A nervous-system-led pathway from coping to embodied calm

This is not another course to complete.
It is not more information to hold in your head.

Rooted to Radiant is a supported, intelligent container for people who already know yoga or meditation helps but haven’t yet made it land consistently in their nervous system, body and daily life.

It is for those ready to move from trying to stay calm
to becoming someone who is calm.

The problem this programme is designed to solve

Most stressed high-functioning people don’t struggle because they lack discipline or insight.

They struggle because:

• Their nervous system is still running old stress patterns

• Their practices are sporadic, mismatched or purely cognitive

• Calm happens occasionally but doesn’t last

• They self-regulate alone, without skilled reflection or feedback

So the system never fully rewires.

Rooted to Radiant exists to change that.

The Three Shifts That Create Lasting Change

(State · Story · Strategy) Rooted to Radiant builds directly on the work introduced in Chaos to Calm.

Where Chaos to Calm reveals why calm hasn’t yet stuck, Rooted to Radiant is where the system is rewired and lived.

The programme works because it addresses three interdependent shifts in the correct order.

Shift One: State

Regulating the nervous system

Nothing changes sustainably until the body feels safe enough to change.

This programme begins with state — the physiological reality of the nervous system.

Through carefully sequenced yoga, breath, rest and meditation practices, participants learn to:

• Settle chronic stress activation

• Recognise when the system is over- or under-stimulated

• Access calm without force or suppression

• Build regulation as a repeatable skill

This is not about relaxation as an idea. It is about changing the baseline state of the body.

Shift Two: Story

Updating the internal narrative

Once the nervous system is no longer braced, the inner story becomes audible.

Stress is often sustained not just by what happens but by:

• Unquestioned self-expectations

• Old coping identities (“I just push through”)

• Internal pressure disguised as discipline

Through guided journaling, inquiry and reflective dialogue, participants begin to:

• Notice the stories driving stress responses

• Soften self-judgement and internal urgency

• Develop a more accurate, compassionate inner voice

• Align choices with what genuinely supports wellbeing

The story shifts because the state has shifted — not the other way round.

Shift Three: Strategy

Living differently, consistently

Only now does strategy matter.

Strategy here does not mean optimisation, productivity hacks, or rigid routines.

It means:

• Choosing practices that match this nervous system

• Creating rhythms that work in real life

• Knowing what to do when stress resurfaces

• Applying calm in relationships, work, sleep, and decision-making

• Seeing our struggle through a new lens

This is where insight becomes integration.

Rooted to Radiant provides structure, accountability, and professional guidance so change is not about willpower.

How the Three Shifts Map to Root · Rest · Rise · Radiate

The three shifts are not abstract concepts — they are embodied through the four phases of the programme.

• Root → stabilising state

• Rest → repairing state and softening story

• Rise → expanding capacity with a new story

• Radiate → applying strategy in daily life

Each layer builds on the last. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is forced.

Why This Approach Works (when others don’t)

Most programmes start with strategy:

“Do this practice. Follow this routine. Be more consistent.”

Rooted to Radiant starts where change actually happens:

• In the nervous system

• In the internal relationship

• In lived patterns, not ideals

This is why calm becomes reliable, not conditional.

The Rooted to Radiant Pathway

Root · Rest · Rise · Radiate

The programme unfolds through four interlinked phases.
Each layer builds on the one before it.

ROOT — Safety, stability, self-trust

This is where regulation begins.

• Grounding the nervous system

• Clarifying personal stress patterns

• Establishing a rhythm of practice that feels doable

• Rebuilding trust in the body’s signals

Nothing grows without roots.

REST — Deep recovery and nervous system repair

Here the system learns it no longer has to stay alert.

• Rest as a biological skill, not a luxury

• Down-regulating chronic stress responses

• Improving sleep quality and emotional recovery

• Letting the body experience enough safety to soften

This is where exhaustion stops being the baseline.

RISE — Energy, clarity, capacity

From rest, energy returns — without adrenaline.

• Gentle mobilisation of vitality

• Clearer thinking, steadier focus

• More choice in emotional responses

• Practices that support motivation without burnout

This is not pushing.
It is energy with stability.

RADIATE — Integration into real life

This phase is about carry-over.

• Calm that persists beyond the mat

• A practice that adapts to real schedules

• Emotional resilience in relationships and work

• Confidence in self-regulation without over-reliance

This is where practice becomes who you are, not something you do.

What’s Included

This is a high-touch, professionally guided container not a self-study bundle.

Weekly Live Group Practice

• 60-minute live yoga class every Saturday morning (replays available)

• Nervous-system-led, trauma-aware, intelligently sequenced

• Designed to support regulation, strength, mobility and rest

Weekly Live Meditation & Journaling

• 30-minute live online session each week

• Guided meditation followed by structured reflection

• Designed to integrate insight into behaviour and choice

Personalised 1:1 Support

• 90-minute 1:1 Yoga Therapy intake session
  To map stress patterns, nervous system tendencies, lifestyle factors and intentions AND to co-create your personal practice!

• Monthly 1:1 follow-up sessions
  To refine practice, troubleshoot blocks, and ensure integration stays on track

This is where the programme becomes yours.

On-Demand Foundations

• Access to the Beginners Meditation for Mental Health course: Inner Peace

• Access to a dedicated sleep & nervous system recovery course: Deep Rest & Sleep Repair
  These provide structure, education and reinforcement without overload.

Practice Library

• A growing library of recorded practices:

  • Yoga

  • Meditation

  • Breathwork

  • Nervous system regulation tools

Explore what you need, when you need it.

Accountability, Support & Expertise

• A consistent rhythm of contact

• Skilled guidance rather than generic advice

• A container that holds you steady while your system changes

You are not expected to do this alone.

Who This Is For

Rooted to Radiant is for people who:

• Are intelligent, reflective and self-aware

• Have tried yoga or meditation before

• Want consistency, not quick fixes

• Value professional guidance and relational depth

• Are ready to invest in lasting change

It is not for people looking for hacks, extremes or constant stimulation.

The Outcome

By the end of Rooted to Radiant, participants don’t just feel better.

They:

• Understand their nervous system

• Know which practices genuinely support them

• Experience calmer baseline states

• Recover faster from stress

• Trust their body again

Calm becomes reliable.
Energy becomes stable.
Practice becomes integrated.

What Student's Say about this class...

"I’ve practiced yoga for over 30 years but had drifted away partly because of issues with joint pain. I am really grateful to Emily for bringing me back to yoga and its great benefits, which were evident within a few weeks of feeling stronger and more flexible. I began shortly after a knee arthroscopy and Emily was very considerate with protection for my knee and alternative postures. The benefits to work life balance have also been appreciated - simply being able to let go, breath and relax in meditations led by Emily."

-Julia - Yoga Student

"Emily teaches through movement and mindfulness an awareness of body and being within the world.

The asanas encourage both physical and mental strength and flexibility and Emily’s clear instruction makes following the poses easy.

I feel rejuvenated after a yoga session with Emily, at peace with myself, and week by week my body is being gently coaxed into optimal strength and wellness."

- Rachel - Yoga Student

"Emily is an amazing yoga instructor. Each class is the perfect balance of challenge and chill, and you finish feeling energised and calm, like you've worked out and then gone to the spa. Her love of yoga is infectious and she manages to bring everyone together and take us on a journey. Highly recommend!"

- Stephanie - Yoga Student
