Inner Sight is an activity registered under Hospitality Trust, Auroville Foundation. At Inner Sight, together we gently explore the habitual patterns, reactions and stories that shape our lives, creating the possibility for lasting change.

Through individual sessions, workshops, retreats and courses, we offer compassionate guidance to help people cultivate greater awareness, resilience and inner peace.

Whether you are navigating a particular challenge or simply wish to understand yourself more deeply, our intention is to support you in reconnecting with the wisdom and steadiness that already exists within.

We currently offer two complementary approaches to inner development and wellbeing: Mindfulness and Leela Therapy.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a simple yet profound, secular, evidence-based practice that cultivates present-moment awareness with openness and friendly curiosity. Through regular practice, we begin to recognise the habitual patterns of thinking, feeling and reacting that shape our experience. Gradually, we discover a little more space – space to pause, reflect and respond with greater wisdom and care, rather than reacting automatically.

Our mindfulness program is guided by Helen, one of the few qualified MBSR teachers based in India. Helen also holds qualifications in teaching mindfulness to teenagers. She offers the internationally recognised Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) programme in Auroville, together with a range of mindfulness workshops, retreats and individual sessions.

​Leela Therapy

Leela Therapy is a transformative approach that supports healing, self-inquiry and personal growth. Rooted in the teachings of Ramana Maharshi on self-enquiry, it combines contemplative wisdom with contemporary therapeutic approaches, including Ericksonian hypnosis, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and insights from the Enneagram of Liberation

By bringing together psychological understanding and contemplative practice, Leela Therapy offers a compassionate space to explore beliefs, emotional patterns and deeper questions of identity, supporting both emotional wellbeing and self- understanding.

Leela Therapy is offered by Kardash, one of the few qualified Leela Therapists based in India. He offers individual Leela Therapy sessions both in person and online.
