Reignite
Burnout does not arrive suddenly. It builds quietly — through years of overextension, chronic activation, and a gradual loss of the capacity to recover. Reignite is an 8-week group yoga therapy programme designed to help you understand those patterns, restore your nervous system, and rebuild the capacity to rest, re-engage, and function at a pace that is actually yours.
Burnout is not simply tiredness. It is a depletion of the nervous system accumulated over time, often accompanied by a loss of engagement, emotional exhaustion, and a diminished sense of agency. This programme works with those underlying patterns directly, through structured therapeutic practice rather than quick fixes or surface-level relaxation. Sessions run in a small group of no more than 12 participants. The approach is grounded in yoga therapy and informed by research — including Karthikeyan's own MSc research on burnout in the Netherlands.

What people say
More than four years ago I came across Karthikeyan via a friend when he was offering a trial yoga course for burnout. I was in a bad state, a burnout that lasted for years. Thanks to the yoga practices I learned from Karthikeyan I was able to restore my health quite rapidly.
RakaKarthik and Mindful Yogis played a vital role in my burnout recovery. His yoga therapy programme took about 8 weeks and it helped me deal with my anxiety and inability to sleep. What I most appreciated is that I also received very personalised advice 1:1 which was specific to my own challenges. After the programme I continued to do the morning session combinations that Karthik showed the group and it helped me further balance myself spiritually and physically. Karthik's guidance was one of the main drivers of my recovery. Thank you for all the support and helping me sleep and feel better.
Olia Gladkova-BurgessWhilst following the course, I experienced an improvement of my sleep and energy levels. I also found myself to be calmer and more balanced. Karthik gives personal attention to his clients, by not only addressing the symptoms but also the root causes. He integrates breathwork, mindfulness and relaxation as well as practical discussions from Yoga Philosophy that address unhealthy patterns and how to learn from them.
Biljana Frints-TrajanovskaWhat is included each week
Before the first live session, you will complete an intake form and a short baseline self-assessment. During Week 1, I meet with you individually to understand the depth of your depletion and personalise how you approach the practices. A second individual consultation in Week 5 allows me to track what is restoring and adjust your practice accordingly. The programme provides structure. The pace is yours.
How the programme works
Burnout recovery begins by undoing the habits that created it. The first two weeks of Reignite are not about adding more — they are about learning to do less, better. The nervous system needs restoration before it has the capacity to regulate. Once that foundation is in place, the programme moves into understanding the patterns that led to depletion and building the tools to keep it from returning.
- 01Weeks 1 and 2 — Foundation: establishing a grounded daily routine and understanding burnout as a pattern of accumulated overload — something the nervous system can learn to recover from
- 02Weeks 3 and 4 — Recognition: exploring the physical and emotional patterns that sustain depletion, and restoring connection with the body and breath
- 03Weeks 5 and 6 — Regulation: building practices that restore nervous system capacity and begin to shift habitual patterns of chronic activation
- 04Weeks 7 and 8 — Integration: developing sustainable tools for rest, recovery, and daily self-regulation, and building a practice that continues beyond the programme
This programme is for you if
- You are experiencing persistent exhaustion, emotional depletion, or loss of engagement
- You want a structured, body-based approach to recovery rather than surface-level stress relief
- You are willing to practise consistently for eight weeks
- You want to understand the patterns underlying your burnout, not just manage symptoms
- You are interested in evidence-informed methods grounded in classical yoga and yoga therapy
What you will have by the end
The aim is not to remove all difficulty. It is to build your capacity to face it steadily, without being overwhelmed by it.
