the awakening hearts Circle Program

3 month Online Mentorship with Soraya

Guidance, Connection and Transformation

with Soraya Saraswati

This program is for those who feel the quiet pull to live from truth rather than habit or conditioning.

Not to become something new, but to see more clearly what is already here — and what we are not.

Together we create a space for honest self-inquiry, shared presence, and embodied exploration. A space where the heart can soften, the mind can rest, and awareness can deepen naturally.

This is not about fixing yourself.

It is about recognising what has always been present beneath the patterns.

Over three months, we walk steadily and honestly together.

Using the chakra system as a practical map, we explore the patterns, defences, and identities that shape how we experience ourselves and the world. Not to analyse or improve them, but to understand them directly — so that what is no longer needed can loosen and release.

A Return to Love

and Authentic Living - Day to Day

We'll walk steadily and honestly together.
unwinding, clarifying, and returning to the simplicity of being.

This Course may suit you if you:

  • Want a grounded foundation in awareness and embodied practice
  • Already engage in self-inquiry but meet recurring emotional or mental blocks
  • Want more depth and clarity in your meditation and inner work
  • Feel disconnected from your body, emotions, or inner sense of direction
  • Value practical tools for nervous system regulation and emotional steadiness
  • Prefer a trauma-aware, gentle approach rather than forceful methods
  • Are willing to look honestly at long-held patterns
  • Want to live with more authenticity and presence

No prior experience is needed — only a genuine willingness to look and to listen inwardly.

This is not a fluffy new age program – It is grounded in solid knowledge and wisdom with a life changing structure.
