KARUNA (kuh-roo-na)

Compassionate action to alleviate suffering
Karuna is the Sanskrit name chosen and given to Stacy from the Nosara Yoga Institute at her 500 hour graduation in the Spring of 2009.

"It is my hope and intention that through massage therapy, Pranassage® and yoga instruction that I am doing the work of Karuna. I truly receive joy when relief, relaxation and calm are in the eyes of someone I have worked with." ~ Stacy Seebart
