Some people live their Life for a Cause. And Chitra Sukhu is one such Lady.  She has committed her Life in diligent Service (Seva) to enhance the Lives of so many Others. Her Cause is, “To Enrich, Empower, and Enlighten (E3) through Yoga, Ayurveda, Vedanta, and Meditation.” Her Purpose (Dharma) is, “To raise the Consciousness of the World, so that All may live Happier, Healthier Lives together as a Whole.”

Chitra was born in Guyana to a Family of Indian ancestry.  Although raised mostly in the United States, she also grew up in the many Sivananda Ashrams scattered around the world. Chitra’s parents, Yogi Hari and Leela Mata, joined the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Organization when She was 4 years old. And since the tender age of 4, Chitra has practiced Yoga and Meditation daily. Such immersion in this Classical Culture, and Discipline, has given Her a rather rare orientation for someone in the Western World. Reflecting Inner Wisdom She says, “Even though I come from the Sivananda lineage and respect all Teachers, I don’t claim any Guru. My Guru has been Life – and through Life, I have learned My greatest Lessons.”

Chitra is an experienced Yoga teacher, registered with The Yoga Alliance at the E-RYT 500 level. She holds a Diploma in Ayurvedic Sciences from Kerala Ayurveda and a BS degree in Spiritual Science. However, beyond her impressive qualifications, Chitra is a mystic. She teaches from a state of flow and is established in higher states of consciousness while imparting her wisdom to others.

Chitra teaches and leads many Retreats around the world for adults and children. She has “birthed” the organization, New Age Kids Inc. — a sincere effort to generate well-balanced individuals with a Sense of Self, from an early age. Chitra has created guided meditation CDs, Yoga Nidra CDs, and mantra meditation CDs, for adults and children, some of which have become part of school curricula.  They have proven to reduce stress and confusion for Children, propagating healthy lifestyle, creativity, happiness, and success.

Now that her children are grown, Chitra teaches full-time at various ashrams, studios, and universities worldwide. She leads trainings, workshops, and courses on Vedanta, Tantra, Ayurveda, and Yoga. Her signature course, Yoga Nidra Awak{end} Sleep™, has become a favorite among yoga teachers and those on the spiritual path.
