COURSE
With Ananya Iyer
Why do so many of us seek approval even when it costs us our peace? In this 7-day course inspired by the timeless wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita, you'll explore the deeper roots of people pleasing and discover a more authentic way of living through Dharma—the path of right action, inner alignment, and personal truth. Over seven days, we'll journey alongside Arjuna as he faces fear, self-doubt, attachment, and difficult choices. Through Krishna's teachings, you'll learn why approval can never provide lasting peace, how attachment to praise and fear of criticism shape our lives, and what it means to live according to Dharma rather than other people's expectations. Each lesson combines practical wisdom, self-reflection, real-world application, and guided inquiry to help you move from approval-seeking toward greater clarity, courage, and inner freedom. Throughout this course, you'll learn how to: • Understand the hidden roots of people pleasing • Recognise the difference between Dharma and approval • Respond to fear without abandoning yourself • Set boundaries with compassion and integrity • Become less dependent on praise and less affected by criticism • Cultivate equanimity and steady wisdom • Make Dharma - not approval - your compass for living This course is not about becoming selfish, detached, or indifferent to others. It is about learning how to remain compassionate and connected while staying true to yourself. By the end of these seven days, you'll have a practical framework for making decisions with greater confidence, acting from inner alignment rather than external validation, and living with the clarity and courage that Krishna invites Arjuna to embody. If you're ready to stop organising your life around approval and begin living according to Dharma, this journey is for you. Namaskaram.
