About

I look at parenting as a journey of self-growth, not just raising kids. For me, it's about working on my own awareness and discipline, knowing that kids learn more from what we do than what we say.

How I Work

• I use yogic parenting tools that fit easily into real family life - nothing fancy, just everyday habits.
• My focus is on parent's self-practice (sadhana), because calm inside shows up outside.
• It’s about gentle, playful ways for young kids - games, stories, even a bit of mantra chanting. No force, no perfection needed.
• Around age 8, we can start simple yoga like Surya Namaskar, easy breathing, and focus-building exercises.

What I Bring to Families

• For teens, I guide emotional regulation for parents and children with specific yoga and breathwork.
• We use sacred sounds and stories (from Gita, Mahabharata) as tools for self-understanding, not as boring lessons.
• I encourage parent-child mindfulness rituals - like simple chanting or playing traditional games - to build connection and cut down on screen time.

Making Home a Safe Base

• I help you create a home environment that feels balanced, simple, and rooted in your own values - even with all the outside pressure.
• We talk about sattvic food, screen moderation, and ways to strengthen the family bond, Indian style.

This isn’t about making a perfect child. I’m here to walk with you as you rediscover your own wholeness, so your child can too.
