Viniyoga © FAQ 490 | The Wounded Healer’s Dilemma | 05 - Anchored in others, not in one's own self!
by Dr Kaustubha Desikachar, PhD

The worlds of Yoga and healing often attract wounded healers — individuals whose own experiences of deep suffering, trauma, or personal hardship allow them to offer exceptional empathy, insight, and transformative support to others. Through their personal wounds, they discover a powerful capacity for connection and healing.

Yet many wounded healers face a profound paradox: they can guide others toward healing, but struggle to turn the same care inward. When they overcome these inner obstacles and embrace their own deep healing, they unlock an even greater ability to serve others.

Through this series of five YouTube videos, Dr Kausthub Desikachar explores the key challenges wounded healers encounter when looking within, and how these barriers can be transformed into gateways for true inner healing.

Viniyoga © FAQ 485 | Yoga & Dreams | 05 - Transpersonal nature of Dreams!
by Dr Kaustubha Desikachar, PhD
