Core Qualities of Sovereignty

These five pillars help you cultivate the freedom and authenticity you seek. Tap each quality to learn more.

Self‑Awareness

Self‑awareness is the practice of observing your thoughts, emotions and patterns without judgement. When you witness your inner landscape with compassion you gain clarity and insight into what truly drives you.

Self‑Determination

Self‑determination is the ability to chart your own course and make choices aligned with your values and purpose. It invites you to trust your capability to create the life you desire.

Self‑Trust

Self‑trust means believing in your inner wisdom and relying on your own judgement. When you trust yourself, you become less swayed by outside opinions and more grounded in your truth.

Self‑Attunement

Self‑attunement is the art of listening deeply to your body’s signals, emotions and intuition. This gentle awareness helps you make choices that honour your well‑being.

Personal Integrity

Personal integrity is about aligning your actions with your core values. It’s committing to honour your truth even when it’s challenging, creating a life rooted in authenticity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this workshop virtual or in‑person?

Our sessions are held live online using a secure video platform so you can join from wherever you feel most comfortable. We intentionally create a warm, interactive virtual space that feels as personal and engaging as being together in person.

What if I can't attend all the sessions?

We know life can be full and unpredictable. All of our meetings are recorded and posted in our private community space, so if you miss a class you can catch up at your own pace. You’ll still be able to engage with the material and feel supported by the group.

Are scholarships available?

We believe healing should be accessible. Scholarships and sliding‑scale payment options are available on a case‑by‑case basis. Please email demystiphi@gmail.com to discuss financial assistance or arrange a flexible payment plan that works for you.

What materials do I need?

Just bring yourself, an open heart and a curious spirit. We provide digital workbooks, materials and resources for you to use during and after the workshop. Having a notebook and pen nearby can help you capture insights and reflections.

What if I'm new to mindfulness or therapeutic topics?

If you're new to mindfulness or unfamiliar with sovereignty, that's perfectly okay. Our exploration of these topics is crafted for everyday individuals with no prior experience. We introduce concepts gently and offer guidance so that you feel at ease and empowered to learn.

Will I be required to be vulnerable and share personal details?

You are always in control of what you share. There's no expectation to be vulnerable before you're ready. It's completely okay to just listen and reflect. The workshop is designed to offer support at whatever level you feel comfortable engaging.
