Introducing myself.

Greetings fellow blog readers.
I'd like to welcome myself to the world of blogging.
I always knew of it.
I never did it,
Until now.

Namaste.

My name is Seema Sahani.  I'm 32 years old.  I live in Queens, New York with my beautiful family; my father, mother, older sister, her husband and their twins, younger brother and younger sister.  Full House, I know!

Since this is my first blog entry, I thought an introduction of myself would be appropriate.  I was born and brought up in Queens, New York, the best place ever!  I was studying advertising in Manhattan when one summer my father approached me and said, "look into Ayurveda."  As I was raised in a traditional Indian family, I had always heard of Ayurveda, but still my reaction was, "excuse me?"  So, like any typical traditional Hindu father's girl would do, I did.

I found a college in Fairfield, Iowa called Maharishi University of Management.  My whole family drove me there one summer vacation to check it out.  It was a long drive but the scenery was great.  When we arrived at the campus I was thinking silently, "what have I gotten myself into?  This is the twilight zone."  But the people there were sweet, soft spoken and humble individuals greeting my family and I as if we were royalty.

Even still, my reaction to everything was, "How could I possibly move from New York and go to a University in Fairfield, Iowa, to get a degree in a field I knew almost nothing about?"  To make a long story short, I enrolled for the semester, I fell in love, and graduated with honors with a BA in Maharishi Vedic Medicine.  I loved, cherished, adored and was blessed each day I was there.

Meditation is an integral part of life at Maharishi University of Management.  Transcendental Meditation as taught by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.  My initial reaction was one of resistance.  But ten years after graduating I feel I have more knowledge and understanding of my Self because of this.   Now I am at a time in my life where I want to share this knowledge with you because Ayurveda is the science of life.
