Why is Nailah so passionate about wellness work?
In early 2021, Nailah was diagnosed with cancer and took a break from working in order to rest and heal. Despite forgoing allopathic intervention entirely, Nailah made a full recovery. It was exclaimed to be a radical remission by her doctor at Froedtert Hospital. She healed from cancer through holistic health practices, including diet and lifestyle changes and deep spiritual work. Nailah made a transition in career and walked away from numerous opportunities in order to pursue further education in holistic health and wellness.
In 2021, Nailah launched her own wellness business, Creating Aliveness Ayurveda LLC, working with community members and organizations to promote wellness and implement holistic spiritual practices through her services. Through the divine blessings and love of Spiritual Guru Shri Ashutosh Maharaj, Nailah devoted her life to serving others with humility and compassion.
Currently, Nailah works with individuals to achieve their wellness goals through Creating Aliveness Ayurveda LLC. She blends both Eastern and Western thought and practices into her wellness services, emphasizing the connection between the body, mind, and consciousness in our overall wellness. The foundation of all her work is based in Bhakti Yoga, love and compassion, as taught and shown by the grace of her Guru Shri Ashutosh Maharaj.
Creating Aliveness Ayurveda LLC currently impacts change in wellness work through two pathways. One pathway is by partnering with organizations and schools to host workshops and group classes for improving community wellness. Nailah facilitates these intentional spaces using holistic practices such as meditation, pranayama (breath work), AyurYoga®, mantra, Ayurvedic education, and more. The second pathway is by seeing clients one-on-one in a clinical setting to support individuals at a deeper level.
