Meet Victoria Larkins

Victoria Larkins is a Vedic Meditation teacher and the founder of Nowphoria—a space for being. Her teaching draws from over a decade of study in the Vedas, the Siddhis, and the full spectrum of the yogic system. She apprenticed with her teacher for ten years, traveling regularly to India throughout her twenties to study Vedic Meditation, breathwork, and multiple yoga lineages, including Kriya, Vinyasa, Hatha, Naad, Yoga Nidra, Restorative, and Yin. Meanwhile, she studied somatic psychology and neuroscience at Naropa University, integrating this with ancient knowledge to offer a grounded framework for nervous system stability, creativity, and flow. These years shaped her approach: a system that honors both transcendence and integration, stillness and activity.

In 2023, Victoria founded Nowphoria in Venice, California, as both a local space and an online community bridging meditation and action. Nowphoria offers courses, retreats, and weekly group meditations that establish stillness as the foundation for transformation. By connecting insights from neuroscience, wave science, and the yogic system, Nowphoria cultivates nervous system stability as the ground for creativity, connection, and conscious living.

Victoria also teaches at Open Studio in Venice, CA. Her intention is to offer pathways into greater connection with the ever-expanding present moment.

“Our hearts are always guiding the way. Sometimes we find ourselves in the flow of expansion, aligned with our truth. And, sometimes the noise is too loud to hear the clarity of love’s direction. It’s human to forget. It’s also entirely possible to come back, again and again. This is the heart’s dance. We are meant to oscillate inward and out.”
