Meet Poonam

Namaste & Satnam!

My name is Poonam Patel. My roots are from Sanatana Dharma also known as Hinduism. I am fluent in
English, Gujarati and Hindi. I completed my undergraduate studies in Psychology with a minor in
Behavioral Neuroscience at Stockton University. After my bachelors, I pursued a master’s of science in
Mental Health Counseling with a minor in religion and spirituality at Monmouth University.

My passion for aiding others in their healing, growth and transformation lead me to deepen my studies
of the Self and become a Certified Kundalini Yoga Teacher for children, adolescents and adults. I
currently teach for Wellness Meets World, LLC where we are dedicated to empowering youth and families in underserved communities through the practices and principles of Yoga.

My experience with Yoga has been a lifelong one. Through the various paths of Yoga, I have achieved stability and balance through the most adverse times. You will be surprised to know that there are many paths of Yoga. Asana (postures) is just one part of those many paths.

​

Practicing authentic yoga helps us connect to our inner light. It is a means of maintaining a healthy mind,
body and spirit by cultivating stillness and developing self - awareness. Yoga aids in elevating your
consciousness, bringing balance into your life, and channeling your creative energy by stimulating your
nervous system and energy channels.

Come explore these various paths of Yoga with me and see which ones you connect and heal with the
most by dedicating and committing yourself to your own personal experience.
