HemAth Wellness Program: Nurturing Mind, Body, and Spirit

Empowering Women Through Holistic Wellness

Our Wellness Initiatives

For over three decades, many women in our community have struggled to regain control of their lives. At HemAth, we believe that mind and body wellness is the cornerstone of women’s empowerment. Our comprehensive wellness program is designed to address the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs of our resilient sisters.

Yoga and Mind-Body Wellness

Recognising that a healthy body and a peaceful mind are essential components of empowerment, HemAth places great emphasis on yoga as a holistic practice to foster both physical and mental well-being.

HemAth regularly organises yoga sessions designed to suit varying skill levels, providing an accessible way for women to maintain a balanced lifestyle.

In-Person Yoga Retreat:

An in-person yoga retreat was hosted in the Jagti-Jammu Township, led by a certified Art of Living instructor. This retreat provided a rare opportunity for participants to engage in immersive yoga practice while building a supportive community.

Weekly Yoga Classes

HemAth offers weekly yoga sessions every Sunday, taught by:

Ms. Karuna Dhar Munshi, a certified “Art of Living” teacher, focusing on meditation, breathing techniques, and relaxation.

Ms. Renu Wokhlu, a self-taught yoga practitioner, building confidence in women to practice yoga at home.

Through these yoga programs, HemAth empowers women by improving their physical strength, emotional resilience, and overall well-being.

Private and Confidential Counseling
