Who We Are

Healing Through
Community & Nature

At Anahata, we believe healing begins when people feel seen, supported, and connected to something greater than themselves. Founded on the conviction that every human being — regardless of age or ability — deserves to live with dignity, joy and wholeness, we create enriching spaces where the elderly and specially-abled can truly thrive.

Our programmes go beyond care — they build community. Through yoga, nature immersion, creative expression and meaningful social connection, we address the physical, emotional and spiritual dimensions of well-being, restoring what isolation and circumstance can take away.

Our Story

A Journey Born from
a Small Garage in Mysore

From humble weekend yoga sessions to a growing sanctuary — the story of Anahata began with one man's belief that community can heal.

2013
The Beginning — A Garage in Mysore

A small group gathered every weekend guided by Kiran, who offered yoga and breathing exercises to the elderly and specially-abled. Within months, students showed remarkable change — less stress, more joy, more smiles.

Returning to Roots — Ravandur Village

Kiran returned to his native village, Ravandur, laying the foundation for his dream: a space dedicated to natural healing. He created a serene, nurturing environment where people could reconnect with nature and themselves.
