- What does Arvoya mean?
- Arvoya is a play on the words "Our Voyage," honoring the idea that the journey to health is something we share. It reflects a collaborative approach to well-being and the reminder that you are not alone on this path.
- What should I expect from a session?
- Sessions run 60–90 minutes depending on where we are in the voyage. We talk about your body, your patterns, what’s shifting and what isn’t. I ask questions, listen deeply, and share observations grounded in Ayurvedic science, herbalism, and yogic wisdom. Some sessions involve hands-on practices we do together. Others are entirely conversation. The work is about awareness as much as action.
- Do I have to follow an Ayurvedic diet?
- No. Ayurveda is a way of understanding what your body is asking for right now, not a fixed set of rules. We start from where you are, what you actually eat, and what your digestion is telling us. The shifts are gradual, particular to you, and made with your life in mind.
- Do I need a yoga practice to work with you?
- No. Yoga shows up differently for each person. For someone with a strong asana background, we may go deeper into pranayama, meditation, or philosophy. For someone brand new, we might begin with five minutes of breath in the morning. The point is the practice meeting you where you are.
- Who are your teachers?
- These are some of the most influential and I hope this list will forever grow: Dr. Vasant Lad, Jiwan Shakti (Dr. Genceli), Dr. Dhaval Dhru, Dr. Kaleb Lund, Dr. Sheila Kingsbury, Dr. Eric Yarnell, Dancing Crow (Dr. Deborah Frances), Dr. Brigid Lunder, Dr. Bill Dean, Dr. Pranav Lad, Dr. Jenn Dazey, Dr. Robert Svoboda, Crystal Hamby, Keith Topar, Caitlin Gilson, Sneha Raichada, Rosemary Gladstar, Karren Abrams, Shannon Kelly, my mother, my father.
