Yoganama is a wellness platform that brings the three key pillars of mindful living, Yoga, Ayurveda & Philosophy, under one roof. Yoga extends beyond performing asanas on the mat – it is also about breath, meditation, and sensible living. And infusing Ayurveda principles can help us understand the strengths and weaknesses of our inherent nature to better navigate our everyday life. Yoganama furthers one’s journey to health and happiness by helping incorporate these practices into one’s daily routine.
