About Holistic Healing Workshops & Retreats
I know what it’s like to feel lost or worn out, because I’ve been there myself. My own ups and downs led me to explore healing that goes deeper than just the body. For me, it’s about tending to the heart, mind, and spirit together.
What I Offer
- I create safe, no-judgement spaces where you can slow down, reconnect, and just be yourself.
- My workshops and retreats aren’t about fixing you. I’m here to walk with you, sharing tools that help you heal from within.
- Healing isn’t a straight line. Some days are tough, some days feel lighter. That’s normal.
How We Can Work Together
- Healing Workshops: Short sessions (a few hours) for deep rest and practical tools. Includes sound bath healing sessions with Tibetan and crystal bowls, meditative art therapy workshops (no art skills needed), and guided breathwork classes like Qi Gong and Pranayama.
- Immersive Retreats: Multi-day nature-based wellness retreats in places like Coorg and Mudumalai. Expect sunrise yoga, sound healing under the stars, forest walks, and wholesome food. These are for when you need a real break from city life and screens.
- Online Spaces: Virtual bootcamps and themed meditations, so you can join from home. We do special sessions around the new and full moon for intention setting and letting go.
Who This Is For
If you’re feeling emotionally drained, mentally tired, or just disconnected from yourself, you’ll fit right in. Amma, appa, busy professionals, anyone who feels unheard or overwhelmed - this space is for you.
You don’t have to do this alone. I’m here to hold space for you, one step at a time.

My Story
Hey, I’m Aarthi, founder of Padma Yoga Academy. Used to be all about the corporate grind, HR, meetings - but life had other plans. After a tough divorce, single parenting, and a few stumbles in the wellness world, I found my anchor in yoga and healing. Not just yoga, though - after an injury, I added strength training, sound healing, mandala art. Healing for me is messy, honest, sometimes awkward, always real. That’s what I bring to every class.
My Work
What we offer - Pre and postnatal yoga classes, menopause emotional support, fertility yoga sessions, sound healing for women, art therapy workshops, and kids yoga.
Real transformation - Our sessions are about evolving from within, not perfect poses. Come as you are, leave lighter.
Mind-body healing - We mix yoga, breathwork, sound meditation, mandala art therapy workshop, all to help you find real balance.
Support at every stage - From fertility to menopause, we’re here for every chapter—no judgment, just support.
Community matters - Join us online or offline for bootcamps, workshops, healing circles. We grow best together.
