Cate’s Profile
My interest in Ayurveda came from prior work in global warming politics and economics. Since my teen years, I’ve been concerned with our carbon footprint and the thrive of our Earth. After working in Washington, D.C., for an energy and climate non-profit, I realized that I needed to know more about humans and consciousness. Why were some humans more aware and full of care regarding the bigger issues? How could the decision-makers at the big corporations not give a flying *&^# about the mess they were leaving in their wake? The search for why certain people were more evolved than others coupled with my passion for our planetary thrive drove me straight and fast into Ayurveda as a young adult (or whatever you call that awkward post-college age before you know what you’re doing next with your life).
That gives you somewhat of a picture. It leaves out a few big chunks.
As a kid, I had health issues. Ayurveda uprooted them by my early thirties. Thank the goddess.
And, post Ayurvedic studies, I dove hardcore into evolutionary groups and consciousness. Those experiences and teachings have led me to insist on live group involvement and participation as part of any course I teach. Basically, we evolve faster together. It’s that simple.
