About this Retreat
Hi, I’m Hari. I’ve been practising yoga, ayurveda, meditation and massage for decades. I have been fortunate to have had the blessings and teachings from Shri Shivakrupananda Swami in meditation, Anne Jones in energy healing, Shri Avdhoot Shivanand and Ishan in ShivYog along with childhood teachings in Bhagawad Gita through the Swadhyay movement.
I have worked with various modalities and techniques in spiritual healing since childhood and started Reiki under the guidance of Smt Arti Seth in 2008 in India, and qualified with the Somananda Tantra School in Estonia as an Advanced Tantric Massage Therapist. I have also been accredited by the FHT and CMA through Tri-Dosha as an Ayurvedic Massage Therapist. I am also studying my Masters in Psychology of Mental Health and Wellbeing.
I am a gifted healer, and I pride myself on giving my all to every client who trusts me with their journey. Recognising blockages in chakras and cleansing them is something that comes naturally to me, and there are many ways I work to balance the yin and yang within my clients.
The environment I create and work within is safe, supportive and confidential, free from any discrimination based on gender or sexuality. I always prioritise my clients’ comfort, ensuring a good flow of communication at all times throughout the treatment. Tantric massage treatments vary from client to client, as everyone’s requirements are completely unique.
Since childhood I’ve felt drawn to spirituality, and I’ve developed a strong sense of being and self. I pride myself on being a positive person in all that I do– from music, art and creativity to fitness. If you want to know more about me or you feel drawn to reach out, get in touch and let’s talk about how I can facilitate your own healing journey.
I am passionate about mindfulness and I am dedicated to supporting individuals to lead a more mindful, calmer and happier way of life.
Through mindful meditation practices I teach you how to feel less stressed, anxious and overwhelmed and how to live life in the present moment.
In 2013 I began practicing mindful meditation as a way of helping me to manage chronic anxiety and my busy and stressful lifestyle as a specialist neurological NHS physiotherapist.
In addition to my physiotherapy career in 2016 I started my teacher training with the Mindfulness Association UK, London.
After 2 years of training and a week-long retreat (being assessed by Buddhist monks in Scotland) I qualified in 2018 when My Kind of Mind was created, and I have since been teaching the Mindfulness Association 8 Week Mindfulness
Based Living Course (MBLC). I also run retreat days, drop-in sessions, workshops, offer one to one coaching and train NHS cancer care nurses in the use of mindfulness techniques. In addition to supporting different healthcare charities such as Bladder Health
UK, The Menstrual Health Project and Let's Talk about Loss.
I continue to work for the NHS now in a student education leadership role with a passion for student and staff wellbeing.
I have always been dedicated to continual professional development and recently completed a diploma in transformational and heart-based practices and am now an accredited intuitive coach being able to further guide you
on your mindful journey of self-transformation.
I am a certified Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) known as “tapping” practitioner, a beautifully simple yet very effective mindful way of releasing stuck emotions which aids healing and recovery of mind, body and soul.
Mindfulness has transformed my life. I feel happier, calmer, more focused and feel like I’m really living life to the full. I’m kinder to myself and definitely better at self-care!
I really enjoy the sense of community that mindfulness brings and I look forward to sharing the many incredible benefits of all that I offer with you very soon.
Love always,
