I know what it’s like to question your capacity to love your child. I was scared to become a mother because I didn’t want to repeat what was done to me. I worked hard—therapy, books, self-love practices—doing all the “right” things to prepare.
Then, 25 years after my son was born, I found out I was pregnant with a girl. Later, I learned she would be autistic. Suddenly, all the ache I’d tried to soothe was louder than ever.
I realized I’d been self-medicating with shallow self-love and intellectual understanding—falling prey to the emotional and spiritual bypassing so many of us do. The deeper wounds were still unaddressed, and I felt more lost than ever.
I went from elated to scared in all of three seconds—and honestly, scared doesn’t even cut it. I knew how empty I was inside. How was I going to love her when I never truly felt loved myself? When I struggled to embody love at all?
I believed self-love was a prerequisite for loving my child well.
On my way home from the clinic, through tears and screams, I made a decision: I would figure it out. I would love her well, and in doing so, I’d reach back and love my son better.
Along the way, I realized I didn’t need more surface-level self-love practices. What’s the use of self-love when love feels foreign—and the self I became was shaped by survival?
For a long time, I stayed at the surface. But yoga teaches us to honor the layers—body, breath, mind, heart, spirit. To truly heal, I had to go deeper. I had to interrogate my beliefs about love, dismantle the old narratives, and craft a love ethic I could actually live by.
It took emotional literacy. Somatic awareness. Spiritual honesty. And letting my children show me what love could look like.
So when I think about what I can offer you now, I bring what I’ve lived: my experience, my belief in embodiment as a lifestyle, and my ability to hold space in ways others might not.
If my story resonates, then you already know—I truly understand.
With humility and open arms, I invite you to Sādhanā with me.

What Is Sādhanā?

Sādhanā is a quiet revolution. A commitment to inner return.

Rooted in yogic wisdom and trauma-aware care, this practice is where we gather—weekly or monthly—to soften into ourselves. Not to fix. Not to transcend. But to remember.

A typical session includes:

  • Grounding and breathwork

  • Guided reflection through the Koshas (body, breath, mind, heart, and spirit)

  • Somatic inquiry or gentle ritual

  • Meditative stillness

  • Optional community sharing in a safe space

Who This Is For

  • You’ve tried self-love but it never felt rooted

  • You’re a trauma survivor or cycle-breaker on a spiritual path

  • You crave a slower, more sacred relationship with yourself

  • You want guidance that doesn’t bypass or shame

  • You’re done performing “healing” and ready to embody truth

If this is you, you belong here.
