In the 4th Episode of "Voice It with Karishma Shah", we dive deep into the personal journeys of a very inspiring individual. We had the pleasure of speaking with Mansi Bajaj, a wellness enthusiast and founder of "The Yoga House" brand.

Mansi's story is one that many of us can relate to. She was cruising through her corporate career until life threw her a curveball. It was during this rough patch that she turned to yoga for solace. Slowly but surely, yoga became a way of life for her, bringing a sense of calm and sanity that she had never experienced before.

To deepen her knowledge and skills, Mansi attended yoga courses in some of the most renowned places like Dharamshala, Bali, and Mysore. She also studied the art of Reiki and alternative healing practices, along with expanding her knowledge in nutritious food and a healthy diet.

All of Mansi's learnings led her to one philosophy - gratitude. She believes that gratitude is the most powerful vibration in the universe and should be at the center of our being. This belief led her to make a foundation "I am Grateful", which celebrates everything good in life and helps the community live consciously and consume mindfully.

But what sets Mansi apart is her candid approach to wellness. She understands that life is not always rainbows and butterflies, and that's okay. She encourages her clients to embrace their imperfections and be kind to themselves. She believes that true wellness comes from within and that it's okay to take it one day at a time.

Mansi's journey is a reminder that life is a journey, and we all have our own paths to follow. So, join us as we dive deep into Mansi's story and discover how gratitude and wellness can transform our lives.
