Sri Madhu Sai Deevanapalli - Bio

Sri Madhu Sai Deevanapalli (RPC, C-IAYT, E-RYT 500, BECE) is a former monk, registered clinical counsellor, certified yoga therapist, experienced yoga teacher, and Vedic astrologer with over 30 years of experience in holistic healing. He served as a monk for 13 years and integrates Eastern philosophy with evidence-based therapeutic practices to help individuals develop emotional intelligence, resilience, and inner happiness.

Madhu Sai’s spiritual journey began at 18, following a personal tragedy that led him to seek answers to life’s fundamental questions. The loss of his father ignited a quest to understand the nature of suffering, relationships, and the purpose of life. This journey took him to the Satyaloka Monastery in Southern India, where he was consecrated as a monk by Paramacharya Sri Sankara Bhagavadpada. His experiences at the monastery and involvement in Master Sri Bhagavan’s mission significantly contributed to his inner liberation, a journey that many can relate to.

Madhu Sai has travelled to over 20 countries, studying various cultures and refining his unique Integrative Wellness Model, which blends time-tested Eastern wisdom with modern therapeutic techniques such as emotion-focused mindfulness, trauma informed cognitive therapy, solution-focused therapy, shadow work, and psychoanalytic and psychodynamic therapy. His system addresses mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual dimensions, empowering individuals to holistically heal and align their lives.

Madhu Sai has founded meditation centers, co-founded The Happyness Center in Canada, and developed numerous self-awareness programs in schools, universities, and corporations. His trauma trained workshops, particularly in Indigenous communities, focus on helping individuals recover from trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other mental health challenges. He also works with clients dealing with health issues such as autoimmune diseases, cancer, and infertility.

As a guest lecturer at Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, BC, Madhu Sai is on a mission to share his knowledge and guide individuals toward higher consciousness. His life’s work is dedicated to helping people understand the root causes of their issues and providing strategies for lasting personal growth, self-awareness, and happiness. His mission is to inspire and motivate others to reach their full potential.
