Yoga Therapy (Chikitsa) is a holistic practice (addressing every aspect of Being; physical, energetic, psycho-emotional and one’s deepest sense of self) that empowers people to  consciously participate in their own healing and transformation. Yoga Therapy addresses your unique Being including physiology, muscular-skeletal patterns as well as your individual thought patterns, emotions, overall energy levels, medical conditions and current life situation. Transformation can occur when specific practices are chosen for specific results pertaining to the individual. 

As a Yoga Therapist I meet with students one-to-one to determine each person’s unique needs, abilities and goals to create a truly individualized and comprehensive therapeutic Yoga practice. Using the various tools of Yoga Chikitsa  (which may include appropriate movements, breathing practices, particular sounds and/or visualizations and practices leading to meditation)  a practice is created to suit your unique and individual requirements and to suit your current circumstance. Your practice is designed to be achievable so the time you have available informs your practice. The practice is taught to you in your session (and drawings/or recorded verbal instructions are given to you as a reminder) which you then practice for yourself at home/office/etc. As you develop in your practice and/or your experience or circumstances change we meet to adjust your practice to match your new needs.

Whoever you are, whatever your state of Being, a practice can be created to facilitate healing and transformation.

Harriet Ross is a certified Yoga Therapist. 

Since childhood I’ve known there’s something around teaching and healing that I was meant to engage, though conventional options of the day didn’t really fit. What IT is became apparent to me through an epiphany while in a Kundalini Yoga class in 2000 and since then I have been on the journey of the study and practice of Yoga.

My formal Yoga trainings have been through Atlantic Yoga Teacher Training (2002) in the Kripalu tradition, from which I went on to do a 3month residential Spiritual Lifestyle Program at the Kripalu Centre for Yoga and Health. Since 2004 I have been studying Classical Yoga with teachers in the lineage of Sri Krishnamacharya, I completed a second teacher training in this lineage  in 2008 and completed the Yoga Therapist training in 2012 (both through Yoga Therapy Toronto.) I have also been enriching my understanding of Yoga philosophy and Ayurveda with my friend and mentor Pankaj Seth in London, ON.

Besides Yoga my studies have included Fine Art ([Intermedia, drawing and sculpture] at NSCADU) performance art, Mask & Movement, and Herbology. In my studies I have been fortunate to have had teachers who encouraged me to engage and deepen my understanding of my, and ultimately THE Creative Source. 

That Being IS Spirit has been and continues to be my greatest inspiration, motivation, and exploration, it is in gratitude to and in service of this connection that I share what I have learned.

Peace,
Harriet Ross
