Savitri, renowned Meditation Master and visionary, was born in India and grew up in Bombay until the age of 7, when she moved to America with her family. Her inspirational mother was of Italian-American descent and her father was Indian. Savitri began her journey as a 25 year-old housewife, praying for truth and understanding for the incomprehensible events of her life. When she was 11 she had a serious head injury and, as a teenager, she suddenly lost both parents in a plane crash. A few years later she experienced the shocking murder of her sister. Shortly thereafter her best friend died of a fatal illness. This chain of events led to life-threatening illnesses and many near-death experiences. Her sincere desire for truth steered her to find true love within and discover, refine and practice the heart-focused Align and Shine Snack techniques, for over 30 years. Since 1995, it has become her life’s work to share Heartfull™ Meditation and Heartfull™ Lifestyle. The Align and Shine Snacks helped her to come alive and shine, blessing her with her beautiful, musical daughter, Zenia.

Today, she teaches meditation, yoga philosophy, pranayama, nutrition and lifestyle habits to welcome the Soul. She has developed a one-of-a-kind meditation method that came from her own connection with her Soul. Heartfull™ Meditation provides practical techniques to help students connect their bodies and mind to their inner wisdom, Light and Love. Savitri is also a profoundly powerful energy worker, medical intuitive, psychic healer and khundalini master. Savitri and her husband, Aadil Palkhivala, created Alive and Shine Center, a world renowned yoga studio, and are the founders of the Purna Yoga College, creating extremely high standards of yoga and meditation instruction for the modern world.
