Launch of Vidya Healing Arts

Hi Family and Friends,

I hope this message finds you well.

I’m so excited (and nervous!) to announce the launch of Vidya Healing Arts. Vidya Healing Arts is the formal name for my yoga, Reiki, essential oil, and ecotherapy practice. As you might know, over the past couple of years, I have become more devoted to the practice of yoga and even more so committed to the practice of healing through embodiment.

In addition to working as an environmental advocate, I am also a yoga instructor teaching alignment-based Hatha, yin yoga, and restorative yoga, and I also practice Reiki, use essential oils as a form of plant medicine, and lead guided hikes + yoga classes throughout the Bay Area. My dream is to make all of these healing modalities much more accessible and affordable to all who are drawn to it…and as time goes on, to add new practicioners and new healing arts to Vidya.

Now in my early 30s, I firmly believe something a teacher once said to me, “to heal the nervous system is to heal the world.” Everything that Vidya Healing Arts offers and will offer is to the purpose of helping the individual heal in order for the collective to heal.

Vidya means “knowledge of the soul, spiritual knowledge, and/or seeing with clear perception, with clarity.” In the wild, uncertain and frankly, traumatic, times we’re living in, I find myself needing to re-center, ground, and find a sense of clarity and clear perception so much more frequently. Maybe you feel the same. If you feel drawn, please join me on this journey of finding Vidya - of finding and discovering our true selves, the deeply-held intuitive wisdom of our bodies, and the clarity and direction we need to get through these times.

I’m so excited to start this journey. Please feel free to always reach out to me with comments, questions, ideas, and thoughts.

Sending you peace, ease and joy,

Amy
