Sustainable Wellness

I have so much gratitude for Sonali's yoga, nutrition and communication class. I have been attending Sonali’s class weekly for about 6 months and it has made a huge impact in my life. As a yoga instructor, she provides strong direction and guidance to truly strengthen my muscles and my relationship with my body and myself. Week by week, she pushes me to fully embody my strength and flexibility and focus on muscles I didn’t even know existed! The work of self-grounding is very connected to her guided meditations and the work she does with communication and nutrition. She has so much knowledge about the ways to eat in a way that is anti-inflammatory and truly provides nourishment and nutrition to the body—and so many amazing techniques on how to make vegan, gluten free food taste truly delicious! The communication portion of the class—focused on Imago techniques—has honestly transformed the way I approach all my relationships, from family to work to loved ones to random people I encounter. I feel I am so much better at listening, at being in control of my responses, noticing how my nervous system is affected by my surroundings, and being a compassionate and supportive friend who communicates clearly and can truly hold space for someone. Sonali is a rare person who teaches and facilitates with confidence, strength, openness, and love—this is her passion, her lifestyle, her way of existing—and it is such a gift for her to share it with clients and students. She has a firm sense of compassion for humanity and a drive for justice that guides all of her interactions and her work as a whole. Sonali inspires others to live that way too.
