In our modern world, reconnecting with your true nature has become essential for inner balance and emotional well-being. Research shows that people who nurture their spiritual nature report greater life satisfaction, resilience, and peace of mind (Koenig, 2012). Yet, some spiritual seekers struggle to stay connected to their spiritual essence amid the pace of daily life.
My new course, How to Connect to Your True Nature, offers a clear, structured path to help you find your true nature and sustain that connection. It blends modern psychology with timeless spiritual insight, providing practices for spiritual growth, emotionally healthy spirituality and deeper alignment with your higher self.

Understanding Your True Nature
Your true nature—sometimes called your divine spark, essential nature, or higher consciousness—is the unchanging awareness behind your thoughts, emotions, and roles. It’s your divine nature, the source of your vitality and peace. Neuroscience confirms that practices which connect you to this inner being can reshape the brain and reduce stress (Tang et al., 2015).
This connection isn’t something to build from scratch—it already exists within you. The work lies in removing the layers of conditioning and reactivity that obscure it. Once you remember your spiritual essence, you begin to experience the calm clarity of your true self, even amidst life’s uncertainty.
The Nondual Understanding of True Nature
In the teachings of Advaita Vedanta and nonduality, your true nature is not something to attain—it’s what you already are before thought and identity. The purpose of spiritual practice is to recognize this reality directly.
My course integrates this wisdom with modern psychology, helping you embody your spiritual essence while living fully in the world.
How to Connect to Your Higher Self
The course How to Connect to Your True Nature distills my fifteen years of spiritual teaching and dedicated spiritual practice into five core areas that help you access your higher self and live from your divine nature every day:
Psychological Foundations for Spiritual Access – Research demonstrates that certain psychological capacities serve as prerequisites for sustained spiritual development (Pargament, 2007). This module addresses the mental and emotional frameworks necessary to access and recognize your true nature, including self-awareness, emotional regulation, and the capacity to observe mental content without identification.
Meditation Practices for Higher Consciousness – Meditation represents one of the most thoroughly researched spiritual practices, with studies consistently demonstrating its effectiveness for enhancing self-awareness, reducing stress, and facilitating access to deeper states of consciousness (Goyal et al., 2014). This section details specific meditation approaches designed to cultivate awareness of your higher self and strengthen your capacity to rest in your spiritual essence.
Yoga Mudras for Spiritual Connection – Mudras, or sacred hand gestures used in yoga and meditation traditions, influence energy flow and consciousness states. This module teaches specific mudras that facilitate connection to your inner being and support sustained awareness of your true self.
Self-Inquiry Practices – Self-inquiry, a powerful method from nonduality and advaita vedanta, for investigating the nature of consciousness and identity, helps practitioners distinguish between temporary mental content and the unchanging awareness that witnesses all experience. This practice directly supports your ability to find your true nature beneath layers of conditioned identity.
Healing and Integration Work – Unresolved psychological wounds and trauma can create obstacles to spiritual development by generating unconscious patterns that pull attention away from your essential nature (van der Kolk, 2014). This section addresses different types of healing work from the field of energy medicine and traditional therapies. Healing work forms an integral component of any spiritual journey and how it supports sustained connection to your divine spark.
Each lesson is designed to help you integrate spiritual beliefs with psychological health so your connection becomes stable, embodied, and life-enhancing.
The Power of Living from Your True Nature
I cannot overstate the power and resourcefulness you access by remaining centred and based in the source within. The benefits of connecting and staying connected to this inner wellspring extend far beyond isolated spiritual experiences, rippling outward to touch every facet of your embodied existence—your relationships, work, creativity, health, and overall life satisfaction.
When you live connected to your true self, you access a reservoir of wisdom, creativity, and peace that sustains you through all of life’s challenges. Research in contemplative science shows that such practices increase emotional regulation, cognitive flexibility, and relationship satisfaction (Davidson & Schuyler, 2015).
Individuals who successfully integrate their spiritual beliefs with psychological health—achieving what I call emotionally healthy spirituality—demonstrate significantly lower levels of anxiety and depression, along with enhanced capacity for meaning-making and purpose (Rosmarin et al., 2011). Your true nature serves as an inexhaustible source of wisdom, creativity, and peace, accessible regardless of circumstances when you've developed the practices to maintain that connection.
