You are the shift

Life usually gives us a nudge when we are in need of a change. Sometimes it is a quiet whisper and other times it is a loud alarm. If you find yourself feeling frustrated, unfulfilled or depressed, you can trust this as a sign that you are looking for change, even if you are not ready for it. Your intention, desire and determination are more important than feeling ready or not. Our process meets people where they are and at different levels of capacity for change. You get to choose how much and how quickly you want to shift.

The Paradigm Shift can be an intense transformational process and requires a high level of commitment in terms of time, energy, financial investment and focus. Your results will be reflective of how much you give to the process and to yourself. For this process to be successful, it will require making daily changes, engaging in deep self-care, developing compassion and ultimately being devoted to yourself.

Fear is completely normal and to be expected when making a decision to change your life in a meaningful way. The most important skill that you can develop to work through this fear is safety. Practices such as breathwork and somatic releasing are a great foundation to build before engaging in any inner work or making any deeper changes to your life. Small, subtle shifts are possible that can build safety, trust and courage to make the bigger shifts. Be honest with where are you are, what skills and support you need to create safety and we can work through those fears together.

The Paradigm Shift centers your inner experience as the source of knowledge, The transformation occurs through the emergence of a natural process through our work together. The teacher, therapist, coach, guru is not in charge of your process. I provide guidance and support for the process that you are creating. You are forging a path unique to you that will continue to guide after our work is complete. The practices I teach are rooted in direct realization and embodiment -- spirituality is something you live. We challenge the industry norms of performative spirituality and embody realness. We don’t judge or conform to an image of what spirituality should be. All expressions are welcome.

My lived experience through intense trauma, pain and suffering is the ultimate training for this work. I continue to transform my suffering everyday through The Paradigm Shift. Most formal and structured trainings in this field are Indigenous practices that have been colonized and stripped of their essence or Western psychology that has a limited framework and pathologizes pain within the system of capitalism. While I have completed trainings, certifications and spent countless hours spent in self-study; being qualified to guide others requires you to digest and embody the knowledge. The source of Tantric wisdom has been energetic, through my ancestors, Shakti pilgrimage in India and the unseen realm which extends into elements of nature. For me, there is no separation from sadhana and life. Everything is integrated and this is the sign of a true mystic. You don’t do tantra or study it, you become it.

I spent many years trying to heal things separately: seeing a functional medicine doctor for my chronic physical symptoms, a therapist for my mental health, an acupuncturist for my stress and the list goes on. I realized that treating myself as separate parts and pieces was actually keeping me stuck in disease. It was only when i realized all of my imbalances, symptoms and pains were connected that I started to experience real change.

Mulitidimensional medicine addresses everything in your life: your relationship to your body, your emotions, your thoughts, your unconscious reactions and habits, your relationship dynamics, all of it has to be changed for a new way of life to emerge.
