He/She holds the ability to bring harmony to the living energy systems of the individual human, their community, animals, plants and the greater world. These methods of healing and problem-solving through sensitivity to energy and the ability to balance it are important.

The practice calls us to awaken our inherent nature. It is the fundamental principles of almost all healing and spiritual traditions. However it is not a faith, but a constantly evolving wisdom tradition in which we learn purely from our own, individual and collective, personal experience.

Nor is it a religion and it is dogma-free, indeed it supports any existing spiritual practice a person may already hold. The practitioner follows practices that nourish the sacred in the Self and the world and comes to see, know and work with all energy as sacred.

This holistic pattern is thoroughly rooted in the Spiritual energy of the land. There is a deep honoring of the lineage of your land, the archetypes, mythology and sacred sites that hold our tradition. Alongside native,or indigenous practices have been incorporated that many others draw from these common practices come through all worldwide traditions.

Outstanding among these traditions supporting the pathway of the heart, is the ancient wisdom teachings, with cutting edge breakthrough techniques for Energetic-Spiritual, Psycho-Emotional and Physical emergence.

It is a path of holistic development and evolution, a path of remembering who we truly are in our essence and a path of finding the strength to live daily from that place of authenticity.

The pathway of the heart brings the practitioner deep into Nature and into the Self at the same time, to learn to travel to the world of their Spirit, beyond ordinary time and space, to retrieve healing, guidance and vision.

This path is one of integrity allowing the practitioner to emerge as an empowered, autonomous truth seeker who is free to touch and express the ecstatic essence of Life. The pathway to the heart is built upon our innate understanding, literally “retrieving, through the energy of compassion”.

The word for “healing” is the same as the word for “retrieval” and the training supports self-healing and return to wholeness through our recovery of essential parts of ourselves that have been damaged, hidden or lost..

The process takes us from “victim” to “warrior”- a “warrior of the heart” who is testimony to the courage to heal and who shines with the luminosity of one who lives from their heart.

In the world traditions, there is no difference between the “heart” and the “soul”, a vision that a sacred, soulful life is realized through compassion and love.

The pathway to the heart assists us to incorporate Healing ways of self-care and Connection to the energies of the natural world, into a modern daily life with ease and simplicity.

When we do this, our entire day becomes informed by a strong, positive intent which opens our heart and allows us to participate in and observe life, with greater meaning.

We become more attuned to ourselves as Body-Mind-Spirit organisms and , we witness more and more the Energetic-Spiritual energy in all that is material.

Our perception leads us inward and outward shifting to a new insightful focus, revealing more the beauty and dimensions of the Self and Creation.

Creating Inspired Moments

“I decided that it was not wisdom that enabled poets to write their poetry, but a kind of instinct or inspiration, such as you find in seers and prophets who deliver all their sublime messages without knowing in the least what they mean.” ~Socrates

Scientists estimate that, on average, we have 60,000 thoughts every day. The majority of these thoughts are repetitive thoughts that we’ve had countless times before. But once in a while, a distinctive moment occurs in which an original or even exceptional thought crosses our mind. We have an idea or a stroke of insight that opens us to new possibilities and transformation.
The word inspiration comes from the Latin for “the creative breath of the divine,” and according to the Bible, inspiration is an act of grace or a blessing. When we are touched by inspiration, we feel uplifted, energized, and liberated. It is only natural that we would want to open ourselves to having more and more inspired moments in our lives, yet many of us think of inspiration as a flash of lightning that strikes only rarely . . . or as a muse that visits us on an unknowable timetable that is beyond our control. In reality, inspiration is both an act of grace and a process that we can cultivate. The Oxford Dictionary defines inspiration as “the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative.” With a little bit of effort, we can create a process that gets our ideas flowing and leads to inspired thoughts.
Here are a few suggestions to help you develop your own inspiration process:

Cultivate awareness. Consider the last few times you felt inspired and notice any commonalities in your experiences. Were you walking in nature or doing a physical task such as washing dishes or vacuuming when an idea hit? Had you taken time to meditate or do nothing at all? Start keeping a list of what helps you feel creative and start incorporating these insights whenever you need inspiration.
Keep a journal. You can use the creative process from Julia Cameron’s popular book The Artist’s Way. Each morning as soon as you wake up, write three pages in your journal, preferably using a pen or pencil rather than a computer. You are not writing a masterpiece at this point. Just write spontaneously, putting whatever comes into your head onto the page. This is an opportunity to allow your ideas to flow freely without limitations. It’s also a kind of “brain dump” that allows you to release all the fearful, repetitive, or angst-ridden thoughts that cycle through your mind and drain your energy. This exercise can provide clarity and open up the doors for inspiration.
Immerse yourself in inspiring environments and activities every day. Observe what inspires you and incorporate it into your day. If listening to uplifting music, being in nature, going for a jog, or playing with your dog inspires or uplifts you, make time for this activity in your day. Find what works for you and make it a part of your inspiration recipe.
“Steal” ideas. Stealing an idea to create something new is very different from copying someone else’s original idea. It means to ponder something great or useful that already exists and make it your own by improving on it, creating a totally different application for it, or reinventing it.
Be gentle. When original ideas come to you, treat them like fledglings that need to be nurtured and encouraged rather than rejected or dismissed. Be gentle with your ideas and give each one a fair chance to develop wings and eventually fly.
Allow others to help. There are many inspirational books, speakers, mentors, and teachers that can encourage us to tap into our own well of creativity. Seek out opportunities for others to inspire and dazzle you with their wisdom, knowledge, know-how, expertise, and experience.

As unique beings, we get inspired in diverse ways and by different means. Therefore, it is important that we take the time to explore and create our own process that fits our individual needs and nourishes our mind, body, and spirit.

“Our moments of inspiration are not lost though we have no particular poem to show for them; for those experiences have left an indelible impression, and we are ever and anon reminded of them.” ~Henry David Thoreau

More on Saraswatti

Saraswatti continued to explore a wide variety of healing traditions, searching for alternatives to the prevailing medical model that she had found extremely disappointing and limiting since her earliest days in dealing with physicians. Saraswatti says “At times I was deeply demoralized that the notion of human beings as fully conscious, spiritually aware creations had been totally lost from the medical model of life and health.”

Saraswatti has studied the ancient wisdom traditions of India, Tibet, and China, encouraged by the way in which they combined the concept of body, mind, and spirit into a definition of a health as something more than just the absence of disease, but as a state of well-being and vitality. Saraswatti's first exposure to an Ayurvedic physician was to have a profound impact on her personal life and career.When Saraswatti first met Dr. David Simon board certified neurologist and ayurvedic physician. She describes meeting this gentle vaidya (Ayurvedic doctor), whose kind-hearted, open nature seemed to inspire the trust of his patients, who were then able to share their deepest concerns and get the most benefit from their visit. Saraswatti was deeply struck by how the vaidya’s own presence seemed to be the most powerful aspect of his therapy. “More than an expert on health, David seemed to be a living representative of a healthy person, balanced in body, mind, and spirit.

In this man, I saw the possibility that a physician could be more than a technical master of pathology – a doctor could guide his patients to health through his actions, words, and being,” Saraswatti said.

Deeply drawn to the wisdom of Ayurveda,Saraswatti

ultimately became a certified consultant in this 5,000-year-old healing system, including its sister science, yoga. Throughout her career, she focused on integrating the theory and practice of these ancient healing sciences with the newer developments of modern Western medicine. She followed David’s teachings as he forged a model of health that integrates the multiple dimensions of a human being ― environmental, physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual.

Saraswatti said "David expanded people’s understanding of the true meaning of health, helping thousands of people throughout the world experience the healing benefits of Ayurveda, meditation, and yoga." Recognized as a leading authority in the effective and appropriate use of mind-body medicine practices, Dr. Simon's endeavors resulted in the training of thousands of physicians, nurses, and health care providers. One of the first recipients of a National Institute of Health grant to study mind-body medical approaches to improving health care, David helped bring integrated mind-body medical programs to medical institutions, health centers, educational institutions, and health resorts throughout the world.

Saraswatti trained under Dr. Simon- Dr. Frawley and Dr. Dr. Suhas in Ayurveda and in mind body and spirit by many Wise and Wonderful individuals.

Saraswatti said “I believe we are all by nature, self healing organisms and that practice calls us to do so for ourselves. The level of connection and sacredness we can experience when we do this, for me can only be called Spiritual. I am made to feel safe –As Life asks me to learn only from my own experience while it hands me the means to realize my destiny. When I sit with others from many cultures, despite us often not sharing a common spoken language, our conversations are full and dynamic. Such is the language of our hearts. As a Holistic Therapist for many years, I found that it provided me with a gorgeous term not just for all of the therapies I practiced but also my passion for nature, creativity and fun. I realized that as an adult I was missing ‘play’ and the sheer exuberant life availed to me. As I sat in circle for the first time I had a huge sense of being HOME. I had a map for life – not a rigid or ruled one, nor one with hierarchies but a way that embraced my own empowerment, who I am and what I stand for. The way of the heart-my heart.

In these amazing ancient healing traditions are a way of connecting with the spirits of nature and embracing the power of the natural world. ceremony, a sacred dance and journey to places of power in nature are all essential aspects of healing.

As one of the oldest forms of medicine, healing has been used as ‘traditional’ medicine around the world. It uses sound, sacred plants, sacred movement and other methods to access information to facilitate healing and balancing of the body.

Nature has her own way of clearing our heads, by taking in the earth under our feet, the trees rustling in the wind and supporting our backs to lean on; the lullaby of the ocean; the vastness of the blue sky to open our thinking; the winds to clear out our daily thoughts. I know -To know the unknowable is the impossible, yet irresistible task of a life time.

Our natural state is one of perfect health, ease and peace. It is my belief that an integrated approach to the body that addresses body, mind, and spirit is a more effective way to bring about true healing. Healing,- as I define it, means a return to wholeness and to the highest and clearest expression of who we can become.

Tension, imbalance, stress and illness in the body often have psychological, emotional, and spiritual origins. Our physical body is only half the story. Each of us also has an energy body (some call it the Aura) that is the energetic template of the physical body. Physical illness begins here before manifesting in the body. In addition, it holds all of our memory, history, and programming, past trauma, thought/behavior patterns, and unresolved issues. It also contains our ultimate life purpose and direction.

It is possible, with energetic healing techniques to begin to address our health and well-being in a more holistic way. These powerful modalities work with the psyche and spirit. They help to clear the negative, toxic, and ‘stuck’ energies. They facilitate release of habituated beliefs and patterns that may no longer be appropriate they can aid in anything from addiction, poor self-esteem, fatigue, sleep disorders, improved relationships, and manifestation of goals, career, and life direction.

It may be that you are simply looking to de-stress, de-compress, and work on releasing sore muscles and tensions.

The goal of our work together is to help restore balance and flow in the body and its energy systems. In this state of greater clarity and equanimity, becomes possible to move toward an improved level of health, an increased sense of energy and purpose, and an improved quality of life.

A consultant seeks wholeness in the reflecting pool -simple, non-nonsense ways about bring ancient modes of soul healing into modern life.

Whenever possible, I take a little quiet time, before a meeting with a client , to offer a silent prayer or to chant as I listen to Snatam. I ask that I am guided to name what is needed to be named in the right way, to understand what was truly going on in the life and the body of the person she was going to help, and "to help myself get out of the way" of the deeper process of healing.

I clear and maintain the right space for healing yearning to help the client, and become healers of the whole person as well as a fixer or a solace from the symptoms: To move towards healing on the level of soul -an opening to the mysteries.

You cannot heal the body without healing the soul." The statement enters the literary record in a dialogue of Plato (Charmides) where the fuller version reads as follows:

“You ought not to attempt to cure the eyes without the head, or the head without the body, so neither ought you to attempt to cure the body without the soul…if the head and body are to be well, you must begin by curing the soul.” One of Saraswatti's favorite pieces of information came when she discovered that

Ayurveda defines a quack as someone who treats the symptoms without knowing the root cause.

In this way, you become more than a consultant of ayurveda. In a sense, you become a catalyst, carrying the power and the insight to operate in the trans personal and spiritual realms where keys to understanding the sources of illness and of healing are to be found.
