NeuroVeda by Pathak Yoga

Contemporary business leaders need to continuously re-wire their brain for handling increasing amounts of stressors in all areas of life. One of the key challenges is managing a ‘racing mind’ that is affected by exponentially increasing information overload. The way Bassanti teaches yoga is perfectly suited for addressing these evolving challenges. Her insights into neuroscience and focus on the importance of getting our breath and sleep right help immensely. A holistic attitude to health is paramount these days. Flexibility of the body, mind and soul represents a solid foundation for happy and successful life.

We hired Pathak Yoga in 2016 for weekly mat yoga classes to help our team with work-related back and neck issues. Everyone loves the sessions with Bassanti, and since COVID, we’ve been doing yoga with her live online and with recordings, which has helped keep us all healthy and sane. Bassanti is always encouraging and adapts the sessions to what we need on the day. She’s been doing yoga all her life, and it shows: I feel like I learn something new every time. I highly recommend her and Pathak Yoga.

Pathak Yoga’s chair yoga sessions are perfect for an office environment – quite rich and deep, but not too sweaty. We get all the basics and explanations on the movements and how they affect our bodies. The sessions include not only standing exercises, but also seated ones, many of which we can apply in our day to day office life sitting in front of a computer. Yoga in the workplace is so important in encouraging fitness in those who aren’t already active – often the ones who are more stressed and likely to be ill – so it’s great for the employees and great for the business.

We have been working with Bassanti at Parthak Yoga for the past 6 months within our Central London and South East London offices. Bassanti is able to deliver excellent seated and standing yoga and meditation classes within the office environment. Her sessions are consistently very well attended and we have had only stellar feedback. The team look forward to their “Zen Thursday” and many have expressed their gratitude and general improved feeling of wellbeing thanks to Bassanti. I would thoroughly recommend her!

Welcoming Mira and Bassanti is always a delight. The first time they came, they held an exhilarating desk yoga session with staff in aid of our ‘Office Wellness Week’. They were very happy to tailor the poses to people’s individual needs and useful suggestions and recommendations were made throughout the session. They have remained a pleasure to work with – for yoga, breathing and meditation classes.
