Who is behind this
Hi. I’m Aradhana.
I built Sam & Sak to show you the part of you that answers before you do. Getting to know them is how you start to know yourself.
Why do we do what we do?
It is the question underneath everything I have built. I wanted a life lived abundantly, and I want the same for you.
Discipline alone was never enough.
On its own it becomes one more way to be hard on yourself. It needs compassion, kindness and unconditional love beside it.
So the work is to regulate the nervous system and befriend the mind, until the two of them are allies instead of opponents. Five minutes a day, in actions small enough that you keep them.
Yoga, reiki, aromatic kinesiology, mindset coaching.
I love all four, because together they bring the body, the mind and the heart into the same room. None of them does the whole job on its own, which is the point.
Twenty years of corporate work sits underneath it, most of it leading teams, which is where I learned that the people who cannot change something are almost never the people who do not understand it.
The whole reason
Adults get their act together so children do not carry it.
That sentence has not changed in years, and it is still the reason behind all of it.
Santosha · Yoga Sutras 2.42
From contentment comes a happiness
nothing can beat.
Not gratitude for the good days. The kind that stays on the other ones.
Start where it is easiest
Five days, five minutes a day, free. It is the whole practice at a quarter of the size, and nothing is sold to you until day five.
