Read Our Story
We believe that as humans we possess an inconceivable power within us that can be found once we begin to seek it. It is this state of being where we transcend the limitations of our mind, and discover the depths of our soul, giving us the power to find great joy and inner peace from within, ultimately showing us our unique pathway to life.

Ever since I was a child, I faced several health-related issues which took me to dreaming of becoming a doctor. Life, however, had other plans for me. I landed at a Business School, graduating with a B.A in Business Administration. Soon after, I began working at an NGO, The Citizens Foundation (TCF), where I worked on education for the underprivileged children in Pakistan and simultaneously co-founded a Youth Movement “Uraan” (flight) with a focus on Street Children. I later went on to pursue my post-graduate studies from the Aga Khan University (ISMC), UK with a major in Anthropology and Development Studies. After my return to Pakistan, I worked in several organizations in the development sector, such as USAID, DFID and Engro.
However, over the years, I stopped finding meaning in what I was doing, and everything started to fall apart. I went through a difficult journey, where I battled with depression and strived to understand the significance of my existence. This struggle ultimately brought me to find my home in mental and spiritual well-being. I started practicing Meditation and Mindfulness and whilst training for it, I had the privilege to design and teach curricula on ‘Mindfulness for Young Teens’ and ‘Comparative Spirituality’ at a local IB school. I later went on to offering individualized training in Meditation and Mindfulness and continue to do so. It was not long before I also developed a keen interest in Reiki and Chakra Healing, and today I find deep joy in helping others heal.
Learning about self-development, therapeutic practices and holistic healing is where my heart lies and seeing its transformative effects in my own life, I hope to help others find the same. Through my journey, I have come to believe that with a regular meditation practice, we have the ability to transcend the mind, dive within and lovingly embrace our ‘self-less’ being: one that is essentially us but also much larger than us, a space that sets us free from bondage to this world, a space where we are reborn, loved and enfolded in the arms of unimaginable bliss. This ‘self-less’ state for me is Be-khudi.
And you, When will you begin
That long journey Into yourself?
