About ami
Meet me, Ami. I am happiest when travelling and when in the company of dogs (or doing a downward dog ;)). I have been a certified yoga instructor since 2018 and have been practicing yoga for 8+ years.
Nirvana + Ami
Nirvana Definition
According to Merriam-Webster, Nirvana means:
- The final beatitude that Transcends suffering, karma and Samsara especially in Buddhism through the extinction of desire and individual consciousness.
- A place or state of oblivion to care, pain or external reality.
Join me, Ami on my quest to attainment of Nirvana. According to Buddhist philosophy, Nirvana is the highest state of consciousness where one does not feel any suffering and is liberated from the desires of the materialistic world. I’m far from being liberated yet, but as I said I’m on a quest!
I have been drawn to this word since I was in high school and was a big fan of the band too. It wasn’t until recently I realized the true meaning of it and why it resonated with me so much. Although, I’m not ready to leave my materialistic, very Rajasic lifestyle but I do want to get one step closer to living a happy life full of content with tools that help me manage stress and the inevitable ups and downs of this roller coaster called Life.
And I’ve found the answer in yoga, meditation, breathwork and sound healing. And hence NirvanAmi was born so I may be able to teach and share my learnings on how to use yoga as a means for wellness for the mind, body and soul. My style of teaching focuses on all 8 limbs of yoga and not just the asanas/physical aspect of it. All bodies, ages are welcome and you do not have to be “fit” to join me. Yes, my practice is exactly like a bowl of Indian curry - explosion of different physical and well as energetic practices that have worked for me and hope to share it with you all!
