My passion is to live as authentic & true to myself as possible. It is my hope that by honoring my own mind, body & spirit I will inspire others to do the same.

Ayurveda Health Counselor & Intuitive Healer

Hi! My name is Sydney Decker. I am an Ayurveda Health Counselor & Intuitive Healer. I began my own journey of healing back in 2012 when I began awakening to new ways to care and love myself. I struggled with Depression, anxiety & agoraphobia for most of my adolescence. I was placed on medications that I was told would “fix” the problem. However, I never felt that taking a pill was the answer. So while studying Psychology in College I began exploring my own mind, body and spirit. I learned about the power of Gratitude & Meditation. I began practicing these tools in my life and I saw a major shift in my well-being. I decided that it was necessary to start investigating my struggles and pain. This lead me on a journey of journaling, therapy and confronting my inner darkness which brought me to connecting with my inner light.

After College I gained a position as an Ayurveda Technician at the Ayurveda Integrative Wellness Institute which at the time was located in Pittsburgh, PA. I fell in love with the Healing Wisdom of Ayurveda as I saw it change peoples lives. I went on to study with Dr. Lina Thakar through her Academy of Ayurveda and became an Ayurveda Health Counselor. I was one of the first individuals to take the National exam for Ayurveda Health Counselors . After completing my certification I became Dr. Lina Thakar’s Clinical Wellness Assistant where I worked directly with clients in her clinic. In 2017 I decided to embark on a new journey and started my own healing practice— Inner Element Wellness.

My healing philosophy uses a combination of Ayurveda and Spiritual practices to help clients connect with their own inner light and align their mind, body and spirit together. When we connect to our inner light we live empowered. We feel free, peaceful, balanced and in harmony with ourselves and all of life. I not only teach my healing philosophy but I live by it! Embarking on this journey to discovering my own Inner Element has transformed my life in so many wonderful ways.

The last 5 years of working in the healing arts has helped me to fine tune my healing gifts and has deepened and strengthened my abilities as a healer. I now support my clients in an energetic and intuitive aspect of their healing. Supporting them in releasing blocked energies, healing heavy emotional burdens, and manifesting their inner heart’s desires. I also enjoy assisting my clients in fine tuning their own inner gifts and stepping fully into their authentic selves.

It is my honor to help you connect with your inner light and share with you the power and wisdom that Ayurveda has to offer this world.
