Vastu ON OUR MIND

Introducing a column that aims to democratise the ancient principles of Vastu Shastra to help you understand and harmonise your spaces better. In the words of columnist and Vastu Architect Maanushri Agarwal herself...over to her!

Health and well being H can be enhanced immensely through the principles of Vastu Shastra. I realised that my home and workspace profoundly influenced my productivity, health and happiness. By applying the ancient wisdom of Vastu Shastra, I was able to harmonise the energy in these spaces to lead a more fulfilling, prosperous and healthy life.

However, my journey into Vastu isn't what you might expect from someone working in this field. Born and raised in New Delhi, I spent most of my life focused on pragmatic, logical thinking approach-from getting an Economics Honors degree to earning an MBA in Marketing & Finance. For the longest time, I believed Vastu Shastra was just superstition, something too rooted in myth to have any place in modern living. I had always dismissed it as superstition, an 'uncool' relic from the past.

Life has a way of changing perspectives.
