Oksana Esberard

Oksana is a certified business meditation instructor, mindfulness speaker, and consultant. After 10 years of personal practice and ambition to search deeper, Oksana completed a 4-month meditation and yoga training in the Indian Himalayas. The next two years she spent looking for the scientific evidence and medical explanations for her profound life-changing experience. Accidentally she has found her passion for mental and emotional well-being in the work environment. Utilizing her talent to convert the ancient 5000-year old wisdom into simple modern language, Oksana supports it by science and business practicality.

As a result, Oksana founded her company SattvaMe that works with business leaders, HR professionals, and executives installing mindfulness practices in the workplace for the next level performance, cohesive teams, and cultural alignment.

Born and raised in the Far East of Russia, Oksana became a citizen of the world at the age of 16. She has traveled to 55+ countries, leading mindfulness events and workshops in India, North America, and Russia.
