Hello, I am Sapna Bafna, an engineer and holistic health and well-being practitioner.
In 2012, I felt dizzy almost everyday. I went through all possible lab tests, MRI’s and specialists, only to hear from my primary physician that – ” Your problem is annoying, not life threatening. Deal with it”. This was my turning point. I felt unsupported by the medical system. The rebel in me wanted to acquire knowledge and leave no stone unturned in finding a solution. I had to become my own doctor. I gathered knowledge through a variety of courses, read ancient and modern spiritual texts, and equipped myself to understand the human body and mind.
In 2018, I left a thriving career to stay at home with my 2 kids. The seeker and problem solver in me couldn’t sit still or rest. I took two long trips to India to learn Yoga, and got certified by the Government of India. This certification was designed to create yogis who understood authentic Yoga as it was meant to be. I learned in depth how Yoga is a science of right living and its goal is to unite your inner self to higher self. Learning ‘Patanjali Yoga Sutra’, the bible of Yoga, shed a new light on how our mind and its ripples stand between us and our happiness. The definition of Yoga per Patanjali is – ‘Chitta Vritti Nirodha’ – complete cessation of mental modification. Mind is the primary focus of authentic Yoga and body and breath and just a means to the end. My quest to understand the mind even better had started.
I then stumbled upon EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique/tapping) and a whole new world opened up for me. I had no idea that the root of most of my emotional and physical problems were in my past memories and limiting beliefs I made through the years. The small and big traumas, the stress and the anxiety together had put me in a perennial fight/flight mode which had adversely affected my health. With over a year of training and many practice sessions and self healing sessions, I felt like a new person. I was able to completely cure chronic sore throat, tinnitus, rosacea, insomnia, and so many other issues that were holding me back. I realized that the answers to all my problems were right here inside of me and I had the skills to access and heal them.
After EFT certification, I was contemplating if I should go back to a Data Engineering job or find an alternative career. I felt there were way too many people who really needed to know about what I had learned the hard way. I felt compelled to share my knowledge and help them with their problems. I went on to learn several other healing modalities while helping my clients through my venture, ‘ManahShakti’.
Transform Your Life through EFT and Yoga
Yoga has a proven and systematic approach to finding our highest potential. EFT is a powerful, proven, and effective mind and body technique for clearing negative emotions. It can be used to overcome fears, heal trauma, process grief, and clear subconscious blocks that prevent you from reaching your goals. Studies have shown that cortisol (stress hormone) levels drop significantly after a short session of tapping.
With EFT and Yoga, I help you go inwards and tap into your intuition to find answers. When the solution and the desire to take action comes from within, positive and lasting changes are imminent. I empower you with skills that can be used easily, anytime, and anywhere. These simple methods don't require the use of any products. All you need is your mind, body, breath, and attention.
