    Nov 26 2025

    With screens and social platforms everywhere, there's always room to choose presence over noise and keep your voice at the center.

    With wisdom shaped by his years as a monk and global teacher, Dr. Ishan exposes how our phones, once simple tools, now quietly guide our thoughts, emotions, and attention, and why reclaiming that control matters more than ever. He draws from ancient scripture to warn what happens when our 'servant' becomes our 'master,' revealing how technology can quietly shape our identity and self-worth.

    Through grounded practices like mindfulness and meditation, Dr. Ishan reminds us that real happiness comes from tuning into ourselves, not chasing validation online.

    If you're ready to quiet the noise and reconnect with what truly matters, tune in to this episode of Don't Let the Algorithm Steal Your Voice.

    Dr. Ishan Shivanand is a globally renowned mental health expert, Vedic scholar, and founder of Yoga of Immortals (YOI), a science-backed meditation system rooted in 21 generations of yogic lineage. He has spent over two decades mastering India's ancient integrative healing sciences, transforming them into accessible, non-invasive mental health tools for modern life.
