A Video Note From Our Founder
So when I first came up with this vision of Savasana, I thought, “How am I going to do this? I don’t want to do this better or worse. I actually want to do this differently from what I personally experienced. And what would someone like me want?”
I wanted to be heard. I wanted to be seen. I wanted to be valued. But I wanted that privately. I wanted that personally. I wanted that space to myself. I didn’t want to have to share everything that had happened in my life and everything I had experienced. I really wanted safety. I wanted confidentiality.
And at Savasana, that’s exactly what we do. We give you the opportunity to heal in a setting that is safe, private and entirely your own.
My philosophy at Savasana is really not about recovery. We talk about identity, we talk about purpose, we talk about values. And the real question is, “Who am I? Who are you?”
When you don’t know who you are and you’re lost in that space, it’s really hard to make decisions because your values are not aligned with your behaviours.
So what we do here at Savasana is really help you with identity. That’s the first question we ask you: “Who are you?”
And we work with you slowly to help you re-establish that alignment. We help you understand who you are beyond the pain, beyond the trauma, beyond the grief, beyond the attachment and the codependency.
Once you discover that, it’s a really beautiful place to be in solitude, because you start to make decisions that are more aligned with who you are. That’s where boundaries come in, healthy communication comes in, and you find freedom.
And for me, throughout my journey, freedom hasn’t been recovery.
Freedom has been peace.
