Dana is the Buddhist practice of generosity, or more generally speaking, the inclination to give without expecting anything in return.

At Essential Health, we believe in generosity as a pillar of the path to freedom and peace. We practice Dana through our sliding scale pricing, as an invitation to expand the reach of our wellness community.
