Aligned & Ascending™

Live Aligned. Ascend Whole.

Why Aligned & Ascending™ Exists

Aligned & Ascending™ exists to support people during moments of transition, reorientation, and internal questioning, when familiar ways of living no longer fit and deeper questions begin to emerge. These moments often show up as  grief, burnout, loss, internal division or a search for something meaningful.

Our work supports the process of integration. We help you make meaning of your experience, reconnect with your inner signals, and bring the mind, body, and inner life back into conversation. The aim is clarity, embodiment, and a more honest way of being whole.

Our Clients

We work with people who are reflective, engaged, and ready to approach change with honesty and care. They often arrive at a point where familiar strategies no longer offer the clarity or stability they once did.

Our clients come from diverse backgrounds and life stages. What unites them is a desire to live with greater internal coherence by integrating insight, embodiment, and meaning in a way that supports lasting change.

Our Method

One of our primary offerings is Tri-Field Integration™, a guided 10-session journey designed to bring the whole self back into conversation.

This process integrates three essential fields of human experience:

  • Mind
    Exploring belief, identity, and meaning-making through reflective and therapeutic-informed approaches that support insight, understanding, and choice.

  • Body
    Reconnecting with breath, sensation, and nervous system regulation through somatic practices and guided breathwork, supporting safety, presence, and embodied awareness.

  • Spirit
    Honoring intuition, values, and inner resonance through contemplative inquiry, visualization, and optional Reiki, creating space for meaning beyond analysis.

Each session intentionally weaves these fields together. Sessions include guided breathwork or somatic regulation, reflective dialogue, Reiki upon request, and integration prompts that support reflection between sessions. This creates a full-spectrum process of integration that unfolds at your own pace, grounded in trauma-informed principles and human presence.

Our Philosophy

Healing is not linear. Integration is not a checklist. Transformation unfolds in layers through relationship, rhythm, and lived experience. What changes us is not insight alone, but how insight is embodied, revisited, and lived over time. Your story is not your prison. It is your portal.

Aligned & Ascending™ is a conscious living practice grounded in the understanding that when the mind is anchored, the body is listened to, and the inner life is honored, people naturally return to coherence, meaning, and agency in their lives.

Realignment begins with small acts of attention.

Live Aligned. Ascend Whole.
To live aligned is to move through life in a way that feels true and internally consistent. To ascend whole is to integrate every part of yourself without bypass or fragmentation.

Transformation does not require becoming someone new. It happens when what once felt divided is brought into relationship and lived with coherence.

Our Approach

Aligned & Ascending™ offers a grounded journey home to yourself for anyone navigating change, integration, or inner reorientation.

While many people encounter this work during midlife transitions, Tri-Field Integration™ also supports other periods of healing, uncertainty, and awakening when life is asking for greater coherence and honesty.

Each session brings together cognitive insight, somatic presence, and meaning-oriented inquiry into one cohesive experience. The work supports deeper listening, more intentional response, and a way of living that feels internally consistent and whole.

About

Meet Samuel

I’m Samuel Washington, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Breathwork Facilitator, and Reiki Master Practitioner.

My work blends decades of professional experience with a holistic approach to integration. I’ve seen how identity shifts in midlife can shake the ground beneath us and I’ve also seen how these thresholds hold the power to awaken us

.

I created Aligned & Ascending™ to offer a path that is both grounded and soulful. A space where psychology, breathwork, and energy practices come together as companions in your journey of integration.

​Tri-Field Integration™ – The Signature Journey

A Pathway of Realignment and Wholeness

There are times in life when what was once familiar no longer seems to fit. What once worked may begin to feel incomplete, misaligned, or unsustainable. These instances often mark the beginning of a deeper opportunity to seek clarity, embodiment, and meaning.

Tri-Field Integration™ is a guided 10-session journey designed to bring the mind, body, and inner life into conversation. When these three fields are integrated, change becomes steadier, more sustainable, and rooted in lived experience rather than effort or force.

 

The Three Fields of Integration

Mind

Explore the stories, beliefs, and patterns that shape your sense of self. Drawing from approaches such as cognitive reframing, parts-based inquiry, and narrative exploration, this field supports insight, meaning-making, and empowered choice.

Body

The body holds experience in ways the mind alone cannot access. Through breathwork, somatic awareness, and nervous system regulation, you learn to release held patterns and develop a more stable sense of presence and vitality.

Spirit - Inner Life

Beyond thought and sensation lies orientation toward meaning and values. Through reflective inquiry, visualization, and optional energy-based practices, this field supports connection to inner guidance and a felt sense of coherence in how you live.

How It Works

  • A guided 10-session journey that integrates reflective dialogue, breathwork, somatic practices, optional Reiki, and meaning-oriented inquiry

  • Sessions typically run 75 to 90 minutes and are offered virtually or in person when available

  • Includes reflection practices, journaling prompts, and integration support between sessions

  • Trauma-informed, compassionate, and responsive to your individual pace and needs

Who It’s For

Tri-Field Integration™ is for individuals across life stages who are seeking greater coherence and integration, including those who are:

  • Navigating change, identity shifts, or questions of direction

  • Moving through grief, burnout, or periods of internal reorganization

  • Responding to an inner call for greater clarity, embodiment, and meaning

Your Journey in Depth

Each session builds on the one before it, creating a steady rhythm of awareness, integration, and realignment. The process is cumulative, allowing insight to settle into the body and daily life over time.

A full session-by-session overview is available as a downloadable PDF for those considering the program.

I had a wonderful breathwork session with Samuel. His voice is very calming, with clear instructions, and the music was amazing. I felt so relaxed and much lighter after class! He held the online space in a very supportive and grounded manner.
