Hi there, I’m Ivu
A holistic therapist living in the Himalayas.
I fell in love with ayurveda and holistic healing SO MUCH that I moved from Prague to Dharamshala, India, to dive into it. To live it. I healed my chronic digestive issues here, while studying yoga, ayurveda and buddhism. I am constantly in awe with life, the mountains, and the occasional teachings of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
My story
I grew up in a small village in Central Bohemia. I studied at the university of humanities in Prague. I always enjoyed teaching and sharing knowledge. I spent a couple of years after school as an English teacher, then I switched to teaching street dance, then yoga… which eventually brought me to India in 2019, when I got to meet Dr Sharma, to study Ayurveda and fall in love with holistic health care.
Apart from holistic health care, some of my greatest passions have always been music, dance, arts, handcrafts, healthy baking, food tourism and enjoying plenty of relaxation in life.
My life can be neatly divided into before and after LA (that’s where I took my first yoga class), before and after India (that’s where I found Yoga Therapy and Ayurveda), before and after my Ayurvedic Therapist course (that’s where I found a whole lot of new perspectives)… I could go on.
Yoga, Ayurveda and Buddhism have helped me tremendously on this journey. That’s why I love sharing them so much.
Every step I took on this journey was a choice. It was me who stopped torturing my body with unhealthy habits. It was me who noticed that my chronic digestive issues are telling me something important. It was me who listened. And it was me who packed up my stuff in 2022 and moved to India to give this healing process my everything.
Holistic health is, first of all, an inward journey.
Holistic therapy is so powerful because it places all the power and all the responsibility back into our own hands.
I invite you to join me on this path.
All you need to do is get in touch.
