ABOUT

My name is Vana Dineshkumar and I have been a Reiki Master (Usui Reiki) since 2010 and a Yoga Instructor certified from Balance Life Yoga since 2012.

​​

Initially I studied Business & Finance and held accounting positions until I had my third child.  I chose to dedicate my life to nurturing my three children for a while.  I knew deep down that I had a calling for healing but didn’t know what that was.

 

I took my first step on this path by enrolling myself in the Natural Health Practitioner course, offered at AMCC (Alternative Medicine College of Canada). I always had a passion for alternative approaches to healing and interests in yoga, pilates, and nutrition. This course seemed the natural choice in keeping with balancing the body, mind and soul. 

​

Through this course, I came to learn about energy healing through Reiki and was fascinated. I had planned to pursue training in this once I had completed the course. As life would have it, in 2009 I experienced a personal crisis. All of my systems were shutting down. In search of healing for myself, I went for a few sessions of Reiki and noticed my life changing for the better.

 

Having experienced the power of Reiki firsthand, I knew that I wanted to be able to share this with others, so I went on to receive Reiki Attunements between 2009-2010 in order to become trained as a Reiki Master.

​

Reiki led me to Yoga teacher training in 2011, and eventually training in Ayurvedic scalp massage in 2018. 

​

I feel that we are all searching for healing and ways to lessen our suffering. I continue to educate myself on alternative modalities, so that I can be of service by providing people with tools to bring wellness into their lives.
