aromatherapist Ylara Khasla | Angela Seng — Reviving Traditional Herbal 
MedicineAngela Seng grew up in Tucson, Arizona, and prior to coming to MUM she 
worked as manager of an essential oil manufacturing company for several years. 
She didn’t consider going to college until she became interested in holistic 
health and sustainability, and MUM was the perfect choice.Angela majored in 
health and physiology and took the Maharishi AyurVeda Wellness Consultant 
track. She also completed a minor in Sustainable Living and graduated this past 
December. To combine her interests in holistic health and sustainability, 
Angela has been focusing on herbalism and ethnobotany. She completed an 
internship with an herbalist in New York, and as her senior project she has 
compiled a booklet on herbal medicine for women.In addition to being able to 
study her favorite subjects at MUM, Angela says she gained a community of 
friends. “When you are here with the collective goal of growing and expanding 
your heart, your relationships go to another level,” she said. Angela also 
appreciates the experience of stress-free studying. “Transcendental Meditation 
has brought me such peace I never realized could exist,” she said.Angela also 
completed internships at MUM with Dr. Sandy Nidich, helping with data analysis 
and the publication of research papers on the effect of the TM® program on 
inmates. This experience sparked her interest in research and the application 
of it to herbalism. She is currently doing another internship on an herb farm 
in Mount Shasta, California.“Angela was one of the top undergraduate students 
in our program,” said Dr. Sandy Nidich, professor of physiology and health. 
“She has a very bright future as an herbalist and medical researcher.”Angela 
has been accepted into an online master’s program at the American College of 
Healthcare Sciences in complementary alternative medicine, where she will be 
concentrating on herbal medicine. In the future she hopes to start a center 
supporting research and education in traditional herbal medicine and plant 
conservation. |
