Join the January Cohort

Why Living AWAKE?

Most of us know what we should do to feel better — slow down, breathe, meditate, move our bodies, connect with others — but we’re overwhelmed, stressed out, or disconnected, so change feels impossible.

You Don’t Need More Willpower. You Need Nervous-System Support, Community, and Daily Practices That Actually Stick.

Living AWAKE is an invitation to experience just that.  

Through live weekly teachings, embodiment work, Ayurveda, nervous-system education, and safe community, you’ll shift from anxious to present, open the doors to self-compassion show up truly alive in your life.

Living AWAKE is a 3-month container designed to help you finally break cycles and move from stuck to free.

This isn’t self-improvement.
It’s coming home to yourself.

  • You’re stuck in patterns that don’t reflect the life you want
  • You long for deeper presence, meaning, and connection
  • You’re tired of going it alone and want a supportive community
  • You’ve tried meditation or healthy habits before… but nothing stuck

Living AWAKE meets you exactly where you are — then walks with you toward a life that feels rooted, intentional, and awake.

What You’ll Walk Away With

By the End of These 3 Months, You Will…

  • Feel more grounded, calm, centered and at-ease, even when life gets messy
  • Develop an understanding of your nervous system and explore tools to move from a disregulated state to a regulated state of being, in real time
  • Identify the internal feedback loops we create that keep us from moving out of stuck and into free
  • Gently build a daily meditation + embodiment practice that actually sticks
  • Discovet the support that comes from seasonal living according to Ayurveda, and how to integrate its practices and principles into daily life
  • Experience meaningful connection with like-hearted people on the same path
  • Move through your days with more ease, purpose, and authenticity
  • And most importantly: BE more present, alive, and AWAKE

Meet Your Guide: Laura Doss RYT500

Laura has been a committed practitioner of Yoga for over 25 years. Classically trained in the Sivananda lineage in 2005, she has since collected thousands more hours of training and teaching experience in ashrams, studios and schools around the world. The demands of early motherhood invited her to deepen into Kundalini Yoga (the “householder’s Yoga”) and she later advanced her studies in Ayurveda to become an Ayurvedic Health Coach. Her combined experience has led her to what she currently believes is her highest service, which is to maintain a healthy dialogue and relationship with her nervous system, and guide others to the same through Yoga, pranayama, meditation, mindfulness and the wise, life-giving tools of Ayurveda.
