Nimbah Yoga

Yoga Teacher-Trainer

Nimbah निम्ब is the Sanskrit word for the neem tree, which symbolizes "good health". It is also referred to as the "life-giving tree".A tree represents the connection between all aspects of life on earth and in the yoga tradition, Vrksasana or tree-pose represents the nature.This pose always reminds me to stay grounded, strong, open and free.

My background is rooted in alternative therapy. I hold a degree in addiction counseling and throughout the years I have worked as a harm reduction specialist, a chef, an ear acupuncture and cupping practitioner, an Ayurveda massage therapist, sound healer, reiki healer, meditation guide and an artist. Over the many years, I have collected many titles, and none of them really matter. I like to meld all my experiences and studies together and help you the best way possible. The intention is the keyword in healing whether it is yoga, reiki or counseling. Read more
