Co-Founder
Jaisri M. Lambert has been practising & teaching natural therapies since l983 after her debilitating migraine headaches kindled her interest in alternative therapies. Her exploration led her first to Polarity Therapy, where she became certified in 1985. As interest & demand for natural healing classes increased, Jaisri founded the Westcoast Polarity School & later the East-West Polarity School, teaching innovations in Polarity Therapy internationally.
In 1989 she met renowned Ayurveda physician & author Vaidya Vasant D. Lad, B.A.M.S., MA.Sc. in Victoria, B.C., an event that deeply influenced her life. Dr. Lad taught, “Healing is love plus intelligence”, validating Jaisri’s experience that spirituality & physical life are not separate.
