Big Shakti was established in 2004 by Jayne Stevenson and Dr. Swami Shankardev Saraswati.
Big Shakti offers expert resources and products, meditations and courses, to help you achieve optimal physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
Our products are derived from the yoga tantra tradition and western depth psychological systems, such as that developed by Carl Jung.
We are committed to supporting you at every level – whether you’re just beginning on your meditation journey, or you’re an experienced meditator, yoga teacher or health professional.
Shakti means creative power. It is your inner power, your life force, glow, feeling of wellbeing and your verve for life.
The more Shakti you have, the better you feel. For example, you have the power to think clearly, to digest, to move and create a better, more fulfilling life.
We design our meditations and courses to support you in increasing your physical, mental, and spiritual health in order to ease pain and suffering of every kind—physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual.
We have been blessed to study with outstanding teachers and masters who gave us access to authentic, life-changing knowledge and wisdom. We have spent our lives translating this knowledge into meaningful forms that you can use to improve your health and enhance your life.

Psychotherapy teaches strategies and provides tools to deal with stress and unhealthy patterns of thought, emotion and behaviour. Psychotherapy supports us managing parts of us that are underdeveloped, underregulated and underintegrated. It promotes self-awareness, heart-connected relationships, and the development of a healthy body and mind.
My absolute trust in Big Shakti’s team derives from all the benefits I’ve enjoyed since I started practicing their beautiful methods. What I like most is that they provide knowledge and experience in a structured way, with care, love, and, yes, empathy. It is like having a trusted friend that helps you when needed.
I have never been disappointed with your products. You are thoughtful, very, very kind and extremely knowledgeable. I refer clients (patients), family and friends to Big Shakti all the time. Thank you for your amazing and very needed work.
As a Yoga devotee for 35 years I am convinced, more than ever, that embodying Big Shakti’s Teachings is one of the most essential and far reaching processes a Yogi can embark upon. I am determined to continue the practices in the long-term. I remain in your debt for this doorway into deeper, profound levels of Self.
The classes provided a unique, deep dive into esoteric Eastern and Western philosophies with accompanying practices for self-actualization.
The structured teaching on the workings of the mind gave me the tools to move beyond my personal limitations.
Highly recommended.
It’s an absolute pleasure to learn from experts who know their subject deeply and profoundly.
Even after studying yoga and meditation for over two decades, there is still so much more to discover with Big Shakti.
Very grateful for the teaching.
Excellent study to help build one’s yogic spiritual practices.
These classes are a great opportunity for both beginners and advanced students to really understand and experience the value of yoga-tantra and deepen meditation and ritual experience. They provide great inspiration for yoga teachers feeling a bit stuck in their creativity and purpose for teaching.
Big Shakti’s teachings communicate and flow with clarity and wisdom, and so often build bridges of insight into my life and inner world. Through the study of their education programs, deeper layers of understanding and joy have come into being in my life. This knowledge helps bring to life and living, the spirit of yoga and tantra.
I believe what you are presenting is a very fascinating science that deserves full attention. I hope your courses are propagated and available to many people from many walks of life, and that they receive the noteworthy response they absolutely deserve!
Big Shakti’s study programs provide a path to enlightenment and a practical yet highly spiritual means of attaining a more aware state wherever you are in your own development. Both Swami Shankardev and Jayne support your growth and learning in a safe, loving environment where questions are seen as part of the learning. The structure of the theory has given me the basis on which to build. It has helped me to understand so much about my life and the lives of those around me. I feel supported and held.
Dr. Swami Shankardev is both a dynamic Yogi and a brilliant intellectual who embodies a mix of health practitioner and psychotherapist, as well as a sense of humor, which is common only to stand-up artists and team coaches all blended into one; quite an authentic and modern Yogi indeed.
He gave a meticulous, yet informal speech and conveyed a unique sense of what the Yogic lifestyle is really all about with so much energy, enthusiasm, impeccable serenity, and laser-like attention. He dared people to give meditation a chance, at least a try! That was long ago and I have since practiced many of Big Shakti’s meditations and believe they are the most authentic meditations available today and are perfect for aspiring yoga practitioners.
