Lara Anuradha Shah

A very big spirit in a little body, Lara is a translator and a bridge between the worlds, between cultures, and is passionately dedicated to engendering unity among all.

Of both East Indian and Turkish origin, educated in U.S., Japan (B.A.) and Turkey (M.A.), Lara's path has been the path of the shaman......not an easy one!!!

Lara left her body during a near-death experience in the Peruvian Andes, and after returning was chosen to be initiated into a closely guarded Incan tradition of energy medicine. Following more initiations into a shamanic brotherhood, Lara spontaneously "uploaded" the 12 Universal Laws of Healing - an ancient body of sacred codes that had been forgotten in the modern world. Her book, The Freedom of Innocence A journey into the heart of All That Is, outlines these Divine Laws.

From being an International Business Analyst, Journalist (Business Week Magazine and The Financial Times) and a comedy actress (yes, she has many sides indeed!), Lara suddenly found herself continuously touring the world to share forgotten wisdom so crucial to our lives today.....while making people laugh.

Coming full circle, Lara integrated her past with her present, pooling together experience and expertise from 2 very different realms. She specializes in igniting the untapped and latent creative potential within individuals, groups and organizations...through the process of inner and outer journeying.

Lara is an inspiring yet gentle facilitator who continues to maintain a global presence spanning 6 continents. She has 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"

- R.D., Kaua'i
