Before I started coaching eighteen years ago, I was a Yoga Teacher and Clinical Ayurvedic Specialist. I helped my clients to feel better emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I’d use the techniques of Ayurveda to help clients learn what would bring them greater balance.
What I found, again and again, was that my Ayurvedic clients may have started out wanting to improve a health problem, but our sessions needed to focus on the energy and emotional level before general wellness could balance.
Later, when I became a Life Coach, it became clear to me that both Ayurvedic counseling and Life Coaching were helpful on their own. However, when they were combined, they became even more powerful. I loved the clarity that Life Coaching brought, its ability to help clients create clear goals, plan small actions, and to use strategies that helped them find their creativity and purpose. And the framework of Ayurveda gave me tools for teaching clients practices they could use daily to repair and nourish their systems.
