Healthy Living by V began in 2013 as a personal health and wellness blog. Incorporating the principles of Yoga and Ayurveda was a natural progression through my studies and development as a teacher. As I’ve continued to work with those interested in living a healthier, happier quality of life, projects to reach more and more … Continue reading Exciting New Things to Come…

Life Coaching with V
Navigating through life has its challenges along with seemingly endless obstacles but more important than anything is that you don’t have to go through it alone. If you find yourself feeling a bit stuck, in need of some guidance, or just interested in some redirection, consider reaching out and let’s explore it together.

Your Emotions Are Not The Enemy
We do our best as we go through life. We're taught along the way either directly or indirectly how to manage our daily stress, major life events, and various degrees of trauma. At some point we may come to realize that the habits we've developed over time are no longer as useful as they once … Continue reading Your Emotions Are Not The Enemy
The Healing Journey
There are many different ways to approach one's journey towards healing and yet not all methods are a great fit for everyone. Many students who begin working with me towards their own path originally come to my classes to learn something interesting, hopefully fun and physical with little interest--at least in the beginning--of going any … Continue reading The Healing Journey
Discovering Joy through Zoom
Every day, as we all are, I am doing my very best and sometimes that in and of itself can feel quite overwhelming. From moment to moment the choices my husband and I have made range from having heated debates with strangers and friends, to spending quiet, quality time at home completely unplugged, to just … Continue reading Discovering Joy through Zoom

I Am Light
When we learn to trust ourselves and our journey we are able to look beyond that which we are so quick to judge. We become brave enough—with practice—to stop falling victim to the shadows, the darkness, the doubt, the anger, the fear that lies within. With courage we use our breath to steady our heart … Continue reading I Am Light
This is My Body
When I arrive at the top of my mat I am granted a moment of self-reflection. It is here that I can quiet the outside world and begin to focus on what I am bringing to my practice--my body, my breath, and my mind just as they are. It is also here that one can … Continue reading This is My Body
