Aparna Sundar

Aparna has been spiritually inclined since a very young age, having been greatly influenced by her maternal grandfather, who was a devotee of Swami Sivananda, and introduced her to the teachings of Ramana Maharishi, J. Krishnamurthi, and Sri Aurobindo, etc. She was first initiated into Reiki in 1998, at the tender age of 12, and thus, began her healing journey.

 

As an introverted child, she took to music and spirituality to help cope with her social anxiety and low-self esteem issues. Music and sound have always been an integral part of her life, from learning Sanskrit mantras as a child, singing Indian classical ragas, playing the violin, and being fascinated with all kinds of percussion instruments such as drums and chimes. Aparna is also currently training in Dhrupad vocals and Hindustani Violin under the esteemed guidance of Shilpa Shanker Narain and Ragini Shankar, respectively.

 

Aparna's sound baths offer a unique style where she blends western harmonies with Indian ragas using crystal singing bowls, other instruments such as gongs, shruti box, tongue drum, etc and Dhrupad style singing. She truly connects with sound on a very deep emotional as well as spiritual level that immediately transports the listener to another dimension.

 

There is nothing in this world that gives her more joy than elevating people's lives through music and sound. Her aim is to make healing practices accessible and affordable to anyone who needs it. She firmly believes in the holistic approach to life, and realizes the importance of the mind, body, spirit connection to overall well-being. She also enjoys creating meditative tracks for everyone to listen to. You can find them streaming on all major music platforms.
