Dr Sukhtej Sahni is a practicing psychiatrist, based in Mohali, Punjab. He did his post-graduation in psychiatry after his MBBS from Government Medical College, Chandigarh. He has been practicing psychiatry for about five years now and with training period included, he has eight years of experience in this field. Throughout this journey he has seen and encountered endless emotional and physical suffering, and more importantly the realisation that churned him is that suffering isn't limited to just mentally-ill rather the whole society is suffering one way or the other. So, the journey started from the wish to curtail down the stigma associated with mental illness and suffering. This carried forward into looking at solutions to help with this suffering. He realised that nothing sufficiently has been done for the day-to-day emotional problems associated with life. Then his focus turned towards yoga, followed by its philosophy, Upanishads and Advaita. Routine practice and insights into philosophy and Advaita made him acknowledge the fact that the answer for all of our emotional and physical suffering is within this sacred system of knowledge and practice. This stimulated the growth and development of Yogapsychopeutics and hence this book resulted as an offshoot of this thinking process.
