Today we’d like to introduce you to Beena Patel

Hi Beena, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.

I started The Yoga Movement in 2019 based on my experience in both medicine and alternative healing. Having witnessed the gap between two worlds that are much stronger when combined and see people on a deep, holistic level, I knew this was the gateway for more powerful, long-lasting transformation that people are seeking today. The Yoga Movement was birthed to help bridge the gap between these two worlds through the use of ancient wisdom and alternative medicine.

My personal story is I previously had thyroid cancer when I was 21 and that sent me on an inward journey of healing. While medicine helped to treat the disease symptomatically, my body still felt fatigued and this was my call to look into other modalities of healing that tended to the spiritual and emotional aspects of my being. Through my entryway into the world of alternative healing with yoga, a whole new landscape emerged and this included meditation, reiki, shamanism, intuitive healing, health coaching, and so much more. This was when I started to feel whole in mind, body and spirit. I knew that these tools needed to be available to the mainstream.

With my background as a Physician Associate in Oncology and having worked at some of the top cancer institutions in New York City, including Memorial Sloan Kettering, Columbia University Medical Center, and Weill Cornell Medical College, I know that these tools are applicable to many people. It does not matter if you have a disease or not. The deepest healing happens as you go inward with a journey of self-discovery and a shift in perspective, which then allows for transformation to occur on a deep, cellular level. My work involves a mix of coaching, energy healing, intuitive guidance, and spiritual mentorship – meeting individuals where they are and holding powerful space for their most profound transformation.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?

There have been some struggles, especially with the huge divide there sometimes is between medicine and those who strictly believe in alternative healing. Not all doctors know about integrative medicine or believe that alternative medicine can benefit patients, yet are not often educated on the entirety of different tools available. Those who rigidly believe in the spiritual aspects of healing may be against medicine entirely. I have had my own opinions and perspectives on this, leaning heavily towards one side or another through different parts of my journey. However, today, I have claimed both worlds because my mission is to bridge the divide by creating space for both.

If a person does not believe that alternative healing can be helpful, then their level of consciousness will not make space for other forms of healing and so, thus, it will not work. However, if a person is willing to believe there may be other modalities that could be beneficial on the healing journey, then these tools will serve that person well. By providing ample space for both science and alternative medicine, this is the space where ancient wisdom naturally comes through and allows for that deeper healing to happen.

My job today is to be that bridge and help bring connectedness to both worlds so that they can merge into one.

As you know, we’re big fans of The Yoga Movement. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?

The Yoga Movement is a holistic wellness brand that was established to bridge the gap between science/medicine and alternative healing. It is a mix of energy healing, transformational coaching, intuitive guidance, and spiritual mentorship. It has been founded on the idea of mind-body medicine – that what we believe affects our body and vice versa. In addition, we believe that true long-lasting transformation can only happen when people are treated holistically. During my time working in some of the top cancer institutions in New York City, I found a need for emotional and spiritual healing for many patients as they were not just going through their cancer journey but also going through financial struggles, divorces, and more.

This opened up my eyes to how there were deeper wounds at play that needed space for healing. My work encompasses healing of the mind, body, and spirit with an additional focus on emotional and spiritual healing as these are often the root causes of disease and imbalances in life. The clients I am honored to serve today come with a myriad of intentions, including optimizing their health and well-being, finding their life partner, starting a soul-aligned business and more.

The big vision for The Yoga Movement is to empower individuals all over the world to learn that the greatest healer and teacher is within. By raising their consciousness, they can unlock the codes to perfect health, happiness, wealth, abundance, love, success, and more through their own transformation.

What would you say have been one of the most important lessons you’ve learned?

I have learned that as persuasive as my vision has been (naturally), I am at a point in my journey where I no longer need to persuade people to believe in my perspectives. By simply holding space for people who are ready to meet themselves at this level, the right people come and they come absolutely ready to heal and to transform. I have found both as a healer and entrepreneur that the magic happens when I continue to pour into my mission, provide value, and continue to enhance my own spiritual gifts. And let the rest be taken care of through faith. Faith is some of the deepest work I dive into with clients – in a world where we constantly feel the need to hustle and get out there to be seen, it takes a 180 shift to teach people how to be more and to attract what they desire. And…this is the work that is so satisfying for me and brings me so much fulfillment. This way, healing and transformation do not feel so rigid and challenging but more of a beautiful journey of self-discovery so that you can bring in true fulfillment into your life.
