I’m Andrea Bachman, And This Is My Dharma

Andrea Catherine’s passion is cultivating communities of fearless self-love and self-care. Her ever-evolving work is sparked and sustained by people eager to transform their lives to flourish as grounded, joyful, and at ease, to be at home in their health. After hours (as a Hatha Yoga Instructor and Ayurvedic Health Counselor), Andrea and her pup, Porter, get lost on Montana road and find themselves swimming in reservoirs, hearing live music, and smiling at the mountains.
