I became an Ayurvedic practitioner and sound therapist because I found these methods to be really effective for me nine years ago when all three of my doshas were out of balance and I was in very deep distress.
I understand how challenging life events can be and how painful grief and trauma feels, but I also know how much a person can heal, grow and transform from experiences which at the time seem insurmountable.
It has taken nine years to reach this point. Mostly because for the good of everyone, including me – I didn’t want to be an unhealed ‘healer’. I knew I needed to focus on building myself up first and showing myself the same compassion and love that I had always given to others.
I can’t describe how painful I have found life sometimes. The shifts that I have undergone have been profound lessons. A number of traumatic events meant that I went from being a sunny natured, happy cheerful and positive person into not wanting to wake up in the mornings. I felt completely lost. Ayurveda and sound therapy have transformed my life so much and have helped me to heal mentally and physically and come back into a balanced, healthy and harmonious state. I am so grateful for this sense of inner peace and contentment that I want to help others to experience deep healing too.
These are not experiences I would want to repeat, but I’m also extremely humbled and grateful for these life lessons. It might sound weird, but I see the beauty in all the painful things now. Pain has been my most powerful and transformational teacher. I had to learn to face it, sit with it and feel it in order to transmute it.
It has made me a stronger, kinder, less judgmental, more capable, more boundaried, healthier and more loving human. I am most proud of the fact that I haven’t lost my softness or warmth.
I truly believe that everything that happened has been a learning gift for my soul. It makes me understand what a wide range of people who come to see me may or may not be going through ( we all have our own unique challenges) I also believe it was a necessary initiation of fire to put me on the right path. I basically had wandered off the path of Ayurveda and had to be kicked back on to it! ( I really feel my Indian grandmother, a deeply spiritual woman who helped people heal with ayurveda had a major hand/foot in this!:)
I have been studying clinical ayurvedic medicine for six years now. The purpose of ayurveda is to ease suffering and keep people healthy so that they can pursue their spiritual goals and live out their purpose in life, or dharma.
Just remember that no matter what you are going through you can find your way through and out and be much, much happier. The best is yet to come. I’m living proof. If this resonates then I would be delighted to help you heal.
