A behind-the-scenes look at the process of bringing a vision to life. Working with purpose energizes me more than anything, and I'm so grateful to be living this dream.

A fun video sharing a little bit about me. From my love for food and coffee to my yoga practice and walks in the mountains, these are the things that make me who I am.
A "dopamine menu" of things that bring me joy. Sharing the joy of teaching, spending time with my dog Kiwi, practicing in beautiful spaces, and connecting with nature.
The chaotic but beautiful process of setting up a new space. It's all about letting go of the old to create space for the new, no matter how hard it is.

About My Journey & Life Lately
You won't find perfectly posed, staged yoga photos here. This is the messy, honest stuff—late-night retreat planning, quiet moments with my dog Kiwi, and the reality of balancing a teaching practice with my own need to slow down. If you are looking for a guide who understands that wellness is a practice, not a performance, you are in the right place.
Yoga isn't just about the poses you see in textbooks. For me, it is about finding an anchor in the chaos of life in Delhi and the serene quiet of the Himalayas. I share these snippets—my dopamine menu, my pottery studio visits, and the early mornings at the shala—because I want you to know who is guiding you. Whether it is a Himalayan retreat in Almora or a workshop in Greater Kailash, my approach stays the same: we focus on showing up as you are. Burnout is real, and digital overload is standard, so I build my practice around listening to your body rather than chasing a shape. This gallery is a peek into how I live what I teach, from my Mysore-style training to the simple joys like a quiet morning with my pet. If you resonate with this, let's talk about finding your own rhythm.

I’m Sonakshi, and I’m just a person navigating the same chaos you are. I run The Shala to give you a space where you can actually breathe, rather than just chasing the perfect pose.
