“It is no sign of a healthy mind to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society”

J. Krishnamurthi

What people are saying.

“I don’t have words to express what you’ve done for me. In just a few sessions, I’ve had moments of confidence and some semblance of peace. ...

The ability to make another feel valued and acknowledged in todays world is almost non existing, yet you excel at it and provided me the sliver of hope upon which we all exist.

Your kindness, compassion and objectivity is tremendously precious and I hope you help many more people like myself . There truly is no nobler cause, then to be the only hope of someone who has lost it all.”

“I came to Gayatri with a lot of issues - one of them being painful memories from childhood and youth, surfacing during my meditation. I didn’t know how to handle those overwhelming feelings.

In the past few months, she has helped me transmute those memories and release them gently, thereby enabling forgiveness to happen from within.

Once the memories started to subside, she has been helping me gain strength and confidence in myself and manifest the divine shakti within me. I have begun to feel empowered and have found a voice to speak up for myself. More importantly, I have started to treat myself with more compassion and kindness.

I think a good therapist like a true guru, intuitively taps into the strength and wisdom of the client/disciple and helps them heal themselves from within. They are the signposts that direct us onto the right path. Taking the journey is upto us.

With her guidance, I have been able to embark on my journey into myself. She always very humbly and kindly gives me full credit for my progress even though I know very well that she plays a very important role in it.

I thank the Universe for sending her to me at a time when I needed her the most.”

We at Shamah | शम: are quite young and quite touched by the support we receive. We subsist mainly on word of mouth. We do not solicit testimonials from clients, but if sometimes we receive one from a former client who asks to share the opinion discreetly, we feel heartened to post it here. We don’t use names or comments that reveal identities.

“When people say that they will not consider faith, and they will not consider religion or spirituality, I think it's a very elitist stance. because what you're essentially saying is, there is mind body spirit, you're saying, I will listen to your body, that is your somatic expressions, I will listen to your mind, which means the person essentially has to be articulate, an intellectual, but whatever spiritual insight, intuition, understanding or faith that you might have, I'm going to delete it, which means that your… that [part of you] becomes base, that becomes barbaric, that becomes uneducated, illiterate. And I find it essentially not just elitist, I find it also racist.”
