hey there⋆✴︎˚。⋆
If you’ve landed here,hi!
I’m real glad you found your way.
I’m Averie. A yoga teacher, Vedic astrology practitioner, Vedic counselor, podcast host, lover of color and artist at heart.
At my core, I’m driven by this : There is something wildly honest in every person, and most of us have spent a lifetime learning how to cover it up, quiet it down, or make it easier to explain.
BUT I’m interested in what happens when we stop performing the version of ourselves that keeps everyone comfortable and start making room for ourselves to just be in our honest-to-whatever truth.
What I do…
I weave together yoga, Jyotish, embodiment, mindfulness, and creative practice. Each offers a different doorway into the same work: understanding your patterns, tending to what is happening within, and strengthening your relationship with your own intuition and self.
Sometimes that happens through movement and the wisdom of the body. Sometimes it happens through the symbolic language of a birth chart or a conversation that gives shape to something you have been carrying quietly. The form might change, but the intention stays to meet yourself with greater clarity, context, and a little compassion.
My approach is intuitive, light-hearted, and often involves a heavy dose of humor and humility (we’re all just little humans figuring it out after all). I’m not here to hand you a one-size-fits-all practice or tell you who you are. I’m here to offer you the tools to listen more clearly to the body, tap into the patterns, the timing, and the truth already speaking through your life.
My Story
I hardly arrived at this work through a perfectly mapped plan. In fact, if 2016 Averie could see me, she’d probably be scratching her head in so much confusion. Honestly, I came to it while searching for my own way back to myself.
In 2019, after the birth of my daughter and the ending of a career path that no longer felt aligned, I started asking bigger questions about how I really wanted to show up and live, what impact I wanted to have, and what it would look like to create a life that actually felt honest, one that felt meaningful. (It was a whole existential thing, to be honest.)
So naturally, I returned to school to study psychology, but I found over and over, that I kept reaching for ways of understanding ourselves that could hold more than the science and Western perspective of the mind had to offer. I wanted frameworks that made room for the body, that listened to intuition and energetics, created space for symbolism + spirit, and the experiences we carry that exist far beneath the capacity of any language. That searching led me deeper into yoga, mindfulness, and eventually Jyotish, the Vedic system of astrology.
When I entered an adaptive and therapeutically oriented yoga teacher training in 2022, something shifted. I began learning from teachers who created space for both deep knowledge and honest self-inquiry. What started as a search slowly shifted into a process of remembering.
I came to understand one of the truths that continues to shape my work:
We have always been ourselves. So much of the work is learning how to return from the noise, expectations, and survival patterns into the truth and sacredness of who we already are.
Today, I bring together adaptive and trauma-informed yoga, embodied movement, Vedic astrology, mindfulness, and reflective Vedic counseling. Through private sessions, group practices, workshops, and teacher education, I aim to create spaces where people can slow down, notice what is true, and strengthen their relationship to their own inner guidance.
I see intuition as a relationship, something we nurture through attention, honesty, embodiment, and practice. As that relationship deepens, we begin to move through life with greater agency, self-trust, and a clearer understanding of the season we are in.
