I am Prajakta Wasnik from Nagpur, Maharashtra working at a PSU bank for the last 8 years now. I came across one of the reel on yoga for eyes posted by Shani in December 2021. I was practicing Yoga through Youtube videos back then and never learned under any Yoga teacher. In January 2022, I saw a post by Shani about Online Yoga classes she was conducting that month. I was a little sceptical but anyway joined the class. And it was an eye-opener. I enjoyed the sessions so much that I joined her classes for next month and the next and the next and now I cannot imagine my mornings without Shani and the Yoga sessions. There is something in her voice that immediately calms me down. Her presence is so positive and calming that I can’t explain. The very first thing that I learned is to make friends with myself and my body. No one ever told me this and it is a sad thing that we actually need to be told this. I kept on joining the class not just for the good health of my physical being but it helped me calm myself, check my emotions, feel the thoughts and feelings and helped me get emotionally and mentally stronger. Till date my primary
focus is to have mental stability through yoga, physical health is like an added benefit for me.
I was not in a good shape (mentally and physically) when I started learning Yoga from Shani but the way she encourages you, guides you, motivates and supports you is what every teacher or guru should be doing.
I have surprised myself many times in these past one and a half years by doing poses I never thought I could attempt but the way Shani guides you and builds confidence is what I adore. She has more confidence in her students than the student themselves and none of her class has the same sequence. I just love how she designs the sessions and the way she guides us through even online. I also used to suffer from Anal Fissure due to constipation and lower back pain. Through regular practice, my back feels so good and my constipation has reduced drastically. And that is why I regard her as my Guru Tatva, my guiding light. She has helped me through a lot of
difficult times. Now that I’ve personally met her, I can say that she is one of the most humble, caring and loving person that I’ve ever seen or met. I can join her class just to listen her speak. I could not have asked for a better Yoga Guru. I would recommend anyone and everyone to enroll her classes who wants to lead a healthy life and feel food mentally and physically. For me it’s like selfcare. I can go on and on but I think I’ve covered basic things.
