CURRENT MISSION

Go with the flow, learn as I grow

ABOUT ME

Hi/Namaste/Hola/Peace! My name's Chetna, pronounced exactly how it's spelled and in Sanskrit, means "awareness." I relish the idea that when my aunt gave me my name, she knew I'd be a self-actualized nomad for knowledge. Either way, I try to live up to it all day errr day !

PHILOSOPHY

“The path spirals upward.” Siddhartha

We’re all somehow evolving toward betterment, we just may be at diverse levels of awareness. I try to practice hugging it out with conviction, remaining present to the moment at hand, exercising compassionate with myself and others, catching my ego when it gets swollen, and making art to process this human experience.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Just one?! Got lost on Table Mountain in Cape Town with my inter-generational family. Painted a mural with a friend in Pijao, Colombia. Went from owning and cultivating a home in the burbs of Westminster, Colorado to being a wander living temporarily in a tiny house in a Berkeley, California.
