My time at Aastha’s Summer event in 2023 was a transformative experience. The campus and the environment created by the facilitators and the community allowed me to be fully present and experience myself, my thoughts, feelings quietly and mindfully — both at a mental and physical level.

I went into the summer event not knowing what to expect. Through process-work, I was able to reflect on a lot of significant patterns in the way I show up in my relationships, my work and everything I do; the work left me with a sense of clarity and a changed perspective on what my values and beliefs are. I have found power in my emotions and in vulnerability and I’ve been able to bring this vulnerability and reflective ability to my work as a student of psychology and a counsellor-in-training.

My experience of the facilitators and the community reminded me of the power and strength of community, and how all it takes for people to come together is honestly and openly sharing our experiences with each other.

To anyone seeking growth, self-discovery, and a supportive community that fosters vulnerability and reflection, Aastha Foundation’s programs and process work is a very good place to start.
