About The Massage Therapist (Mumbai, India)

Working with women since 2003

• Ayurvedic Yoga Massage training in 2003.
   

• 3 month Pranic Hatha Yoga Teacher's training with Swami Yogananda Saraswati in 2006.
   

• 7 month Yoga teachers training from The Yoga Institute, Santacruz E in 2007.

I have been a student of yoga with Swami Yogananda Saraswati.  and various Iyengar Yoga teachers for several years.

I completed my Reiki level 1, practiced several Osho meditations and have taken part in some Art of living courses. Vipassana has been a strong influence in my life and work. All spiritual practices help us get back to our natural selves. To get back to the natural self, nothing more needs to be added but many many things need to drop...negativities, bad habits, tensions, stresses, fixed and strong opinions and prejudices about other and ourselves and much much more....: )

Being comfortable and accepting of your body with its shape, size, colour and all those other things which contribute towards beauty and health in our eyes is the first step. Massage goes a long way in creating this acceptance and love for your own body. Each person is unique and therefore to have a fixed idea of what is perfect does not work. In fact it is these ideas and notions of what is right, good and beautiful that are responsible for most of the damage and imbalances in our bodies.

My struggle to find a job which is interesting and contributes to my own as well as other peoples wellbeing ended once I discovered massage and yoga. Massage is I must say not only a therapy for my clients but for me as well.
