Introducing
The AMBIKA Academy
A six-month immersion in the art & science of self-care
Reclaim your wellbeing with
The AMBIKA Method®
Before I tell you all about this life changing immersion, let's talk about who this program is really for:
- You put off self-care because literally everything else seems more important. I mean, who's got time for this?
- You're perpetually stressed out, exhausted, and quite frankly, a little check-out these days. Planning time for yourself feels like just another chore, and your head hurts just thinking about how you'll fit it in
- You know this go-go-go lifestyle is unsustainable, but it either hasn't caught up with you yet (or at least that's what you're telling yourself as you drink another coffee and stay up past midnight), or you're at a loss over how to break the cycle
- Or maybe you've gotten on the wellness bandwagon and want to be sure you're getting the most out of "me time." You don't have time to waste on self-care that sucks
If any of this sounds like you, trust that you're in the right place. Stick with me.
I'm going to tell you exactly how The AMBIKA Academy will give you the tools, framework, inspiration, and unparalleled encouragement to support you on your journey to radical wellbeing. Even--and especially-- if you think you're too busy.
By the end of this program,
you will have…
-
A paradigm shift in your values and beliefs around putting yourself first
-
A vision for your ideal lifestyle
-
A proven framework to support you in making it a reality
-
A resource bank overflowing with self-care tools you'll actually want to use
-
A highly personalized self-care plan informed by the latest in wellness research
-
A lived experience of self-care that isn't all hard work (although sometimes it is), but can also be simple and fun
-
A renewed sense of hope, self-love, joy, and inner peace
-
and paradoxically, more time to enjoy life
...Maybe you'll even make a few new friends too!
"What an amazing experience!"
"Jen's teaching style and overall demeanor created such a safe and kind environment for me and my peers.
I think the space was what it was because of her gentleness as a professor who appreciates different learning styles, and her compassion as a therapist."

I'm going to let you in on a little secret
Those bubble baths will never be enough.
The world is way too stressful for a soak to solve all your self-care needs. Now, more than ever, we need a commitment to radical wellbeing.
Research shows that in order to live a vital, healthy life, we should include all 6 dimensions of wellness in our self-care. And while that isn't as hard to do as it might sound, it does take a little planning to make sure you're getting a well-rounded diet of downtime.
Here's where The AMBIKA Method® is a game changer. I've created a foolproof framework that supports you in getting your daily dose of self-care. And with the support of The AMBIKA Academy, you'll achieve your wellness goals even faster. With lessons available for you to watch with ease via our mobile app, you can even immerse yourself in weekly practice while in the tub!
So what I'm saying is don't give up bath time. Just make sure it's not the only time you're taking just for you.
What’s Inside The AMBIKA Academy
Module 1
Prepare to Self-Care
Before we dive into the tools and technology of The AMBIKA Method®, we have to set ourselves up for success. One of the biggest reasons people's self-care plans fail is that they haven't taken the time to adequately prepare. We get excited to get going, and that spark quickly fizzles out and we lose interest.
Here's how The AMBIKA Academy is different. We lay a solid foundation from the very beginning so you can rest assured that you'll have the support you need to follow through. We explore the blocks that have gotten in your way, and set a clear vision for your future.

The Easy Yes
No-Stress Promise
I know how hard it can be to say an enthusiastic "yes" to yourself when so many other things are competing for your attention. That's why I'm making it a no-brainer for you to join me inside this program.
I'm confident that if you invest in your wellbeing, your life will change.
I invite you to take 90-days to find out for yourself.
If after 3 months of dedicated self-care you aren't satisfied with the program, email me and I'll give you your money back.
Show up regularly for Office Hours and Practice Labs, complete the assignments, and show me that you're taking the steps I've outlined for you, and I'm sure you'll see results. If after doing all of this you'd prefer to go it alone, I'll happily return your investment.

Still thinking
about it?
The AMBIKA Academy is perfect for you if:
You know there's this elusive thing called "balance" and you're determined to find it
You're tired of finding short-term relief only to become discouraged when whatever gains you've made don't last. You theoretically get that self-care isn't selfish, but you still feel this way. You're ready to shake it. You're willing to do what it takes to make a lasting change in how you treat yourself. Even if that means get a self-care coach and opening up to strangers on the internet.
š
You've tasted radical wellbeing and want more
It's good, isn't it? And it's even better when you've got a supportive container to not just keep it up, but expand your "havingness," -- the ability to add even more goodness into an already-luscious life. You're excited to expand your toolbox and are curious about how the AMBIKA framework can help you to organize which tool you pick up when. You love connecting with a community of like-minded souls who are also invested in living a balanced life, since it inspires you to keep growing.
š
You're in a high-stress helping profession and know that slacking on your self-care is the quickest way to burn out
You've been warned about the dangers of compassion fatigue and are taking the advice to self-care seriously.
The AMBIKA Method® isn't only helpful for reversing the effects of prolonged stress, it's incredible prevention as well. You want a long and happy career. And you know that developing these healthy habits now is one of the best ways to make sure that happens.
You also might be thinking you can "double dip" and load up on tools you can share with your patients or clients. Go for it! Just make sure it'd not at the expense of putting the tools into practice for yourself first. (And know that I'm planning to offer a course for professionals in 2022 specifically to help you share the self-care love, so stay tuned!).
š
You're in, or preparing to go deeper, with therapy
As a licensed therapist with a speciality in trauma resolution, I can say that what you do with those 167 hours of the week when you're not in therapy matters.
People who have a strong foundation of self-support underneath them, or are in the process of developing one, often see greater gains in therapy faster. Learning tools that can assist you to self-regulate more easily will likely make you feel more confident in your ability to tackle difficult material with your therapist.
Who is this program not right for?
This isn't the best fit if:
You're looking for a shortcut or quick-fix
If you start taking better care of yourself now, you'll make progress sooner than if you keep putting self-care off. But there's no rushing the process once we're in it. Good habits take time to build. Once you have them, they'll stick with you--well beyond our 6-months together. But if you're not willing to commit to showing up for the journey, this likely isn't the program for you.
š
You'd rather hang on to your excuses
It's not easy to make a fierce commitment to ourselves. So we blame time or money or other people for making us unable to do the things that we know can help us. We make a lot of space for the resistance that inevitably comes up around prioritizing your wellbeing. There's no expectation that you show up all rainbows and unicorns! But you have to genuinely want to join us. So show up ambivalent and even a little doubtful if you want to. But know I will lovingly challenge you to set down the excuses if you start trying to pick them back up.
š
You're thinking this program would be a good substitute for psychotherapy
The AMBIKA Academy is an excellent compliment to ongoing therapy, but is not designed to replace working directly with a therapist.
I get how this can be confusing, seeing as I am a therapist. But in this capacity I'm your self-care coach (or strategist, mentor, cheerleader, teacher, guide...what you ultimately call me doesn't really matter so long as we're clear that I'm not showing up here in my clinical role).
You'll get a lot of the same self-regulation tools here that I teach my clients and my graduate students. And they'll serve you well should you decide to begin or return to therapy at a later date. But they aren't meant to cure or treat any illness on their own.
While not required, I highly recommend seeking addition support if possible while doing any intensive self-development work. Should you need it, I'll be happy to refer you to a colleague, as I don't provide therapy to members of the AMBIKA Academy while in the program.
I cannot wait for you to join me in The AMBIKA Academy
Practices like the ones I'll teach you have literally transformed my life.
I created this course because like you, I've struggled with prioritizing my own self-care. Before applying the principles of The AMBIKA Method® in my own life, I was teetering on the edge of collapse.
On the outside everything looked put together, but inside my body was rebelling. Eventually it got my full attention, and forced me to take a hard look at how I was living my life. I knew I had to do things differently.
I started by taking one small but mighty action at a time. And you can, too.
If you're ready to make the kind of change that will last a lifetime, join me. Try the program out for 90-days, and if you aren't noticing a difference I'll return your investment.
Even if you don't believe it yet,
I know you're worth it.
Take exquisite care,
š Jen
