MY PHILOSOPHY
My Philosophy
My approach to wellness is built upon four foundational principles that connect inner health with outer radiance. I believe true beauty is a reflection of internal balance, optimal digestion, and mindful living tailored to your unique self.
Principle 1: Digestion is the Root of Radiance
"We aren't only what we eat, but what we digest and absorb."
One of the most effective ways to look and feel beautiful is to optimize your digestion. We focus on leveraging powerful, natural tools:
- Proper food combining
- Implementing healing foods and nourishing tonics
- Physical and emotional detoxification
When your digestive system functions at its peak, your body efficiently absorbs vital, beautifying minerals and nutrients. Toxins are flushed out more effectively, enabling deep rejuvenation at a cellular level. The result is transformative: the body heals, the skin glows, and the mind achieves clarity.
Principle 2: Your Biology is Unique
"What might be fantastically therapeutic for your friend may not necessarily suit you."
I draw inspiration from the 5,000-year-old science of Ayurveda. The term Ayurveda translates to the "Science of Life" (Aayus meaning life, Veda meaning knowledge). Explore the fundamentals of Ayurvedic living here.
According to Ayurvedic principles, each of us possesses a unique biological blueprint. We are comprised of three distinct "body types"—known as Doshas—which shape our specific physical and personality characteristics.
The Three Doshas:
| Dosha | Elements | Qualities |
|---|---|---|
| 💨 Vata | Air + Ether | Light, movement, creative |
| 🔥 Pitta | Fire + Water | Intense, driven, metabolic |
| 🌳 Kapha | Earth + Water | Stable, grounded, nurturing |
We each have varying proportions of these doshas, usually one or two in dominance.
Ayurveda asserts that your ideal diet (what, how, and when you eat), lifestyle choices, and beauty routine should be specific to your unique body type for optimal digestion and vitality. Ayurveda also considers external factors like the time of day, season, and climate when developing a personalised Ayurvedic nutrition and lifestyle plan.
Principle 3: The Mind-Body Synergy
"There is a deep mind-body synergy."
The mind and body are profoundly interconnected. Your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and attitudes can either positively or negatively affect your biological functioning. In the same vein, your diet and exercise routine directly impact your mental well-being and emotional state. I address the whole self to foster balance.
Principle 4: The Face Reveals the Internal Story
"The face is a great indicator of what's going on inside the body."
I utilize facial analysis as a diagnostic tool. By studying skin conditions, texture changes, or moisture levels, we can pinpoint internal imbalances. Because specific areas of the face correspond to mineral deficiencies and internal organs, disharmony within an internal system often manifests visibly in the related facial zone.
By addressing the root cause within the body, we facilitate lasting clarity and a natural glow.
