Surviving Domestic Violence and Thriving

Dr. Suparna Saha graduated from Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California and has a foundation in Molecular and Cell Biology from her undergraduate studies at Carnegie Mellon University. She completed a General Surgery Internship at UCLA and trained in Anesthesia at Baylor. 

As a physician, Dr. Saha spent close to 10 years practicing Personal Injury, serving as the Medical Director to a Medical Spa, providing Expert Witness testimony as a patient advocate, and fighting for lowering healthcare bills for patients as a Physician Advisor to United Healthcare. Currently Dr. Saha engages her medical fund of knowledge by serving as Chief Medical Officer to Apelex World. The functional assessment tools presented in her book were created from countless personal experiences, from those of friends and family, and from those of the close to 1000 victims or patients she has come in contact with during her medical career and as a volunteer for domestic violence and sexual assault organizations.

On a personal level, Dr. Saha is a survivor of domestic violence and sexual assault. In her journey of healing, she turned to the practice of yoga and meditation. She lived for some time at the Sivananda Yoga Farm and Ashram where she became certified in Vedic Astrology and studied the art of Ayurvedic medicine. She has also become a yoga instructor. 

Her passion for art and design coupled with her newfound intellectual curiosity about chakras, a fundamental concept in the practice of yoga and physics, led Dr. Saha to co-found her clothing line Yoga N Chill, established in 2018. Dr. Saha's primary passion project prior to www.SpiritualDrip.guru, Yoga N Chill, was intended to embody the spirit of a modern, healthy lifestyle movement. The chakra-inspired designs for the activewear and bikini collections featured at Yoga N Chill were intended to spread awareness of yoga and the chakra system to promote balance, health, and overall well being.

Dr. Saha has been spiritual at heart and from as young as age 5 when she was initiated into the culture of Kathak Dance, one of India's most well preserved spiritual art forms. Dr. Saha has been a lifelong student of one of Pundit Chitresh Das and has performed as a semi-professional Kathak Dancer in numerous venues including The Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. Her current passion project is a spin off Yoga N Chill: www.SpiritualDrip.guru. On this site, Dr. Saha discusses topics pertaining specifically to spirituality and Vedic philosophy.
