why?)
Go to root vegetables (love sweet potato!) and spend time outside. I am a Vata in my Vata stage of life
Any other thoughts?
I'm starting a new business and I am very excited. Garnered a lot of interest in a very small community. I've connected with other Ayurveda people and have found everyone to be very warm and welcoming -- people are opening their doors to Ayurveda everywhere. A new opening - this is wonderful!
