Integrative health & wellness practice using healing modalities of Ayurveda & Yoga.
Turiya Holistic Health is an Ayurvedic wellness clinic and lifestyle community. We offer a unique space where clients can initiate or deepen their practice of Ayurveda, receive personalized support and connect with others on the path to optimal health. You can read more about Ayurveda HERE.
We specialize in helping people find a diet and lifestyle that supports their individual needs, taking into consideration any existing health conditions and challenges. Things we encounter often in the clinic include – digestive disorders, reproductive health issues, anxiety, depression, insomnia, hormone imbalance, addictions and disordered eating. We also help women in the various stages of family planning – fertility, conscious conception, pre-natal and post-natal support. To learn more about any of the above areas, or to discuss your unique situation and how Ayurveda can help, schedule a free 30-minute consultation.
Our name, Turiya, is a Sanskrit word meaning “the fourth”. It refers to the fourth state of consciousness - the other three are waking consciousness, dreaming, and dreamless sleep. Turiya is the state beyond consciousness and dreaming, where we are most connected to our highest Self.
Our intention is to guide each client through their own healing journey, so they may access and operate from this enlightened state.

Ayurveda, a Sanskrit word meaning “the science of life,” is India’s 5,000 year old medical system. It is often referred to as Yoga’s “sister science” as both are rooted in the Vedas, the spiritual doctrines of ancient India. Traditionally, Yoga teaches us how to balance our psychological body and our mind. Ayurveda, with its focus on diet, lifestyle, and herbal medicine, teaches us how to balance our physical body.
The overarching goal of Ayurveda is to maintain health in a healthy person and restore health in an unhealthy person, and emphasis is always on prevention.
At Turiya Holistic Health, we work with clients to implement diet and lifestyle changes, herbal medicine, Yoga therapy, aromatherapy, and detoxification when necessary.
Ayurveda is commonly used in cases of digestive disorder, anxiety, depression, weight gain, fatigue, insomnia, and women’s health issues.
What differentiates Ayurveda from other schools of medicine is the concept of the “tri-dosha.” As with other ancient healing systems, Ayurveda is based on element theory and the belief that we are a reflection of nature. Therefore, the five elements that predominate in nature – Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space – also predominate in us. When these elements enter a human form, they create what is called a dosha, or a metabolic force. The doshas govern all physiological and psychological processes in a living being.
There are three doshas – Vata, Pitta, and Kapha – which are known as the “tri-dosha.” All three doshas are present, to a varying degree, in every human being. The predominance of one (or more) of the doshas determines an individual’s unique metabolic type, known in Ayurveda as prakruti. Prakruti is determined at the time of conception and is considered one’s state of perfect balance. However, the doshas are in a constant state of flux being influenced by factors such as our diet, lifestyle, mental attitude, genetics, environment, season, and even time of day. Care must be taken to keep the doshas in balance and as close to prakruti as possible. If this does not happen, the doshas become out of balance and if not tended to, lead to disease.

"I genuinely appreciate and value all I have learned from Molly Culleton, owner of Turiya Holistic Health. I first met Molly, prior to the opening of Turiya, while taking part in a four-part Introduction to Ayurveda class. Inspired by Molly’s knowledge and passion of Ayurveda, I was motivated to choose a program, offered at Turiya, to further my journey. Upon completion of my initial program, I was equipped with a wellness plan covering my diet, daily lifestyle, yoga practice, and meditation. In addition to the programs offered at Turiya, Molly hosts informative events on topics such as nutrition, essential oils, yoga and meditation. Molly has a lovely rapport with individuals of all ages and her focused, organized instruction style creates a comforting relationship."

"Molly was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I finally felt like someone was trying to help me find alternative ways instead of trying to push medication on me. So glad I found Molly! She’s extremely nice, knowledgeable and most of all understanding! She has a calm environment and truly shows she has your best interest in mind."

"I absolutely love Molly and Turiya Holistic Health! I took one of her one on one sessions that was fit and fine-tuned for me. We talked nutrition, daily routine and yoga, just to name a few categories. I would recommend Turiya Holistic Health to anyone and even grabbed a bunch of her business cards to hand out."
