The Sahaj Foundation endeavours to empower individuals residing in rural communities by nurturing inner peace and guiding them towards purposeful live Read mores. With a focus on personal development, the organization seeks to facilitate communal flourishing following local values and aspirations. Operating predominantly in the villages of Chauntra and Baijnath Blocks within Mandi and Kangra Districts of Himachal Pradesh, it conducts workshops, dialogues, and retreats with a nationwide impact. A significant initiative of the foundation revolves around investigating the transformative capacity of Teal organizations, drawing inspiration from Frederic Laloux's influential work, 'Reinventing Organizations.' These principles underscore self-management, holistic well-being, and evolutionary purpose, to cultivate a culture of inner growth within organizations. Through community projects, the foundation endeavours to reintroduce rural children to traditional knowledge systems, imparting essential values and life skills. By employing immersive workshops that integrate project-based learning, interactive sessions, and meditation, participants are equipped to share their insights with their families and communities, thereby promoting comprehensive development and cultural preservation.
