Beyond Direct Lineage

Other Philosophical & Esoteric Influences

ATMA Moves is also informed by a wider field of philosophical, esoteric, and healing study. These streams do not function as direct lineage in the same way as the Pranic Healing current, but as complementary bodies of inquiry that continue to shape the work’s understanding of consciousness, subtle anatomy, embodiment, transformation, devotion, and service.

ATMA Moves emerges from the convergence of lineages, carrying timeless principles into forms of practice suited to the needs of this age.
