About Leilani Jeraffi

Leilani’s journey into Ayurveda health began during her career as a ballerina. While she loved the art form, a lack of understanding of her own body's unique needs eventually led to systemic health challenges, including amenorrhea, chronic stress, exhaustion, and digestive imbalances.

In her search for sustainable healing, she discovered Ayurveda. The results were profound, providing her with practical, time-tested tools to restore her health and establish a balanced lifestyle. This personal transformation inspired Leilani to formally study Ayurveda and dedicate her career to guiding others toward their own self understanding.

Today, she practices as an Ayurvedic Practitioner in Santa Monica, certified through the Kerala Ayurveda Academy, and is a Professional Member of the California Association of Ayurvedic Medicine (CAAM). Her clinical approach is focused on helping clients achieve lasting physical harmony and mental clarity through individualized, classical and traditional Ayurvedic methods.

Complementing her Ayurvedic clinical work, Leilani is also a 500-hour certified yoga teacher from the LAAIC school by Talia Sutra. She teaches “Love and All Is Coming" classes, rooted in the traditional Ghos and Ashtanga Vinyasa lineages, helping students build concentration, resilience, and inner peace.

  • Leilani is a NAMA-Certified Ayurvedic Practitioner (National Ayurvedic Medical Association), deeply grateful to have studied under Dr. Jayarajan and the distinguished faculty at Kerala Ayurveda Academy. Her clinical training includes internships in Milpitas, California; The Health Village in Kerala; and Ayurvedagram in Bangalore. These are experiences that deeply shaped her understanding of classical, lineage-based Ayurveda.

    She is currently an AAP student (formerly known as Ayurvedic Doctor Program) with Kerala Ayurveda Academy, completing her advanced clinical training, specializing in Women’s Health.

  • Certificate of completion for Kerala Ayurveda Academy awarded to Leilani Jeraffi, signed by officials, acknowledging 910 hours of training as an Ayurvedic Practitioner, dated October 20, 2024.
