Last week, I got an opportunity to connect with village-level women entrepreneurs in Kerala, India, through the Digital Beti project of Government of India. This opportunity led me to delve a little deeper into the reality of the digital gender gap worldwide, especially in India. Read More

At the start of 2017, I quit my last full time corporate job at Amazon as a digital marketing professional. I decided to switch to remote working in my then core area of expertise and became a Digital Nomad. Read More

From the Wanderer days before Explorations began. 😃

Missing the hills and the Sangha.

Kashmir Great Lakes trek! Four years since my second week long trek to the seven great lakes of Kashmir. I remember feeling exhausted mostly through my first trek two years before this when I was working full time in my corporate job and before starting on the yoga path. I really wished I was more healthy, so I could soak in the beauty that was all around. This trek happened after I quit Amazon and three retreats after I founded @yogasalain. I found myself healthier, happier and as we began the trek, the trek leader invited me to lead the warm up prep and unwinding for each day with yoga! It was the coolest (and literally coldest lol) experience to journey with this 20 members odd group from around the world, trekking 16-18 kms daily covering valleys of flowers, bouldering, scaling peaks in snow and rain and feeling the fear every time the feet slips on a downhill climb, learning to trust each other to hold on to, trusting the bhūmi to support the next step, looking up at the starry cloudless sky at night and watching the Milky Way (ākāsa ganga) from 16K feet high....for me the entire experience was yoga in action. Each challenge and learning bringing alive the Yogasutras and Sānkhya view of the world. Watching change (parināma) and the underlying gati (direction), niyati (meaningfulness), and sanghtana (interdependence).

Excited to announce the second edition of Rāga Yoga Retreat with @aartisivakumar at @deerparkinstitute in Bir Billing, Himachal Pradesh. Join us to explore yoga, experience nature, and enjoy soulful music. For more details, click on link in bio.

Onam Ashamsakal - Om vāmana mūrtaye nama:

The word Yoga usually brings up an image of someone doing asana-pranayama or someone sitting for meditation.āsanā and prāṇāyāmā brings mastery over our body and breath. Meditation happens as a result of the process of preparing the mind and focusing it on a specific object. A key component of Yoga that is often missed out between these two aspects is that of “inner work” i.e. discovering a way in which we can observe the inner workings of our mind and ask the question “In doing what I am doing what am I really doing?”. This is also referred to as antaraṅga sādanā.
