Unmesa: Sacred Spaces - Course on Environmental Wellness
What you'll learn
- Explore how external environments influence internal wellbeing
- Reframe environmental wellness as sacred interconnection, not obligation
- Identify habits that either nurture or fragment your relationship with nature and space
- Reflect on how conscious living begins with reverence — for land, air, space, and silence
Requirements
- Ideally, you should have completed the Unmesa Foundation Course that provides an overview to the 8 Dimensions of your wellness.
Description
Environmental wellness is often reduced to tips on recycling or energy use. But within the Unmesa lens, we expand that understanding — to see our environments, both external and internal, as sacred mirrors.
In the Indic tradition, Vāstu is more than architectural principle — it is spatial harmony, rooted in respect for direction, flow, and balance. And Pṛthvī-tattva, the Earth principle, reminds us that our relationship with the natural world is not passive — it is intimate, cyclical, and alive.
This course invites you to walk through three evolving gateways:
Commitment, not just to environmental actions, but to a sense of sacred responsibility
Conservation, not only of resources, but of the subtle energies that surround you
Abstinence, not as denial, but as mindful restraint from harming the spaces that hold us
Through the stages of Samatva (balance) and Pūrṇatā (wholeness), we reflect on the deeper truth - How we treat the earth often echoes how we treat ourselves.
This course is our invitation to you:
To move beyond obligation and into relationship.
To care for the planet not just as duty, but as kin.
To see your surroundings as sacred - and yourself as part of that sacredness.
May this course meet you gently — and inspire a deeper sense of presence, wherever you are.
Who this course is for:
- Individuals who feel that the environment around them is a major contributor to their stress and anxiety, and want to better understand the fundamentals of what can help them deal with and maintain a balance in their emotional state.
Instructor
Welcome to the Wellness Seekers Academy, a space for reflection, reconnection, and holistic well-being.
Founded in 2017, our mission is to help individuals take a deeply integrative approach to wellness — one that honours not just health, but wholeness. We invite learners to reconnect with themselves, their relationships, their vocations, and their inner stillness through curated learning experiences that blend science, story, and Indic wisdom.
The Academy was conceptualised by Ajay Mahajan and Sadhana Rao, who bring over 60 years of combined experience in global organisations and nearly two decades of work in the development sector. Having witnessed the rising toll of modern work-life imbalances, growing social disconnection, and emotional fatigue — they envisioned a space where wellness is not fragmented, but lived as a connected, conscious path.
Our offerings are now unified under the framework of Unmeṣa — a transformative journey of awakening that draws from the 8 Dimensions of Wellness and is rooted in timeless Indic principles like ātma-jñāna, viveka, pṛthvī-tattva, and samatva. Unmeṣa means a gentle unfolding — and that’s the spirit we carry in all our courses.
We offer:
A Foundation Course in Holistic Wellness, ideal for beginners and facilitators alike
8 Advanced Courses, each focused on a specific wellness dimension
Integrated tools like self-assessments, reflection worksheets, and action plans
A growing ecosystem of practice, learning, and community
Whether you are here to pause, to grow, or to heal — we welcome you.
Let Unmeṣa be your starting point.
The journey begins within.
