“Dr Rao made it so easy to make these changes a part of my everyday life”

Over the last few years, I have been on a deeply immersive journey of returning to myself. I was in an abusive relationship / marriage for 22 years. This relationship had started when I was 16, so I had never really figured out who I was as a person. At the same time I was a highly functional adult, financially stable and a single mom of a happy. healthy, well-functioning child, and now happily married again, but I knew that none of my outward progress would be sustainable if I did not heal my past trauma and reconnect with my authentic self. I was diagnosed with PTSD and I was dealing with mid-life - a time of profound change in most people's life. My career is no longer satisfying, I am rebuilding my life with a new marriage and a blended family and facing an impending empty-nest, so even as I was dealing with the past my life had already taken on a new trajectory.

While on this journey, I discover Prof. Srikumar's course. So I read up a little more about him, listened to his TED talk and attended his Masterclass. And I was completely hooked.

While I knew what I was working with, what I was trying to heal - my biggest issue would always be where to start and then how to take it step by step without being overwhelmed. With Prof Srikumar I found the journey to be profoundly moving, yet unbelievably simple. He resonated with me and validated everything I believed about life and living (one does not get this validation often).

What he said was not necessarily new, but he made it very easy to implement. And that was the key...he made it so easy to make these changes a part of my everyday life.

I have been able to release so much while working with his course - some of it was very painful to go through. I cried, I ranted, (my family was very patient) - but things that had stayed clogged inside me for so long came

rushing through as if a floodgate had been opened. And yet it was easy to move on without getting stuck in the emotion. Even my therapist was amazed at the progress I was making and how many of my past traumas I was able to address at the same time.

I am doing the quest again and savouring the journey of finding and living my truth. This time around it is about the future…
