Tell us a little about your background

Lissa Coffey

I have expertise and training in the study of Deepak Chopra and Vasant lad. I have a B.S. in Sociology, a PH.D., Religion, a M.A. Ph.D. in Sociology and I'm a Certified Iinstructor for the Chopra Center for WellBeing. I'm a Lifestyle Designer who serves up an inspiring blend of ancient wisdom and modern style. I've written several books including, "What's your Dosha, Baby? Discover the Vedic Way for Compatibility in Life and Love" (Marlowe & Co.), "Getting There! 9 Ways to Help Your Kids Learn What Matters Most in Life." I've also co-authored "The Healthy Family Handbook," a primer to alternative health therapies that earned praise from Marianne Williamson and many others. I also contribute to many national publications with my insightful and compassionate approach to modern-day issues.

Why did you choose this line of work?

It's fascinating and fun! There's always something new. I love seeing results and helping people make a difference in their lives.

No one else understands Ayurveda the way I do in terms of relationships. Ayurveda is the Science of Life – and life is all about relationships, most importantly the relationship we have with ourselves. I tend to see the bright side in things and come up with creative solutions.
