Embody Bliss

My path has been a tapestry woven and unwoven through a lifetime of self-reflection, self-actualization, and extensive training in the Yoga, Ayurvedic, and Hindu traditions.

I was born legally blind and from birth I assumed the identity handed to me by others. It was an identity that ran deeper than the label of blind or disabled, I quickly realized that I was different in many ways.

I was clairvoyant and as an infant and young child, I did not understand the gift that had been bestowed upon me. I couldn’t see the way others could, but I could see things that others could not.

Some of my earliest memories are of times when I communicated with spirit as an infant in my crib and throughout my childhood.

I could feel the beauty and magic of the world in my body and my life’s work has been dedicated to helping others find this beauty and magic within themselves.Over time, society tuned into my differences, and I found that I needed to become demure to fit in and preserve myself.

I silenced my laugh, softened my footsteps, and tried to become the good, invisible girl that the world expected me to be.

Thankfully, at the age of 12, my mobility teacher introduced me to yoga as a tool to compensate for my low vision and help me to develop my intuition and sensory perception.

This was the first of many signposts guiding me throughout my life.I felt a deep calling to India and although I did not know it at the time, the ancient traditions, and teachings of Hinduism.
