Christie, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today? From the age of 4, when asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was always the same, that I wanted to be a healer. During high school, I focused heavily on pre-med preparatory classes and landed my first job at age 16 caring for an elderly woman with terminal cancer. I loved making people feel better physically and emotionally. By age 24 I graduated from California State University of San Bernardino with a Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing and worked in the Intensive Care Unit at St. Bernadine Medical Center. Soon after, I graduated as a Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science with highest honors from Loma Linda University. I felt like I was at the peak of my success working my dream job in the Emergency Department. Something was still missing. Click here to view and read full article

Testimonials
"After attending one of Christie's yoga meditation classes about 5 years ago, I realized that Christie has a special gift and very personal way to deliver it. I had taken other yoga/Meditation classes but wound up feeling unsatisfied, short changed. Christie is open and comes from the school of thought that yoga IS for everyBODY. I loved that, as yoga had previously intimidated me. I thought only slim gals with firm bodies were allowed to do yoga! I felt at home - supported and understood - with Christie's style of teaching. She's reliable, compassionate and beautifully articulate. I'm grateful to Christie for providing me with a firm and compassionate foundation for understanding yoga and my body. Presently, I'm enrolled in Christie's Yoga Alliance Certified School for Yoga Teacher Training. Tickled beyond measure about it." Rebecca Reyes Yucaipa, Ca "Dr. Smirl is an amazing teacher and healer. Her energy is warm & effectively grounding. I have learned so much from her and continue to do so as she offers so many different classes and lessons. I am excited to grow and learn more. Thank you Dr. for seeing the light in me and helping me in my journey with your great teachings!" Andrea Callejas "I have had the wonderful fortune to meet and work with Christie through two invaluable means: Ayurveda and Reiki. As my Ayurvedic practitioner Christie has helped me understand my body and through her I have learned how to nurture and heal it through foods, pranayama, and asana. I successfully completed her Reiki I course and have begun my journey learning about the chakra system and now have another wonderful tool at my disposal to help with healing. I am forever grateful for her presence in my life" Sharon P. "I've learned so very much from Christie over the last few years. After attending many guided meditation and gentle yoga classes which encouraged me to practice daily meditation my life has more balance and peace. I'm also very glad I've taken the Reiki 1 and 2 training. Learning this practice allows me to heal myself (arthritis pain) and others. Christie is a gifted and talented teacher and practitioner. You will experience multiple benefits from taking any classes she offers." Janice Taylor "Christie is a beautiful soul and a delight to work with. I highly recommend experiencing her peaceful energy whether you listen to her music, take a class from her or have an Ayurvedic consultation. She is truly an angel on earth." TW "I initially met Christie when I came to her for an Ayurvedic consultation. I was having some stomach issues and knew that traditional medicine could not help me as they would very likely prescribe me an anti-acid pill and send me home. This would not do, so I decided to give Ayurveda a try. Christie was knowledgeable, very clear and concise in her prescription, and could zero in precisely on my condition and the remedies to help me. I followed the protocols she gave me exactly and within a brief period began to make great progress towards healing fully from my ailments. She is a true healer. Christie is a warm devoted and encouraging teacher. She is incredibly knowledgeable in Ayurveda, Sanskrit and yoga. Her Kirtan sessions create welcoming and meditative space and a sense of community. She is a wealth of knowledge and I have learned so much already. She gives her students encouragement and opportunities for professional development, which is something most yoga programs do not really do. She provides a safe place and allows us to take a risk towards our professional goals. I am so happy to be a part of the Ayurvedic Yoga Awakening Program. It is a wonderful program she has created."
