"As an insatiably curious human, I have spent the bulk of my life learning.  Exploring the conventional and unconventional aspects of healing & relationships.  Frustration grew over the 2 decades as a Physical Therapist as I experienced and witnessed the gaps in the quality of healthcare in the western medical model.  The question “How did people heal before doctors and specialists?“ plagued my mind. Born and raised in the East Indian culture, a holistic viewpoint made sense to me. As I dug deeper, I resonated with the practices and philosophies of the East, and especially, the Elemental Wisdom in Nature: Fire, Earth, Air and Water. 

I am a guide to the innate healing process within, not the Healer herself.  I have come to know and trust that Spirit and Nature heal.

Being a geeky scientist and spiritual seeker, I find great satisfaction in modern day Neuroscience linking healing with a holistic Mind, Body, Spirit, Emotion approach.  The wise Sages, Gurus, Masters and Medicine People knew the value of this interconnectedness ages ago.  Volumes of books and teachings exist, yet the pitfall was putting it into actual, real-life practice. I felt an urge to apply and integrate these teachings into ordinary, everyday relationships with of work, family, intimate partners, friends, and so on.  I had no idea what this would lead to...

Plenty of pain, disappointments, loss and anger have blessed my life.  These were and are some of my best teachers. They taught me surrender, Self-love and Self-trust. There were some hard times! 

Despite my pleas, I was not exempt from doing ”the work." I had to face the questions that hurt me the most “What will people say? What will people think?” Shakily and consistently, I turned inward. I needed help to undo the knots.  I had a lot to learn about navigating the waves of conditioned thoughts, feelings and emotions…urgghhh. 

Is this what my Dad meant when he said, “Life is such"?

With determination, courage and plenty of "oh @#!$" moments along the way, I was humbled by the opportunities, growth and eventual transformations that occurred.  It's through grit, the combination of passion and perseverance, that I gained wisdom and experience from my pain and suffering. 

During these periods of self-inquiry, I began to realize that there was this soft, soothing feeling deep inside me, a benevolent guiding energy. Even when I'd ignore, hide from or flat out refuse it,  it was still there. Eventually, I came to identify it as "my Truth."

As the wise ones said, "the Truth remains the Truth."  I was intrigued and frightened by this feeling.  It’s always been there and it will always be there. hmmm.... While I needed guidance to find mySelf after losing myself along the way,  I am now deeply committed to the most treasured relationships in my life -the relationship with mySELF and my Truth. The Essence of Truth that I feel deep inside is my SatyaRasa. You have it too. 

Following my Truth is my medicine practice. My soul asked for a way to help people and make an impact in this world. I am compelled to share the ways I built a relationship with mySelf and my Truth to help others live into their potential.

A while ago during morning tea, this message quietly and simply arrived. “I am the medicine." It took years for that to be understood and integrated. So, here I am…determined and sometimes uncertain. With grit, I am willing to bring the medicine that has helped me the most:  Conversations, connections, nature, travel, bodywork, energy work, breathwork, movement practices, sound healing, journaling and most importantly self-inquiry. 

SatyaRasa Offerings is my way of honoring the gift of Truth that has woken up inside me and I lovingly offer it to you. 

I share perspective, guidance, reflection and unconditional love.

Retreats, workshops, private sessions (in-person and on-line), Blogs, Instagram, Facebook, on a forest trail or on the beach....is where I'll be. This is who I am.

Join me! Let's co-create a life aligned with Truth.
Feel the Essence of Truth bless your life beyond imagination.  Come meet your own SatyaRasa. 

Take Care
Love,
Sonia
