“Working with Maya has been powerful and meaningful for me as I learn to embrace my true self. Maya and I have been working on how to feel my feelings in my body not just think about them in my mind. Working with Maya has been a real safe space to talk about my deepest feelings. I have learned to practice interoception and the ability to sense all sensations within my body which has helped me managing big emotions. One of my goals working with Maya was to learn to manage intense emotional outbursts, and I have learned to do this by connecting with my body and recogizing sensations as signals that I need to take some breaths to calm down. I have learned many breath and mediation tools that have helped me regulate my emotions and have more compassion for myself in difficult moments.”

“My goal for 2023 was to implement a healthier nutritional lifestyle. I had stopped drinking alcohol and coffee, but was looking for professional advice. When I started meeting with Maya for Ayurveda, I could tell she cared about her work deeply.  When I experienced a death in the family she showed me how to bring back the balance I needed in a supported whole body approach as I walked through grief alcohol free. Maya is a knowledgeable, compassionate professional.”

"Maya has been a phenomenal presence in my life, both personally and professionally. As the founder of a global movement to support the mental health and wellness of educators, I’ve recognized first hand that we cannot pour from an empty cup. Maya has helped support me in making realizations and reflections about practices in my own life, while simultaneously offering opportunities to explore and grow in brand new ways. She truly has helped me to blossom and for that I am forever grateful."

“My favorite thing about Maya’s classes is that she manages to bring a sense of peace and calmness to the room while also inspiring you with her energy and presence at the same time. Her teaching style is very approachable for various skills levels and I always came away from class with some new insight or more knowledge to apply to my practice.”
