Sometimes something keeps repeating. Some patterns show up in life, others show up in the body. Soulvyom brings together two distinct ways of working with them Two different methods, two practitioners. One shared interest in what keeps repeating beneath the obvious.
The next relationship was supposed to be different but still felt strangely like the old one. You had decided that this time you would choose differently. You would speak sooner, not compromise and stop waiting or giving another chance. And yet when the moment came, when the time comes, you still end up doing the same old.
Or the repetition may have nothing to do with a partner. It may be the decision you keep postponing, the opportunity you step back from, or the role you somehow keep taking on wherever you go.
Possibly you already know the loop, maybe you can even explain where it comes from. But somehow, knowing has still not changed what happens when you are actually inside it.
Or maybe it is about your body.
You thought that with discipline, a new treatment, a better diet or changes in lifestyle, you would finally feel better. And yet, inspite of better reports and everything being ‘under control’, you still feel miserable.
You are functioning well, but your body doesn’t feel like your own. Work gets done, life continues but the fatigue remains, the inflammation still flares and the sugar refuses to give you a break. And you cannot seem to understand why?
You already know a lot, have understood and promised to yourself that you will change. You have made the effort. But something is still operating outside what you consciously understand.
That is usually where our work begins.
We are Lt Col Abhinav Sharma, SM (Retd) and Lt Col Smitaa Kotwal (Retd) . Our own routes into this work have been quite different.
Abhinav's work moved increasingly towards the relationship between emotional patterns and the body, loosely termed the mind-body connection, eventually becoming Somashadow .
Smitaa's work developed around the patterns that repeat through choices, relationships, roles and the way we move through life, which became Mokshara .
Soulvyom is where these two bodies of work sit together.

Different routes. One larger equation.
Most people who reach us have already tried to make sense of it. So, the question is less about whether there is a pattern and more about where it keeps appearing.
The pattern is in your choices, reactions, relationships or the situations you keep finding yourself in. And things seem to be different at first but later leave you with a strangely familiar feeling.
The setting might be different and you decide that this time you will choose differently. Yet when the situation arrives, the old response returns.
Maybe you still end up carrying the relationship, or staying after trust has gone. Or perhaps you keep postponing a decision until circumstances make it for you.
You reach a point where something could change but still somehow step back. You become the responsible one wherever you go. You know a chapter is over but remain internally tied to it.
You see and understand the pattern later, but not while you are inside it.
The pattern keeps returning in the form of symptoms, reports improve but you don’t feel better. The body seems to have a mind of its own and refuses to behave despite everything you are doing.
You have changed the diet, been regular with medication and become more disciplined. You may have researched and understood your condition. But the fatigue remains, the inflammation returns, sugar fluctuates, thyroid continues to demand attention, or a new symptom appears.
Maybe you also recognise how much you hold in, continue when tired, stay quiet when something bothers you, avoid asking for help, control your feelings or tolerate things too long.
Somashadow explores the emotional and psychosomatic patterns expressed through the body, while your medical care continues.
The question isn't only
what is happening.
It is also where the pattern keeps returning.
Someone may come to us because of a health condition, a relationship, a decision they cannot make, a reaction they keep repeating, a Tarot question or simply the feeling that something in their life does not make sense.
We begin there. Then we look more closely.
We stay with what actually happens.
What happens when you are disappointed? What do you do when somebody is angry with you? What do you keep quiet about? Who do you become around certain people? What happens in the body when you feel cornered, judged, responsible or unable to say no?
The pattern usually becomes clearer through these ordinary details than through a label such as people-pleasing, abandonment, anger or stress.
A pattern or a condition does not automatically tell us what is happening emotionally. Neither does a difficult relationship, a Tarot card or a Bach Flower state.
We look at your history, the situations that keep repeating, the role you tend to take, what you feel but do not express, and what you continue doing even when another part of you knows better.
The interpretation has to fit the person in front of us.
Sometimes the responsible one is also deeply afraid of disappointing people.
Generosity can carry resentment underneath it.
Independence can become a way of never having to depend on anyone.
Discipline can quietly turn into control.
Staying calm can become a lifetime of swallowing what should have been said.
These are not conclusions that we will hand over and be done with it.
The work becomes useful when you begin recognising the pattern for yourself, including when it starts appearing outside the session.
Sometimes the first shift is physical. Sometimes it is emotional. Sometimes it is simply being able to see clearly what had remained unnamed for a long time.
You gave me a new insight into my life.
Because of my physical appearance, I used to feel uncomfortable going to public places and was not confident enough to take charge of my life.
During the counselling session, you listened attentively to my concerns and identified the core reasons for my emotional fluctuations. The Bach Flower Remedies helped me reduce anxiety, improve my mood and become more self-aware.
Emotionally and mentally, I am in a much better state.
What I was feeling and struggling with was not unreal.
At times we get stuck somewhere. A place which is not there, a state not visible at least to others. And in my case, it was not visible even to me.
Then came Soulvyom to make me realise that what I was feeling and struggling with was not unreal.
From denial to acceptance, and then being able to move forward without fear and guilt, changed the situation from worst to good and then to better.
I am doing considerably better.
Thank you for the support over the last few days. I was really in a tight spot with changing countries, office struggles and health issues.
Whatever you did, I am doing considerably better. I still have some feeling in my chest, but it is not even close to the pain from last week. The leg pain is almost gone now.
I got greater self acceptance.
I did 8 sessions with Abhinav on a friend's recommendation. She had told me about Shadow healing and how it can help me handle anxiety, stress and be more acceptable of my own personality.
She didnt tell me that I will be thinking on a much broader horizon, which I do now after these sessions with Abhinav.
Greater self acceptance is the biggest learning for me out of this exercise. It has helped me in understanding my trigger points and emotional reactions.
The emotional integration is a definite improvement. I will continue with Abhinav's coaching in regular intervals to touch base with my learnings and myself.

We welcome you to Soulvyom. We’re both retired Indian Army officers with over 20 years of individual service.
We approach healing with the same precision, discipline, and refusal to perform that defined our military careers. This is your personal portal to Spiritual Healing, Learning, Self-Discovery, and Transformation.
We work at the root — the emotional imprint, the karmic loop, the unconscious pattern that keeps showing up in your life.
Whether you're dealing with a chronic health condition, stuck in a repeating relationship dynamic, or simply curious about what tarot or energy healing might reveal — we meet you exactly where you are.
Two unique qualities set us apart in the healing community: A journey of inner transformation rooted in experience and balance.
As a couple, we bring the balance of masculine and feminine energy (Yin and Yang). Together, we offer a harmonious and well-rounded approach, drawing from diverse spiritual healing modalities to support transformative journeys.
We've walked this path ourselves, facing challenges like childhood wounds, difficult relationships, and professional hurdles. These experiences have shaped us into compassionate guides, deeply attuned to the struggles of transformation.
Focuses on the emotional blueprint of chronic illness through psychosomatics, shadow work, and Bach Flower Remedies.
Combines ancient Mokshpattam diagnostics with modern Tantra to map and break repeating karmic patterns.
We also offer accessible entry points including tarot readings, Akashic Records sessions, Reiki and energy healing, Bach Flower consultations, and Women's Circles. Many people start with these services and then discover the deeper work that calls to them.
Whether you're exploring for the first time or ready for transformation — you're welcome here.
Spiritual healing has a lot of noise — vague promises and surface rituals. We built Soulvyom around principles we refuse to compromise.
We don't just soothe symptoms. We trace the root — the original emotional imprint, the unconscious pattern. But we understand that sometimes you need relief first. We work at the pace that serves you.
We map the pattern first — then we intervene. Whether through a tarot reading, an energy session, or deep psychosomatic work, clarity comes before transformation.
We work with emotions, body, energy, and intuition as an integrated whole. We don't choose between psychological and energetic — we use what works.
Curious about tarot? Start there. Ready for deep shadow work? We can do that too. Your journey is yours — we're here to guide, not dictate.
This is a non-judgmental space where honesty and kindness coexist. You'll receive clarity — delivered with care.
No fear-based selling. No manufactured urgency. We believe in the work and let it speak for itself.
Whether you're curious about a tarot reading, seeking relief from chronic illness, or ready to break a pattern that's been running for years — choose your pathway and reach out. We offer free consultations to help you understand which service might serve you best.
