Talya Lutzker
Ayurveda Practitioner and Coach
Your kitchen is the roost of your home; digestion is the root of your health. That’s at the core of Ayurveda’s 5000 year-old teachings, and why the way you nurture yourself is such a big deal. I’m committed to helping you treasure and safeguard yourself, no matter what kind of diet or lifestyle you keep. And after my own experience of suffering physically and emotionally, I believe in Ayurveda wholeheartedly.
Here’s why…
Almost 20 years ago, despite a strong interest in yoga, health and exercise, I found myself lost, depressed, overweight and deeply out of balance.
I discovered Ayurveda – India’s holistic health care system and sister science to yoga – when I became a yoga teacher in 2001.
But it didn’t really hit home until I was desperate for a natural solution to how messed up I was and how awful I felt.
When I was at my yoga teacher training, I broke out in an angry, itchy rash that covered giant patches of my body. It arrived completely out of the blue, I didn’t see it coming, and I was scared.
Not only was I racked with inflammation and scratching bouts that routinely left me bleeding for months, I received a serious autoimmune diagnosis as the psoriasis spread across my body.
I lived with chronic digestive issues, hormone imbalance and emotional instability. I found Ayurveda because I was on an urgent mission to find natural means that would heal me. I knew there was something beyond the western medical route that would only offer pharmaceutical drugs as a solution. When I met my Ayurvedic practitioner, I felt seen to my core. When she explained my Ayurvedic body type to me, so many things I’d been through and experienced suddenly made sense. I no longer felt like there was so much wrong with me. And although I was out of balance physically, I felt confident that Ayurveda – a simple, common sense system I could learn, understand and apply – would legitimately support me.
In the first few months, I experienced things like this:
- I lost weight without dieting – the extra 15 pounds I’d carried for 10+ years seemed to melt away in just weeks of eating Ayurvedically and following my practitioner’s advice
- I learned how to eat right for my body’s needs and prepare simple, wholesome food that tasted delicious – I never felt deprived
- I felt love and connection with myself in a way I never had before – just through the practice of daily self-care
- I had energy for life again – I experienced joy, laughter and passion for the first time in a long time
Within 6 short months, I felt absolutely incredible. Over 85% of the psoriasis cleared up and I felt more vibrant, joyful, and energized than ever before.
I felt confident in my body for the first time in my life.
And that’s when I realized my purpose.
I know there are so many people who struggle with chronic inflammation, digestive issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, hormone imbalance and all the things I went through myself And my experience with Ayurveda showed me how possible it is to feel joyful, enthusiastic and radiant.
I found my passion through practicing this medicine, and I’ve made it my mission to share the life-changing power of Ayurveda with people like you who are ready to feel 100% themselves again: empowered, energetic and radiant naturally.
Now this is where I come in to help!
