The LivingWise Project is a Wisdom + Wellness portal sharing knowledge from spiritual and philosophical traditions focusing on the ancient Indian yogic and Vedantic systems. The inner tools for self-discovery and true well-being are brought forward in a relatable way for our modern age.

For over 10 years, I worked in the high-powered environments of investment banking and consulting at some of the world’s leading institutions. Exceptional achievements marked the academic and professional life, but leaving a feeling of incomplete-ness.
What I came to see through my life experience is that life requires not only a competence in action and the impact that can be made in the world, but also an inner understanding and profoundness of experience.
The great news is that it is possible to have an understanding of life that allows our experience to be friction-free, light and joyous.
Knowing Yourself – the Key
With years of intensive immersion in yoga, meditation and ancient wisdom teachings like Vedanta and Zen, deeper insights into life came to be known in my own journey.
In modern education, we are seldom taught about the nature of our mind and body. We are not given tools to access our inherent wisdom and intuition. It is with wisdom that our minds can find their proper orientation and natural flow. Wisdom is in each of us and only has to be unlocked.
I have been sharing about the age-old wisdom teachings through the LivingWise Project blog and newsletters since 2016 and the sessions are a more practical application and extension of this wisdom prompted by the requests for guidance I often receive from friends and readers of the blog.
Whatever the nature of the issue you are facing, whether “spiritual” or “worldly”, if you have a willingness to explore “inwardly”, you are welcome to get in touch.
