SOUL PSYCHOLOGY® 101
EXPLORE WHAT IT MEANS TO BE CONSCIOUSNESS HAVING A HUMAN EXPERIENCE.
A 6-WEEK INTENSIVE WITH DR. LISHA ANTIQUA
Soul Psychology 101 is an introduction to Dr. Lisha Antiqua’s Soul Psychology® philosophy and body of study.
Over six weeks, you’ll explore the relationship between consciousness and the human vessel, including your Body, Mind, Emotions, and Etheric Field, while examining how trauma, survival, sensitivity, intuition, embodiment, personal authority, and conscious creation shape the way you experience your life.
This course brings together modern inquiry, transpersonal psychology, lived experience, ancient wisdom, energy, intuition, and consciousness without requiring you to reduce the human experience to only one way of understanding it.
YOU ARE MORE THAN YOUR BODY.
MORE THAN YOUR THOUGHTS.
MORE THAN YOUR EMOTIONS.
YOU ARE THE CONSCIOUSNESS EXPERIENCING THEM.

WHY SOUL PSYCHOLOGY®?
YOU CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU
AND STILL NOT FULLY UNDERSTAND YOURSELF.
We can learn about our childhood, relationships, trauma, thought patterns, emotions, nervous system, and behavior and still have questions that those explanations do not completely answer.
Why do I feel disconnected from myself?
Why do I absorb what other people are feeling?
How do I know the difference between intuition, fear, and hypervigilance?
Why can I understand a pattern and still feel unable to change it?
What happens to our relationship with ourselves when survival becomes more familiar than consciously living?
And what does it mean to experience life as consciousness through a human body?
Soul Psychology® creates a place to explore those questions.
It looks at the human experience through the relationship between consciousness and the vessel through which we experience life:
BODY • MIND • EMOTIONS • ETHERIC FIELD
Rather than reducing you to one part of your experience, Soul Psychology® asks us to become curious about the relationship between all of them.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR STORY MATTERS.
UNDERSTANDING THE PERSON EXPERIENCING THAT STORY OPENS ANOTHER LEVEL OF INQUIRY.
A FOUNDATION OF SOUL PSYCHOLOGY®
CONSCIOUSNESS DOESN’T EXPERIENCE LIFE IN ISOLATION.
IT EXPERIENCES LIFE THROUGH YOU.
THE MOVEMENT OF AWARENESS
CONSCIOUSNESS
↓
THE HUMAN VESSEL
↓
BODY | MIND | EMOTIONS | ETHERIC FIELD
Within Soul Psychology®, the soul is understood as consciousness, the aware presence experiencing your human life.
That experience happens through what Dr. Lisha calls the human vessel.
Your vessel includes four interconnected dimensions:
BODY
Your physical experience of being human. Sensation, movement, physical needs, responses, and the way you inhabit your body.
MIND
Thought, perception, interpretation, beliefs, memory, meaning, and the stories through which you understand your experience.
EMOTIONS
Your capacity to feel, respond, connect, express, protect, and experience the emotional dimensions of being alive.
ETHERIC FIELD
The energetic and subtle dimension of experience explored within Soul Psychology®, including sensitivity, intuition, energetic awareness, and how you experience yourself in relationship to the energy around you.
These dimensions do not operate separately.
What happens in one can influence how you experience the others.
Trauma, relationships, survival, spiritual experiences, sensitivity, beliefs, and life itself can all affect how connected you feel to your vessel and how consciously you participate through it.
Soul Psychology 101 gives us a framework for becoming curious about those relationships rather than studying each part of ourselves in isolation.
THE GOAL IS NOT TO ESCAPE THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE.
IT IS TO BECOME MORE CONSCIOUS WITHIN IT.
THE 6-WEEK INTENSIVE
UNDERSTAND YOUR SENSITIVITY.
DEVELOP YOUR DISCERNMENT.
LEARN HOW TO WORK WITH YOUR GIFTS.
Soul Psychology 101 begins by giving you a framework for understanding consciousness and your human experience.
From there, we move into the intuitive and energetic territory many sensitive people experience but were never taught how to understand or manage.
This is not about convincing you what to believe.
It is about giving you language, practices, and a framework for exploring your own experience with greater awareness, discernment, and personal authority.
LIVE 6-WEEK INTENSIVE WITH DR. LISHA ANTIQUA
Begin with the foundations of Soul Psychology®.
Explore soul and consciousness, the Body, Mind, Emotions, and Etheric Field, and what can happen to our relationship with ourselves through trauma, survival, disconnection, and identity.
We’ll also begin exploring embodiment, personal authority, and the difference between surviving your experience and consciously participating in it.
What does it mean to be highly sensitive, empathic, intuitive, or spiritually perceptive?
Explore sensitivity, intuition, empathic awareness, hypervigilance, energetic perception, and spiritual experience.
Begin learning how to observe what you experience without automatically fearing it, dismissing it, or assuming every sensation or impression means the same thing.
Explore the different forms intuitive information may take.
Include:
Also explore how more than one clair may operate together and why every intuitive person does not experience information in the same way.
Being sensitive to other people does not mean everything you feel belongs to you.
Explore empathic awareness, emotional and energetic sensitivity, environmental sensitivity, and the challenge of separating your own internal experience from what you may be perceiving around you.
Practice discernment through questions such as:
Sensitivity becomes easier to navigate when you stop experiencing yourself as powerless within it.
Explore personal and energetic authority, boundaries, permission, intention, attention, spiritual practices, and your relationship with what you choose to engage with.
Learn to become more deliberate about what you allow into your attention, space, practices, and energetic experience.
Central questions include:
Bring the course together by learning practices for protecting, clearing, grounding, and intentionally working with your sensitivity.
Explore ways to prepare yourself before spiritually or energetically demanding situations, recognize when you feel overloaded, clear after interactions or experiences, return attention to yourself, and intentionally close practices rather than remaining energetically “open.”
The goal is not to become afraid of energy or the unseen.
The goal is to learn how to move through your experience with greater discernment, boundaries, confidence, and personal authority.
YOUR SENSITIVITY DOES NOT HAVE TO RUN YOUR LIFE.
YOU CAN LEARN TO UNDERSTAND IT, DISCERN IT, WORK WITH IT, AND DECIDE HOW YOU WANT TO USE IT.
WHEN YOU FEEL MORE THAN YOU KNOW HOW TO MANAGE
YOUR GIFTS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FEEL
LIKE SOMETHING YOU NEED TO ESCAPE FROM.
Maybe you have always known you were sensitive.
You feel other people deeply. You notice shifts in a room. You have dreams, impressions, sensations, or moments of knowing that are difficult to explain.
Sometimes your intuition feels clear.
Other times, fear, past experiences, hypervigilance, your own emotions, and what you sense around you can become difficult to separate.
Without discernment, sensitivity can feel overwhelming.
You may shut it down, become afraid of it, absorb everything around you, question yourself constantly, or give every feeling and impression more authority than it deserves.
Soul Psychology® 101 approaches sensitivity differently.
The goal is not simply to become “more open.”
It is to become more conscious about how you experience your sensitivity and more discerning about what you do with the information you receive.
THE DISCERNMENT PROGRESSION
NOTICE WHAT YOU EXPERIENCE.
QUESTION WHAT IT MEANS.
DISCERN WHAT IS YOURS.
CHOOSE WHAT YOU ENGAGE WITH.
CLEAR WHAT YOU DO NOT WANT TO CARRY.
RETURN TO YOURSELF.
SENSITIVITY WITHOUT PERSONAL AUTHORITY CAN FEEL OVERWHELMING.
SENSITIVITY WITH DISCERNMENT, BOUNDARIES, AND PRACTICE CAN BECOME SOMETHING YOU KNOW HOW TO WORK WITH.
WHAT YOU TAKE WITH YOU
THE GOAL ISN’T TO MAKE YOU MORE SENSITIVE.
IT’S TO HELP YOU BECOME MORE SKILLED WITH THE SENSITIVITY YOU ALREADY HAVE.
By the end of the six-week intensive, you will have a framework for understanding your experiences and practical ways to work with them more consciously.
UNDERSTAND YOUR OWN INTUITIVE LANGUAGE
Recognize the different clairs and begin identifying the ways intuitive information tends to present itself for you.
STRENGTHEN DISCERNMENT
Practice questioning an impression before deciding what it means and learn to distinguish among intuition, your own emotions, fear, memory, hypervigilance, and other possible influences.
MANAGE EMPATHIC SENSITIVITY
Become more aware of when you may be absorbing or reacting to the emotional atmosphere around you and practice returning your attention to your own experience.
DEVELOP PERSONAL + ENERGETIC AUTHORITY
Become clearer about what you engage with, what you allow, what you release, and where your boundaries belong.
WORK WITH YOUR GIFTS INTENTIONALLY
Move away from feeling constantly open or at the mercy of every impression and toward consciously deciding when and how you engage your sensitivity.
PROTECT + CLEAR YOUR ENERGY
Learn grounding, boundary, protection, clearing, and closing practices you can use before, during, and after energetically demanding experiences.
TRUST YOURSELF WITHOUT BELIEVING EVERYTHING YOU FEEL
Develop a healthier relationship with intuition by combining openness with questioning, observation, discernment, and conscious choice.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SHUT DOWN YOUR SENSITIVITY TO FEEL SAFE.
AND YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GIVE EVERY FEELING, IMPRESSION, OR ENERGY AUTHORITY OVER YOU.
YOU CAN LEARN TO WORK WITH YOUR GIFTS WHILE REMAINING THE AUTHORITY IN YOUR OWN LIFE.
BRING YOUR QUESTIONS.
BRING YOUR EXPERIENCES.
BRING THE THINGS YOU HAVE NEVER QUITE KNOWN HOW TO EXPLAIN.
WE’LL EXPLORE THEM TOGETHER.

MEET YOUR TEACHER
SOUL PSYCHOLOGY® BEGAN WITH QUESTIONS I COULDN’T STOP ASKING.
I have been highly sensitive and intuitive for as long as I can remember.
As a child, I experienced things I didn’t have language for. I felt other people deeply. I saw and sensed things differently. And after trauma, I also knew what it was like to feel disconnected from my own body and experience.
Those questions eventually became part of my academic work.
I earned my Ph.D. in Transpersonal Psychology and spent years studying trauma, consciousness, yoga, meditation, spiritual traditions, human development, and the relationship between healing and our experience of ourselves.
But Soul Psychology® did not come from one book, one tradition, or one degree.
It developed through decades of study, lived experience, research, teaching, and working with survivors and highly sensitive people.
I created Soul Psychology 101 because sensitivity without understanding can be confusing.
You may have gifts and experiences that are meaningful to you while still needing discernment, boundaries, grounding, and the confidence to remain the authority in your own life.
That is what I want to teach you.

YOU DON’T NEED ME TO TELL YOU WHAT TO BELIEVE.
I WANT TO TEACH YOU HOW TO EXPLORE WHAT YOU EXPERIENCE WITHOUT GIVING YOUR AUTHORITY AWAY.
QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU JOIN?
SOUL PSYCHOLOGY 101 FAQ
IS SOUL PSYCHOLOGY® A RELIGIOUS COURSE?
No.
Soul Psychology® is not a religion and this course does not ask you to adopt a particular religious belief.
We explore consciousness, spirituality, intuition, energy, ancient wisdom, modern inquiry, and different ways human beings have tried to understand experiences that are not always easy to explain.
You are encouraged to bring your own beliefs, questions, experiences, and spiritual or religious background into the conversation without being asked to replace them with mine.
DO I NEED TO CONSIDER MYSELF PSYCHIC OR INTUITIVE?
No.
Some students may already identify as intuitive, empathic, highly sensitive, clairvoyant, clairsentient, or spiritually gifted. Others may simply be curious about experiences they have had or want to understand sensitivity and intuition more deeply.
You do not need to arrive with a label or prove that you have a particular gift.
WHAT IF I DON’T KNOW WHICH CLAIRS I HAVE?
That is part of what we will explore.
You will learn about different ways intuitive information may be experienced and begin observing how sensitivity and intuition show up for you.
The goal is not to force an ability or assign you an identity. It is to help you become more aware of your own experience and develop greater discernment around it.
WHAT IF I CAN’T ATTEND A CLASS LIVE?
Replays are included.
While attending live gives you the opportunity to participate, ask questions, and experience the class with Dr. Lisha and the group, you can use the replay when you are unable to attend a live session.
IS THIS THERAPY?
No.
Soul Psychology 101 is an educational and experiential course. It is not psychotherapy, mental health treatment, medical care, or a substitute for working with a licensed healthcare or mental health professional when that support is needed.
DO I HAVE TO BELIEVE IN ENERGY, CHAKRAS, THE CLAIRS, OR OTHER SPIRITUAL CONCEPTS?
No.
You are invited to explore these concepts, practices, traditions, and experiences with curiosity.
Soul Psychology® makes room for modern research, ancient wisdom, spiritual traditions, lived experience, and questions we may not yet know how to answer.
You are encouraged to think, question, discern, and decide what has meaning for you.
WILL THIS COURSE TEACH ME HOW TO PROTECT AND CLEAR MY ENERGY?
Yes.
The intensive includes practices for grounding, energetic boundaries, protection, clearing, and intentionally closing your energetic or spiritual practices.
The goal is not to make you afraid of energy. It is to help you feel more conscious and intentional about how you engage with your sensitivity.
IS THIS COURSE ONLY FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED TRAUMA?
No.
Trauma and survival are important parts of the Soul Psychology® framework, particularly because they can affect how we experience ourselves, sensitivity, fear, hypervigilance, and personal authority.
But Soul Psychology 101 is not exclusively a trauma course.
It is for people interested in understanding consciousness, sensitivity, intuition, energy, spiritual gifts, discernment, and their own human experience more deeply.
HOW LONG IS SOUL PSYCHOLOGY 101?
Soul Psychology 101 is a six-week live online intensive with Dr. Lisha Antiqua.
Classes are held live on Zoom and replays are included.
STILL CURIOUS?
GOOD.
SOUL PSYCHOLOGY® WAS BUILT AROUND QUESTIONS.
The YOU Mission
To know yourself is the ultimate gift you can offer the world.
At Your Own University, you are encouraged to bring awareness to your experiences, recognize what they have taught you, and use that knowledge to create a life and body of work that feels like your own.
Your experiences matter. What you have survived, studied, learned, practiced, and become holds value. Your next chapter might become a business, a book, a program, a certification, a community, a new career, or a mission only you know you are meant to pursue.
You do not need someone else to tell you what your purpose should be. You need to know yourself well enough to recognize it, understand where you are in building it, and get the right support for the stage you are in.
That is what Y.O.U. is here to help you do.
