Sat Kriya

Sri Devi
26 januari 2025

My college life feels like running a marathon you never signed up for—where late nights, stress, and cramming are just mile markers.  I often felt like there was no time to pause or even take a proper breath in the middle of everything.

During one of those overwhelming weeks, I came across Sat Kriya, a practice that helped me find some relief. What began as a small curiosity turned into a daily practice, helping me feel calmer and more focused, even on tough days.

How Sat Kriya Brought Balance to My college Life

Like many med students, I thought  anything that didn’t directly help my grades or clinical skills wasn’t worth my time.  But the relentless stress took its toll and I realised I needed something to help manage the mental and emotional strain of med school.

One evening, after a particularly stressful day, I decided to try Sat  Kriya to see if it could help. At first, chanting and holding postures felt strange. But as I got used to the practice, I started to notice a difference. For the first time in a long while, my mind felt calm and clear. The weight of my endless to-do lists felt lighter, even if only for a short time.

The Power of Sat Kriya :-

Sat Kriya is more than just chanting. It combines breathing, mantra and posture to help your mind and body feel balanced. Here’s how it has helped me:

  • Mental Clarity:  Chanting “Sat Naam” helps clear mental fog, giving your mind a much-needed break after hours of studying.
  • Stress Relief:  The deep breathing and gentle movements help release tension, leaving you feeling more at ease.
  • Energy Boost:  After a session, I feel energised and ready to power through the rest of my day—better than another coffee.
  • Improved Focus:  Kriya teaches you to centre your attention, which directly improves studying and clinical work.
  • Emotional Balance:  It keeps me grounded during stressful times, helping me face challenges with calm and confidence.


For me, Sat  Kriya isn’t just a practice—it’s my lifeline. There are days when the stress of University feels like it’s too much to handle. On those days, when my mind is racing and I feel completely drained, Sat Kriya is the one thing that helps me find my footing again.  It grounds me, giving me a sense of steadiness and calm that I didn’t think was possible in the middle of such chaos.

What I appreciate most about Sat  Kriya is how easy it is to fit into my life. It doesn’t require a lot of time or fancy equipment. In fact, I’ve practised it just about anywhere—sitting on the floor of my dorm room surrounded by textbooks, in a quiet corner of the library when I needed a break, and even during a few precious minutes in the clinic break room. No matter where I am, it only takes 30 minutes to feel the effects. It’s incredible how quickly the tension in my shoulders eases, my breath slows, and my mind feels clearer.

Through this practice, I’ve learned an important lesson:  self-care isn’t selfish—it’s necessary.  As med students, we’re so focused on our studies, exams, and responsibilities that we often forget to take care of ourselves. I used to think taking a break would set me back, but I’ve realised that even a short pause to breathe, chant, and reconnect can make a huge difference. It gives me the energy and clarity I need to keep going.
