Meet Mehak

Mehak Wadhwa

An Indian yoga teacher and wellness guide from Delhi, now based in Nakanoto, Ishikawa — offering yoga, aerial yoga, sound healing and wellness retreats.

Indian wisdom, Noto stillness.

From Delhi to Noto

From Delhi to Noto —
with Japan in between.

Growing up in Delhi, Mehak was surrounded by the energy of a vibrant city and the living traditions of yoga. After training in authentic yoga at the Morarji Desai National Institute of Yoga, it was Japan that called her next.

On a full MEXT scholarship from the Japanese government, she came to study Education for Sustainable Development at Yamagata University. That was the first step that changed the entire course of her life.

Her time at Yamagata University was meant to last just 18 months. But meeting Mark — now her husband — changed that plan, and the entire course of her life. Choosing to stay longer in Japan, what she truly fell in love with was onsen, zen, and shizen — hot springs, stillness, and nature.

That one decision led to many more: from Yamagata to Ishikawa, from Nanao to Nakanoto, through the pandemic and the Noto Peninsula earthquake. Ten years later, here she is at The Awarenest — living a dream she had once seen, without ever knowing where it would finally come true.

Philosophy

Authentic Indian yoga,
in the nature of Noto.

Mehak's yoga is not only about movement. It is time to feel your breath, settle your mind, and return to yourself. For anyone seeking authentic Indian yoga in Ishikawa — or a place to find balance near Kanazawa and Noto — Awarenest offers a quiet doorway in.

Yoga, sound, retreat.
