TRANSCEND: Meeting your Unconscious Creative
"How do you articulate what you haven't felt before?! Everyone should do this."
Polly DASZKIEWICZ - TRANSCEND GRADUATE
WELCOME - get ready to create the foundations for your genius
I bring you TRANSCEND
This is a pioneering, experiential 1:1 programme crafted with your unconscious creative potential in mind.
By engaging in the three pillars of TRANSCEND, Body - Brain - Breath, the way you create your own world, and create IN your world, is about to change.
If you are looking to drop into a truly personal, internal exploration to reveal the creative potential that lies beneath the surface, untouched by current trends, your conditioning field and the shadows cast by the desire for validation, this is the place for you.
I want you to enhance the full vibrancy of your creative self that does not look to the external first for inspiration, but recognises how you can cultivate the right environment to harness it from within.
This is an invitation to unwrap yourself from a borrowed reality and to live courageously from your deepest marrow-knowing.
This begins with nervous system regulation to bring more rest and receptivity to the system, presence in noticing the nuances and stories in bodily sensations, and the expansion of consciousness offered by conscious connected breathwork. The modalities of breathwork we will use, facilitate brain waves associated with heightened creativity and insight, alongside rest and self-hypnosis - both key to accelerating creative expansion.
You will learn that your own breath, every single inhale and exhale, is a physiological and energetic explosion of creative, life-force energy and so often, we do not honour its potential.
It is then about your ability to transcend the ordinary to experience the extraordinary from your own well of lived experience and imaginative possibility. You are the only you, and therefore your creativity will reflect that. You just have to uncover it.
Along the way you will also recognise that with every minuscule choice you have power over, you fabricate your very existence; a waltz between the unseen and the tangible in waiting.
This is you, in co-creation with something greater.
WHO ARE YOU?
A heart-led CHANGE-MAKER?
Maybe, you are someone who seeks to defy the status quo, who has the urge to do things radically differently (I see you).
Maybe you feel this bubbling creative energy and now want to know how to recognise and harness it for greater personal and societal evolution.
If that's you, how bloody exciting - it is wonderful to have you here.
Let's see what's whats beneath the surface.
PARENT, CEO, Business Owner?
Are you looking to find pockets of rest to keep you vital and therefore your creative energy amped up? Are you hoping to be more productive in the time you have? How do you feel about finding new solutions, generating out of the box ideas, having more ah-ha moments?
Maybe you are looking to find a creative outlet?
By tuning into your breath and body + nervous system, while learning about neuroplasticity, you will be priming the mind and body to open up to and hold on to your innate creative wisdom and insight.
Creative, artist, musician?
Know that the way you are about to connect with your art is going to be given the injection of genius.
As your consciousness expands through exploration of the breath and the science of creative experience, so will the access to your unconscious realm. These are the peak experiences that offer the innermost unique inspiration.
Creative blocks, imposter syndrome, unhelpful self-censorship do not need to be the norm when you are equipped with your own tried-and-tested practices to keep your fuel alight.
TESTIMONIAL
“When I started Transcend, I thought it would be a brilliant way to accelerate my creative practice, to allow me to do more. Instead, it’s peeled away the expectations and conditioning that has been piled on me my whole life, which has left room for inspiration to come in.
As well as allowing me to truly relish the creative journey (not just the outputs!) it’s really allowed me to become attuned to myself. I no longer feel the need to ‘do more’ or ‘be more’ but do things for enjoyment. I am more assured and more inspired than I have ever been, finding true joy and gratitude.
For the first time - probably ever - I truly like myself.
The Transcend journey has been a true gift and I can’t thank you enough.”
TRANSCEND FOUNDING MEMBER
TRANSCENDENCE =
Breath X INspiration
You will use the breath to unwind from stuck emotions and stress to free the body of the tension and armour that limits free, creative expression and thought. It will also be used to access non-ordinary states of consciousness to train creative insight. Your breath is your tool for unrivalled inspiration.
the poetry Of your BODY
Learn to tap into subtle intuitive cues, arising directly from the physical and emotional body. It is a liberating act when we are able to poeticise the emotional landscape of our lived experience. This is creative embodiment.
SCIENce
Learn the neuroscience of the breath, trauma and of your creative process to help re-wire unconscious patterns that are getting in the way of creative liberation.
* Neuroscience will be taught by our in-house neuroscientist Lana Power *
NERVOUS SYSTEM SUPPORT
We cannot access the highest visions we hold if our nervous system cannot support us. In fact, we don't even know how magnificent these visions may be unless we have tended to our foundations. I will support your journey with tips and techniques for nervous system regulation and toning.
decondition INTO THE VISION
De-condition from ancestral and societal views of creativity and recognise the ways your own beliefs may have been holding you back.
YOU ARE AN ORIGINAL
You are truly unique, with your own story and life experiences which means your artistry is and will always be like no other. Imposter syndrome cannot exist in the same space when you know you are literally the only you.
Let's anchor into this through visual and creative exercises to see how the physical manifestation of creation energy wants to be borne. Let's become less rigid by breaking the glass cage of self-censorship.

OUR IN-HOUSE NeUROSCIENTIST
LANA POWER
During the 12 weeks, you will learn the neuroscience of the breath, trauma and their relation to creativity with my in-house neuroscientist and fellow Alchemy of Breath graduate, Lana Power. Lana is an educator, researcher and neuroscientist whose mission is the sacred marriage work between the scientist and the mystic.
THE WHY.
To live creatively, does not require you to be an artist. To live creatively means to live a life brimming with awe. Insight. Vital energy. Wide-eyed and sparkling with innovative, original thought. Questioning the common narrative. Connecting the dots. Being the conscious creator of your own life by understanding that every minuscule choice you make is actively designing this life. Art is simply a bi-product of the energy (and art looks different for everyone) that we have cultivated from within, and it will no doubt naturally come.
We need more of us in touch with the ways we can do things differently but to do this, we need to stop looking externally to what has been done before and seed the new way from within, from a place of presence, openness and curiosity.
It is brave to desire to think and act differently in a world that profits from your creative power being in someone else's hands. It would therefore be my privilege to guide you to develop your own understanding here and what this means to you.
From my experience, my trainings, my client feedback over the years and from the science myself and Lana (your in-house neuroscientist) have to teach you, I know that this journey, TRANSCEND, will be a gateway to access a considerably expanded creative experience of life. This programme is actually bigger in its mission than I first thought, if I am honest.
I have done hundreds of hours of research into creativity and I haven't come across a single book, programme or course that trains us to harness and heighten our creative power, through our own body.
How is this so?
There are countless of these that tell us to learn from what has been done before, to explore new environments for inspiration and influence, to build on what is already there, to learn to take risks (easier said than done), to encourage collaboration, to do your morning pages and to diversify your skill-sets….
All of these are great, essential in fact, and we will definitely consider how we can approach the idea of morning pages (with a hypnogogic twist).
But here, we're doing things differently.
We're flipping the above on its head.
We're recognising the very real fact that unless your own vessel is adequately primed for your own genius, then the above means nothing.
If you can't hear you, you can't be you.
Rather than looking to the outside first to be inspired, you're going to tend to the inside first, empowering you to create the right foundations for true, authentic manifestation of your creative power.
In TRANSCEND, your creativity starts with you;
it doesn't finish with you.
This world profits from you putting your creative power in someone else's hands.
Stress, indecision, and apathy are all the perfect states for someone else taking your reins unconsciously, or even consciously, which is the ultimate mental, physical and creative drain.
Big tech, AI, algorithms, social media…hustle mindsets. No wonder we're exhausted, stagnant and burnt out from information overload and not enough mental and physical rest. Even when we try to rest, we are physically buzzing.
How can you be expect to be creative when the capacity to do things differently is hindered by all the noise?
This is where imposter syndrome, comparison-itis and freeze comes in.
And this is then when we need to begin a de-conditioning process to uncover who we are behind the veil, while tending to environmental factors and the nervous system.
TESTIMONIAL
Transcend was not what I expected, but all that I needed. Ellie’s ability to hold space for you in such a compassionate, considerate, and human way is just amazing. I always felt so supported, and ok to turn up however I was, and that it was always ok, to be however I was. This really helped me to relax, let go, surrender, ultimately leading me to go to depths I haven’t been to before.
Transcend was a beautiful, exciting, inspiring, insightful, surprising experience and I recommend it to anyone who wants to explore and unleash their creative side, or connect to and uncover that creative part you might not think you even have!
Through the sessions we had really tapped into our bodies, our senses, and engaging in different practices and creative activities, I was able to connect to myself in ways I haven’t before, also unlearning stories I had told myself and believed about my ability to do so. I realised I had so much more capacity for connection to myself and my creativity.
I have done breathwork (CCB) with Ellie before, however these breathwork sessions took me further than I have before, and in so many different ways. I had experiences and insights that I could never have imagined possible for me.. It really has expanded my view on what is possible, what I am capable of experiencing, doing, creating.. So much occurred that I can’t share it all here, but I finished Transcend feeling more connected and expansive, and with a knowing that I am an endless well of creativity, and if I continue this on with this journey who knows what other magic will be bought into my life, and into the world.
TRANSCEND GRADUATE
Why Breathwork?
Due to to the nature of breathwork being a practice and a tool for deep healing, you may find that TRANSCEND not only connects you back to your deepest creative essence, but also offers you a new perspective on life. Being able to practise breathwork alongside the rest of the content in the programme, allows you to explore and integrate these new perceptions further: each of you that decides to journey with TRANSCEND will have a very different experience with the breath, and this is a mirror of the human condition, alive in flux and constant change - never the same.
Alongside breathwork for nervous system regulation, I have been working with the conscious connected breath breath since 2020 as a means to help move through stored emotions and trauma. When working with this breath, myself and other breathworkers noticed that alongside the deep healing we have experienced, our creativity has soared. We suspected it was because the more we train our nervous system and our bodies to let go of tension and armour (this is what the breath can do), the more we relax into life. We can't be our most creative selves if we have years of unprocessed emotion and/or symptoms of stress and anxiety. Deep physiological and mental rest is absolutely necessary for creation energy.
And then…a study recently came out showing that those who practice CCB regularly, find increased gamma brainwave states. Gamma waves are the waves associated with the instant insights, the moments of “ah-ha!”, the moments of inner genius that connect the dots. This highest frequency band is also associated with improved working memory and better concentration. Ah HA!
So we now KNOW that our anecdotal experiences are supported by the science. We can actively engage our breath in ways that develops our creativity, as well as our ability to be fully present and aware in life. To add to this, the fact of KNOWING that we can do this, feeds this energy further because if the field of epigenetics has anything to teach us, it is that we are what we think.
This is quite a monumental knowing. That our very own breath can be at the seat of our creative (re)evolution.
getting the most out of your experienCE:
Self reflection + practice + dedication will be key to craft your vessel for heightened insight and create energy. Carve out time each day, outside of our live sessions, to fully embrace the subject matter.
Don't be Shy! Use the WhatsApp space - you will have access to integration support with me 1:1 throughout the entire 12 weeks on two designated days each week. This is your invitation to ask questions, share progress and report back on creative revelations!
Intake form + 1:1 - soon after signing up, I will send you a detailed intake form to fill in, and arrange a short call to explore your creative intentions.
The finer details:
Start date?
As this programme is currently 1:1, we can start at any time!
How will we meet?
Our live sessions will be on Zoom. A recurring Zoom link will be sent prior to the first session.
I will need to see your full body when you are breathing so cameras on will be necessary.
How much time do I need to dedicate to self-study?
Aside from the live breathwork sessions, there will be an element of self-study which will greatly enhance your experience. Each module's content will be drip-fed and will include: journal prompts, recorded presentations, neuroscience teachings by in house neuroscientist Lana Power, recorded meditations and functional breathwork practices. I would therefore recommend between 1.5-4 hours over a 2 week period.
**I have never tried breathwork before, can I still join?
Yes - of course! Your breath is your own incredible tool. I will teach you how to connect deeply with it. There are contraindications to our conscious connected breathwork sessions in the second half of the programme. If you suffer from any serious condition you should check with your doctor prior to breathing. The breath style we will use is not advised for conditions such as bipolar, schizophrenia, glaucoma, stomach or brain aneurisms, acute heart conditions, uncontrolled thyroid disorders, high blood pressure, epilepsy or pregnancy.
By signing up to TRANSCEND, you agree to seek medical advice if you do not believe that you are in a position to breathe safely. You are welcome to reach out at [email protected] for a chat first if you have any questions.
I've heard breathwork can release strong emotions - is this true?
Yes! This is an incredible tool that you have right under your nose. It is possible and very normal for deeper breathwork sessions to release stored emotions (sometimes held for years) from the physical, emotional and energetic body. This can occasionally result in a stronger emotional and physical experience. If these experiences feel a little too strong, know that you are empowered to alter your participation and engagement with the breath at any time.
About Ellie
Outside of TRANSCEND, I am a Breathwork Facilitator, Reiki Master and Human Design Reader here to help clients connect back to their truest sense of creative self.
I am studying an MA in Creative Practice - utterly brilliant and expansive.
I find joy through music and exploring soundscapes in the recording studio; I am a musician supported by BBCintroducing and championed by radio presenters like Frank Skinner - Absolute Radio.
Nature is my ultimate awe-inducer. Spring is my favourite - it's like the first sip of coffee after a detox. The burst of fresh energy reminds me of the aliveness present in living cyclically. We do cannot truly appreciate when cycles oh change go unacknowledged and unappreciated.
I love red wine and espresso martinis. I also love sobriety so as with following the seasons, I take periods of rest for regeneration and cleansing.
I am forever fascinated by the possibility of expansiveness: we don't know what we don't know, so true possibility is limitless. Find me in Gene Keys rabbit holes, or deep in quantum theory thought loops. Never needing to know the answers, but activated by the journey of unlearning and unbeckoming.
I believe that our education can rob us of our innate genius which is what I try to reverse in TRANSCEND.
I was literally born to provoke and unblock stagnant energy. I initiate change - ask my clients. If you are on a cosmic journey like me, you may like to know that in Human Design I am a Manifestor, here to impact and inject creative vision into spaces and places, and I am an Aries - pioneering, impatient and endlessly curious in action. I love to lead, and I love to learn. Always living in an interplay between being a beginner, and a teacher.
Reiki altered my path, Breathwork changed my life; it made it bigger and it made it more meaningful. In my first ever breathwork session, I heard the words “if all leaders in the world could feel this joy, there would be no more war”. This is all I needed to evoke a 180 life-change. I didn't look back.
I am fiery. I have a solar flare in me that wants to create a more awakened society and with that, the flames are sometimes fanned. Peace and aloneness is then my medicine to refuel.
I don’t always find the marrying of the masculine and feminine energies in me entirely easeful; we weren’t born to awkwardly straddle the two and so I dedicate myself learning the ways of the weaver.
I find the thought of ageing exhilarating and tantalising. To live with a curious mind as the furrows form must defy all sense of unease.
I love to love.
