ABOUT US

Rooted in Tradition, Serving the Pacific Northwest

Embrace Ayurveda is guided by Sarah Kruse, Ayurvedic Practitioner. From my Pacific Northwest based office at the Dayaalu Center on Bainbridge Island, I support clients through in-person sessions and global telemedicine. Consultations include pulse and tongue assessment, constitutional guidance, and practical daily routines you can thrive with. I look at what practices will support you the most, right now. Some examples of suggestions I might make are specific foods, teas, herbal formulas, yoga poses, breathwork, skin care, massage, cleansing and shifting certain paradigms. My focus is to provide you with clear next steps that support optimal digestion, energy, and resilience, so that you can trust your body again and live your fullest, most vibrant life. I personally feel that connection with ourselves, Nature, each other and Divine Source is essential. May you be connected and supported in all ways.

FAQS

Common Questions About Ayurveda & Our Care

  • Which service is the best starting point if I’m new to Ayurveda?

    Most people begin with an initial consultation to clarify constitution, current imbalances, and goals. From there, you’ll have a clearer sense of whether a program like the three-month Ayurvedic Health Coaching Program, Ignite Your Life Reset, bodywork, or a retreat fits your timeline and needs.

  • What should I bring or prepare for Abhyanga or Shirodhara?

    You’ll receive simple guidance when you book. In general, it helps to arrive hydrated and avoid a heavy meal right before your session. We also recommend wearing clothes you don't mind getting a little oil on! Afterward, try to plan a quieter window so those calming effects can really settle in.

  • How do I decide between Ignite Your Life Reset and Panchakarma?

    Ignite Your Life Reset is often chosen when you want structured guidance over time while staying in your normal routine. Panchakarma is typically chosen when you want a deeper, immersive retreat experience and have the space to commit to several consecutive days.

  • Can telemedicine work if I’m not able to travel to Bainbridge Island?

    Yes. Telemedicine can be a good fit for consultation-based guidance and follow-ups, especially when you want help with routines, food timing, seasonal support, and next-step planning from home.

  • What’s the difference between the skin care consultation and buying face cream on its own?

    Buying a cream gives you a simple daily ritual right away. A skin care consultation adds personalized guidance around patterns like sensitivity, dryness, or irritation, so your routine can feel more targeted and consistent.
