"Joining Align program in 2026 was one of the best decisions that I took for myself. 😊 Through the sessions and guidance of Koushalya mam and Saravanan sir in the align program, I was able to recognize the patterns in my behaviors that needed to be changed, my self awareness increased, my healing journey which was paused previously had restarted with align. After attending the sessions of Align, I started applying the techniques which I knew earlier, but didn't actively apply, because of these I was able to evolve from my old behaviors and get healed from inside. Dharani mam was so patient, supportive and a cheerleader to everyone who joined align. The 21 days challenge in align was so interesting and much needed. At the end of these challenges, I felt like I was rebuilt into a healed, self aware and stronger version of myself to face the remaining year of 2026. 🥳 I would recommend align to everyone who wants to heal themselves and become a better version of themselves in their personal and professional life. 😎👍 Thank you so much Dharani mam, Koushi mam and Saravanan sir for guiding, supporting and helping us with Align"
"I just wanted to say how much the Beyond the Pages book club has helped me. Before joining, I used to read books on my own but never really reflected deeply on them. This community changed that for me. I absolutely love the prompts and the lives because they help me deep dive into my thoughts and resonate with so many people. I’m a very active participant in the lives because I genuinely enjoy learning from others and sharing my own perspectives too. It truly feels like a safe, empowering space where you can openly express yourself, feel heard, and grow through shared experiences. I’m really grateful to be part of it Special mention to Dharani for being so authentic and genuine! It makes me feel so safe when I talk to her. I am so thankful for Deekshalaya wellness centre. I love the programs they put up. Great job Koushi and team."
"I’m Jayavarthini, and I had spoken to Kousi about 4 years ago. I was tandem feeding my two boys at the time, and it was through her videos that I learned that it was possible to breastfeed two children of different ages. My elder son is now 5 years old, and I gently weaned him from breastfeeding when he was 3.5 years old. My younger one is 3.5 now, and I gently weaned him just last week. Before watching Kousi’s videos, I honestly didn’t know that a mother could breastfeed two children of different ages. Her guidance and ideas gave me the confidence and motivation to follow a gentle approach, and I’m so happy that I was able to successfully and peacefully wean both my boys. Thank you so much, Kousi, for sharing your knowledge and experiences and helping mothers like me.. May many more mothers benefit from your videos and guidance. Wishing you continued success in the wonderful work you do. And lots of love and regards to little Deekshith kutty! ❤️ Take care, Kousi."
"I’ve always loved yoga and was practicing regularly until my delivery. After that, I somehow couldn’t find the time to restart, and I kept waiting for that one fine day to begin again. This program gave me exactly the opportunity and motivation I needed to restart my practice.. I was already familiar with many of the poses, but after a long gap, I had lost my flexibility and was experiencing back pain. Since starting the program, I’ve gradually become more flexible and consistent with my practice. I can genuinely feel that my back pain has reduced significantly, and I’m feeling much better overall. A special thanks to Karthikadevi for guiding us so calmly and patiently, and for introducing us to wonderful stretches and relaxation techniques... This program has been a great kick-start for me to get back into yoga, and I hope to continue my practice using the recordings even in the future. Thank you so much to Deekshalaya Counselling Centre for organising such a wonderful and meaningful program...."
"Just wanted to share that what you are doing is so much more than just a job, it truly makes a difference. Today, I actually took a moment to appreciate myself for the way I handled my younger one’s tantrum and Mithra’s issue. I could clearly see how much I’ve learned and changed through your guidance. Your work has helped me understand my children better and, more importantly, understand myself as a parent. One day, I hope someone appreciates me for the way I handle things and the work I do, just like I’m appreciating you today.. Thank you for making such a meaningful difference."
"I would like to start with a heartfelt thank you to you sir. The first thing when I asked Tariq what you liked about the brain builders classes .. he first said Whenever I wish to talk sir gives me the chance and listens to whatever I say.. From my perspective I also learned to handle different emotions in kids. Especially anger management pausing for a minute is a game changer .. this may not work all the time but still we are trying ourselves to give it a try.. Special thanks to you sir for motivating,guiding and helping us throughout this wonderful journey. My best wishes to each child"
