It did not manifest as long as he was in India but as soon as he moved to Canada a long time ago and met with one beautiful soul, everything has manifested when he used to connect with ocean, nature, water, fresh air and realized that only nature can help us in transformation because it can deprogram and decondition our mind.

Sanjeev teaches about how we have to pay attention, slow down, and watch our thoughts in order to create a space or word between two thoughts, words, or actions with the help of a breathing meditation technique that can help us to transcend stress, anger, anxiety etc. He helps his clients to settle down their useless thoughts and live in a relaxed mood to discover their hidden potential. Whatever thoughts emotions are arising within us, we have to witness them. Stress, anger etc. happen when we react. Therefore, we have to be responsive rather than reactive.
