Lauren is an Ayurvedic health counselor, yoga teacher, and former RN who worked in the ICU for a decade on both coasts. While working as a nurse, yoga became a stress reliever. She pursued her new passion by completing her first 200 hour yoga training at Corepower Yoga in Encinitas, CA, in 2011 and again in 2016 at The New School of Yogic Arts in Brookline, MA. Her favorite part of this training was a lecture on Ayurveda, which inspired her to complete a 650-hour training on Ayurveda at the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in the Berkshires. There, she met Dr. Satyanarayana Dasa Babaji, a world-renowned guru, and Dr. Jessica Richmond, psychologist, whose lessons on Vedic psychology revealed major blind spots needing investigation. Lauren has been learning from Jessica and Babaji for years and completed their Vedic Psychology teacher training through the Vedic Psychology Institute in 2022.

Initially from Mattapoisett, she recently returned with her husband and son. She is fascinated by Eastern traditions, including Traditional Chinese Medicine, feng shui, and martial arts, and enjoys applying healthy Ayurvedic tweaks to fun food like mac and cheese.
