Embodied Self Method

A trauma-sensitive, spiritually grounded path of returning to the Self that is already whole.

All this, whatever moves in this moving world, is enveloped by the Divine/Self. Live in that awareness, and rejoice .

Crave nothing, for all belongs to the Self.

~ Isha Upanishad

I see you...

  • Overwhelemd

  • Disconnected

  • Stuck

  • Coping via perfectionism

  • Exhausted mentally and physically

Let's acknowledge and normalize the struggle.

What you’re feeling isn’t a personal failure — it’s a natural survival response.

The nervous system is built to protect you.


So feeling overwhelmed, wanting to shut down or escape, struggling to rest, or slipping into perfectionism… these reactions make perfect sense in the context of trauma and in the world we’re living in right now.

We’re all swimming (or drowning) in a nonstop stream of information, bad news, and social pressure.

The pace is unnatural, and the expectations are inhuman. The culture we live in glorifies overwork and treats real rest as a luxury rather than a biological need.

So, of course, your body and mind are doing whatever they can to keep you afloat.

None of this is your fault.

The good news is, you can take your power back.

That’s the heart of this framework: not “fixing” you, but helping you return to the wholeness that’s already in you, underneath the noise.

Rooted in the ancient wisdom of yoga therapy and Indian philosophy, The Embodied Self Method draws on teachings that have guided people toward steadiness and inner freedom for thousands of years. The teachings speak to the human experience itself.

What exacly is the framework?

The Embodied Self Method is a personalized path, grounded in yoga, philosophy, and spiritual inquiry, that guides you from survival into presence—from the perception of fragmentation to the wholeness that is.

 

Using practices ranging from simple yoga asana to deeper spiritual text study, you will be guided from living in survival mode to living from your deeper Self — the part of you that is already aware, steady, connected, and whole.

Phase 1: “Steady Body” — This phase reestablishes your relationship with your physical body — not as something to push, fix, or control, but as something to honor.  We use trauma-sensitive movement, interoception, grounding, and breath as devotional practices — not performance. 

Phase 2: “Clear Mind” — Here we begin to gently observe the patterns of mind — not to judge or fix them, but to understand them through self-inquiry, breath awareness, mantra, meditation, and reflective study.


Phase 3: “Peaceful Spirit” — reconnect with awareness, your essential Self, and integrate that living presence into daily life.

If you’re done with “just coping,” done feeling like rest is guilt or weakness, and ready for a practice that helps you access what’s already whole inside you — this path is for you.

 

We will work at a pace that honours your nervous system, your story, and your sovereignty.

If you’re done with “just coping,” done feeling like rest is guilt or weakness, and ready for a practice that helps you access what’s already whole inside you — this path is for you.

The Three Phases in Detail

This program integrates the therapeutic practices of yoga, the wisdom of the ancient teachings, and modern insight into the nervous system and trauma recovery—so healing is both embodied and spiritually meaningful.

Phase 1: Sthira Śarīra — Steady Body

 

Rebuild safety, trust, and grounded presence. When life has been overwhelming, the body can stop feeling safe.

This phase helps you rebuild a safe, steady connection with physical sensation — without forcing, pushing, or bypassing pain.

 

You’ll explore:

  • Exploring choice-based and empowering asana (postures)

  • Grounding + orienting practices

  • Learning the body’s signals with clarity

  • Breathing optimally

  • Practicing simple pranayama (energetic practice using the breath) for calming or balancing

  • Discovering steadiness as devotion to yourself

The shift: Your body becomes a place you can settle into instead of brace against.

 

Phase 2: Prasanna Manaḥ — Clear Mind

Breathe well. Regulate well. See clearly.

Once the body steadies, the mind becomes more spacious. This phase builds emotional regulation and mental clarity through functional breathing and accessible meditation.

 

You’ll explore:

  • Self-inquiry 

  • The study of spiritual texts - yogic, and Indian, or the tradition of your choice

  • Clarifying meditations + sound practices

 

The shift: Your mind softens. You access more ease, more clarity, and more choice.

 

Phase 3: Śānta Ātmā — Peaceful Self

 

A safe way to access an embodied path to spiritual connection.

Here, yoga therapy meets a trauma-sensitive approach to spirituality.
This is where you reconnect with awareness as your deeper Self — gently, safely, and without bypassing your lived experience.

You’ll explore:

  • Recognizing awareness as your inner anchor

  • Resting in the part of you that is steady, constant, unchanging

  • Chanting mantras, creating ritual, and meaning-making

  • Integrating your spiritual understanding into everyday life

 

The shift: A quiet sense of inner peace becomes accessible regardless of external.

Who This Is For

 

The Embodied Self Method is for people who:

feel overwhelmed, anxious, or constantly “on alert”

feel disconnected from their body, intuition, or spiritual life

are tired of all-or-nothing thinking and want steadier inner ground

want a spiritual path that feels safe and embodied — not bypassing

crave meaning, connection, and a felt sense of inner peace

 

If you want to reconnect with the truest part of yourself — gently, sustainably, and on your own terms — this path is for you.
