Kiran K. Patel, MA, CYT is an award-winning speaker, coach, spiritual teacher and performer. Her presence has lit up stages (live, radio and TV) and touched thousands internationally for 40 years. She offers a holistic approach to helping you connect with the deepest part of yourself and authentically expressing that so you can make the difference you're here to make--whether it's to transform your life circumstances and relationships or move your audience to action as a speaker.
As a mentor, Kiran brings a gift for calling forth the deepest truth wanting to be expressed. She draws upon decades of embodying deep empathy and authentic expression to anchor speakers in the energy of their message and communion with their audience. Kiran has a unique holistic approach to helping speakers bring their speech to life, as she integrates her personal adeptness with her training in Western and yogic psychology (MA in social psychology and advanced certification in yoga instruction).
Her dedication to nonviolence and spirituality was powerfully demonstrated at the age of twenty-four when she navigated through a sexual assault and death threat in an empowered and humanized way—leading to her assailant backing off and her walking away. This experience, along with recognizing the pervasiveness of abdicating personal power in more benign everyday situations, is the inspiration for her upcoming book, Your Infallible Power Source: Transforming Victim Consciousness.
Kiran's deep care about the suffering in our world led her to earn her M.A. in social psychology in 1989. She has been an ambassador for healing and nonviolence. She is certified as a mediator. With abundant training, along with personal experience as a woman of color in the United States, she has facilitated workshops to heal racism and reduce prejudice. Having completed a year-long leadership program in Marshall Rosenberg’s Nonviolent Communication process, she has taught and coached this process internationally. Her writing on nonviolence and yoga has been published in "India West".
Her gift of bringing compassionate presence to those in crisis has impacted callers on a crisis hotline, mothers of young children who were homeless from having left a domestically violent home and refugees in India after a wave of religious-based pogroms.
Through community organizing, coordinating a victim-offender mediation program and developing the framework for a youth violence prevention institute, Kiran has served to empower and humanize institutions.
As a performer, Kiran has acted and danced on stage and camera, including playing the lead in the premiere of Janaki: Daughter of the Dirt (Click here for video).
Kiran grew up with Vedic Hindu spiritual philosophy and practices. At the age of eighteen, she was formally instructed in Transcendental Meditation. Through the International Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre, she was initiated into the ancient Saraswati yoga lineage in 2003 and received advanced certification as yoga acharya in 2004 (CYT-500). In addition to yoga and Vedanta, she has studied and practiced Science of Mind and Vipassana meditation. Her spirituality goes beyond regular practice and periodic personal silent retreats. It is grounded in a holistic spiritually-based lifestyle that draws upon everyday situations as a spiritual training ground.
Kiran enjoys a simple lifestyle in Northern California. She loves communing with the wilderness, taking in the sound of naturally moving water, bike-riding, dancing, acting and nurturing people with her vegetarian cooking.
