アートとの旅

As your India ayurveda retreat organizer and guide Shalini-sensei is such a warm and sincere host. Every day, she would check in with us to make sure we were doing well, and | could really feel her genuine heart in wanting to understand each of our needs. It was so easy to trust her because she truly cares about everyone. Her explanations of Ayurveda were so interesting that they made me want to dive even deeper into it! Also, having her by my side during our local outings made me feel so safe and relaxed—I| knew that with her, everything would be okay. She even took the time to listen to all our wishes for sightseeing, making every moment of the trip so much fun. I'm so grateful for her kindness! I

Shalini was the very first person | ever went to for a healing session, and | still hold so much gratitude for that experience. She created a space where | felt deeply safe, seen, and held; a space where | could truly pour my heart out without fear or judgment. What started as a healing session became so much more. She later became my teacher when | attended my first healing workshop, gently introducing me to this path and holding my hand as | slowly began paving my own way forward. Her energy carries this beautiful balance of warmth, wisdom, and lightness; like a loving teacher who makes you feel safe while also making the journey feel joyful and human. Some people leave a lasting imprint on your journey, and Shalini is definitely one of those souls for me.

Shalini, taught our son Efrem, Art from age 5-7 and it was great. Every single lesson he came home with a huge smile and something he couldn't wait to show us. She has a real talent for making young children feel confident and free, never pressured, always encouraged. You can see the difference in how he approaches creativity now: curious, bold, and genuinely joyful about it .If you are looking for someone who truly connects with kids and makes art come alive for them., look no further. Highly recommended!!

Here is my honest review: I've been attending Shalini's meditation classes for many years, and it's genuinely one of the best commitments I've made for my mental and emotional wellbeing. Having tried meditating with many different teachers in various settings, what sets Shalini apart is how relatable and intuitive she is. Her guidance always feels personal and grounded. She has a remarkable ability to sense what each session needs and adjusts her techniques accordingly — it's consistently spot-on. Over the years, I've watched her help many fellow moms, including myself, work through stress and build mindfulness habits. Her warmth and patience create a space that feels safe and welcoming every single time. | couldn't recommend a better mentor to learn from and meditate with!

Shalini's sessions are a very deep and unique experience.

Having lived in Japan for many years, it's been difficult to find a meditation teacher. Because my child and Shalini's child attend the same school, | had the opportunity to learn meditation from her. In the past few years, | initially practiced at her home, where Shalini would prepare authentic Masala tea for us after each class. Later, the school provided a space, so we moved to the school. After class, we would gather for coffee and chat, sometimes about our children's studies, sometimes weaving in the wisdom of meditation into our casual conversations—it's a truly wonderful memory. Meditation is one of my long-held interests. Although | sometimes don't fully understand due to the language barrier, | still persist in attending Shalini's classes. | remember once she organized a meditation session in a park.
