For the major portion of her life Asha has been a spiritual seeker and on a spiritual journey, studying with world class teachers.
Her first experience and awakening was as a student under Yogi Amrit Desai, the founder of the Kripalu Yoga Center. She later trained with him to become a teacher. To deepen her understanding of spirituality, she studied with the Self Realization Fellowship founded by Paramahansa Yogananda and with the Arcane School based on the work of Alice A. Bailey and the Tibetan, Djwhal Khul.
In 2000, she graduated from the Barbara Brennan School of Healing, a four-year intensive program of study, which includes healing techniques and intensive psychological work, and did a year of graduate studies. Dr. Brennan is a pioneer in energy consciousness and a former NASA physicist. Her books, Hands of Light, and Light Emerging are classics in the field of energy work and complementary medicine.
In 2006, she graduated from A Society of Souls, a three-year program of Integrated Kabbalistic Healing taught by (Jinen) Jason Shulman, a spiritual teacher in the kabbalistic and Buddhist traditions. He is the author of Kabbalistic Healing: A Path to an Awakened Soul and The Instruction Manual for Receiving God. This study is still a deeper level of wholeness. She continued with all the Advanced Studies and Healings at ASOS, including Impersonal Movement I and II, Work of Return and the Magi Process. All these studies continued a deeper unfolding and transformational healing process within her and within her practice.
Her skill at working with veterans led her to continue her understanding of the effects of trauma. In 2009 she began studies in energy work with Peter Levine's Somatic Experiencing, a renowned three year program for transforming the effects of PTSD.
Prior to this Asha was a certified travel counselor (CTC) for 20 years, a ‘guide’ to the external world. Now she is a guide of the inner worlds!
Her belief is self-healing is one of the most rewarding things that can be done for yourself, your family and the world. You make the decision to participate in Life consciously. The journey of awakening is a lifelong endeavor of wonder and healing. This healing work takes years of training and understanding. It is not only techniques and skills it requires a deep level of connection, commitment and life experience. The healer becomes her work.
