I was born and brought up in India in a traditional household with ancient Ayurvedic wisdom permeating every part of my family’s life. Time in nature has always been a stronghold in my life, and I also learned yoga at the age of five.

My love for traditional, homemade food and self-care rituals led me to spend a lot of time in the kitchen.

I knew there must be another way.

The inherent wisdom that I had acquired in my childhood was reawakened and I started supporting my body with the natural remedies and diet while I pursued a deeper healing for my trauma. I learnt to eat what worked for my body and practiced what I could sustain as a lifestyle. The more I ate real foods prepared in ways that supported my individual body constitution, the more I progressed towards naturally healing. And the more I wanted to share it with others around me!

In 2012, I started offering workshops and traditional cooking lessons on how to use food as medicine.

My healing journey has been of spiritual growth and self-compassion complemented by many years of research and Ayurvedic practices. My body-mind transformation prepared me to welcome a wonderful person into my life, first as a friend, and then as my husband, when I got married again in 2015. He has been instrumental in supporting me to quit my corporate job and go back to school to study nutrition. I graduated from the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition in 2018, and today I am following my passion and practicing what I love doing fulltime.

Even in my free time, you will find me in the kitchen creating a new recipe, walking my dog outside, or staying up-to-date on cutting edge research to further balancing our mind, body and spirit through nutrition and lifestyle.
