Meditation Teacher
Amritamurti has been involved in theatre and the musical arts since early childhood, having found in them a delightful and meaningful way to connect with others through creative personal expression.
Her journey on the path of yoga began years later, opening previously unimagined doors of self-awareness, development and creativity, deepening her relationship with art, Self and humanity. She is honored to be able to fuse her great passions for the purpose of bringing greater peace into the world.
Personal excellence through virtual reality relaxation
We acknowledge that Relax VR is located on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Ramaytush Ohlone peoples, who are the original inhabitants of the San Francisco Peninsula.
We recognize that we benefit from living and working on their traditional homeland, and we affirm their sovereign rights as First Peoples.
We recognize that, as the original stewards of this land, the Ramaytush Ohlone maintained harmony with nature for millennia, and we honor the Ramaytush Ohlone peoples for their enduring commitment to Mother Earth.

We give 0.5% of our revenue to help counteract climate change. Apart from helping us reduce our own climate anxiety, this represents part of our commitment to help protect one of our core values - nature.
We shut down our Facebook page in March 2021, and Instagram page in June 2021. We did this upon discovering that the mental health effects of Facebook and Instagram are the very opposite of what we are trying to achieve with Relax VR. We did not want to have a presence on platforms that are detrimental to both our customers' and our own mental health.
