Our Philosophy
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The Evolve Totem of Health
HEART
“Every action, every thought, every feeling, is worthless if the mind is not connected to the heart.” - Sulekha Pande
Our Dream. It is the faith that is the guide for everything in life. Everything that came before and everything that will come after is held in the heart. It is the confidence and trust that flows in the form of intuition. Your belief system and compass. Often passion and purpose is connected to the heart center.
Learn to FEEL into things - run the mind’s intelligence and interpretation by the heart before you RESPOND. Things are not always as your mind or ego projects them to be.
