योगश्चित्तवृत्तिनिरोधः
Yogaś citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ
Yoga Sutras of Patanjali · I.2 · 2,000 years ago
"Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind."

The racing thoughts, the overwhelm, the endless spiral — Patanjali described this 2,000 years ago. Modern science calls it dysregulation. The yogis called it citta-vṛtti. This program is the practice that stills it — structured, personal, and built specifically for minds like yours.

Try it now · A moment of calm

Quiet the racing mind.

Before you read further — take one minute. Follow the circle: let it guide your breath. A longer exhale is the quickest way to tell your nervous system it's safe to slow down.

Press begin, and let the breath lead.
01

Lengthen the exhale

Make each out-breath longer than the in-breath — in for four, out for six. A slow exhale shifts the nervous system from stress into rest.

02

Return to the breath

When thoughts spiral, gently bring attention to the air at your nostrils. You're not stopping the thoughts — just choosing where your attention rests.

03

Alternate-nostril breath

A few rounds of Nadi Shodhana — breathing through one nostril at a time — balances the mind and softens mental chatter. A classic for an overactive mind.

04

Hum on the exhale

Bhramari, the humming breath: exhale with a soft hum. The gentle vibration soothes the vagus nerve and quiets the noise inside.

05

Ground through the body

Feel your feet or your seat. Soften the jaw and drop the shoulders. A racing mind lives in the head — the breath and body bring you back down.

Your teachers

Two guides.
One lineage. One vision.

A Swami rooted in the tradition of Sri Swami Sivananda and a modern teacher who navigated her own anxiety, overthinking, and burnout — together they hold both ends of the bridge.

Product 01 · The 7-Day Reset

Seven days to a
quieter mind.

Our signature program for the racing mind. Over seven structured days of live practice, here is what you build — traditional yogic tools combined with modern insight, carried far beyond the mat.

01

Awareness

Learning to observe your own mind, habits, and patterns without judgment — the foundation of real change.

02

Emotional Resilience

Tools to meet difficult emotions without being overwhelmed. Again and again, until it becomes natural.

03

Focus

Practices that train attention gently — for the overthinking mind, the scattered mind, and yes, the ADHD mind too.

04

Inner Stability

A steady ground beneath you, even when everything outside feels uncertain or chaotic.

05

Quiet Mind

Guided meditation and pranayama that calm the nervous system — not someday, but starting today.

06

Trauma Release

Movement, breathwork, and somatic practices to let go of what the body has been holding onto.

07

Gita Wisdom

Timeless lessons from the Bhagavad Gita — simplified and made practical for the modern mind.

08

Sustainable Practice

Not a 30-day challenge — a way of living with your breath, body, and mind that you carry for life.

In our own words

What we mean by real yoga.

Most people have never done yoga. They've only done poses.
Yoga is not flexibility. Yoga is learning how to stay steady while everything inside you wants to run.
Yoga is not love and light. Yoga is learning how to turn your rage into a roar.
Yoga is not shrinking to keep the peace. Yoga is standing tall and becoming the storm.
Yoga is not the pose. It is the moment after the pose, when something inside you finally lets go.
Yoga is not about silencing the storm. It is about becoming so rooted that the storm can no longer carry you away.
Yoga is not pretending to be peaceful. Yoga is standing in the fire without becoming the fire. Feeling everything. Running from nothing. There is karuṇā.

A complete living practice.

Invoking inner Shakti through traditional practices. Safe, guided, lineage-rooted, transformative.

Questions

The things you're wondering

None at all. This program is for real people, not advanced practitioners. The only requirement is openness. Swami Ji teaches in plain English and Simii's classes are built for people who have never done yoga before.
You join a real live session — either a meditation with Swami Ji or a movement and breathwork class with Simii. No credit card, no commitment. You experience the actual program before you decide anything.
Every session is recorded and yours to keep forever. You never lose anything. The live group energy is real though — we always encourage you to show up when you can.
After you enroll, Simii sends you a short intake form. Based on your answers — your challenges, your schedule, your goals — she builds a custom yoga therapy plan for you personally. For 2-week and longer enrollments, she checks in weekly and adjusts as you progress.
No — and we would never claim it is. This is a powerful complementary practice. Many students use it alongside therapy, medication, or professional support. We are yoga teachers who care deeply about your whole picture of healing.
We serve a global community, so sessions rotate across IST, GMT, and US timezones. All sessions are recorded so you're never excluded regardless of where you are.
Every enrolled student becomes a graduate of the Sadhana Circle — a private community that stays with you long after the program ends. New sessions, ongoing guidance. You are never done and you are never alone.
The first 10 students pay the founding price. If they continue as monthly members, that price never changes — no matter how our standard rates evolve. Our way of honouring the people who believe in this from the very beginning.
