Life is Now
The Life School Curriculum
True transformation requires a complete system, not a single technique. Our curriculum is a progressive journey, moving from understanding your inner architecture to mastering the tools that rebuild it. These are the five pillars of mastery we teach inside the Life School community.
Subject 1 The Architecture of Mental Strength (The 4 Cs)
Go beyond willpower. Build an unbreakable framework for your mind. This module teaches you the 4 Cs—Control, Commitment, Challenges, and Confidence—a neuroscience-backed system to rewire your brain for resilience. Become the calm CEO of your own mind, capable of weathering any storm.
Subject 2: The Mental Chatter Detox
Silence the voice in your head that never sleeps. Learn immediate, practical tools to quiet the Default Mode Network (DMN)—your brain's "chatter engine." From the 90-Second Reset to Cognitive Defusion, reclaim your focus, energy, and peace from the tyranny of uncontrolled thoughts.
Subject 3: Rewire Your Childhood Blueprint
You can't fix a structure without understanding its blueprint. This profound subject guides you to courageously and compassionately understand how your childhood conditioning, attachment style, and core beliefs shaped your brain. Awareness is the first step to rewriting the code of your life and freeing yourself from limiting patterns.
Subject 4: Vipassana: The Art of Mental Purification
Move from managing your mind to mastering it. Vipassana is not just meditation; it is a profound surgery of the subconscious. Learn the threefold path of Morality, Concentration, and Wisdom to purify the deepest layers of your mind, so that peace becomes your default state—not a fleeting moment.
Subject 5: The Breathing Engine
Your breath is the remote control for your nervous system. Most of us are breathing wrong, perpetuating stress and fatigue. Correct the most dangerous mistakes (like mouth breathing and "email apnea") and learn powerful pranayama techniques to directly influence your energy, focus, and calm on a biological level.
About Founder: From the Boardroom to the Himalayas
The Search for an Unshakable Self
I had the checklist of a successful life. A thriving business. A home. The car. The accolades. From the outside, it was a picture of achievement. From the inside, it was a silent, echoing cavern."
This was me, Praveen Wadalkar. A master of pretending, so skilled I had even fooled myself. But the relentless pursuit of external milestones left me with a profound, unshakable unhappiness that culminated in a plan to end my life.
At the precipice, a final question cut through the despair: "If I kill myself, who is the murderer?"
The answer was chillingly clear: the murderer was a thought.
This realization sparked a new mission. I left everything behind and went to the Himalayas, not to find myself, but to finally meet the stranger I had become. I became a forensic scientist of my own mind, determined to understand the power of thought.
The Life School is the result of that investigation. It is the bridge I built between the world of corporate achievement and the world of inner awareness. The insights I share are not theoretical; they are forged in the boardroom and tempered in the icy rivers of the Himalayas, validated by both neuroscience and ancient wisdom.
My journey is proof that no matter how broken you feel, you can rebuild. You can move from being a victim of your thoughts to becoming the master of your mind.
THE UNSHAKABLE SELF
By Praveen Wadalkar
You’ve checked all the boxes of a successful life. So why does it feel like a silent, echoing cavern inside?
Praveen Wadalkar had everything—and planned to end it all. Standing at the precipice, a single, chilling question cut through his despair: "If I kill myself, who is the murderer?"
The answer was a thought.
This revelation launched a forensic investigation into his own mind, from the corporate boardroom to the solitude of the Himalayas. The result is this book: a complete, step-by-step system to move from being a prisoner of your past to the architect of your future.

This is not a story about finding happiness. It is a guide to building the unshakable foundation that makes happiness possible, no matter what storms come.
The past is not your prison, but your blueprint. The future is not a mystery, but your construction. The power to build lies in this single, present breath.
