She has dedicated over a decade to her work in the fields of health and fitness. As a collegiate athlete and co-captain of women's water polo at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Narsai's pursuit for peak performance in sports triggered an exploration into nutrition, sports medicine and meditation. "I wanted to be better, stronger, faster, smarter -- and wanted the same for my teammates," Narsai says. Seeta went on to train with the USA East Coast All-Star Team and lead her team to four consecutive conference titles. She was also honored as a two-time NCAA All-American Athlete. Subsequently, as a fitness trainer in Hollywood, Seeta guided hundreds of her clients to achieve their fitness goals – at least the toned glutes and ripped abs everyone thought they wanted. But Seeta could see, both in her clients and herself, that these external markers didn't seem to correlate to true wellbeing. In fact, despite her toned body, she didn't feel healthy or expansive – in spirit, mind or body. When yoga entered Seeta's life, it altered its' trajectory forever, transforming her heart and spirit. It was through her yoga and meditation practice that Narsai found her greatest loves: Ayurvedic medicine & educating others. Seeta completed her Clinical Doctorate in Ayurvedic Medicine at American University of Complementary Medicine, with a focus on women's health. She now serves at the university as adjuct faculty. Seeta is currently researching the therapeutic benefits of medical marijuana from an Indian Medicine perspective and is authoring her first book titled,
Cannabis, Sex & God, Reclaiming the Spiritual Wisdom of Sacred Plant Medicine. (Click on title to learn more) Today Seeta lives and works in Los Angeles. While Seeta's clients include A-list entertainers, entrepreneurs, filmmakers as well as professional athletes, her focus is educating and bringing the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda to the mainstream public.
