HI, I’m Anna Welle
an Ayurvedic Practitioner and certified Yoga Health Coach
I studied Ayurveda formally through Kerala Ayurveda Academy and the Living Ayurveda Course. I still study (and practice) it on myself. And learn through helping clients for the past 9+ years. I've also taught as a mentor in the Living Ayurveda Course for 7 years.
I’m passionate about helping people understand this amazing system of support to help us live better, longer, and with more grace, ease and joy.
Over the years of working with hundreds of clients and course members, I’ve seen where people are most likely to get confused or hung up. I’ve been inspired to create this mini-course to address those challenging spots and make it fun, easy and useful.
To give you more ah-ha’s and WOWs and less ‘what the heck…?’ s

Working with Anna has been such a privilege and joy. I looked forward so much to our Skypes. I felt she was working not just from a place of deep knowledge, but also intuition and personal experience. An important blend!
I learned so much from her, and always re-read the notes from our calls, they were so packed with information. We covered many areas from the Ayurvedic tradition, both practical and subtle concepts. I really valued the suggestions she’s given for both myself and for my yoga clients.
I always left our calls feeling more knowledgeable, positive and inspired. Thank you Anna!
Working with Anna has been like having a true friend on the end of the line, holding a space for me with kindness and openness. I love how Anna uses her deep listening skills to understand what is the key issue I am working with, and then helps me find the answers within.
On many of our discussions, hearing Anna rephrase and reflect back to me, I was able to come to find many answers and next steps to work towards. I felt my information was held with such wisdom and respect via Anna’s wealth of Ayurvedic knowledge, and her trust in the process. Anyone on the Ayurvedic path would be well held in working with Anna, I feel blessed to have experienced her coaching, Thank-you Anna.

FAQ's
What if I don’t really get Ayurveda?
That’s totally fine. I’ll start with the basics and we’ll build it up from there. Everything is delivered in a simple, clear, concise way to make it easy to digest and start applying right away. You’ll be amazed at what you walk away with and can retain.
Do I have to learn Sanskrit?
I’ll use a few Sanskrit terms that are important for broadening your view of how Ayurveda, and the universe, works. These terms have multi-faceted meanings that can’t be directly translated into one English word, and their exploration is a fundamental key for getting deeper into the science. Even speaking them out loud offers a vibrational transmission. That being said, the Sanskrit terms that are used are quite limited.
I don’t have a ton of free time.
Is this a big commitment?
Nope! That’s the beauty of the mini-course. I distilled what I’ve learned in years of formal school studies, books, and teaching to clients and course members into this quick and clear program. It’s about 3 hours of video tutorials and the workbook is yours to explore as you wish
