Hi, and welcome. I’m really glad you’re here. Even meeting in this small way—through these quiet words on a screen—is a meaningful step toward clarity.

My work is dedicated to the principle of Healing the Planet from Within

For over two decades, I was on a journey to understand the patterns of my own life.

For years, I found myself caught in the same exhausting, repetitive emotional loops. The turning point came during a profound three-hour conversation with my uncle. As he shared stories about his parents—their struggles, their coping mechanisms, and their dynamics—a quiet realization hit me: I was living out the exact same patterns. I hadn’t chosen them; I had inherited them as an invisible template.

Desperate for genuine answers, I let go of everything that had once defined my life—enough belongings to fill a four-bedroom house, and eventually even my vehicle.

I moved to India, shaved my head, learned to eat with my right hand, and changed my name to Santosha. I spent two years traveling from the Himalayan mountains to South India, meditating in ashrams, sacred places of samadhi, and contemplative, quiet time at the Ramana Maharishi Ashram in Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, near the great Arunachala Mountain. But it was there I realized a vital truth: You can change your country, your name, and your lifestyle, but your patterns come with you… until you learn to see them.

When the patterns found me in India I suddenly found myself in Sri Lanka at a Nunnery, meditated with non-English speaking Nuns. Having realised the depth of meditation and knowledge in Theravada Buddhism I then spent two years looking for a teacher in nunneries and monasteries in Sri Lanka and Thailand, moving from busy city temples to deep, silent forest monasteries. Living under clear, ancient instructions on the path to enlightenment, I spent hours in Samatha and Vipassana meditation – up to 16 hours of meditation in one day at a Thailand monastery! Finally, I found a teacher in a remote monastery in Sri Lanka and during one 7-day sit there I realised true transformation doesn’t come from fixing surface thoughts—it comes from activating the “Watcher Mind,” the steady capacity to witness our reaction loops as they unfold.

Professional Foundation

To ensure these practices are accessible, safe, and “workplace ready” for the modern world, I ground my instruction in an extensive academic and professional foundation:

• Master of Education (M.Ed)

• Bachelor of Social Science (Counselling & Psychology)

• Post-Graduate Diploma in Human Resource Management (HRM)

• Certified Laughter Yoga Leader

• Kundalini Yoga Teacher

• Certified Emotion Code Practitioner

• Reiki Master Teacher

My Mission: Healing the Planet from Within

Today, I integrate this intersection of science and contemplative experience through the Omarei Academy and my primary community, Healing the Planet from Within.

At the heart of my work is the understanding that global change cannot be forced from the outside; it must start within the individual. By providing the foundational knowledge and daily tools to look beneath the surface, I guide students to step out of autopilot, understand their personal templates, and build a lasting, internal steadiness.

Whether through our corporate programs, the flagship Omarei Mind Training Program, or our year-long mastery paths, I teach a simple, steady, and deeply practical path inward.

Blessings, Santosha
