Description
I am an electrophysiologist who did neuro monitoring during Spine Surgeries in USA for 20 years. I am American Board certified for that service.
I am also certified in Kerala, India as Yoga Teacher since 1986. I am a Reiki Master who does energy healing work. I like giving a healing bodywork. I have participated in ten day Vipassana meditation sessions twice in India.
I make good Indian curries/food. I post pictures of recipes regularly on my Facebook group page called Curry Heaven.

I like cleaning and organize stuff for you. I like gardening and helping you with any chores in the house. I love spending time with children ( It is divine time with kids because they are like Gods).
I have been an aircraft technician hence I am inclined to fix things technically.

In my life my focus is on Spine-Health and want to heal people who are suffering with body pains. Spine surgery should be avoided as much as possible.

I associate myself with Jiddu Krishnamurti (JK), a great philosopher who once was the head of the Theosophical Society. I am interested in participating in discussions on meditation.

JK quotes: The importance of ending thought to observe further, that very importance brings about the ending of thought.
( It is as simple as that. Don't complicate it)

I am born in India and later on, became American Citizen. I have lived in Jamaica and traveled in France, Czech Republic, Austria, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Slovania, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia, Macedonia, Russia, Georgia, Combodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Turkey. I traveled some of these countries with the help of Couchsurfing and/or Workaway. I have good references from them.

I love hiking mountains and play Tennis.

Education:
Diploma in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering, Kerala, India
Certified Yoga Teacher from Sivananda Tradition at Kerala, India
Certified Tennis Coach Level 1 by Van Der Meer Tennis Academy, Hilton Head, South Carolina, USA
Graduated in Computer Information Systems, North Carolina, USA
American Board Certified in Neurophysiological Intraoperative Monitoring
Graduated in Behavioral Sciences at Bluefield College, WV, USA
Undergone Yoga Therapy Training from Mr. Karunakar, Iyengar Tradition, Mangalore, India

I am honest and sincere and helpful.
I call myself a minimalist who likes to live a simple life.
Cleanliness is next to Godliness is my Motto :-)

I spent two weeks here and it was one of my best Workaway experiences. The work is not much and you can do it without pressure. Sulia has been assigning me the jobs and she was very kind with me.
This is a group of nearly 15 and everyone is conscious and spiritual who look after each other. I miss each one of them. We all did Yoga together and… read more

Madhu impressed us from the very beginning. He is a very mindful, loving, and highly intelligent person with a wealth of experience — both medically and as a yogi, thanks to his various yoga teacher trainings. This, in particular, left a deep impression on us. “Love on two legs” was the most fitting feedback from our residents.
His cooking skills… read more were excellent, and his Indian dishes were met with great enthusiasm. We wish him a peaceful and fulfilling journey ahead, where he can continue to develop his talents as a yoga teacher and coach. He also led our morning practice wonderfully, and we would be delighted to welcome him back anytime!

Here are a few personal voices from our residents:

1. Madhu was a very grounded, calm, and pleasant companion. A gifted cook of Indian cuisine! A wonderful yoga teacher and guide. Always happy and willing to help and support wherever he could. It was easy to communicate with him in English, and it was a joy to have him around. 

2. Madhu is a very considerate person. He completed his tasks reliably and conscientiously. He also happily stepped in as a substitute yoga teacher for our morning practice. His Indian cooking brought us great joy. We wish him all the best on his path ahead. 

3. Madhu integrated himself very quickly here with his calm and attentive nature. It was a real pleasure to have conversations with him, and he showed genuine interest in everything around him. He has a great sense of humor, and we shared many laughs together. He is mindful and, with his gentle way, has truly enriched our community. :-))
——

Madhu hat uns von Anfang an sehr beeindruckt. ein sehr achtsamer, liebevoller und hoch intelligenter Mensch mit einem großen Erfahrungsschatz sei es medizinisch, aber auch als Yogi durch seine verschiedenen Yoga Ausbildungen, gerade dies hat sehr beeindruckt,
„Liebe auf zwei Beinen“ ist das treffendste Feedback aus der Bewohner Runde.

Exzellent waren seine Kochkünste, sein indisches Essen fand große Begeisterung. Wir wünschen ihm einen friedvollen und erfüllten weiteren Lebensweg, wo er sein Yoga Lehrer & Coach Talent weiter entwickeln kann, er leitete u.a. wunderbar die Morgen Praxis an, liebend gerne darf er wieder zu uns kommen!

Hier noch ein paar Einzelstimmen von unseren Bewohnern:

1. Madhu war ein sehr geerdeter, ruhiger und angenehmer Zeitgenosse. Begnadeter Koch der indischen Küche! Super Yogalehrer und Anleiter. Gerne und immer bereit zu helfen und zu unterstützen wo er kann. Man kann gut mit Ihm in englischer Sprache sprechen und ist eine Freude ihn um sich zu haben.

2. Madhu ist ein sehr zuvorkommender Mensch. Er erledigte die Aufgaben zuverlässig und gewissenhaft. Er fungiert auch gern als Ersatz Yoga Lehrer in unserer Morgenpraxis. Mit seiner indischer Küche machte er uns große Freude. Alles Gute für seinem weiteren Lebensweg.

3. Madhu hat sich in seiner ruhigen und aufmerksamen Art hier sehr schnell integriert. Es hat viel Freude gemacht sich mit ihm zu unterhalten und er hat sich an allem interessiert gezeigt. Er hat viel Humor und wir haben zusammen gelacht. Er ist achtsam und hat mit seiner feinen Art unsere Gemeinschaft bereichert. :-))

I had a pleasant stay with Yelena in such a small village. There was a little store where all the villagers meet and Yelena introduced me to some of her friends. I used to sit with them and pass time even though language was a barrier. LOL.
I enjoyed cooking at her fully equipped kitchen. Once I invited her friend over for lunch when she was gone… read more

Madhu stayed with me for just under a week but in that short time did a wonderful job raking cut grass in my orchard, and dog and house sitting while I went away for a couple of days.
I also thoroughly enjoyed his Indian cooking and stories of his travels.

Was a good experience hosting Madhu.
Gentle , kind, good listener, well mannered and friendly.
Despite not having previus eperience cutting grass and trimming a long hazelnut fence he did a good job.

Michele is very kind and helpful. As long as I stayed with him, he daily suggested different options for me to do as a visitor in town.
