Dr. Mansi Vira

My path to holistic medicine began with my own body. Since childhood I was the one with 'peculiar' symptoms — a medical mystery that conventional medicine struggled to explain. At thirteen, I found naturopathic care for the first time, and it changed my life. Not by erasing my symptoms, but by teaching me to listen to my body and heal through mind-body practices, herbal therapy, dietary changes, and lifestyle medicine.

I went on to study Dance and Pre-Medicine with honors at Barnard College, Columbia University, then trained as a Health Coach through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. But my calling was medicine. I earned my Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine degree summa cum laude from the University of Bridgeport, School of Naturopathic Medicine — the only accredited naturopathic medical school on the East Coast — with specialized training in mind-body medicine, women's health, and community medicine.

In January 2020, my health journey took its most profound turn. A near-death experience led to diagnoses of a rare disease and several complex conditions that left me bedridden for six months. The very tools I had spent years studying — energy healing, EFT, Reiki, and the practice of surrendering to the healing process — became my lifeline.

In the summer of 2021, I made a decision: I would heal myself. With the support of my mother, the guidance of my Reiki teacher, and the wisdom of healers like Louise Hay, I began to walk again. Meera's Mantra was born from this journey — each chakra oil crafted and Reiki-blessed as an extension of the healing I have lived. My story is still unfolding, and I am honored to share these tools with you wherever you are in yours.
