Meet Niraj Naik
Niraj Naik, an accomplished author and the founder of SOMA Breath, a leading school of breathwork and holistic wellness, has been transforming lives worldwide. As a sought-after expert, he trains individuals to become "transformational artists" capable of delivering exceptional wellness experiences that captivate their clients while addressing the underlying causes of their problems.
What sets Niraj apart is his unique approach to integrating music technology into well-being practices like meditation. Niraj’s proprietary music technology turns wellbeing practices like meditation from a ‘I have to’ to a ‘I want to’ practice. With his innovative techniques, he has successfully inspired countless individuals to embrace meditation as a practice they genuinely desire.
...Niraj's journey into music began in 1999 when he ran his own drum and bass rave, attracting over 2,000 attendees each month for a remarkable three-year period. However, after experiencing burnout from the hedonistic lifestyle associated with being a club promoter, Niraj fell into a different path.
After 7 years of working as a community pharmacist, he experienced major disillusionment and burn-out. Suffering from an autoimmune disease, where he was housebound for a year, he received a major breakthrough when he discovered the power of ancient breathwork techniques and ancient bio-hacking secrets from traditional yoga. After curing himself from this ‘incurable’ illness within a few months, he set out on a mission to bring these powerful methods to the mainstream. He combined his passion for music and science to create evidence backed techniques that are transforming the world of holistic health.
In 2015 Niraj made internet history by creating the world's most viral infographic ‘What happens to your body after 1hr of drinking a can of coke’ on his website TheRenegadePharmacist.com. This propelled him to health influencer status with this blog as his platform for promoting his proprietary music technology and ancient/modern bio-hacking secrets.
Niraj also became a pioneer of the "Breath raves" movement, where he seamlessly combined his proprietary breathwork techniques with his own music productions. Starting off on the island of Koh Phangan, these unique events, aimed at giving people a more healthy way to have fun, and now hosted at prestigious club venues on the iconic island of Ibiza where he resides, offered attendees an opportunity to achieve an exhilarating high through their own breath. Niraj's breath raves quickly gained popularity, establishing him as a prominent figure in the ecstatic dance community.
Today, Niraj travels the globe alongside his music partner, Orlando Sax, creating unforgettable breathwork and dance experiences at renowned wellness events and festivals. Their performances consistently receive rave reviews, leaving participants deeply moved and transformed by the power of music and breathwork.
Beyond his exceptional live performances, Niraj has also made a significant impact on the well-being industry. He co-created the Mind Spa concept, leveraging his musical expertise to enhance the rituals at Rituals, one of Europe's largest well-being brands. Additionally, Niraj's reputation as an esteemed artist has led to collaborations with iconic producers such as Satori and the legendary Wim Hof. He produced the captivating soundtrack for Wim Hof's app and courses, further solidifying his presence in the realm of holistic wellness.
As if his accomplishments weren't already impressive enough, Niraj is set to release several highly anticipated tracks on premier music labels such as Mo Black, Ulu, and Selador. These forthcoming releases are eagerly awaited by fans and enthusiasts alike, eager to experience the musical mastery that Niraj consistently delivers.
Niraj’s clients include medical professionals, doctors, ceos, celebrities, sportstars, royalty, and even the special forces and green berets.
In summary, Niraj Naik's journey from club promoter to pharmacist to holistic wellness pioneer has been nothing short of extraordinary. With his innovative approach to breathwork and music, he has revolutionized the way people perceive and engage in practices like meditation. Through his live performances, collaborations, and upcoming releases, Niraj continues to inspire and empower individuals around the world to embrace holistic well-being and unlock their true potential.
