(Instagram/ /sarahmsham)Sarah Sham, the principal designer who founded the Mumbai-based interior design firm Essajees Atelier in 2014, took to Instagram on June 21 to showcase a 'hidden' sanctuary that offers a drastic contrast to the city's notorious traffic and noise.A 'best-kept secret' on the oceanIn a video titled ‘A sound healing and meditation spot literally sitting on the ocean’, Sarah detailed her personal quest to find tranquillity after a period of intense travel. "Came back from travel with my mind completely overcrowded — too much noise, too little stillness. Needed a hard reset, not another to-do list," she wrote in her caption."A friend pointed me to this sound healing session on the water, in the heart of south Mumbai, and it was exactly the slice of peace I didn’t know I was missing. The kind of quiet that actually rewires something. If your mind feels as loud as mine did, reach out to @shaktisouls_ and book yourself a session. Hidden gem, fully worth the find," Sarah added.In the video clip, Sarah did not hold back her enthusiasm for the unique location: "This is the most insane hidden gem in South Bombay, and very few people know it exists," She added, “A sound healing and meditation spot literally sitting on the ocean, no traffic, no noise, just waves and silence.” Also read | Shararat reunion centred on magic of stillness: Inside yoga and meditation journey of actors Shruti Seth, Aditi MalikkInside the sanctuary: waves, silence, Mumbai skylineThe video provided a vivid tour of the therapeutic space and its sweeping surroundings. Sarah began by filming herself inside a spacious, beautifully curated studio before panning the camera to show what makes the location truly breathtaking. The room featured sleek chevron-patterned flooring, indoor plants, and large glass windows. Arranged in a wide circle on the floor were individual meditation mats and plush pillows, all centred around a collection of brass singing bowls, gongs, and other sound-healing instruments.Through the massive glass windows was an expansive, unobstructed view of the Arabian Sea. In the distance, the iconic Mumbai skyline stood tall against a bright blue sky dotted with soft clouds. The video also captured an adjacent outdoor area with a manicured green lawn, framed by an ornate black-iron fence. Weathered, vintage-style green metal benches and tables were positioned along the water’s edge, offering an ideal spot to sit and look out across the bay toward the city.As the camera panned across the peaceful water, capturing a lone orange boat lazily floating in the distance, Sarah highlighted the environment's transformative quality. "You sit down, the city disappears, and this view, this is what you're meditating in front of," she said. "This, I promise you, is one of South Bombay's best-kept secrets. Share this with someone who really needs this kind of a reset and look in the caption for all of the details," she added.For residents accustomed to constant movement, the concept of a space where 'the city disappears' is a rare luxury. By sharing this hidden enclave, Sarah highlighted a growing shift among urban professionals seeking mindfulness and mental resets within the very city boundaries that usually demand their non-stop energy.Note to readers: This report is based on user-generated content from social media.
