My Approach, Journey and Influences

My Journey: By the age of twenty-seven, I was suffering from chronic insomnia.  On the surface, I appeared successful, running AHFrancis Ltd, a beauty and training company but I was exhausted and searching for deeper answers.

That search led me to yoga and Ayurveda, where I discovered that healing doesn’t come from external fixes but from understanding and addressing the causes of imbalance.

This realisation became the foundation of Sleepology by Anandi®, a method designed to help others heal from the root, restoring balance, calm, and vitality naturally.

My Approach: My work is rooted in Ayurveda, which recognises that each person has a unique constitution. When we understand our nature and how life’s demands have disturbed it, we can restore balance and rest.

Western approaches tend to manage symptoms; Ayurveda looks for causes. I guide my clients through an individualised process using Ayurvedic principles, breathwork, and mindful routines to help the body and mind return to harmony.

Influences: My teacher Dr. Yogrishi Vishvketu gave me the name Anandi, meaning “in bliss.” His guidance, along with teachings from Dr. David Frawley, Georg Feuerstein and Dr. Deepak Chopra, shaped my philosophy that rest is medicine.

I also serve as President of Helping Hands for India, a charity that provides education for children in rural India, an expression of my belief in service and compassion as part of true wellbeing.

The Work Today: I teach internationally, lead retreats, and speak about how being rested transforms every aspect of life.

At my retreat centre in Italy, I’m creating a sanctuary where people can restore their life force through Ayurveda, yoga, and breath.

To be rested is to be fully alive — and that’s the essence of my work.
