In today’s fast-paced world, finding peace can feel like a challenge. "Mindfulness Through Poetry and Prose" offers a unique approach to inner calm by combining the soothing power of language with practical mindfulness techniques. In this class, I combine the art of literature with mindfulness practices, creating a peaceful space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.

Through carefully chosen poems and excerpts, you’ll explore themes like gratitude, acceptance, and self-compassion. Each session includes guided mindfulness exercises, reflective writing prompts, and group discussions that foster personal growth and emotional well-being.

This class is perfect for anyone looking to:

Relieve stress and find inner calm.
Develop self-awareness and emotional resilience.
Engage with poetry and prose in a thoughtful, meaningful way.
Express themselves through reflective writing and discussion.
No prior experience in poetry or mindfulness is required—just an open mind and a willingness to explore with a yogi and literature graduate.

Let’s go beyond what you see on social media.

Grounding asanas (postures)
Cleansing kriyas
Healing mudras
Powerful pranayama (breathwork)
Stillness through meditation
You'll leave each session feeling refreshed, relaxed, and energized—ready to carry that peace into your daily life.

🧘‍♂️ I work with international students, professionals, and individuals across the globe—online and in business organisations. My teaching draws from diverse traditions including Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Himalayan, and Iyengar yoga.
