Before I teach, I get on my mat to shed the layers the day has put on me, not to achieve a perfect shape. You will notice that my focus on the mat is the same as it is in my classes—using breath, bandhas, and a steady gaze to turn the body inward, moving from a workout to a state of stillness. ### What is my Sādhanā? My Sādhanā—my personal practice—is my anchor. It started when I was still in the corporate grind, looking for a way to cope with the noise of the world. It wasn't about flexibility then, and it isn't now. It is about how I use my exhalations, how I hold my bandhas, and how I allow my body to release stored stress. ### The Purpose of the Practice Many of us come to yoga looking for a 'stretch' or 'strength', but those are just byproducts. The real work happens when we stop trying to 'achieve' a pose and start allowing the body to be charged with energy. - **Ashtanga:** I use this for discipline and internal heat, keeping my mind focused. - **Hatha & Restorative:** On days when I need to slow down, I turn to Hatha, Kriyas, and moon day sequences to regulate my nervous system. - **Emotional Release:** I hold poses like forward folds and deep hip openers to process things the mind is holding onto. ### Moving Beyond the Physical My home shala in Panchsheel Park is designed to be a sanctuary for this exact kind of work. It is quiet, dimly lit, and free from the distraction of modern gym mirrors. Whether I am practicing Vinyasa flows or sitting in meditation, the goal is always the same: to remember who I am before the world happened to me. When you join my sessions, you are not just getting a teacher; you are getting someone who lives this process every single day. We don't just do gymnastics; we practice yoga to build a tool that helps us navigate life with more balance. ## About SharanYoga I’m Sharan, and for me, yoga is a daily reset—not a job. I share what I’ve learned on my own mat, from years of corporate stress to finding my stillness, right here in my Panchsheel Park home shala.
