Testimonials:

"I had been suffering from severe Tinnitus for over a year. My doctor had explained to me that there is no cure for Tinnitus and I got to live with it. My wife organized a private class for me to learn Shanmukhi Mudra. Since I started practicing it, the swooshing of the ears stopped around day number 8. I heard a bird call in a very long time. I am grateful to my wife and the practice". - Felipe Marrero, Tampa, Florida.

​

"Shanmukhi Mudra helped me with my vertigo situation. I was not able to bend forward even a little. Just after two weeks of doing this practice, I gradually started to see a difference. Now after 3 months, I do not experience vertigo anymore. Being an artist, mother, wife, teacher and director of an organization, this vertigo was coming in my way of life. I am truly grateful for his timely teaching, and helping me to keep it up regularly". - Dr. Sarika Singh, Director of Center for Living Bhuddhist Art, India.

Cooking is a fun and fulfilling activity for everyone, especially when shared with family and friends. The joy of tasting the results of your passionate work creates connection. Cooking also enhances focus, coordination, and the ability to care and share responsibility.

Food is more than just fuel; it nourishes our bodies, minds, and energy. What we eat and how we treat our food from the earth significantly impacts our health. Making conscious food choices leads to improved well-being and function.

​

In our cooking classes, we inspire better food choices with simplified, delicious recipes. We'll cook a three-course meal together, exploring the values of food and spices, the six tastes for digestion, and how to create a balanced diet with proteins, vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and carbohydrates. We'll also cover proper liquid and solid proportions for meals, preparing a dish that reflects these principles.

Dance Leela is an opportunity for a community get together to play and dance. It cultivates body-mind coordination, creativity, team work, critical thinking and inclusion. The games we play are of traditional and contemporary. The dance forms are of Indian folk origin which can be danced single, with a partner or as a group. We also use sticks to create rhythmic movements to go with the beat, music and the steps. Since this Indian folk dance form is new in the community, steps are taught meticulously and made easy to follow. Children, adults and seniors can participate.

​

To those who are totally involved, Dance Leela offers so much fun and leaves everyone utterly full of love, light and laughter. It cannot be fully described as it is something to be experienced :)
