Hi,

Today feels like a special day… with the fall equinox right around the corner, I have some exciting news to share-

My book, Radiant Rituals, (Shambhala/Penguin Random House) is available for preorder!

I have imagined writing this email for a long time, and now that the moment is here, I am feeling so much gratitude (and also some nervousness) about putting my work out in the world. ​

Radiant Rituals: Ayurvedic and Yogic Wisdom for Deep Self-Care and Inner Strength.

Available December 15, 2026

Is now available for Preorder!

This book has been years in the making, but in many ways its roots go much further back.

I grew up in India surrounded by rituals without thinking of them as rituals. I watched my grandmother and mother use spices, food, rest, prayer, and the rhythms of nature as part of everyday care. I spent summer vacations in yoga camps, studied Sanskrit and the Bhagavad Gita, and absorbed an understanding that our wellbeing was never separate from how we lived.

Then I entered the corporate world, sat in boardrooms, made presentations, and interviewed C-level executives across the banking and financial services industry.

Like so many women I work with today, I learned to push, achieve, and keep going even when my body and mind were nudging me in a different direction. I ignored my intuition, didn’t have language for it, and made decisions I later regretted. There was always a silver lining, as I see it now.

Through burnout, grief, motherhood, miscarriage, loss of loved ones, identity shifts, career transitions, moving countries and multiple relocations, relationship breakdowns and breakthroughs - I’ve been through a whole gamut of life transitions. I eventually returned to the wisdom I grew up with and began to realize what has now become the main theme of my work and life. Yes, life is always going to be full of transitions and the ebbs and flows, but if you have a foundation of rituals and practices to lean into, an understanding of what holds you during these transitions, and a way to move forward.

That is the heart of Radiant Rituals.

It brings together Ayurveda, yoga philosophy, and modern science, along with the lessons I’ve gathered through my lived experience and more than a decade of guiding women toward a more grounded, sustainable approach to well-being.

This book is for anyone tired of striving harder and ready to live with rhythm, regulation, vitality, and inner knowing.
​
Inside, we explore rituals to help you -

• Cultivate a more intuitive relationship with rest
• Nourish your body in alignment with your unique rhythms and the seasons.
• Regulate your energy and move through stress with greater awareness.
• Work with breath and life force energy to create clarity and vitality.
• Practice surrender and release patterns, beliefs, and identities that no longer serve you
• Reconnect with your intuition and support the life that you really desire.

Rituals are not unconscious but conscious and intentional, bringing reverence to ordinary moments, waking up, eating, resting, transitioning, grieving, beginning again.

Helping us connect to ourselves.

A little note about why preorders matter so much… (Before becoming an author, I didn’t fully understand this either.)

Pre-orders are one of the most meaningful ways to support a new book before it enters the world.

The more pre-orders a book receives, the more it signals to booksellers that there is interest and demand, which can help determine how widely the book is stocked and supported at release.

The people most likely to preorder a book are often the people who already know the author and her work.

So this is the part where I turn to you, my dear community.

Many of you have been here with me for years through my meditations, teachings, 1-1 work, courses, and all the different seasons of this work.

If something I have shared has helped you slow down, listen inward, care for yourself differently, or remember your own wisdom, preordering Radiant Rituals is one of the best ways you can help me bring this work to more women.

If there is someone you love or know who is navigating burnout, grief, transition, reinvention, or simply questioning whether there might be another way to live, I would be deeply grateful if you shared the book with them too, perhaps even ordering it for them as a gift.

Speaking of gifts… When you pre-order, I have some gifts for you… (All available for you today.)

As a heartfelt thank-you for preordering, I created three complimentary digital guides that you can begin using right away -

Your Complimentary Pre-order Gifts

• Slow mornings and Deep Rest - Rituals for beginning and ending your day with more calm, nourishment, and nervous system support.
• Detox from External Noise - A guide to protecting your energy, reconnecting with your inner voice, and cultivating steadiness in an overstimulated world.
• Radiant Rhythms - A companion journal for seasonal reflection, intentional ritual, and reconnecting with your own inner rhythm.

You’ll also be invited to join me for Wintering Well: A Live Solstice Ritual Experience on December 21 via zoom.

We’ll gather as a community to celebrate Radiant Rituals and move into the winter season through reflection, restoration, Ayurveda, yoga philosophy, and creating personalized rituals and rhythms for the weeks ahead.

I’m also immensely grateful for the people who have already read the book and offered their words of support -

This book is deeply personal to me, as I mentioned before - it holds my roots and the transitions: my grandmother's kitchen, my loving parents, losing my mother, relocating countries and cities, miscarriage, becoming a mother, burnout and beginnings, career transitions, emotional abuse and recovery, divorce, and identity shifts.

The ancient teachings I grew up with unknowingly became the scaffolding of my life and this book. This is what I have learned and walked alongside women I’ve mentored for more than a decade.

At its heart, Radiant Rituals is like a guidebook and an invitation to remind ourselves that there is always another way- one that helps us come back to our mind, body, emotions, rhythms of nature, to ritual, and finally to our own wisdom.

After so many years of dreaming about this book, today's the day you can take the first step in it becoming yours.

Thank you for being here and being part of this community. I am so grateful to celebrate with you.

Love and gratitude,

Radhika
