Payal
I could give up my hatha yoga practice or my martial arts practice if I was forced to - but not writing. I yearn for it like I need air and food. The real or underlying need here is for self-expression, 'To experience oneself honestly' as Bruce Lee says, to 'express yourself,' this is purpose of life, the purpose that drives me; the need to experience myself authentically.
Writing is also Yoga. In the process my consciousness expands, the veil of avidya or ignorance thins and dissolves and I access the deepest, most authentic part of my nature, arriving at a blissful state where I could remain forever. It is stillness within movement and movement within stillness. Ultimately, it is a resource for healing and transformation and I combine it with other creative and spiritual arts to facilitate growth and change over the four levels of our being - mind, body, heart and spirit.

TESTIMONIALS
"I met Payal through social media. When I had the session with her, it was a while I had been following her on Twitter and Instagram. I also signed up to her newsletter. Taking part in a Skype-session with her was a great opportunity to investigate my thoughts and my feelings. She is a true empath, she can connect with you on so many levels you almost forget you are working on healing yourself. You just can be yourself, without boundaries. Everything happens naturally. She guides you inside your soul thanks to her intuition. I loved how she managed the breathing part and the analysing process. The activities are varied and simple. Doing this short training session with Payal is like talking and sharing things with a long-known friend. I recommend her as a teacher and as a listener. She will open many doors for you, although you have to work on yourself alone. She will give you the tools, you will have to do the tough work."
~ C. B.
"I am one of the Payal’s yoga class students and I have also experienced a coaching session with her recently. After my first yoga session with Payal I felt much stronger, more positive, happier and definitely much more energetic than I was before. My energy was on fire! I can tell my attitude towards myself has also changed and I am more aware of what is going on around me. I watch myself and my needs closely now. I now think about what I need and who I am as a human. I thought I wasn’t a big fan of yoga but this is not true. I am getting more and more into it. My mind and body is learning how to relax and be in the moment. I can feel the difference even though I am still a beginner learner.
I have also experienced the coaching session with Payal. It was an amazing practice. I have to say that nothing made sense to me at the beginning but by the end of the session I have found out lots of different answers to my questions that I have had in my mind for years! My needs are more clear now and I know what small steps to take forward. I did some visualisation, drawing and writing as well as a goal settings and intentions. Now I feel like I am on the right track and I am moving on! Payal, thank you for your kindness, understanding, patience and professionalism. Thank you!"
~ Joanna A.
"I found my coaching session with Payal very effective. It helped identify where I hold my tension and I learnt about the different methods I could use to control this such as breathing techniques. It really helped me to focus on my current feelings, I learnt things about myself I wasn't even aware of through writing and drawing! Since the first session, I already feel better, it is good to be able to discuss feelings with someone who understands and get them out in the open."
~ Fay Cummings.
"I didn’t feel in charge of certain situations in my life, not knowing that the ability to take charge lies within me. The coaching session helped me to reunite my body, mind and soul again; I feel stronger and more in charge! And I know which tools to use should I feel helpless again. I feel so much better than yesterday! So thank you so much Payal!"
~ Chrissie K.
"Payal has a serious magical gift for Energy & Goddess Card readings! I am always astounded at how accurate they seem to read situations for me and I have been able to gain clarity and connection with my inner wisdom and intuition in inevitable times of cloudiness when I am stuck in my mind. Not once have they led me astray! The cards seem to be one of Payal's magical tools that she innately knows how to pick and interpret to me in the most 'gentle but no bullshit' helpful way. Thank you!"
~ Louisa P.
"Thank you for the session it made me feel more relaxed! And helped me identify issues that I didn't realise before."
~ S. Haque.
"Payal is a great coach! Just wanted to say thank you for the lovely coaching session. I found the whole experience to be revitalizing."
~ D.T.
"I loved Payal’s holistic approach. Her focus was on helping me find the answers within because, well, they are all there. Just sometimes clouded in a fog. We did meditation, drawing and journaling, movement and also pulled her energy and goddess cards. One of the meditations was to increase the awareness of our physical, emotional and spiritual body, which I found very interesting. She also showed me breathing techniques to help me feel calm and grounded. Payal works very intuitively and so invested in helping you find the answers and your path. At the end of the session I felt energised and positive and confident about myself. I would recommend her coaching for any woman looking for clarity.”
~ M. S.
"It’s a really great 30 minutes that helped me focus on myself. It calmed me down and gave me time to reflect on my emotional state. The breathing techniques and yoga nidra refreshed and gathered my energies. I look forward to another session!"
~ Alice Lee.
Online course: The Shero Rises: 6 Weeks to Reclaim Your Power and Align with Your Vision.
"Payal is an amazing teacher and great human who really cares. I got so much out of this course. It kickstarted me on a healthier path and got me back in touch with myself. I'm so glad I took part." ~ L.B.
"When you are ready to embrace the warrior goddess in you, Payal is there to guide you. Her energy is firm and fierce. Ever since our first exchange, Payal has been there to share obscure kung fu references, advice and tough love. She asked the questions I was refusing to ask myself and listened without judgement. The Shero Rises program was one of the greatest investments I have made for myself and my family. Payal teaches practical exercises for taking care of yourself, and I have been using those techniques to calm my need to fill up time and space with busyness. It has helped me be a better wife, mother and employee as I wiggle out of my comfort zone and use my voice and inner strength." ~ Chivet Sanchez
"This course has helped me to find my inner voice (which felt lost lately) in the midst of the noise and superficiality of the exterior; it has helped me to gain confidence, to feel that I am not alone in my insecurities, but above all, it helped me discover that however weak we sometimes feel, we are War-like Sheroes, strong and constant in our inner self, and we must honor and claim that power. The course and the guidance of Payal have helped me a lot to achieve that, to be able to raise my voice, to find and follow my true path." ~ I. G. G.
"The Shero Rises Course has been a magical shift for me internally. I have become more aware of my thoughts and emotions. I've also learned that the mind, body and spiritual being are all connected. As someone who was used to searching for an external answer or solution when things don't go as planned, I have realised that a lot of it is to do with how our internal state is. we are so busy looking elsewhere that we don't realise that the light is always within us. Looking within myself and allowing myself to express things creatively such as journalling has made all the difference.
The simple and practical steps given each week in the Shero Rises Course, have helped me with so much internal healing, and but also to deal with every day stresses. This course has definitely been worth it, and is definitely worth the commitment for anyone looking to start. It will uplift you and give you the strength to tackle so much that life throws at you! I want to personally thank Payal for giving me this opportunity, and for always being there whenever I needed that little push to go further." ~ Thadsha R.
"This course of inspiring warrior and creative Payal has blown me away. This course came to me at the moment I needed it the most. I knew what to do somehow, but how to put it into action and how to do all this alone? Just by having read a little about the course and herself, I was inspired enough to start the course. It all clicked. She has guided me through a journey of my inner depths and strengths with so much knowledge, written so sharply and beautifully, so I felt inspired to step up and claim my power. I needed to put that warrior mode on; to listen to my strong emotions, pains and heaviness, and use them to activate my power - like I'm digging out the gold out of a very deep and dark cave. Payal put on a mirror in front of me with her course, not being able to escape it, but to face it. I am so grateful to have been listened to, guided through and having felt this amazing force of support that everyone should have the right to experience. Thank you so much!!!"
~ Marlissa Hilkmann
"The Sheroes Rises course gave me the much needed opportunity to focus on my needs and dreams for the future - both short and long term. It enabled me to visualise what my goals are, what steps I needed to take to progress towards them and most importantly which obstacles were currently preventing me from reaching them. It is rare that we take the time to focus on our individual needs as in everyday life this can be seen as being selfish, but Payal was able to encourage and guide me through to a realisation that if you fail to make time for your inner needs then you can never be truly happy.
The course content included a good range of methods to bring about the changes required, such as visualisation, art work, card readings, daily/ weekly tasks, meditations, yoga poses, on-line group sessions and 1:1 sessions with Payal herself. It therefore provided a support network of others, who although may have had different goals, it was interesting how our ideas and needs overlapped. Payal continued to offer support and guidance long after the course had finished. Her guidance was a significant factor in helping me to reach what and where I am today."

Academic Background:
I hold a First Class BA (Hons) degree in English and an MA in Creative and Professional Writing. I obtained a further MA in Gender, Society and Representation from University College London (UCL). I have also audited 'The Origins and Development of Yoga in Ancient India' - a course in the MA Traditions of Yoga and Meditation at The School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) where I completed a year of my PhD, until force of circumstance pulled me into my dharmic path.
