Absorbed by Ayurveda for more than a decade, Susan is deeply invested in helping people transform their vitality and become their best selves through practical use of classic Ayurvedic nutrition, herbs, warm oil treatments, education and yoga. She is the founder & lead practitioner at Atma Ayurveda, a full- spectrum wellness clinic offering Ayurvedic consult & treatment programs in Amsterdam, where she specializes in women’s health & menopause.
Susan moved to the Netherlands to teach for the Academy of Ayurvedic Studies (now Delight Academy) in 2008. Before Ayurveda, she studied women’s use of medicinal plants in India rural villages and remains an avid herbalist with a passion for using European herbs with Ayurvedic principles.
A long-time classical Hatha yogini (since 1999) and instructor (2005), she also trained in Ayurvedic Yoga, which uses yoga asanas according to the medical condition and Ayurvedic body type to restore optimum health.
“Ayurveda and Yoga have become so valuable to me, truly a source of personal investigation and healing. I take great joy in sharing whatever I have been fortunate enough to learn and integrate into my life. I try to make the teachings of Ayurveda accessible to clients & students in real, practical ways.”
