From Yoga to BodyWise Mind: A Journey of Transformation and Rediscovery

Welcome to "Through My Colored Lens," where I share my personal views shaped by my life experiences. Over the years, my perspective has evolved as I've encountered new experiences and people. While these are my reflections, I understand that your views may differ, and I respect that.



Hello, dear readers! I know it’s been a while since I posted here on Yoga My Love. Life has kept me busy with some incredible experiences and learning—so much more than just yoga! Today, I'm excited to introduce a new chapter in my journey and launch a new project: BodyWise Mind. 

From Engineering to Enlightenment: The Shift Towards Mindfulness and Yoga

Life’s journey took me from a small town in India, where I broke through patriarchal norms, all the way to the serene landscapes of Australia. This journey could easily be the plot of a cross-cultural film, complete with unexpected twists and turns. While I wore many hats—engineer, global traveller, spouse, and a soul on a deeper quest for meaning—my search for purpose remained constant. Eventually, I found myself drawn to the world of mindfulness and yoga, which led to opening my own studio. However, while yoga brought me peace, I sensed there were deeper layers still waiting to be explored.


Expanding Horizons: Exploring Therapeutic Approaches Beyond Yoga

As I delved deeper into mindfulness, I felt inspired to explore a range of therapeutic modalities. Studies in somatics, brainspotting, clinical hypnosis, and strategic psychotherapy offered me fresh insights, yet each left me with a lingering question: What’s the next step on this journey towards deeper healing and empowerment?


A Fortunate Discovery: How SMGI® Entered My Life

My answer arrived in an unexpected way. During a visit, my brother gifted me a session in Somatic Mindful Guided ImageryI® (SMGI®). What began as a serendipitous gift quickly became a transformative journey, reshaping both my inner and outer worlds in ways I never imagined. SMGI® integrates the conscious and subconscious, blending elements of mindfulness, breathwork, hypnosis, parts work, and indigenous wisdom into a deceptively simple yet profoundly powerful approach.


Finding My Calling: SMGI® as the Heart of My Life’s Work

Among all the therapeutic modalities I encountered, SMGI® stood out as the one most aligned with my vision. SMGI® empowers individuals to connect with their inner wisdom and navigate their own unique paths toward healing and transformation. it's not a doctor-patient relationship and it doesn't make me feel that something is wrong and needs to be fixed. It validates where I am and helps understand and undo the past and create a new future path.


Embrace the Journey: Sharing SMGI® with the World

I am thrilled to bring SMGI® to the world through BodyWise Mind and I look forward to sharing this journey with all of you. If you’re ready to explore the power of SMGI®, I invite you to watch the videos in here and connect with me through BodyWise Mind.
