A Sunlit Path

02/05/2025

A Sunlit Path is pausing for the summer—returning in late August.

Our founder, Sudha Suthanthiram, is spending time in the wild and abundant lands of Galicia, Spain—within *The Foundry*, a self-organised space for creative emergence and collective care.

As part of the new stewardship circle at The Foundry, we’re tending to the roots—laying the groundwork needed for new projects, residencies and self-organisation to thrive.

You’re warmly invited to explore more at and www.bravosfoundry.com. If you feel aligned with the Foundry’s intention and would like to visit or co-create, we’d love to hear from you.

We imagine A Sunlit Path growing like a banyan tree—extending through collaboration, sending out new roots, and connecting across wide and fertile ground.

Stay tuned for retreat dates and events. We hope to meet you soon—somewhere along the path, in Auroville or Galicia.

Our latest temple adventure took us to many small treasures in the nearby Villupuram district.

Letting our curiosity lead the way, we explored the temples as a diverse group — some of us captivated by the history, others lost in the Tamil inscriptions and chants, a few drawn to the art and architecture, and others intrigued by the ancient water bodies and medicinal plants surrounding the temples.

From ancient Jain beds carved into hilltops to Chola-era temples still standing steady in the middle of small villages, every stop revealed a new layer, reminding us of the incredible riches in our own backyard here in Tamil Nadu.

We’re so happy to have Matthew Andrews back for a special Kirtan at A Sunlit Path in Auroville! 🌸🎶

As a yoga teacher, musician, and co-director of Shraddha Yoga, Matthew weaves yoga philosophy into his life and music in such a beautiful way. This will be his last Kirtan before he returns to the US, and a chance to soak in the knowing that everything is the Divine and fill our hearts with that truth. ❤️

He’ll also share soulful English songs from his newly launched EP, *Usha*, his offering of hope to the world. Join us on Sunday, March 16th at 6:30 PM for this special gathering.

Join us at A Sunlit Path from March 17-33, 2025 for the last FAOM Methodology spinal therapy training for this season with Fabrice Montagne . Enhance your skills by learning the unique yet simple FAOM Methodology that has healed many people over the last two decades. A certification will be awarded upon successful completion of the training in the innovative FAOM Methodology.

You will learn using the uniquely designed curved table crafted by Fabrice himself. This foldable table will be yours to take with you to continue to hone your craft once the training is complete. It can be dismantled and taken as checked-in baggage on international flights.

Practice on each other during the training and on the last day, bring in someone to work on for a full treatment. Monthly meetings will be arranged (in-person and online) to check-in and help you go deeper in your practice, with no charge for those that have completed the initial training.

Vertebrotherapy is an effective and efficient methodology that is a synthesis of many techniques performed on a specialized curved table to relieve pain and speed up recovery. It involves working along the spine using hand pressure on the back of the body and spine and very gentle mobilization and manipulation of the spine and body without much physical effort. This improves energy flow while releasing pain or blockages in different parts of the body and thus improves one’s physical and emotional wellbeing with minimal intervention.

The training is designed for anyone interested in becoming or already is a therapist in conventional or alternate medicine. The benefits of this method include vertebral alignment; renewed energy and better sleep; relief from: anxiety, stiff neck/ shoulder, migraine, locked joints, menstrual tension, digestive disorders.
