Testimonials

“As a healthcare practitioner, Sasha has a rare combination of formidable intellect and tender-hearted receptivity. She has numerous qualities, innate to her, that are indicative of a true healer; the ability to listen to and take in a person fully, to perceive them in their complex multi-faceted nature, and advocate for their health and wellbeing articulately with a beautiful balance of firmness, honesty and compassion. I’ve known her for many years and I have never seen her approach her service or life in general with anything but thoroughness and impeccability. I cannot recommend her enough as an Ayurvedic practitioner.”

“Guiding you gently to find the stillness needed, to enter that space, temporarily suspending all senses, a screen placed between the inner world and outer world, so without disruption you can be here now, be still, and listen, let your soul speak. What does it say? Sasha sparked that inspiration. Reminding me it’s due time I return to the stillness, to let my soul speak. Being in Sasha’s presence you instantly feel love surrounding you. When you speak, you know without question she is listening with loving care and deep consideration, this is her nature. You feel her acknowledge you at the depths of your being, leaving you wondering if she is listening and speaking from her heart, to yours, detecting the beats, as you feel she feels you in a much more profound way, guiding you almost invisibly, leading you to epiphanies. That is the light Sasha is, her glow reflective, her warmth is felt and passed along. I feel at ease speaking my mind with her, and her words resonate, inspiring me to reach higher states of consciousness. Planting seeds of hope, and gentle encouragement along the way, from heady philosophical talks, to casual conversations. It became clear to me her path in Ayurveda was a spark matched, and I am grateful Sasha found her path, and it’s true she screams love into this world without making a sound. I am confident Sasha will help heal and guide others to live the life they want to live, to be happy healthy and free. Her wisdom, clarity in mind, kindness, humility and grace inspire me. Sasha is a beautiful soul, a beautiful mind, and wherever she goes she resides in her divine truth. It shows as the love and light pulsate and reverberate everywhere, gifts of joy. I am grateful.”

“Sasha has been a big part of shaping the woman I am today. She is dependable and always honest, even when honesty is not what you want to hear, but what you need to hear. She is compassionate. She is the type of person who cares completely and selflessly for anyone and everyone more than herself; people, animals, plants, etc. She gives herself fully. Her confidence shines through in her intelligence, her devotion, and her drive. She is passionate, she is fierce, and she is trustworthy. Sasha is dedicated to helping people, and I have no doubt in my mind that is what she is set to do and will succeed in doing so.”

“I have known Sasha Bershadsky for almost ten years. I’ve seen Sasha grow exponentially as a person over that period. I’ve witnessed her completely upend her life, going from talented corporate creative, to following her true calling as a healer. It has been truly inspirational to see the lengths she has gone through to learn and master her craft, and the passion she has for helping others. She has shown an amazing ability to manifest all of the love, goodness and kindheartedness that has always been permeating within her, and channel it into healing those in need. 

I can personally attest to Sasha’s knowledge and healing powers. During a recent trip to New York, she was able to help me exponentially with some overall wellness issues I was suffering from. In addition, her presence, attentiveness, kindness, loving touch and robust approach to living gave me some much-needed positivity during a hard time.

It is for this reason and others that I would wholeheartedly recommend Sasha as a health and spiritual counselor to anyone who is suffering. She is a gifted healer, but more so, she is a gift as a person. I have met few like her, and I feel blessed to know her. She always puts others first, and everything she does is with great love and understanding. Truthfully, what more could you ask for from a counselor.”

“Meeting Sasha is such a special treat. She is so full of positivity, curiosity, and love for everyone and everything around her. Her calling to practice Ayurveda clearly comes from a deep and special place within. She was born for this!”

“Sasha is a beautiful woman of body and mind, who has been able to tap into something deep within herself. Something ancient, spiritual, and pure. As soon she looks at you and you hear her voice, you’ll understand. She has embraced her mission in life to share her love and the path of Ayurveda and the feminine spirit. To give people the tools to live the best life they can and be the best they can be.”

– Eddie A.

 

“About two years ago I found myself looking within, searching for more. That’s when I found Sasha Bershadsky and Ayurveda! I watched one of her short videos, then I watched another, and another. In Sasha, I saw someone I can relate to, that was sharing relatable content, and, doing so, with so much love, and compassion, in a way, that I was practically moved to tears. 

Sasha has helped me come so far in realizing simple things like daily habits, decisions and diet are a mainstay in seeking true health and happiness.

Implementing and adopting routines based on Doshas and the 5 Elements had me searching for answers intrigued by a pathway far off from where I came from. Sasha has guided me to a place I never knew existed for me.”

“Back in April of 2021, I was struggling on several different levels. My stress level was through the roof, my soul was ready for a new life path and yet I felt stuck in my current surroundings and my physical health was in agony. Of all the medical professionals that I had seen thus far for various reasons, no one was able to really connect with me. I was given one bandaid or dismissal after another. None of the medical professionals had the ability or desire to work together or really help me. For a long time I felt frustrated and hopeless. 

After a while of giving up on the Western Medical system, I started seeking out my own knowledge. As an escape from my unhappiness, Yoga found me one day. I consistently showed and fell in love with the connection to the divine that it brought. In addition to Yoga I started seeing a chiropractor and meditating at home. I was consistently reading books about alternative healing methods and then one day I stumbled across Ayurveda. I felt a deep connection to what I read. I was convinced that this deep well of knowledge held the answers I was seeking. 

Eventually my self study and dedication to wellness led me to signing up for an Ayurvedic class that Sasha was holding at the Yoga studio I was attending at the time. The class was about how to manage your stress, I believe. Honestly, it didn't matter to me what the title was because it was about Ayurveda. When I arrived I was pleased to find that the class was small and Sasha was very easy to connect with. She was welcoming, articulate and had caring eyes. She went through her slide show and I felt convinced that this was my opportunity to connect with someone who could help me. I am so glad I listened to that intuitive nudge to become one of her patients. 

After the class, I sent Sasha a message about becoming a patient and we set up our first meeting. Prior to the first meeting, she sent me an application to fill out. This application was long but thorough. I appreciated her gathering all my details before our first meeting.

Let me tell you something very special right now, that first meeting was like a lifetime download of information. She asked me about every aspect of my life. I told her things that would have taken a therapist years to unpack and she graciously took in all my details with intention and love. I couldn't believe it myself actually. The safe space she created for me really paved the way for us to have deep future conversations. In addition to my past, Sasha also did an examination of my physical features and asked me lots of intelligent questions about my daily habits. She captured an immense amount of information. By the time the meeting ended, I felt like someone finally saw me from the inside out. I will never forget how she made me feel that day.

The next meeting, Sasha had a report of findings for me. This was where she told me what my doshic balance is and the imbalances that I currently had. Even though there was a lot for her to report back to me, she delivered the information to me in an easy to understand way. She printed everything out for me to see and understand. She explained where I was at and how she was going to start helping me feel better. She gave me the first couple of things to implement and I went home happy. 

Sasha and I continued to meet regularly over ZOOM because she moved out of the area. This was a little bit of a challenge for me but we made it work. Each time we met, Sasha would examine my tongue and ask me questions about how my days in between went. She always listened with intention. Toward the end she made new recommendations that I could focus on for the week ahead which included self love practices, recipes and guided mediations. I gratefully accepted her recommendations and felt like divine timing was giving me exactly what I needed each time. Again, she always made me feel heard and loved. 

We met regularly for several months and in the end, I learned a great deal about how to self regulate my emotions, how to eat for my dosha and the season and I also learned that we are our greatest advocate in all situations. The best thing I received from working with Sasha was permission to put myself first. Sasha equipped me with the love, support and tools that I needed to get back in the drivers seat of my own health. My stomach issues went away, my confidence went up, I started teaching Yoga and attending college. 

If you're reading this that means Ayurveda has found you too. You paved the way with intention of self healing. What a true blessing. I recommend that everyone see an Ayurvedic Practitioner during all stages of life. The knowledge you'll gain by understanding how your body and soul relate to the rest of the elements in the Universe is priceless. No more feeling invisible and powerless to the convoluted medical system. 

Thank you for following your Dharma, Sasha. Five stars, 2 thumbs up, 10 out of 10!”
