Teacher, Healer, Yogini, Botanical Alchemist

Anita’s journey in the sacred healing arts began more than thirty years ago. She is a teacher, healer, yogini, botanical alchemist and passionate woman who share’s her love for Ayurveda, Yoga and the Sacred Art of living.

 

The fabric that makes up her lifestyle teachings is infused by the magic of her birthplace, Mysore, India. She draws inspiration from the spiritual lineage of her family, most important her mother and mentor, Swamini Srividyananda who resides at a Vedanta and Sanskrit Ashram. Anita’s yoga foundation began in the Iyengar tradition, with layered wisdom from teachers; Rod Stryker, Mas Vidal, Judith Lasater, Dr. Vasant Lad and years of study with master teachers in a variety of holistic modalities. She is certified at the 500hr level and Restorative Yoga.

 

Anita’s style of teaching Yoga is of the heart dedicated to the great Vedic Science of Yoga and Ayurveda. She is committed to teaching an integral form of yoga that combines the classical yoga system of Patanjali, integrated with the healing Science of Ayurveda. She strongly believes in the practice of Pranayama, Meditation and Mantra. Anita has always connected to sacred rituals and believes the elements of true beauty are more than skin deep. She created Anita Sundaram Beauty as a haven for Soul Nourishment. As a licensed face & body therapist she offers healing sessions incorporating the magic of botanicals, essential oils, and marma therapy to balance and heal the senses.

 

Anita’s newest endeavor is Sacred Intentions, 33 beautifully crafted Yoga & Ayurveda lifestyle cards to set your intention for the day, plus an accompanying workbook offering practical tips guiding you into Sacred ritual and daily Self-care. It is a journey of the Heart. You can purchase a set on the below. Anita currently travels the world inspiring health and wellness through the traditions of Yoga and Ayurveda. She currently facilitates Yoga Alliance approved international yoga teacher trainings, offers Sacred Intentions lifestyle and wellness education programs and Intentional Living retreats at some of the most beautiful places on the planet. She lives in Seal Beach, California with her husband and dog Goldie.

 

“My mission and hope is to inspire individuals to return to the Sacredness of life. It is imperative now that we come back home to simple principles. A foundation of balance, joy and in appreciation of this one magnificent life we have. This mind, body, spirit connection is aptly named for a reason, a profoundly sacred geometry that links us to everything on this planet. Let us live as a whole in the influence of our health. It is our birthright.” .

What’s your favorite yoga pose and why?

 

I would say lately it is, Adomukasvanasana, Downward facing dog. Classically called Mountain pose. This gesture when mindfully practiced from the foundation, the alignment and activating the breath to fill the posture, gives me a feeling of such stability, extension and peace. I often visualize my self as a powerful mountain, and in this way this wonderful asana becomes me, or maybe I become the mountain!

 

Three words Sacred, Gratitude and Humble. This journey of life is Yoga. My birth place being India, I innately feel the sacredness of this practice. Thousands of years for humankind to ask the question, Who am I? We still are asking this same thing. When I step on or off my mat I am filled with Gratitude and humbleness to be able to practice and share this immense wisdom. A practice of a beginners mind.

 

 

What is your favorite quote?

 

“Every journey is a pilgramage. Every sojourn offers the chance to connect with a Sacred secret; that we are all precious pieces of a vast and interconnected puzzle, and that every step we take, every connection we make helps complete that puzzle – and ourselves.” — Don George

 

 

What inspires you in your practice?

 

I am filled with gratitude and humbleness to be able to practice and share this immense wisdom. A practice of a beginners mind.
