The High-Speed Life That Left Me Disconnected
Before yoga, I was fully immersed in the media world—working across television, events, and high-pressure work atmosphere. The adrenaline was constant, the deadlines never-ending. From the outside, my life looked exciting, glamourous & full of opportunities. But deep inside, I was silently struggling.
Since a very young age, I had been struggling with PCOD/PCOS. The symptoms were unpredictable and intense— low haemoglobin levels, weight fluctuations, acne, extreme fatigue, mood swings, irregular cycles, and a constant sense of imbalance. Despite countless visits to doctors and years of allopathic treatments, nothing truly helped. The pills I was prescribed only masked the symptoms. I felt like I was losing touch with my body… and slowly, with myself.
Physically, I was exhausted. Emotionally, I was on edge. Mentally, I was unravelling. And yet—I kept going, because slowing down felt like failure.
When Yoga Found Me (Even Though I Resisted It)
I didn’t fall in love with yoga instantly. Honestly, I thought it was slow and boring. But I showed up anyway. Something in me wanted to try everything before giving up. And then… I met the right teacher.
That changed everything. Under proper guidance, I began to understand the depth of this practice. It wasn’t just about stretching or flexibility—it was a conversation with my breath, a reintroduction to my body, a reunion with my mind. I started feeling good—not just “good” as in healthier, but good as in whole.
Rishikesh & the Turning Point
Driven by curiosity and a longing for deeper understanding, I took a month off work and travelled to Rishikesh—the heartland of yoga. I thought it would be a short pause, a healing break before I returned to my “real” life. But something inside me shifted completely during that time.
I studied traditional yoga, philosophy, breathwork, and anatomy. I woke up with the sun, meditated by the Ganga, and found something I didn’t even know I was looking for—stillness. And slowly, I realized that this was more than a break. This was a beginning.
Before I even consciously decided, I had already made my choice. I never went back to the media world. It was terrifying to leave behind everything I had worked for. But something deeper was calling—and for the first time in years, I had the courage to listen.
Today, My Life Is My Offering
Yoga didn’t just heal my body—it helped me rebuild the relationship I had with myself. My hormones began to balance. My energy returned. I stopped feeling like I was fighting with my own body. I began to understand the language of rest, the strength in surrender, and the power of breath.
More importantly, I found a sense of purpose.
Today, I am a yoga teacher, retreat curator, wellness facilitator, and guide. I work with people from all over the world—helping them reconnect with their bodies, breath, and inner wisdom. Through workshops, retreats, online sessions, and soulful community gatherings, I get to share what has transformed my life.
Yoga gave me back to myself. And now, it’s my life’s work to offer that same possibility to others.
A Few Things I’ve Learned Along the Way:
- Your body is not your enemy—it’s your teacher.
- Healing isn’t linear. But it’s always possible.
- You don’t have to “fit” into yoga. Let yoga meet you as you are.
- Sometimes, the most radical thing you can do is pauseand listen to what your soul is saying.
- It’s never too late to start again.
