FEATURED IN:
Are you ready to embrace Vedic Wisdom to create more sacred, sumptuous living?
Maybe you’ve formally studied Ayurveda, but still don’t feel confident in your knowledge, or how to really live it, or even to share it, to fit our modern, western world.
Perhaps you’ve had a Vedic Astrology reading that left you with more questions than answers.
Or you’re brand new to meditation, mindfulness, mantra, Ayurveda, or Vedic Astrology (welcome!) and are looking for a way to get started that’s simple and practical.
Before I first began studying and practicing Yoga and Ayurveda 40+ years ago, I experienced deep heartbreak and so much loss. Feeling isolated, alienated, I just didn’t know where I belonged, if I belong at all.
All of this led me to meditation, where I found a beautiful tool to center and find a loving home in my heart. From meditation, I was led to Yoga, Yoga philosophy, Vedic cosmology, then Ayurveda and Jyotish.
And now I live in a place I call Grace, for who knew life could be this sacred, this sumptuous, this fulfilling!
More than ever, I find that what people are missing is the deep serenity that comes form aligning with nature’s rhythms. This is why I wrote my best-selling book, Ayurveda Cooking for Beginners: An Ayurvedic Cookbook to Balance and Heal, and created the Ayurveda Integrative Nutrition Training.
It’s also why I offer grounded 1:1 Jyotish Consults to help you know the light of you by the light of your Vedic Natal Chart and to help you navigate life’s cycles, by looking at how the ever-dynamic play of the planets affects you.

There are few people to whom I would entrust my soul. Laura Plumb is certainly one of them. Laura’s knowledge and capacity to convey meaning through this ancient science is obvious. A recent session with her offered new light to guide me on my earthly pilgrimage. I highly recommend her!
Your classes are so heart-healing and inspiring. I am again and again amazed by the pure beauty of you. You are like Venus star for me… I always turn to your light to reminding myself of love and beauty. Thank you so much for being this light in my life! 🙂
Laura is wonderful! She is incredibly knowledgeable, insightful, honest, approachable, caring, kind, empathic. She has an amazing gift to communicate to ALL. I have had 2 readings with Laura and plan to check back regularly. Feeling very lucky to have found her. I could not recommend Laura more highly.

“Hello Laura, I wanted to send you a note of appreciation for the book you’ve written, Ayurveda Cooking for Beginners. It’s amazing. It’s one of the best books I’ve read, and it has enhanced my health and well-being. Thank you for your excellent work. ~ Dev
Thank you for being someone who helps guide me from darkness to light, from fear to hope, and to take even greater risks to touch the hem of holiness.
I thank you so deeply for helping me get back in touch with my inner self. Of the many gifts you have given me, this is far and away the greatest. I know that without exception you will profoundly change the lives of all you come in contact with. I look forward to continuing to reap the beautiful benefits of being around your uplifting and healing vibration. Love, love, and more love!
Laura’s ability to listen deeply and then home-in on just the right words to uplift and guide is magical (delivered with a voice like butter). She is an embodiment of the phrase “strong back, soft front, wild heart.” I feel safe, seen, and compassionately guided by her wisdom and love. Thank you Laura!
I wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I enjoy your blog, Facebook, and newsletter. The photos are so beautiful, recipes are delicious, and just all around great information, so clearly presented.
Laura is caring, kind, wise, intuitive, nurturing. She has helped me adjust to improve my health. She is, ‘Simply the Best’.
I love your Divine Yoga series. I love the focus on the mythology! You are great at explaining and incorporating your teachings into the class! I learned about some of this during my yoga training, but the way you explain it is easier to understand. Very nice flows and I love your smile and natural disposition! Thank you Laura.
