Light and Truth Holistic Health
Meet Sarita
At a very young age I lost the most two important people in my life due to violence and used negative ways to cope with my loss, with the grief and abandonment. I didn't know that I was dealing with PTSD and the resulting anxiety and depression was the result from me dissociating from those buried emotions. It sparked the curiosity for me to learn about people's behaviors because subconsciously I wanted to know the origins of why I never felt safe and always thought something bad was going to happen. Through my healing journey, I learned a lot about myself and I've giving myself a lot of compassion and grace, and I had to release that hidden emotional weight in order to gain more freedom, ease and joy.

My younger self used food to cope with all the uncomfortable emotions because I didn't realize I was hurting. Even growing up in the church didn't relieve those feelings and sometimes made it worst. Eventually I got tired of the low self-image, anxiety, excessive weight and yo- yo dieting and knew that I had to be the one to make myself feel better from the inside-out because the things outside of me, food, relationships, distractions were fleeting and made me feel worse.
​
Lots of prayer and reading books like "A New Earth" started my awakening into something different than before. Then after a break-up from a long term relationship was the catalyst for me to go to an ashram to do a yoga teacher training and mediation became the practice that helped me break free from destructive habits and allowed me to start to know and love myself.
This journey has lead me into getting my BA in Psychology and working with people with Mental disabilities and illnesses for over 20 years. I've been practicing Yoga for many years and been teaching for the past 2 years along with providing Reiki and Holistic Lifestyle sessions. I am also certified in Health and Wellness coaching and Swai Tawi Kemetic Yoga. I'm training to become and herbalist because I love plants and their power. But my greatest and important role that has transformed me is being a Mom that taught me the power of unconditional love.

I know for me the only way to heal and to feel good in our bodies is acceptance of all parts of us, mind, body, spirit. And that is bringing the hidden into the light....
