Harmony Slater
About this episode

 In this powerful episode of the Finding Harmony Podcast, Harmony Slater sits down with Ramona Rouhdoust, a healer, teacher, and founder of Let’s Yoga Shiatsu. Ramona shares her incredible journey from her early life in Iran to her transition from a career in biopharmaceutical research to becoming a spiritual teacher and healer.

Ramona discusses the pivotal moment when she left her high-powered job to pursue healing practices like Shiatsu, yoga, and breathwork—ultimately creating a life of deep presence, purpose, and peace. She opens up about the transformative power of breath, her connection to energy healing, and the profound impact of spiritual practices like meditation, pranayama, and spinal energetics.

This episode is a deep dive into how energy healing, yoga, pranayama, and spinal energetics can help us reconnect with our bodies, calm our nervous systems, and rediscover a sense of inner sanctuary, no matter how chaotic life may become.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • How Ramona’s journey from science to spirituality transformed her life
  • The impact of breathwork, pranayama, and Shiatsu on healing
  • Why energy healing can be a powerful tool for personal growth
  • The importance of balance between Yin and Yang practices
  • How yoga and meditation can support nervous system regulation
  • The role of presence and stillness in spiritual transformation
