Whether you join me for a sound bath or a retreat in Coorg, know that this is a place to drop the mask. My path to becoming a wellness guide was born from a personal need for a nervous system reset. Too often, we approach self-care as just another task on a to-do list, inadvertently adding pressure instead of releasing it. When you step into my sessions—be it private yoga or a multi-day retreat—we don't focus on achieving perfect poses. We focus on the quality of your breath and the safety of the container. I integrate Ayurvedic principles, sound therapy, and mindful movement like Aqua Yoga and Yin to help you reconnect with your body on your own terms. From our rustic farm stays in Coorg to beachside rituals in the Andamans, every space is intentional. My work is not about escaping your reality, but about learning to engage with it while feeling grounded and supported. I invite you to join me in these sanctuaries, not to fix yourself, but to remember who you are when the noise fades. ## About Ashrita I'm Ashrita. I believe healing isn't about being perfect, it’s about feeling safe enough to let go. My retreats are simply spaces for you to arrive, breathe, and remember who you are.
