Ramaa’s Journey

Ramaa Krishnan is a dedicated advocate for conscious living, guiding others on a journey toward a more mindful, intentional, and fulfilling life. Born and raised in India, Ramaa was introduced to traditional spiritual practices early on, which ignited her passion for self-exploration. Initially trained as a CPA, she gradually transitioned from her accounting career to fully immerse herself in the study of mind training and spiritual growth. After moving to the United States in 1998, Ramaa made it her mission to blend the intellectual rigor of the West with the intuitive wisdom of the East, leading to the founding of the Full Bloomed Lotus Center for Self-Awareness in 2007.

Ramaa completed a two-year certification in Analytical Psychotherapy from the Carl Jung Institute in 2012, integrating these perspectives into what she offers. In 2018, she founded Grow Through Mindfulness, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to cultivating qualities like empathy, compassion, and resilience in children. Although the initiative is now under a new name and leadership, its mission to help students with emotional self-regulation continues.

​Ramaa encountered a challenging chapter in her personal life that led to questioning her beliefs and to digging deeper to understand what it truly means to live a life of faith beyond traditional practices. She now shares these profound insights through her classes, book discussions, and private counsel, both in-person and online.

Her ongoing classes, which include teachings and "homework," are designed to bring awareness to habitual ego-driven reactions and inspire choices that align with one's true intentions. She helps individuals connect with their innate strengths while illuminating their fears, offering wisdom and techniques to transform these into opportunities for growth and success. Through weekly classes and annual retreats, Ramaa provides a training ground for shifting from a fixed to a growth mindset.

Ramaa resides in Wilmette, Illinois, with her loving husband and two adult children, and invites you to join her in awakening your spirit and living with purpose.
