This is so much more than a self-help book about the science of sleep and the importance of good sleep for true success!

Sleep Your Way to Success carves out a clear path towards achieving balance, purpose, meaning and fulfilment in life. A must read for those with a growth mindset who want to make positive changes in any sphere of their life.
Dr. Rati Godrej, MD
I experienced deep rest. At the end of the Advanced course, I felt refreshed and rejuvenated.
I could take better decisions. I can think more clearly – which has definitely helped me as a doctor and as a human being. I have found that I had developed more patience.
The effects of the course lingered on for months after I did it. I make sure that I do at least two advanced courses every year.

The first time I took CST was for a second grade ligament tear in my knee. I wasn’t allowed and able to walk much, and had been advised rest for 6 months. After the first session, I stopped limping and was able to walk like a normal person.
In just two more sessions, I was fine – and could even run and exercise. This inspired me to learn CST.
Knowing that you can be effectively treated without any surgery or medications is a blessing itself.
Forever grateful.

Late one night, I started having severe stomach cramps. I took Rescue Remedy and in a matter of minutes, the pain subsided and I felt so much better.
I am so glad I learned about the Bach Remedies from Bawa. I use them often and almost always have fantastic results.
One of the best investments I have ever made.

I am a scientist and was quite sceptical at first about the Bach Flower Remedies. The Level 1 with Bawa opened my mind to a different level of understanding of how nature can heal us.
The remedies beautifully complement my meditation practice, and help even more in calming down my hyperactive mind. I am sleeping better as well.
I could identify some of the flowers from the gorgeous slides Bawa used and I felt lucky that I have some of these flowers growing right in my back garden in London.
I would highly recommend this joyful and informative workshop!

We keep learning and so should you. We are continuously improving everything about ourselves. We aim to move from one level of perfection to the next
On a Side Note
Sri Symphonic Bhajans
Ever wondered how bhajans would sound if a full blown western classical orchestra played them?
Inspired by a chance comment that Gurudev made, I sought out Pransanna who is a brilliant composer to make a western classical take on some of Art of Living’s most famous bhajans.
I knew exactly how I wanted the bhajans to sound and Prasanna was fantastic at understanding what I envisioned. He flawlessly created the tracks – almost pulling the music out of my head. Gowrishankar too, played a quiet and critical role in the creation of this beautiful music.
Enjoy!
Mumbai Connection - The Board Game
Gaming Unplugged!
All the tension, drama and triumphs of creating the world’s most complex city train system have been flattened on to a board!
After years of playing board games, we decided to create our own game. A game that people would love to play again and again.
A fun strategy board game in which there is a huge difference in the winning strategy depending on who you are playing with, and what your starting hand was like – with just enough luck factor to keep things mysterious till the very end.
