Wendy Matthews Founder My Spiritual India Tours

“I didn’t come to India to start a business. I came because my life had fallen apart.”

Twelve years ago, I was standing at a crossroads—disoriented, heartbroken, and asking the big questions: What now? Who am I? What began as a trip to India to escape the noise of my life… turned into the deepest inner pilgrimage I could never have planned.

I wasn’t looking for a tour. I was looking for something real—something to hold on to when everything else was slipping away.

And India gave it to me. Not all at once, not without discomfort. But slowly, over chai with strangers, in the chaos of rickshaw rides, in the silence of sunrise temple ceremonies… something shifted.

Presence.
Stillness.
Spiritual depth I’d never encountered before.

Since that first trip, I’ve spent nearly half of every year living, learning, and practicing in India—immersed in the places and people who continue to shape me.

Why I Created These Tours

After seven years of quietly walking this path, I realised something:
Others were searching, too.
Not for a luxury getaway. Not for a checklist of temples.
But for a felt experience—a meaningful encounter with India’s sacred, messy, beautiful soul.

I created My Spiritual India Tours to offer just that.
These journeys aren’t about photo ops.
They’re about real spiritual connection—offered with reverence, guided by someone who understands both Western minds and Eastern wisdom.

This is for you if…

  • You’re spiritually curious or already on a path—but feeling stuck or dry

  • You crave something authentic, not orchestrated

  • You want to travel to India, but not alone, and not like a tourist

  • You’re open to the unexpected, the mystical, the imperfect

  • You want time and space to reflect, reconnect, and remember who you are

What Makes These Tours Different

🪷 Deeply Personal – You’re not a number on a bus. Group sizes are intimate. The experience is curated, not mass-produced.

🌍 Culturally Fluent – I’ve lived this, and I walk between both worlds. I translate the customs, context, and chaos of India into something meaningful and navigable.

🛕 Spiritually Grounded – We visit sacred sites, sit with local teachers, attend fire pujas, practice yoga and breathwork—and make space for whatever arises in you.

🫱🏽‍🫲🏿 Welcoming to All – Midlife seekers. Solo travelers. Beginner yogis. Worn-out professionals. Seasoned practitioners. The broken-hearted. The hopeful. All are welcome here.

Not Just a Tour. A Turning Point.

If you’re feeling the pull; that whisper of maybe this is what I need—I invite you to trust it.

Every tour I offer is born from love, lived experience, and deep spiritual commitment.
It’s not about selling out every seat. It’s about creating space for something real to happen.

Something transformational.
Something that stays with you long after you return home.
