A
big spirit in a small body,
Lara
is passionate about the human journey
and dedicated to engendering
unity among
all. She is a natural translator and
a bridge between people, cultures and worlds.
Of
both East Indian and Turkish origin,
educated in U.S., Japan (B.A.) and Turkey
(M.A.), Lara is a truly global citizen.
In 2002, Lara had a life-altering near-death
experience in the Peruvian Andes. Catch the
irony there? While her body lay for dead
in a coma, the rest of her was taken on a
magical
mystery
ride of profound understanding. After
returning to her body (she actually had to
be forced back in) and waking up from the
coma, Lara was chosen to be initiated into
a closely guarded
Incan
tradition
of energy medicine by the shaman who helped
save her life. Following an intense series
of initiations,
Lara
uploaded, from the depths of her being,
the 12 Universal Laws of Healing - an ancient
body of
sacred codes that have since been
forgotten. Her book, The
Freedom of Innocence A journey
into the heart of All That Is,
outlines these Divine Laws in the form of a
story. From
being an International Business Analyst,
Journalist (Business
Week Magazine and The
Financial Times) and a comedy actress
(yes, you read that correctly...a comedy
actress), Lara now integrates her passion
with her intense life experience to lead
others through the
same transformational journey she herself
has been on.....a journey from fragmentation
to wholeness, from darkness to lightness,
from fear to love.
The word most unanimously
used to describe Lara by those that have
worked closely with her is "GRACE".
Lara
maintains a
global presence
spanning 6
continents with clients and students
in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia,
India,
Australia,
New Zealand, U.K., Spain, France, Norway,
United States, Canada, Peru, Costa
Rica, Turkey,
Egypt and Morocco. She resides on the sacred
island of Kaua'i, in Hawai'i.
"Lara is a refreshing presence
whose lightness and humor belies her
deep wisdom and caring for the awakening
process in all of us"
