Welcome

The Universal Family approach invites you to investigate your subtle, imminent experience directly, opening to the possibility that the wholeness you seek is to be found there.

A series of six investigations, outlined below, deepen understanding, liberate you from limiting beliefs, and reveal the life-affirming qualities of aliveness and wholeness of your essential being.

Live sessions with Freyja along with her book “Naturally Being” support these investigations. In these sessions, you will receive resources and exercises to carry out, and you will have a space to discuss your lived experiences and address any questions. The live sessions are booked at your convenience. A sliding scale fee is available.

As a psychotherapist, writer, and educator,and life long spiritual practitioner, I've spent decades integrating non-dual wisdom with social psychology, discovering profound liberation from fear, self-doubt, and limiting beliefs. This journey led me to develop The Universal Family. This approach has already helped those who have studied it and earned endorsements from leading advisors (see about page on main menu).

The Six Investigations

Reality Is One
All reality is a seamless, unified whole. The simple awareness of this moment—ever-present, open, and clear—is what you fundamentally are. Personal thoughts do not limit this aware presence (referred to as beingness). What we perceive as thoughts, bodily sensations, and environmental perceptions arise spontaneously and eventually dissolve back into this aware beingness, which naturally encompasses love.

Naturally Being 

When you directly recognise beingness as your essential nature, there is openness and "spaciousness" to your being that welcomes all transient experiences. Resting more deeply as beingness, your life-affirming loving nature becomes apparent. What is perceived as the body and world is experienced as appearances of beingness, recognising that beingness is the one reality. You are a no-thing reality that is everything appearing as something.

Freedom From Thinking That Knows You As A Separate Self

When habitual emotionally reactive thoughts arise, such as "I must control" or "something must be fixed in order to be complete" or "I am incapable of being happy", understand that the premise of being a separate self in time and space cannot be known as true, and we can remain as the openness of not knowing.

Being Free Of Feelings That Know You As A Separate Self

Emotional contractions in the embodied mind arise when the thought insists that beingness is personal and separate. This belief causes suffering through avoidance, suppression, or emotional reaction to these sensations as we are identifying with them and trying to fix them in some way. Understand that these sensations are merely expressions of loving beingness, wrongly interpreted through the lens of the embodied mind, which perceives reality in patterns. As loving beingness, we can clearly see that we are not identified with the embodied mind, bodily sensations, or emotional intensity tied to a narrative of separation and threat. 

Healthy Nourishment Of The Body

As sensations and thoughts appear, recognise their innate loving intelligence. Instead of fearing or resisting these sensations, hold them with affectionate curiosity, knowing they are intelligent forms of the loving beingness you are.  Clarity will naturally emerge, revealing clear actions about needs of the embodied mind.

Celebrating Being Loving Beingness

As limiting beliefs lose their grip, innate aliveness and innocent, playful creativity spontaneously express themselves. Impersonal actions, words, ideas, and creativity emerge. Life naturally unfolds as an immediate, authentic expression of a loving being. Here, we can address the healing of the embodied mind where necessary and also how we behave in relation to others and society.
