Through meditation and mindfulness, she found a much-needed anchor. Sharing her heartfelt experience, Hina said, 'I was here at Art of Living for a lot of things.

In Sahaj Samadhi, we are taught how to meditate, and this course was wonderful. I'm very, very, very calm, and considering everything I'm going through with my health—I needed this stillness.' Hina embraced a wide range of practices offered at the center, from breath control techniques to the Sudarshan Kriya, Sehej Samadhi, and other life-enhancing programs. 'This place has so much to offer—so many therapies and experiences that bring you close to both nature and yourself,' she said.
