• Who is Niyam?
  

  

  “Ashley! Look at me!” 🙂  Niyam Bhushan has been meditating since the 1970s. Growing up in his early childhood in Kenya, he is deeply inspired by African tribal masai dance which he feels is meditative and ecstatic. Niyam is also one of India’s leading Design and design-thinking professional. This session is the flowering of his more than 36 years of work as a nationally and internationally-recognized creative professional in design, innovation, and creativity. He is learning and practicing meditative techniques from sufism, buddhism, zen, tibetan, music, and dance, since decades. And briefly once upon a time long ago, from martial arts.
