Who is Hari

Founder of Leela Life and creator of the Leela Life Method.

Raised in Kerala, Hari spent three decades as a global management consultant and technology entrepreneur before dedicating his work to one question: how does a person live with genuine alignment — not just outward success?

He teaches through Salons, Circle & Path, and immersive experiences in New York and London.

What Hari Does

Four roles. One coherent voice.

01Speaker
Speaker

Clear, composed, and grounded — Hari leads high-trust conversations that open a different lens on work, success, and the self.

From rhythm and alignment to work and wellbeing — ideas that change how leaders see their lives.

02Teacher
Teacher

Hari teaches through lived frameworks, not tips. Salons introduce the lens. Circle & Path sustains it. Immersive workshops redesign routines across food, movement, mind, nature, intimacy, and art.

03Curator
Curator

Hari handpicks authentic instructors and experts whose work is both rigorous and usable — across nutrition, movement, art, nature, spirituality.

Every specialist is selected from lineages he has personally studied. They bring depth of tradition, not a curated surface.

04Movement Builder
Movement Builder

Leela Life restores rhythm and joy in a world of synthetic living — city by city, conversation by conversation.

Active since 2024. New York, London. By invitation.
