Vedic Astrology by Somya Devi

SOMYA 8 WEB

I experienced the nourishing and revitalizing power of Mother Nature and her healing energies when I moved to Kauai just after graduating college at Brown. Studying life, nature and astrology there, I found a new rhythm of living and an orientation towards holistic health, physical, mental and emotional clarity.

Soon after, I met Mata Amrtanandamayi (AKA Amma, “the hugging saint”) from India, whose love and guidance on meditation, daily practice, and service inspires me greatly. I’ve been blessed to travel with her in service and sadhana all over the world.

In 2007 I began my training in Ayurvedic Body Therapy at the California College of Ayurveda, and continued on to massage certification the next year, which included many different modalities. Since then I’ve had the opportunity to study and offer healing services at many healing sanctuaries throughout the world, including in Kauai, Ecuador, Harbin Hot Springs, and at ashrams, spas and clinics in California and India.

My holistic health approach has a foundation in Ayurveda and yoga, and I became a certified Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor through the Kerala Ayurveda Academy, under Dr. Jayarajan Kodikannath. I was also blessed to study Ayurveda with Dr. Vasant Lad.

In 2012 was certified in Vedic Astrology through the American Academy of Vedic Art & Science, a school taught by Sam Geppi and blessed by my satguru, Amma. I have studied Jyotish with Steven Highburger since 2017 in the tradition of Hart deFouw and K.L. Mantri.

I currently live and work in Western Massachusetts.
