YOGA for the SOUL Retreats

Christmas Day invites us into stillness, reflection, and connection.

Beyond the busyness, it is a reminder of our shared humanity and the quiet power of kindness, presence, and care for one another.

A day to soften, to listen more deeply, and to meet ourselves and others with gentleness.

May today offer moments of peace, warmth, and sincere connection, however and wherever you are spending it.

Wishing you a calm and meaningful Christmas Day. 💖

With love,
Chetana

Dear friends,

As we move into the festive season, my heart has been reflecting on the importance of community and how we show up for one another.

Recent events close to home have been deeply unsettling and have reminded many of us how fragile life can feel, and how much our words, actions, and attitudes matter. In times like these, kindness is not a small thing. Neither is acceptance, understanding, or choosing to meet one another with care rather than judgement.

For those who have been affected directly or indirectly by what has happened in Bondi, my heartfelt wish is that this period brings moments of gentleness, support, and some sense of ease, even amidst what you may be carrying.

This season, my wish is that we all find moments to slow down, soften, and remember our shared humanity. That we look out for one another, hold space for differences, and extend compassion even when it feels challenging.

I wish you and your loved ones a festive season filled with warmth, connection, and a sense of belonging.

With care,
Chetana 🙏🏻

Happy Saturday everyone,

Do you ever feel stuck? Like you're moving through your days on autopilot, carrying a little weight in your mind, or just longing to feel clearer, calmer, and more connected to purpose?

During COVID, I created a course that weaves a reflection process known as SWAN (Strengths, Weaknesses, Ambitions, Needs) into a complete 7-class yoga and meditation journey.

It includes pranayama, mantra, and yoga nidra, with the intention to help people ground, reflect, and get clear on what truly matters.

✨ I've also brought in some mental fitness tools at the start to add clarity and depth to the whole self-inquiry process — all leading toward forming a strong Sankalpa (personal resolution) for 2026, rooted in self-awareness and aligned intention.

Right now, it's just $47 with lifetime access because I want it to be accessible, especially as we step into not just a new year but a new decade (yep, numerology fans, this is a big one 😄).

Now is the perfect time to give yourself the gift of clarity, direction, and inner peace.

If you’re craving a reset mentally, emotionally, or spiritually, this might be the pause you’ve been waiting for. 💛

What actually happens on a yoga and sacred sound retreat?

It’s not just yoga.
It’s not just a break.

It’s a full-body, soul-deep reset guided by sacred sound, stillness, and connection.

Imagine starting your day with gentle movement, immersing yourself in the healing power of Nāda Yoga (the yoga of sound), releasing stress through breathwork, and ending your day surrounded by like-minded people on a similar journey.

This isn’t about escaping life.

It’s about returning to it with more clarity, calm, and energy.

If your nervous system has been asking for stillness, this is your invitation.

Lately, I’ve been paying even closer attention to my breath.

In the busier moments of the day, I notice how simply choosing to breathe more steadily brings me back to myself. One deeper inhale, a longer exhale, and my whole system starts to settle.

After chanting, or resting in Yoga Nidra, the breath feels spacious and natural. My body softens. My mind quietens. There is a sense of being held from within.

I am reminded, again and again, that presence lives inside each breath. Not in the next thing on the list, but right here.

May this be your reminder to pause, breathe, and give yourself a moment of stillness today.

Warmly,
Chetana

🌸 🎶 An Afternoon of Sound & Consciousness 🎶 🌸

I’m so looking forward to spending an afternoon with my very first Nāda Yoga teacher, Anandra, as she shares The Sanskrit Story of Creation and Consciousness — a journey through sacred sound, mantra, and meaning.

If you’ve ever felt the power of vibration to shift your energy, this one’s for you.

Expect a rich, heart-opening blend of sound, wisdom, and kirtan led by Geeti & Gyan.

🎶 Watch the short video and discover what this workshop is all about:

It’s going to be a magical, soul-stirring afternoon — I can’t wait.

Hope to see you there. (Oh, don't dilly dally, numbers will be capped).

As the world feels uncertain and heavy at times, Diwali reminds us of a simple truth: the light we seek outside must first be kindled within.

When we tend to our inner flame — through presence, compassion, stillness, and clarity — the way we see and experience the world begins to change. Our outer reality is a projection of the state of our inner world.

This Diwali, may we each choose to clear the shadows of doubt, fear, and separation. May we honour the radiance of peace and love that lives in us all.

The greatest offering we can give is to become a light for ourselves and others. 🌟

Wishing you a Diwali filled with stillness, strength, and a spark that continues to shine long after the lamps are extinguished.

With warmth,
Chetana x
