BRIDGETTE OCHOA
AYURVEDIC PRACTITIONER
In 2017, I graduated from the University of St Augustine with a Masters Degree in Occupational Therapy. After working as a clinician for 5 years, I quickly discovered some glaring pitfalls in western medicine.
I found myself burnt out and jaded by the system and was thumbing through random books at a bookstore while sitting on the floor. A book on Ayurveda fell into my lap.
For the next 2-3 years, I embarked on a personal and professional journey, solo traveling the world, teaching Yoga and working as a cook in spiritual kitchens at various retreat centers, and immersing myself in the profound wisdom of Ayurveda. It was a path of self-discovery and growth, culminating in the completion of a 3-year Ayurveda Practitioner educational program through the esteemed Belly Mind Institute with Eleni Tsikrikas.
My driving force was a near death experience that happened in 2019 which changed my life. That pivotal moment propelled me to never settle for anything less than the best. Ayurveda is the best, I was settling in a comfortable career that was familiar to me before.
I find pure joy in unraveling the intricate web of disease, pinpointing the root causes for each person at this specific point in their life’s journey. Nothing fuels me more than witnessing clients embrace their true selves, empowering them to find lifelong balance in their mind and body.
Deep, authentic relationships and holistic treatments are the cornerstone of my practice. I believe that true healing flourishes within a sacred space of trust, understanding and knowing someone inside and out. My approach is very comprehensive. Everything has to do with everything. That is why we do not exclude the mind from the body in disease. Ayurveda is a holistic practice that encompasses both diet and lifestyle changes customized to the person. That is why it works, nothing is left out. Authentic healing comes from within and that is best achieved in a 1:1 environment.
