ABOUT THE HOST
Jyothi V. Robertson
Jyothi V. Robertson is a student of meditation practice for 40+ years and trauma-sensitive grounding practices formally for the past three years.

She began pursuing her own formal exploration of spirituality as an anthropology major at Princeton University and conducted fieldwork for her thesis while living at an ashram (spiritual center) in India in 1996. As a veterinarian, she is interested in highlighting the spiritual connection between all living beings.
Jyothi has completed certifications in trauma-sensitive mindfulness, advanced trauma-sensitive meditation, deep listening, DEI, and since 2019, has been receiving training in Buddhist meditation practices and philosophy.
