Who I am and the tools I use as a Sleep Coach.

I was born in and I grew up in Mumbai, India.

 My love for chaos and my can do attitude stayed with me as I accepted a business school scholarship at HEC Paris and made a new home for myself in Paris.

My early career experience working with startups, large corporations, and governments equips me to tackle the challenges encountered by professionals in high-pressure settings.

How do I approach sleep coaching for adults ?

Tools that have helped my clients fall asleep, stay asleep and manage their energy levels during the day:

  • The first step in restoring sleep is to reconnect with your body’s natural sleep wake cycle and to make it your ally.

    Ayurveda is an ancient holistic healing system that originated in India over 3,000 years ago. It gives us an easy understanding of:

    • How our body is designed to behave over a 24 hour period.

    • How diet and lifestyle support restorative sleep. 

    I work with you to embrace this lifestyle one step at a time. You will find joy, connection and your appetite for life. 

    2017 Nobel prize winner in Medicine Jeffrey C and his peers validated Ayurvedic wisdom and the importance of circadian rhythms for overall health.

  • If I am tired I will sleep - True or False?
    True, BUT…

    Being tired alone will not help you rest if your brain is on a high alert.

    A consistent practice of Yogic Breathwork and restorative postures is effective in nudging your brain into a state of relaxation—which is key to restful sleep. 

    This is a bottom-up approach. We engage with the body to ease the unrest of the mind. 

  • This is better than a power nap! 

    Yoga Nidra is a state of relaxation bordering between sleep and awakeness. In this state of deep rest, your body begins to heal from fatigue and regain energy.

    When done right, just 20 minutes of Yoga Nidra equal a full cycle of sleep. This makes Yoga Nidra my clients’ favourite recovery strategy.  

    In a state of relaxation you are receptive to new suggestions and we rewire the narrative that is keeping your brain on high alert. Thus accelerating your recovery from insomnia.  

    Neuroscience recognises this phenomenon as neuroplasticity—our ability to transform the brain, to create new beliefs and habits. Yoga Nidra is a powerful tool in managing stress, anxiety, depression, and is used by the American army to treat Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in veterans.  

  • Is the fear of not getting enough sleep, being exhausted and therefore underperforming keeping you up?

    Fear maintains your brain on a high alert and the harder you try to sleep, the more elusive restorative sleep is. If you are here, you may know that already. 

    Guided mindfulness meditations I have designed are all about processing fear and letting go of effort to sleep. My work is rooted in the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh (a buddhist monk and Nobel Peace Prize nominee). 

    Incorporating a few minutes of mindfulness in their daily routine has helped my clients fall asleep, stay asleep and manage their energy levels during the day.
