A Conversation with Keli Carpenter, Founder of Therapy for the Soul

I feel so blessed to have met Keli Carpenter! Keli helps so many embrace the ebbs and flows of life, including its messiness. "The ultimate act of love," Keli says, "is to embrace this moment" and to "see someone in their wholeness." She observes that every human wants to be seen, held and loved, and she helps people access this ability, holistically, and with conscious support. Keli is a gifted healer, who is based in British Columbia, and conducts retreats and other healing offerings in Canada, Mexico and Europe, both online and in person. Keli started practicing transcendent meditation at the age of six, following the lead of her mother who was a seeker. Keli could feel the pain her mother was carrying and how it impeded her mother's ability to love and be loved. Keli used transcendent meditation to heal herself. She was able to pass the healing gifts of meditation to her three adult children, who range in age from 19 to 24. She now trains other healers, and focuses a good part of her practice on healing other mothers. Keli is a Chopra Center Certified Transcendent Meditation (PSM®) Instructor, Conscious Relationship, Uncoupling and Parenting Coach and Conscious Connected Breathwork Facilitator, Mentor and Trainer. Keli is also a published author, has professionally studied with Gabor Maté and is the founder of both The Other Side of Average – Therapy for the Soul and the TOSA Method. Keli has trained, mentored and guided more than 100 breathwork facilitators and organized and supported five breathwork retreats/graduation training events.  Keli's commitment to conscious living has allowed her to raise three beautiful children with mindfulness, overcome limiting self-concepts, heal her body of disease, and accomplish pain-free childbirth. Pain-free childbirth! She shares in this episode how she was able to do that, and offers expecting moms a resource to access the wisdom in their bodies. With well over 25 years of both meditation and somatic healing experience, her gift is in holding sacred space and helping clients learn and master the three most essential tools that help align us with our soul’s purpose — one's essential nature and the truest expression of one's self — all while healing and transcending past resentments and stories that have kept us stuck and in pain. It is then that we experience the miracles and fulfillment of life in every moment and embody the presence to hold safe space for others to evolve beyond their story.  Keli’s philosophy is not to become your guru or healer but rather to hold the space needed for you to bring light to your darkness, helping you awaken the power you already have. Keli speaks about breaking cycles of trauma; how every challenge has a gift with it; where trauma and consciousness meet; the utility of different types of meditation; therapy for the soul; mental emotional patterns that can fall away; imagining a world where moms are held; learning how to transform her own mental and emotional patterns and reclaim her voice; and the impact on children when their mothers are able to access their compassion and inner wisdom. It is never too late, moms out there, to do the work Keli offers. In fact, Keli's work is primarily with mothers and training other facilitators/therapists. As Keli says, "No matter what your age, think of how you would feel if your mom became more compassionate and was able to truly see you? What impact would that have on you?"
