Yoga Therapy is perhaps the most physical yet spiritual demonstration of the mind-body connection to wellbeing. Yoga's ability in helping to let go of anxiety and provide an emotional release is well documented among yoga practitioners. Our Yoga Therapy takes its benefits one step further. It is based on the concept of energy, and how your body absorbs and holds on to each and every one of your experiences, thoughts and worries. With help from Master Yoga Teachers our yoga program teach you how to release and balance blocked energies. Through breathing, yoga postures, and meditative states your body opens up to new possibilities. You will be amazed at how much each yoga movement can reveal about your life! Yoga Los Angeles will help people to rejuvenate themselves.

I'm an Ayurvedic practitioner, yoga teacher, editor of LA YOGA Ayurveda and Health and member of the board of directors of the National Ayurvedic Medical Association and the California Assocition of Ayurvedic Medicine. I first discovered Ayurveda in 1993, when I read Deepak Chopra's Perfect Health. From the moment I read it, I knew I had found the system of medicine that made the most sense. I feel that Ayurveda is a wisdom tradition that provides the information to allow us to live a life in tune with nature.

What is Ayurvedic Medicine?

Ayurveda is an ancient medical science from India, considered by many worldwide to be the original medical science, and literally means "science of life." It's diagnosis and evaluation methods are unique and comprehensive. Based upon findings, our Ayurvedic Practitioner creates a synergistic healing plan that may include herbal supplements, dietary and lifestyle recommendations, yoga or other exercise, massage therapy and meditation techniques.

Ayurveda acknowledges that beneficial daily habits are different for each person, because each person is a unique combination of the 3 fundamental biological principles, which are called "doshas": Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Everybody has all 3 energies - although people experience each of them to a lesser or greater degree.
