Every practice Rakshita teaches is grounded in peer reviewed clinical research. Breathwork, yoga, and meditation are not soft additions to healthcare they are interventions with measurable, reproducible, physiological outcomes.
The research spans randomised controlled trials, meta-analyses, and longitudinal studies published in leading journals including Scientific Reports, JAMA, The Lancet, and the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology. Nothing here requires belief only the willingness to look at what the evidence already shows.
Below are four key findings. The citations are real. The studies are accessible. This is not a wellness blog. This is science in service of a longer, fuller life.
