## About Therapeutic Yoga for Mind & Body

I don't believe in one-size-fits-all sequences because your body and stress levels change every single day. Whether you are dealing with chronic lower back stiffness, struggling to shut your mind off for sleep, or recovering from a hormonal imbalance, we prioritize nervous system regulation over intensity. My sessions use props like bolsters, blankets, and wall ropes to ensure you can hold poses long enough to actually release deep tension, rather than just stretching the surface.

### A Different Approach to Healing
Standard gym yoga often misses the mark when you are dealing with pain, burnout, or high cortisol levels. My therapeutic approach focuses on *Sthira* (steadiness) and *Sukha* (ease). This is about giving your body the space to reset, not pushing it to a limit that causes further inflammation.

### What We Address
*   **Back & Spine Health:** We use sequences like Cat-Cow and restorative variations to manage lower back pain and spinal stiffness. It is about mobility, not acrobatics.
*   **Mental Health & Anxiety:** If you struggle with depression, racing thoughts, or burnout, we work with *Nadi Shodhana* (alternate nostril breathing) and Yoga Nidra to down-regulate your nervous system.
*   **Hormonal & Pelvic Health:** For those dealing with PCOS or postnatal recovery, we focus on Yin poses to release the pelvic floor and regulate hormones naturally.

### The Process
I always start with a brief check-in. If you arrive exhausted, we skip the dynamic flow and move straight into restorative postures. We use props to keep you safe—especially for C-section recovery or existing injuries. 

Whether you join me at my studio in Challaghatta, Bengaluru, or connect via Zoom, the focus remains the same: healing from within. You aren't just learning a posture; you are learning how to be gentle with yourself. If you are looking for a space where you can show up exactly as you are—tired, stressed, or stiff—and leave feeling a little lighter, you are in the right place.

## About Aarthi Padmanabhan

I am Aarthi, and I founded Padma Yoga Academy after realizing that healing, for me, was messy and non-linear. I have walked through the corporate burnout, the injuries, and the life transitions, so I teach from that lived experience rather than just a textbook. My goal is to hold space for you to land softly, breathe, and find your center again.
