The first sound bath I ever attended made me feel like I was portaled into heaven and then lovingly placed back on Earth, and years later it is my absolute delight to invite you to a Community Sound Bath on Thursday, August 27, 2026, 7:30PM at the Nupur Dance Studio [178 W Maple Rd. Troy, MI]

Sound healing is a form of energetic healing based on the science and philosophies of Nada Yoga. We’ll use sound, vibration, and breath, to invite you to shift you from a normal state of consciousness (beta) to a highly relaxed state of consciousness (alpha & theta). For those who might struggle with traditional forms of meditation, using Tibetan Singing bowls and other elemental instruments in a guided setting can create the optimal conditions for focus, balance, and relaxation. 

Are sound baths right for you? This community setting aims to give you a low-stakes way to try it out! Sound baths are often expensive (due to training, equipment, and transportation costs) but Radhika Acharya has generously donated the studio space to make these sessions possible. 

Curious? Register for our very first session in the link in bio. Did I mean to post this earlier? Yes! But if you can’t make it to this one—sign up to our general interest form and make sure you get notified for future community sound baths. The more the merrier—please feel free to share this with anyone and everyone who might be interested! taken in Troy, Michigan by @anki.acharya

Calling all tender hearts, curious minds, and big dreamers! Join us in March 2027 for DESERT BLOOM, a week-long oasis nestled in the valleys of North Chile, created to nurture you through life’s many transitions. 

Together we’ll return to the foundations—breath, sensation, connection, and awareness—weaving together new ways of understanding ourselves and the world around us. What if we already had everything we need within us? What if we gave it space to unfurl? 

Curiosity piqued? Send us your email and we’ll send you more information! Early bird spots are open September 1–we can’t wait for you to join us at @casadeva.cl

Fell into the slipstream—turning the days over and over to realize how quickly three months have passed. Accumulating the casualties of a time-blind person in a time-blind place. I hope this post itself is an invitation to slow down.

Slowed down long enough to gather all these parts of me. I have maybe 100 videos, and I intended to string them all together, but I’m reaching for enoughness, not perfection, and so this is where we land. Witnessing, after all, is an act of love. 

Pocket change from a tropical hibernation—scraps and fragments from my inner crow, the harvest of reading, documenting, and archiving again. 

Somehow knowing less about the future means I grow more intimate with my own capabilities. If you made it this far—I’d love to know your favorites ❣️

What is religion but the beauty of a woman swimming over the edge of the horizon? - Kiran Desai

The universe is no straight line, no narrow road. The universe is a riddle, a slant gathering of places, of voices, of happenings. - Jesmyn Ward

Where do old birds go to die? Do they fall on us like stones from the sky? Do we stumble on their bodies in the streets? - Arundhati Roy 

Even the most shining future, if desired, will have suffering as its heart - Shelley Parker-Chan

In what language does rain fall over tormented cities? - Pablo Neruda

Have you ever been in the air so long that your feet begin to fall in love with the new familiar, walking along some invisible surface that is surely there, that must be, as there is no other way to describe what miracle keeps you afloat? How long have you been suspended in a place that loves you with the same ferocity and freedom as the ground might, as the grave might, as a heaven that lets you walk in drowning in gold might? - Hanif Abdurraqib

Once you fall into the stream, the stream takes you to the ocean, then you need not do anything - Buddha taken in India by @anki.acharya

✨ imagine a renewed world ✨

How do you find refuge in your daily life?

How do you allow space for joy?

These are some of the questions we pose at every OYA Retreats session. No matter if #softlifesunday an urban or a weekend retreat. We believe that integration is the key. 

It is helpful to step away, to get outside the noise to recalibrate. And yet, we have to work to bring the insights and clarity we gain when we step away into our daily lives, our daily routines. 

With so much chaos and violence and uncertainty in the world, our capacity to dream of something different, a world built on love and kindness may feel unimaginable. But, that’s the con. It’s absolutely possible and within reach. 

take refuge • integrate • dream 💫

RESCHEDULED: Sunday, April 12, 2026, 16:00-17:50 BST

We’re back again for round two—this time online for more ease and accessibility! Are you a South Asian yoga or wellness facilitator in the UK? Join Mitra, a new collective about friendship, collaboration, and the ways we can uplift each other and support our vibrant communities.

Maybe you feel like you don’t belong or feel misunderstood? This is the space to share and commune. Mitra is wellness for the South Asian diaspora by the South Asian diaspora.

It was such a joy to connect in person in January, and we can’t wait to connect with more of you in the coming weeks. You’ll have the opportunity to meet with each other, share your experiences, and help us dream up everything Mitra can be!

This event is free and open to all South Asian wellness facilitators. Please share and tag anyone who might be interested in creating this space with us.

Registration link in bio. Please complete this form even if you cannot attend this meet-up to be kept informed about future events. taken in London, United Kingdom by @anki.acharya
