The story

JP Morgan, Crypto.com, a fintech startup recognised by the Govt. of India, Accenture & Microsoft. Then burnout — the kind that doesn't show up in blood tests. I didn't quit tech. I rebuilt the mind that runs it.

Six years ago, at a yoga program, it struck me that any day can feel like a weekend — it depends on the state of your mind, not the calendar. That idea became The Weekend Yogi, and it has travelled with me from India to Singapore to Abu Dhabi.

I still write code for a living — distributed systems and Web3 data infrastructure. What I teach on weekends is the system that keeps me steady inside that world: breathwork, mental tools, time in nature. No hacks, nothing borrowed from a feed — tools that survive contact with a Monday.

Words back

"Trek was a great idea as a Sunday plan with such an energetic group of people — it felt so good to spend my morning with you all."
