About me: Heather
Training:
Ayurveda:
- I worked at Maharishi Ayurveda Health Center for over 6yrs, doing Ayurvedic body-work, learning meditation, food and lifestyle. From their I trained massage therapists in the Ayurvedic body-work. I helped the Maharishi group open an Ayurvedic Day Spa, set up, pricing and training. I then went on to Kripula to continue my training. Along the way I was involved with Harvard Medical and WHO , as they looked at bringing Ayurveda to the forefront of health.
- I have just recently completed my Ayurvedic Health Counseling (650 hrs) and will be continuing on to the Advanced Ayurvedic Training in 2023
Massage:
- I completed my massage program at an accelerated school in 2005. I have continued my training in Reiki, Cancer massage, cranio- sacral, Thai Yoga massage, and meditation.
Herbology:
- I trained at the Boston school of Herbalism. I took the herbalism course and the advanced training course, where I learned to work with my clients and suggest herbal programs. I have continued training and working with herbal resources as I have continued to grow and learn through herbs.
What's next:
As I continue to focus on my herbs and Ayurveda my goals and focus is on more advanced training
I have complete my Ayurvedic Health Consular program this past spring. I am in the process of furthering my herbal education and Advanced Ayurveda Training.
As I move through this journey and learn and grow, I bring this into my practice everyday.
There is always going to be more ways to learn and bring this back to you.
My Interests
I'm always looking for ways to live easy and simply. I love to harvest herbs and use them in my cooking.
I love taking, walks and exploring, just being outside.
I enjoy reading and usually it has to do with Ayurveda, herbs and wellness.
I say this to my clients, I have said this in many talks, " I live a lifestyle that emulates what I believe, what I share.
