Tea with Maitreyi, Holistic Trauma Therapist

Meet Maitreyi

Hello! I'm Maitreyi. Let me introduce myself a little.

I am a therapist & healer by profession, and authenticity & alignment seeker in general. I believe these elements co-exist and I walk this path navigating them on the daily.

My purpose is multi-faceted. A major portion of it is to be a catalyst for people so that they can live their lives free of pain. I wish to create healing in a way that invites joy, freedom, safety and peace as one moves through the myriad ups and downs of life. I like to call this 'The And Experience'.

Another part of my purpose is to help people connect to their Highest Selves, their Creative Selves and the Source.

I believe that we are an amalgamation of the

Mind-Body-Spirit triad. These three are intrinsically connected and we cannot leave one out of the conversation when it comes to healing from trauma and manoeuvring life's experiences. For this reason, it is imperative that we use a multi-modal approach to help us move through the chaos that life can bring.

About Me

"In order to know the light, we must first experience the darkness."

- C. G. Jung

Each person has a story to tell. This is mine.

Pallavi

“I want to thank Maitreyi for her support and guidance during the ancestral healing process. I had never experienced anything of this sort. It was a compelling experience that led me to realise the generational wounding and limiting beliefs I was carrying. And I have already started seeing some results of the work I did with her. I am glad I took part in it. ”

A lot of times in my private practice, I have clients tell me, "I've gone through this story so many times, why does it keep coming back?"

Part of the puzzle is that talking about it is largely cognitive. It's only at the level of the mind. But your experiences? They live in your body.

So it's only natural that we need to work with the body for deeper shifts to take place, for your body to learn to let go on the tension, to start feeling safe once again. Somatic healing does that.

That doesn't mean you won't get triggered again and that the story won't show up again. But it might mean that your mind and body have more resources, that you are able to hold more within you.

As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I've come to realise that Somatic Touch sessions are a powerful way to help the body come into safety, rest and emotional regulation.

If you'd like to know more, just DM me and we can talk!

Lots of love,
Maitreyi 💜✨

The ultimate AND Experience. The concept of 'moving on' after losing a loved one. It takes a while to recognise that there is no such thing as moving one, that you can live your life And hold the loss close to you.

Just because you live your life doesn't mean you're forgetting them, or betraying their memory.

You're allowed to feel hopeful, excited, experience joy, new things in life, desire something. And yes, there will be grief in that too.

Remember, grief doesn't ask you to stay in the dark to prove that your love was real.

If you've flinched when something good happens in your life, this reminder is for you.

Save it for the next time hope makes your heart stop.

Lots of love,
Maitreyi 💜✨

I've been a little quite here lately so I just thought I'll pop in and say hello!

Just trying to take care of my routine, my health, my grief, work, new business, my relationships, etc. etc. while the world burns around us! It's been a little overwhelming and I'm trying to navigate it in a way that supports my body! It's a new day every day! 😂

How is everyone doing?

Lots of love,
Maitreyi 💜✨

The next session of Riding the Waves of Loss is on 28th July at 6pm.

If you've lost a loved one, and are navigating grief and loss, I'd be happy to hold space for you.

Lots of love,
Maitreyi 💜✨☘️

I recently came across an article about the Window of Choice and it resonated deeply with me. If you're curious about it, look it up.

Both Window of Tolerance and Window of Choice have a place in the therapeutic setting. It is important to understand the nuances and take in the systemic lens as well.

Let me know your thoughts!

Lots of love,

Lately I've been thinking of the word - Flourishing. We've heard about moving from surviving to thriving and somehow, for me, thriving has felt like too big an ask out of my system.

However, 'Flourishing' hasn't. I don't really know why, because they mean pretty much the same thing. But I experience a nuance with them. Maybe because so much has been said about 'Thriving' already. It has felt like to thrive, I need to 'get over' my pain, my past and that is an impossible ask and one that I will never make out of myself.

To me, flourishing has meant coming more into my own self, being able to be unwell and still live my life, to know that it doesn't stop because of loss and pain. It's been about holding both sides - death and aliveness.

My most recent sense of flourishing was participating in a pop up stall. So much grief and so much aliveness collided all at once. And I saw myself riding those waves fully.

I'd love to know how it lands for you - thriving or flourishing? Or something else altogether!

Lots of love,
Maitreyi 💜✨☘️
