Co-Founder

Meenal Nigam is a yoga therapist, researcher, and educator with over 20 years of experience specializing in ancient meditation techniques, breathwork, and energy healing. Her journey into yoga began in 1993 at the age of 19, when she used it as a therapeutic approach to address upper spinal nerve weakness. Under the guidance of Dr. Ruhi Shekhar, she successfully regained function through disciplined yogic practices, later transitioning into teaching in 2004.

Meenal’s expertise extends beyond traditional physical yoga, incorporating neuroscience, bioenergetics, and psychophysiology into healing practices. She holds certifications across multiple energy healing modalities, including:

Reiki (Grandmaster Level) – Trained under Indian Reiki Master Rakesh Sadh and later Philip Martis in Seichem Healing (2010).

Energy Field Healing– Studied the principles established by Master Choa Kok Sui, focusing on optimizing the body’s natural energy systems for holistic health.

Breath-Control Meditation – Initiated into Paramhansa Yogananda’s lineage through Anand Sangha, applying focused breathing techniques to enhance mental clarity and brain function.

Advanced Hypnotherapy Certification– Completed training at The California Institute of Hypnotherapy, specializing in subconscious patterning, cognitive restructuring, and trauma-informed healing techniques.

Sound Therapy – Researching the effects of vibrational frequencies and sound-based healing methods for cognitive enhancement and emotional balance.

Her scientific approach to yoga integrates:

Neurophysiology of Breathwork – Studying how controlled breathing regulates the autonomic nervous system, stimulates the vagus nerve, and supports mental well-being.

Energy System Dynamics – Investigating the relationship between consciousness, bioenergetic fields, and physiological health.

Mind-Body Integration – Using deep meditation, breath techniques, and guided visualization to enhance neural plasticity and behavioral conditioning.

Meenal has trained hundreds of students in yoga therapy and mind-body medicine, many of whom are now certified instructors and clinical practitioners. She designs corporate wellness programs, therapeutic interventions, and retreats that incorporate disciplines such as:

Physical Yoga & Traditional Breathwork

Sound Therapy & Healing Through Frequencies

Breath-Control Meditation for Brain Optimization

Subtle Energy Science & Holistic Healing

Psychophysiological Conditioning Through Chanting & Mantra Therapy

Driven by a passion for lifelong learning, she is committed to scientific inquiry, interdisciplinary research, and integrating yoga-based healing methods into modern health and wellness.
