  • What Dr. Deepak Chopra Says About The Way of the Goddess

    "I very highly recommend The Way of the Goddess. It has a lot of very practical wisdom that we desperately need in this world right now. I think anyone and everyone, male or female, can benefit from this beautiful book, with all the illustrations, rituals, practices, insights, and the stories, both personal and mythical. I plan to re-read it myself." — DR. DEEPAK CHOPRA, world-renowned pioneer in integrative medicine and New York Times bestselling author of 94+ books

  • Named one of the 11 Best Advice Books of 2017 by The Cut – New York Magazine

    “The best advice I had all year was to learn the principles of the Ayurveda Way and take away as much or as little of it as you can. It will change everything in your life for the better. Basically, it means working with the Earth’s natural rhythm: sleeping when it’s dark, waking when it’s light. Eat with the seasons. This lifestyle leads to balance, better sleep, better digestion, everything. Give it a shot.”

This Is Your Sacred Space If You're...

A therapist or counselor carrying your clients' pain home with you

A coach or consultant who helps everyone else transform but struggles with your own blocks

A healer or energy worker who gives so much you forget how to receive

A yoga teacher or wellness professional burning out while trying to hold space for everyone else

A conscious leader or changemaker trying to serve the world without destroying yourself in the process

Anyone called to help others but exhausted from giving from depletion instead of abundance




The Problem You're Facing:

You know what it's like to help everyone else while falling apart inside.

You understand that self-care is important, but when you're in service to others, it's the first thing to go.

You've read the books, taken the courses, and tried the practices—but something is still missing. The exhaustion returns. The depletion creeps back in.

You're not broken. You just haven't had the right support.

Welcome Home to the Part of You That Gives From Abundance

Our logo—the Sun encircled by earthen lamps (diyas)—represents the inner fire we all carry to sustain ourselves while we serve others.

At The Ancient Way, our mission speaks directly to your heart: To help you rediscover the wellspring within—your inner source of strength, wisdom, and renewal—so you can keep helping others without losing yourself in the process.


What Makes The Ancient Way Different:

  • 1. Authentic Lineage-Based Teachings

    Not watered-down wellness trends, but authentic practices from unbroken oral traditions passed down from teacher to student for thousands of years. Ananta carries forward the spiritual lineage of Baba Ayodhya Nath Sinha and ancestral Ayurvedic wisdom from her own maternal lineage, spanning many generations.

  • 2. Lived Experience, Not Just Theory

    Ananta has spent 14+ years not just studying these practices, but living through the messy, beautiful process of using them to heal her own deep wounds—ancestral trauma, disordered eating, relationship patterns, and the exhaustion of serving others from depletion.

  • 3. Proven Transformation

    Our programs have helped hundreds of practitioners move from burnout to sustained service, from people-pleasing to authentic boundaries, from carrying others' pain to channeling healing wisdom, with a 99% overall program recommendation rate.

  • 4. Built for Real Life

    These aren't practices for monks in caves. They're for therapists with full client loads, coaches running businesses, parents holding families together, and leaders changing the world. Ancient wisdom that actually fits into your real, busy life.

  • 5. Spiritual Community That Truly Understands

    You're not the "weird one" here. You're part of a spiritual family of fellow healers, therapists, and conscious leaders who know what it means to hold space for others while needing to be held yourself.

"You can't lead others to freedom while you're still carrying chains. Heal yourself first. Then watch how naturally you lift everyone around you."


This Is Your Invitation To:

  • GIVE FROM OVERFLOW INSTEAD OF EMPTINESS. Stop burning yourself out and learn to serve from a replenished wellspring.

  • STAY GROUNDED WHILE HOLDING SPACE FOR OTHERS. Maintain your own center even when supporting others through their chaos.

  • FIND YOUR SPIRITUAL COMMUNITY AMONG FELLOW GIVERS. Finally belong somewhere where your path makes sense.

  • LEARN PRACTICES THAT ACTUALLY FIT INTO YOUR REAL LIFE. No more guilt about meditation you're "supposed" to do—just practices that work.

  • TRANSFORM YOUR WOUNDS INTO THE WISDOM THAT FUELS YOUR SERVICE. Your healing journey becomes the foundation of your most powerful work.

Interview required

Namaste. I'm Ananta.

I know what it's like to help everyone else while falling apart inside.

For over 14 years, I've dedicated my life to mastering the ancient healing sciences of Ayurveda, Yoga, and Vedanta—not just studying them, but living through the messy, beautiful process of using them to heal my own deep wounds. I'm a spiritual teacher, Ayurveda practitioner, 10-time award-winning author (The Way of the Goddess, The Ayurveda Way), and host of the True to Yourself podcast. But what qualifies me to guide you isn't just my credentials or the unbroken lineages I've trained in.

It's that I've been exactly where you are.

I've experienced the exhaustion that comes from giving everything to others while neglecting myself. I've felt the weight of ancestral trauma, the pain of disordered eating, the confusion of relationship wounds, and the depletion that happens when you're everyone's healer but nobody's taking care of you.

I've sat in therapy offices, coaching sessions, and healing circles wondering: "If I know all this spiritual wisdom, why do I still feel so empty?"

Here's what changed everything for me: Learning that self-care isn't selfish when you're called to serve others. It's essential. The ancient sages knew this. They developed precise practices not for monks in caves, but for householders—people with real lives, real responsibilities, and real challenges.

Today, I bring these time-tested practices to therapists burning out in private practice, coaches struggling to maintain boundaries, healers who give so much they forget to receive, and conscious leaders trying to change the world without destroying themselves in the process.

I carry forward the spiritual lineage of Baba Ayodhya Nath Sinha and the ancestral Ayurvedic wisdom of generations of healers who understood that true service comes from abundance, not depletion.

This work isn't just my profession—it's my sacred responsibility to ensure that the helpers get helped, the healers get healed, and the givers learn to receive.

Because the world needs you sustained, not depleted.

Voices From Our Healing Garden

What Our Graduates Are Saying

Shweta Bhatt, Artist and Former Consultant

"I was reminded over and over again that my agency is my first blessing. Though most people will give me a prescription, my body is not a problem to be solved. My health is not something to be fixed, but instead to be understood and honored.

Ananta saw within me a light I had dulled. She reached out to that light. She comforted that light. She empowered that light to shine. I began to speak. I began to write. I began to share. I declared myself the artist, the poet, the storyteller that I am.

Ananta’s heart and vision are supplemented through the team of people and the intention through which she connects us all. This team, this program is a community, it is a garden. The fragrance of each person mesmerizes alone but surrenders itself to the much greater melody of the garden as a whole. Ananta and her team redefine love, wholeheartedly seeing each individual and holding the stories of each sacred."

Nathan Medlock, Yoga teacher, Ayurveda Wellness Ambassador, Lifelong Student

"Ananta can be described as truly embodying her work. She naturally radiates a caring, wise, and loving aura. She clearly has a deep mastery of her teachings and from the moment you begin taking her classes you will be receiving knowledge. The understanding and scholarly communication of Ananta is matched by her compassion and humility. You can tell Ananta sincerely cares about her students and their ability to process and effectively practice what she teaches.

I would recommend studying with Ananta and her teachers because the topics being taught are life changing, from the inside out. There is a nearly tangible aura of love and acceptance shared amongst her and her contemporaries as well as with the students in her classes. Despite the large and vast ocean of knowledge that can appear daunting at first, the classes are structured very clearly, the communication about what is expected is exact, and the immersion into each topic is easily digestible to the human intellect."
