ABOUT US

The Founder

NAYKA is a world renowned Tantra dakini and soul healer as she has studied the eastern arts under some of the greatest Tantra instructors in the world. She studied Tantra with Margot Anand and David Deida at the Omega Institute as well as several dakinis in Jaipur, India. Having an interest in the holistic arts from a very young age, she studied massage therapy, reiki, reflexology and Tantra in Boston from 1997-1998. She began studying homeopathy and organic nutrition and how it affects our biochemistry and energy levels through her apprenticeship at Harvard Medical College in 1998 where Dr. Andrew Weil practiced. After a transformational experience receiving a biodynamic massage in Boston, she was introduced to the chakras and immediately desired to incorporate this into her daily practice. She is a graduate of the Julie Motz Energy Medicine seminars at Omega Institute. She is a graduate of the Omega Institute's Shamanic healing seminars, and a graduate of the Danis Bois Method of healing.

In 2000, in pursuit of a career in writing, she was Managing Editor of Nursing Spectrum Magazine. It was during this time that her passion for planning events for women became a top women's Dot Com that landed in the Washington Post, Washington Business Journal and Entrepreneur Magazine. She ran her Dot Com from 2001-2004 while launching a women's online magazine, taking a temporary break from her holistic work. After her Dot Com busted due to online advertising changes, she took a "Soul Sabbatical" to "go find herself." After taking a conference with Andrew Cohen, CEO of What is Enlightenment Magazine ( www.wie.org ) she realized the importance of working directly with those individuals who are "influencers" in the world, people who have direct influence over a large group of people. After hearing many stories of great heartache from broken relationships and life hardships, and believing the Eastern beliefs combine BOTH the physical and emotional concerns of the soul, she created the Nayka Institute for Sacred Sensuality and the Heartache Helper program as a way of offering something proactive and progressive in getting people connected to their physical bodies, their sacred energy, their underlying blueprint and their relationships. Combining holistic care of the body and soul with traditional "coach therapy" while adding modalities such as massage therapy, reiki, Tantra, yoga, energy medicine, aromatherapy, creativity exercises and integrative breath work, she believes that the soul has the capacity to heal the body and mind. She is a big believer in seeing immediate results upon body and energy work, and that one can erase their "hardship spots" in their "blueprint" and create a new blueprint that is based in ancient rituals, holistic practice and integrative techniques.

Recently she was a guest teacher at Park City's 2006 Sundance. She teaches workshops routinely throughout the country and in Europe and India. She runs private tours to Jaipur, India through her company, www.AffordableIndia.Com. Her other great passions include fiction writing, interior and fashion design ( www.GetMeThatDesigner.Com) cooking, community outreach and horsebackriding.
