“Health is Wealth. Peace of mind is Happiness. Yoga shows the Way.”

-Swami Vishnu-Devananda Saraswati

Sivananda Yoga

The history of yoga goes back to thousands of years in India. At that time, the sages used this divine practice to elevate their soul to be one with the Supreme. Sivananda yoga continues offering this authenticity of Vedic knowledge of yoga in the West since 1959. It is the complete practice of yoga whose primary goal is to allow prana or life force energy to circulate more freely in the subtle body and serve the higher purpose of life; retaining vitality of the physical body is the good byproduct of the practice! The practice is based on five principles – 1) Proper Exercise, 2) Proper Breathing, 3) Proper Relaxation, 4) Proper Diet, and 5) Positive Thinking and Meditation. Rather than just physical exercise like in today’s time, yoga serves a much higher goal of inner peace and connection to divinity. If you want to experience this beautiful practice with different breathing techniques and a short form of YogaNidra, then come and join me every Tuesday and Thursday.

Ayurveda

Ayurveda is one of the world’s oldest systems of holistic medicine being practiced in India, and considered ‘The Mother of all Healing Systems’. The history of this ancient knowledge of health goes back to more than 5000 years, as it was passed down to generations by oral means before that. The practice is based on maintaining a balance between your unique combination of the five elements to preserve health and wellness. The goal is to promote the power of inner health to avoid disease, rather than to fight it; but it also provides promising results with chronic health problems. For thousands of years, Ayurveda provides scientific principles to maintain a perfect balance with the mind and body to promote health, and it is still relevant in today’s modern era. It assists the inner wisdom of health through different alternative routes. 

​”Put your heart, mind and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success.”

An Elevated Healing Experience
"Dhara’s generosity of spirit is what makes her treatments so special. There are very few Reiki or Marma experiences where the results are palpable after the first treatment! Her time, expertise, and deep caring add to the experience. I have come to her for emotional support, as well as physical healing. I would heartily recommend her as she is one in a million, and we are very lucky to have her on Long Island!"

Dhara is a very professional and knowledgeable person.
She made me feel so comfortable.
Her chanting of OM before she starts her massage is a cherry on the cake. The vibrations are very positive in the room. Best Abhanyanga and Shirodhara session that I have ever had.
Would recommend this place!!!"

"I have been taking yoga with Dhara for several months now. Dhara is the real deal. She breaks down the poses so that you know exactly what the proper alignment should be. She manages to give her personal attention to every person in the room. Dhara's strength is that she can teach a class geared toward the beginner as well as the more advanced yogi. I leave each class feeling wonderful not only from the practice but from the pure love and joy that I feel coming through Dhara. I have practiced yoga for many years, and I can say with all sincerity that Dhara's practice and teachings are one of a kind. I am so very happy to have met her and to be on this journey with her.
In addition to yoga, I have had several private Reiki sessions with Dhara. Each one was a profound experience that I simply cannot do justice by putting it into words. Dhara is truly gifted and I am honored to be one of her students."
