JayavatiApothecary

As a yoga teacher and holistic wellness counselor, I developed Jayavati Apothecary as a natural extension of my work, and as the intuitive culmination of years of study in diverse healing methods and techniques. Early in life I experienced several adverse health issues stemming from an autoimmune condition linked to sensitivities to synthetic chemicals and preservatives commonly found in food, cosmetic, and household products. Doctors gave up on me and said my case was hopeless, and finding no solution in conventional Western medicine, I began to look for natural ways to restore balance and health. My personal journey to recovery has fueled a lifelong passion for traditional healing arts and the desire to share the fruits of this knowledge with others seeking a return to natural living and wholebody wellness.

While immersed in East Asian Studies in college, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to travel extensively in China, exploring ancient spiritual practices and traditional plant-based medicine. Upon returning to the United States, I began putting this knowledge to use in crafting homemade products for myself and sharing them with others. Friends and clients soon began requesting their own customized formulas. Encouraged by the popular demand for these offerings, I created Jayavati Apothecary to make my products more widely available to those searching for high quality natural ingredients.

With true reverence for Mother Nature, recipes are formulated by the time-honored wisdom of traditional healers to create unique blends that deeply nourish body, mind, and spirit. Products are all natural and organic, ethically sourced, and lovingly handcrafted in small batches from plant and mineral ingredients in their purest forms. These gifts from Nature are intended to enhance your daily self-care rituals, to be savored as indulgent treats, and to be valued for their therapeutic benefits which support mindbody health and wellness.

Through yoga we come to an understanding of the body as a temple in which the soul resides, the vessel that carries us on our spiritual journey. Take care of the body and it will take care of you. It is my hope that you will enjoy these products in the spirit in which they were crafted, as a dedication to self-care that has the potential to infuse every aspect of our lives with love and light.
