# Shala Yoga Haven - Business Description
Shala Yoga Haven is a yoga therapy and integrative psychotherapy centre in Devizes, Wiltshire, offering evidence-based therapeutic services that address mental and physical wellbeing through the intelligent integration of mind and body techniques. Founded by Konika Shankar, a qualified yoga therapist registered with the CNHC and currently training in integrative psychotherapy, the centre serves adults and children of all backgrounds, including marginalised and vulnerable populations.
What distinguishes Shala Yoga Haven is its holistic, person-centred approach that moves beyond conventional yoga classes. Rather than generic instruction, Konika adapts practices to individual needs, drawing from ancient yoga and qigong philosophies combined with contemporary somatic body work and psychotherapeutic enquiry. Sessions work with movement, breath, mindfulness and meditation to help clients develop deeper awareness of how emotions and trauma manifest physically in the nervous system, enabling genuine healing and self-regulation.
The centre offers flexibility through both one-to-one and group sessions, delivered in-person at the Wiltshire studio or via Zoom, making services accessible across Wiltshire, surrounding counties and London. With 15 years' practical experience since 2011, Konika demonstrates particular expertise in trauma-informed care, anxiety and depression management, and grief support. The complementary integration of psychotherapy with somatic practices distinguishes this offering from standard yoga studios, positioning it as a genuine therapeutic resource for those seeking substantial mental health and wellbeing transformation rather than exercise-focused classes.
