Yoga Therapy aims to make you disease-free by treating you on all levels — physical, mental and emotional. How you feel emotionally directly affects how you feel physically. The therapist understands the emotional cause behind the physical discomfort, then addresses it by providing effective counselling leading to a shift in mindset. The physical problem is also addressed directly through yoga, pranayam and meditative techniques. This way, Therapy Yoga supplements any ongoing or recommended medical treatment protocols by accelerating the recovery process. When the emotional cause is sorted, the physical recovery is that much quicker and more permanent.

Problems like chronic pain, diabetes, anxiety, palpitations, hormonal imbalances, high blood pressure, weakness, obesity, and much else can be effectively helped through Yoga Therapy and Counselling. The treatment of any and all ailments can be supported with Disease Care Yoga. However, Yoga Therapy should not be used to replace any recommended medical procedures or protocols, but rather used to support other treatments for a more permanent cure.

Before we go into more details, check out what others have to say about Therapy Yoga with Shashi Sarda.

“I was introduced to Shashi Sharda by a friend when I was struggling with my anxiety issues. Shashi Sharda has changed the course of my life. She is patient, honest, compassionate and empathetic. She has an amazing ability to tell you the truth, no matter how harsh it is, without making you feel bad about it. She has enabled me to see my challenges and problems with a new perspective and I can already see the immense difference it has brought to my life. Moreover, in this world where everybody is trying to commercialize mental health, Shashi Sharda stands out with her genuine passion for her work and her intense desire to make a difference in the lives of people. She goes out of her way to help you, check on you and ensure that you don’t waver from your path. She has modified her schedule several times to accommodate my sessions as I live abroad. I cannot thank her enough for her help and support. It is because of her that I have been able to overcome my anxiety issues to a great extent. We may be in denial or we may believe that we can solve our own problems, but seeking help and undergoing therapy will help you get a different perspective that is non-judgmental, objective and honest. The best person to seek help from would be Shashi Sharda and I would strongly recommend her to everybody.”
– PM, Career Counsellor
“Shashi, what can I say about her. I have been in therapy for about 3 years now and nothing seems to have worked. My sister suggested me to have a word with her. Trust me I never felt so relieved. She listens to you and tries to understand the root cause of it. I have cried during those conversations but it was really a sign of relief that someone understood what I have been through and try to support me. She has been a boon to me and I could not thank her enough for helping me out in my journey. Thank you Shashi.”
– Rupsha Roy Choudhury, Investment Banker
“Unlike some of the very troubling situations faced by many others, I felt I had a case of typical anxiety and over thinking that most of us go through, embroiled in my own thoughts, mostly related to work and personal relationships. And for the longest time, I thought I would manage this myself and its silly to consider speaking to someone (the idea of therapy or counselling never really occurred to me)
I had been going for Shashi’s yoga classes for over two years but wasn’t aware she was a yoga counseler. I happened to read one of the testimonials Shashi posted and so I reached out to Shashi for a casual chat to understand more about how yoga therapy worked.
In the first meeting itself, she pretty much zeroed in on some fundamental issues in my thinking, what was blocking me and what amazed me was, that she managed to do this without me giving any specific details about my current life issues. That really convinced me that she could help me navigate my thoughts and reconstruct a new way of thinking that would help me come out of some black holes in my head. Shashi gave me some simple exercises and homework with every session and she regularly followed up on me to make sure I was not slacking. I saw a definite shift in my outlook and it’s been 6 months now, and the mental shift I made with Shashi, has stayed with me and I still apply it when I feel stuck. It, of course, requires hard work and belief from my end but the tools have been really helpful. I would recommend talking to Shashi at any point, for any small or large issues that may be bogging us down, and causing anxiety or general discontentment also. Thanks Shashi and more power to you! :)”

“I have been suffering from chronic cervical and neck pain for over a year before I came to Shashi. I also suffered from severe migraine. I was also going through depression and extreme hopelessness triggered by my physical problems. By then I had already gone through physiotherapy, pain killers and tried everything. They could only give me momentary release and not a solution. Then one of my colleagues refereed me to Shashi. From the very first I liked how her focus was to create a holistic therapy process that would look at improving not just my physical body but also my mind. I have been to many therapists before, but I have never met someone so dedicated, passionate and sincere in their approach. When she is working with you she is completely engrossed and is not bothered by things like time. She takes consistent follow-ups to ensure you are doing your homework. I felt completely taken care of by her but also at the same time she was strengthening me to make me take care of myself. I did around 10 sessions with her and I can’t put in words how much I have grown. She has completely transformed my perspective and outlook towards things and that in turn has helped me process situations better. My pain has subsided considerably, migraines don’t happen that frequently but most importantly now I am equipped to deal with most of the situations life has in store for me. I am happier, healthier and heartier thanks to Shashi.”

“My path with Shashi Ma’am crossed just when I needed her the most and turns out it was the best thing that happened to me. By the time I met her I had gone through multiple failed IVF cycles. I was extremely disturbed. In my initial sessions with her she made me realise I had a lot of baggage and that I wasn’t even thinking of a baby. She made me aware of a few things about myself which really made a difference. I still replay in my head important lessons, examples she taught me, a few concepts she introduced me to will always stay with me. She never limited herself to the sessions, she encouraged me getting in touch with her whenever I needed her. She helped me clear my head. And believe it or not I just followed her lessons religiously and just when I felt better, lighter I conceived, naturally! I remember she told me once “you won’t conceive until your mind and body are open”, I understood it now. If I join the dots now, things just fell in place for me having met her at this point of time in my life. I feel extremely fortunate to have found Shashi Ma’am and will continue to seek her guidance.
Thank you ma’am you’ve touched my life and I hope this attempt of mine helps somebody out there too. Thank you!”

“Problem: I wanted to run away from my marriage because I wasn’t getting along with my husband. I had reached a point where my marriage didn’t seem worth my time and energy.
How sessions with Shashi helped me: The sessions helped me take charge of my life by becoming more aware about my behaviour. I’m now happy with my marriage because I did work on the inside (i.e., within me) without changing anything on the outside. Shashi made me realise how my beliefs about others were ruining my relationships with my husband and other family members. She also made me realise that I have created a difficult situation for myself with my sky-high expectations from others. The ripple effects of Shashi’s sessions have helped me in other areas of my life such as work, my self-image and other mental blocks. Since the start, Shashi’s approach was to take me on a journey where she would guide me and then equip me with all the tools that I could use throughout my life – just like a mom holds her baby’s hands for the first few times when the baby learns to walk and then the mom let’s go when she can see that the baby is good to go on her own. Shashi has helped me reach that point of self-sustainability.”
– Mahima (name changed) has finished her Yoga Counselling sessions , and is now wholeheartedly back in her marriage and much happier than before.

“You are my go-to person when life is rough. Its amazing how you see more positives in my life than I do. You’ve taught me one very important lesson: ‘Where fear ends, life begins’. When I first started speaking with you, I suffered from anxiety, insecurity and fear. The three feelings that can make anyone’s life hopeless. You got me out of all three and turned them into confidence, positivity and strength. And for this, I shall always be thankful. You really know the right buttons to press and have an amazing diagnostic capability for psychological problems. Hope you are able to reach out to as many mentally weak individuals as possible so that they work themselves into a better space.”
– Deepak had a TSH of 67 when he met Shashi. His TSH is now 4.
“Hello Shashi,
I just want to give a brief light on what I have experienced after getting in touch with you. So my lifestyle has changed in a better way with the motivation that I got from you. Now I love exercising and don’t take it as a burden as I enjoy doing it. I feel light and happy as I can see the difference in what I was and what I am. You’ve filled my mind with positive energy, which keeps my inner werewolf at bay, and that was much needed for a guy like me.
I’m really thankful to get associated with you. It’s doing wonders to my health.
THANKS A TONN !”
– Keshav had weight loss issues that were rooted far deeper than just the physical body.
“Thank you very much.!!
You are a true motivator, a helping hand, solution giver and the list goes on.
You were there when I needed a friend or some one who can understand me. You not just heard me but also helped me understand what exactly is the problem and gave solution to address it. The problems were small but I made them look big and you have helped me to address the root cause of the issue by giving a new direction to my thinking. Thank you for the simple quick techniques that you have given me which works like magic. After following the techniques I am not just more balanced but also I have a feel good factor about my self. Thank you for making my environment around more happy and positive.
Your talks, guidance and immediate access to you helped me come out from my world of negative thinking and understanding that life is above all that and is very beautiful to live.
Thank you once again for the helping hand.
Regards and love
Swati”

“I had engaged with Yoga on and off many times before. It is not until I found my current guru, Shashi Sarda, and truly experienced the transformative power of Yoga.
Due to an extensive work life my body had started facing many a health challenges early on, PCOD being one of the major concerns. I had tried allopathy, naturopathy, homeopathy and what not, over the last 7years but failed to effectively manage this syndrome.
An year ago I took the first class with Shashi and almost immediately started seeing the changes. Since then, I’m completely off any medication, managing PCOS alongwith the other minor issues like migraine and sciatica only though Yoga! And I credit this 100% to Shashi.
She’s a brilliant teacher with an unbelievable insight into the body and mind of her students.
Besides the physical training, she’s taught me how to calm my mind and look inwards through closed eyes… It’s like I can connect with all my organs, cells and the very being that is me.”
– Samta Nadeem

The human being is a combination of the physical, the mental and the emotional being.

When we suffer from any disease or ailment, we tend to restrict our focus only to the physical discomfort, or sometimes to the mental anguish. People very rarely, if ever, consider the contribution and ramifications of our emotional state toward the disease.

The fact is, what we are thinking and our emotions toward a situation, as well as our reactions due to our feelings toward a situation, are also as important as the physical and mental aspects.

But since we don’t pay attention to all three levels of our being together at any given point of time, our ailments do not get completely healed. We are left with reduced discomfort or periods of feeling better, but we never feel completely disease-free.

The idea behind Disease Care Yoga or Yoga Therapy or Yoga Counseling is to treat you on all three levels so you can completely rid yourself of any ailment.

“Your present situation doesn’t determine where you go; it only determines where you start.”

Therapy Yoga and Ayurvedic Treatments turned her life around!

All problems, ailments or diseases first start with our emotions and feelings, which then affect our mental state. This then proceeds to affect our physical body. Physical manifestation is the beginning of the last stage of the disease. Unfortunately, we notice the problem only when it manifests in the physical body. Furthermore, we try to cure it superficially by working only on the physical being. To cure the disease completely, work needs to be done on all three levels, beginning with changing how we feel about certain things.

Weak roots will not sustain a strong tree. If we work on making the roots strong, the tree will grow stronger as well and blossom.

Consider this simple analogy. Imagine you’re thirsty. It’s an uncomfortable feeling. You don’t know yet that drinking water will quench your thirst and end your discomfort. You continue to suffer, not knowing the solution for your problem (the thirst). Now imagine that someone comes and gives you a glass of water. You drink it and instantly your problem is solved. You understand that the solution to your thirst is drinking water. Now the next time you get thirsty, you won’t suffer or get upset. You will simply get up, go to the water station and drink some water.

This is what Yoga Counselling and Therapy Yoga achieve.

During the therapy yoga sessions, you are made to understand where your water station is and how you can get the water to quench your thirst, thereby making you independent.

Once you know the root cause of your ailment, disease or problem, whatever the amount of discomfort, you will know how to solve it at an emotional, mental and physical level on your own. You will make yourself disease-free on your own, independently.

Therapy Yoga is conducted on appointment basis in private sessions where each individual’s problems are addressed at a personal level to get maximum benefit in as few sessions as possible.
