About the author
I was introduced to yoga at the young age of 10, when my father started taking me along to a yoga ashram in the Aravali hills in Delhi during the summer holidays.
​
In 1970, after my graduation as an electronics engineer, I moved to London. Here my interest in yoga was reignited and I took a diploma in teacher training with the British Wheel of Yoga.
I have taught and practised yoga for many years and meditational yoga is a culmination of my life’s experience in this field.

Meditational yoga brings your body close to a state of meditation, which, as well as enhancing the health benefits of the practice, helps you to gain control of your mind, develop a feeling of being in the ‘here and now’ and achieve inner peace.
