I’m Jacob Davis. Located in Burbank California, I have a passion for helping others.
I’ve loved helping people for as long as I can remember, and had my first encounter with Eastern philosophies when I was 13 years old, after being introduced to Yogananda’s teachings at SRF temple.
I was hooked, and spent the next few years studying his teachings and philosophies alongside my highschool curriculum and participated in school athletics teams such as Football, Basketball, Track, Swim, Water Polo, and Hip-Hop Dance.
After leaving high school I joined the U.S. Navy where I served as a Operations Specialist for 4 years, helping our boat and crew navigate the seas. During my tenure I was stationed in Norfolk, Virginia and set out to sea on several occasions in maritime defense operations. It wasn’t always easy but it gave me a great sense of pride to serve my country, and duty to my fellow sailors.
Upon leaving the Navy I moved to Naples Florida where I attended Bonita Springs School of Massage and graduated as a Certified Massage Therapist. I then moved to Southern California where I attended the Southern California University of Health Sciences and graduated as an Ayurvedic Wellness Educator and am currently working towards being certified as an Ayurvedic Practitioner.
Today, I’m the founder of Veda Vida, where we work to develop and employ methods of massage and bodywork that are rooted in the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda.
