Author Biography
Written by Lisa Klein Lesser and Brittany Barrett. Lisa is an Ayurvedic practitioner, wellness coach and postpartum doula. After the birth of her first child, it became clear to Lisa that the western medical establishment did not think about health the same way she did. She already had a budding interest in yoga (asana), food, herbs, nature and the power these things had over her health. Discovering Ayurveda gave her a construct to understand how these things fit together and a tool set to use them to help her family, friends and now her clients. Lisa is now helping Bay Area clients leverage the ancient teachings of Ayurveda to naturally lead healthier lives. Lisa lives in Marin county with her husband, daughters, dog, goats and chickens. Brittany Barrett came to Ayurveda through her personal quest to seek natural healing from a chronic digestive disease. She discovered Vedika Global College of Ayurveda in 2009, and was fully cured soon after through following an Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle. Since graduating, Brittany founded Daily Ayurveda (www.dailyayurveda.com), a platform to educate people about the fundamental principles of Ayurveda and make it accessible and feasible for everybody to follow. Brittany is passionate about the healing properties of foods and spices, and enjoys cooking for her friends and family in her spare time. She also teaches cooking classes and provides personalized one on one health counseling.
