Running on empty? I know the feeling.

A few years ago I was exhausted and burnt-out from overwork. I pushed through on caffeine, snapped at loved-ones, got sick for the first time and collapsed into bed at night thinking, “Is this it?”

Now I coped, but I wasn’t thriving, wasn’t happy and really approached a line that could have led to very serious health issues.

I hit a wall – physically, mentally and emotionally. Trauma, grief, and just the nature of modern life had taken their toll. My dad died of a heart attack and I remember thinking I didn’t want to go out that way just yet.

So eventually, I adapted what I knew from embodiment and nervous system health studies, and got myself together. With help from friends and colleagues like Helen – nobody does it alone – I found a gentler, more forgiving way to practice.

There are no quick fixes or “magic bullets”, but things really can improve!

Want to live happily, healthily & on-purpose?

Now that I’m healthier, happier and more vibrant, I want to share this approach with others. If your body’s whispering “enough,” is it time to nourish yourself? Life isn’t something to just cope with, burnout is no joke, and a healthier life is possible.

Helen and I created Embodied Flourishing because we know what it’s like to feel stuck in survival mode… AND what it takes to move beyond it. These days it seems like everyone is in need of some gentle, nourishing practice too, as we live in a burnt out society.

This is for people who want to feel healthy, purposeful, and more like themselves again. No hype. No pressure. Just simple tools, community support, and a more sustainable way forward.

If that’s what you’re looking for, this might be for you…

Embodiment Unlimited presents...

Embodied Flourishing:

from breakdown to breakthrough

Go beyond quick fixes for burnout or health struggles with a journey that empowers you to feel genuinely alive again. No more pushing through day after day. It includes:

Carefully paced explorations to foster a deep-rooted sense of wellbeing.

Practical tools to sustain health, calm, and meaning during life’s messy moments.

Ongoing community support to share experiences, receive feedback, and grow alongside others who “get it.”

If you’re ready to start truly enjoying life, Embodied Flourishing might be for you.

What embodiment leaders say…

How does this work?

We’ve found that long-term practice in a supportive community is what leads to lasting transformation. There are no “magic bullets” or quick fixes. That’s why Helen and I created Embodied Flourishing, an ongoing program where you:

Access fresh “journeys” (short courses) at an affordable price every two months.

Enjoy sustained community support by practising alongside like-minded people for motivation, feedback, and encouragement.

Drop-in when you like so that there’s no pressure and you can’t fall “behind” – come weekly, monthly, or just listen to recordings whilst going for a walk.

The first four months focus on nervous system health through different lenses before moving onto boundaries, trauma superpowers, abundance, and leadership to help you to truly flourish in all areas.

In the future we also delve deeper into embodied spirituality, resilience, relationships, mental health, lifestyle, and meditation.

We have fresh content planned for two years, but you can cancel anytime if it’s not a fit.

Weekly live webinars

We’re live every Thursday at 5pm UK time, which is 6pm CET, 12pm EDT, 9am PDT or 2am AEST.

Convert to your timezone here>>>

However, these live calls are optional and there for when you need extra support. Come as often or as little as you like, and feel free to simply listen along when going for a walk. There’s no required screen time.

You’ll also have access to recordings if you prefer to watch in your own time. If you can’t come live at all, it’s also possible to simply get recordings access.

Why these journeys work

Each journey integrates what you’ve previously learned with what you know. This allows you to grow at a pace that works for you.

We’ve also done the hard work of piecing things together so you don’t need to read a heap of books or join tonnes of different courses. It’s all here.

Embodied Flourishing gives you a comprehensive toolkit that’s rooted in your body’s wisdom, guided by clear purpose, and sustained by healthy boundaries, deep connections, and supportive relationships.

The 5 flowers of flourishing

A powerful nervous system refreshment: Retrain your nervous system at the deepest level. No more short-term stress relief that fizzles out. Learn proven embodiment techniques that really stick.

Easy, practical tools for busy lives: Life can be overwhelming. Instead of a lifestyle overhaul, use short, flexible practices that fit into your day. Small, meaningful steps bring you closer to a life you love without extra stress.

Lasting habits: Don’t slip back into old patterns when crisis hits. Our structured, sustainable approach ensures that what you learn becomes second nature, so you can flourish, even when the sh*t hits the fan.

Have fun tuning into your purpose: Rediscover (or refine) your “why” by blending embodied inquiries with playful explorations. This isn't a chore. Stay healthy, happy, and resilient by living in alignment with what truly matters.

Community that “gets” you: Being seen is half the battle. We nurture a genuinely respectful, growth-focused environment. Get the encouragement you need to push past your leading edge and unlock new potential, together.

If you are...

… then the Embodied Flourishing membership might be for you.

Why this time might be different

“Many of us have a shelf full of self-help books or half-finished courses gathering dust. When life gets chaotic, and it’s tough to stick with anything… especially when deep transformation takes time.

So we soldier on and do our best. But if you’re near – or already at – burnout, grappling with health issues, or unsatisfying relationships, maybe it’s time for something different. This could be what you’re looking for. It’s structured yet gentle and supportive rather than sink-or-swim.

Embodied Flourishing unfolds at a pace that respects your life. We guide you step-by-step, month-to-month, giving you space to integrate new practices without adding more stress. Think of it as a gentle fix – the kind that actually works.

Let’s be honest: real healing and growth doesn’t happen overnight. Personally, it took me over a year to recover from burnout, and two years to truly flourish. Helen had a similar timeline for health problems and chronic fatigue. That might sound long, but you’ll also see noticeable changes in the first four months (our Meaning and Nervous System Health “journeys”), and you can cancel anytime if it’s not a fit.

The key? You can’t just think your way out of chronic stress, heartbreak, or health problems. Practice is essential. If you’re stuck in fight-or-flight or shutdown, deeper rewiring is needed. That’s what we focus on. We also circle back to your deeper ‘why,’ so motivation lasts beyond the initial buzz. A supportive group makes it so much easier, too, as most of us lose momentum alone.

Embodied Flourishing includes:

Weekly calls for structure and motivation
A friendly small group who’ll check on you if you vanish
Accountability for small, manageable practices (only if you want it)

With all this, it’s genuinely great value. Compare it to a typical course fee, a regular yoga class, or even a daily coffee habit.

So whether you’re in a tough spot or just love lifelong learning, you’re welcome here.

Let’s have some fun and actually enjoy our lives again.”

Frequently Asked Questions

The basics

Can I just come to practice embodiment?

Sure – that’s what it’s mainly about. It’s not limited to those suffering for burnout or health problems.

What if I'm not burnt out?

Well, in some sense we live in a burnt-out society. Like the taste of our own mouth or smell of our own house, we often don’t realise until we’re removed from that situation (hey holidays!).

But even if you’re not, this will help you enjoy life more now and help you to avoid any problems down the road, too.

How does the two-year cycle work? Can I join anytime?

Structure: We explore different themes (like Boundaries, Trauma Superpowers, Leadership) over ~8-week journeys.
Recommended Start: April 17, 2025, so you can journey alongside everyone else. But yes, you can join later.
Pause/Cancel: If you leave or pause, you lose access (like a gym).

If you stay the full two years, you unlock lifetime access to the recordings (either through staying monthly for two years or paying up-front for two years).

What happens if I miss classes?

Nothing! This is to serve you

Come live when it works for you.

If you miss sessions that you’d like to watch, simply catch up by watching the recordings.

Who’s teaching?

The core teachers and Mark Walsh and Dr. Helen Machen-Pearce.
Guest Specialists include Christina Dohr, Karin van Maanen, Jane Dancey, Carolina Padilla, Maša Nobilo and Patricia Aguirre.

Learn more about all the teachers here.

How often are the live calls? What time?

Frequency: A weekly call every Thursday at 5pm UK time (see the schedule), other than the 3-week integration break over Christmas / New Year’s.
Time Zones: 5pm UK time is 12pm ET, 9am PT or 2am AEST.
Recordings: Posted within 48 hours (often sooner), so you can watch anytime.

Fit & suitability

Do I need prior embodiment experience? What if I’m advanced?

Beginner-Friendly: We cover foundational tools, so no experience is needed.
Advanced-Friendly: If you’re already seasoned, there’s deeper material (trauma-sensitive approaches, leadership) that will help you to unlock your potential.

I’m burned out, have health issues, or low energy. Is this for me?

Yes – Embodied Flourishing is designed to be flexible and supportive. In fact, it’s what we (Mark and Helen) wish we had when we were going through similar things.

We offer short, gentle practices you can adapt daily, even if you’re dealing with fatigue or health struggles.

I have very little free time. Is this still worth joining?

Yes: Live sessions are great if you can attend, but you can also watch recordings whenever.
Short Practices: Many techniques can be done in just a few minutes each day. Small, consistent steps over two years can be deeply transformational.

You mention spirituality. Is this tied to any particular spiritual or religious approach?

No: We welcome all backgrounds and faiths.

While we discuss meaning and spiritual angles, there’s no single dogma. You choose what works for you.

Is it a medical intervention or therapy?

No: This is an educational program, not a substitute for professional medical care.

We don’t diagnose or treat.

If you have serious trauma or health issues, we recommend external professional support.

Can this work if I have a history of trauma?

Yes, with Care: We use a trauma-sensitive approach, but we’re not therapists.

If you’ve experienced significant trauma, please make sure you have the professional help you need, as embodied work goes deep, fast so can be triggering.

What if I’m sensitive or easily-offended?

Mark (and Helen) value honesty and a bit of humour. Sometimes the jokes can be edgy.

If you believe in the concept of being offended, you may not enjoy this.

We respect everyone, but will joke about everyone, too

Live Calls + Community: You’re not left alone with a pile of videos you never watch. We provide real-time feedback and a supportive network.
Two-Year Arc: Quick-fix programs often fizzle when the sh*t hits the fan. This provides a gentler, sustainable approach that allows you to form lasting habits.

I hate woo-woo, new-age self-help “fluff.” Will I fit in here?

Yes: Our approach is practical, embodied and fun.

If you want to shag unicorns with your crystal chakra, you might not like our approach. However, if you find that image amusing, then you may not actually hate us

Payment, access & logistics

What about payment?

Options: There’s a monthly and two-year option, depending on your budget and commitment.
Cancel or Pause Anytime: Once you cancel (or pause), your access ends at the next billing cycle (or until to restart)
Recommendations: We encourage you to try at least one full journey for a fair shot. If you’re joining from the start, the first two (Meaning and Nervous System Health) are foundational, so it’d be even better if you stayed for both of those.

Are the sessions recorded? What if I miss a week?

Yes: Everything’s recorded and typically posted within 48 hours.
Catch Up: If you’re swamped one week, just watch the replay later. Some members primarily rely on recordings and just drop in live if they need some extra support.

Will I have lifetime access if I cancel?

Generally No: You only retain access while you’re a paying member (like a gym).

However, if you complete the full two-year journey, either monthly or by paying up-front, you’ll get bonus lifetime access to the recordings as a bonus.

What if I join and decide it’s not for me?

Cancel Anytime: You pay only for the months you stay.
Minimum Try: We suggest completing at least the first two 8-week modules (Meaning & Nervous System) to lay strong foundations.

Where can I apply these tools?

Everywhere: Parenting, relationships, deadline stress, daily annoyances.

The goal is to make deep, embodied shifts second nature in daily life.

Will I get a professional qualification?

No: This is personal learning, not a coaching certification.

If you want to teach these tools, you may like our Certification of Embodiment Coaching (CEC).

Can I use these tools with my clients?

Sure, but… The membership is aimed at your personal transformation.

You might integrate the insights with your own style, but you’re not officially certified to coach them, and ethically, we generally recommend not doing so.

What if I’m not comfortable in large groups?

Small Breakouts: We often use smaller group rooms during calls for deeper connection.
No Pressure: You can participate as much or as little as you like.

Can I sign up with my partner or friend under one membership?

No: Everyone needs their own membership, similar to a gym.
Possible Discounts: If two or more are keen, email Virginia on support@embodimentunlimited.com about potential multi-person deals.

What about the cost - will I get my money back?

Compared to burnout, the toll of unhandled stress (medical bills, lost productivity) can be far higher.

You’ll also likely go to another level in whatever you currently do, so we hope this will more than pay for itself over time.

Is there homework or required work?

No Mandatory Assignments: We suggest practices to maximise benefits. Even a few minutes a day can be transformative. However, this isn’t required.
Your Choice: You’re free to go deeper or just do the basics – results often match effort.

Do I have to attend live every week?

No: Live attendance is great for community Q&A, but we don’t track attendance. Replays and flexible scheduling make it doable for most.

What happens right after I join?

Welcome Email: You’ll receive login details, a link to our learning platform, and any bonus material.
Next Steps: Check out intros, add live session dates to your calendar, and engage with the community space if you wish.

Still have questions?

No problem – email Virginia on support@embodimentunlimited.com. We’d rather clear things up than have you miss a chance to flourish with us.

If you have a question that’s not answered in the FAQs above, email Virginia at support@embodimentunlimited.com
