Selfistry
Feeling like something is still missing, or not quite settled in you?
Selfistry might be the guidance you’ve been looking for.
Maybe you’ve tried it all: yoga and cleanses, medicine journeys and IFS therapy, meditation and selfless service. Maybe you’re just starting your personal journey after realizing that climbing the corporate ladder or raising a family didn’t give you the fulfillment you now crave.
Wherever you’re at, Selfistry is here to support your next steps towards authentic, grounded, creative, integrative living. We take a unique approach to self-discovery, personal development, and spiritual exploration.
Deep scientifically valid and philosophically sound spirituality—without the dogma.
Self-help practices—without the false promise of ten easy steps or a conflated sense of self.
Transformational techniques—without rigid rules or hype.
Through the Selfistry learning sanctuary, slow living gatherings, special events, and always-available 1-on-1 guidance, you’ll explore your self and your life through multiple lenses and avenues.
Here’s the promise: Selfistry provides a sanctuary, a fellowship, and a framework for understanding your present state of being so that you can reorient and step into expressing yourself authentically and living the life that aligns with your deepest knowing.
There’s no secret shortcut to the Artistry we engage in here. No quick fix. No ten easy steps. If you’re seeking expansion and evolution in your life, you have to start with the foundational work first. What is your belief system or worldview? How do you know if it’s yours? How do you know if it’s true? How do you make time to investigate and inquire?
We can help you avoid some of the detours and pitfalls of engaging in a practice that ultimately does more harm than good, studying with a teacher that is not aligned with your core values, or following the crowd because it’s too much trouble to go against the current.
Selfistry was born from Sarah enacting timeless practices, contemplating the collective knowledge of many spiritual lineages, and sourcing the guidance of teachers who walked this road before her.
Slow Spirituality is the sanctuary Sarah has prepared for you to take on the slow and steady process of personal development in a world that is especially unpredictable. Western culture is more addicted to hustle culture than it is to incorporating rest and stillness in service to wisdom. The pace of life is accelerating rapidly, as the context of climate emergency, AI proliferation, and economic and political collapse heighten the urgency for living an aligned life.
The disconnection from our essential selves and the living world leaves us not only at risk of making bad choices for future generations, but also missing out on enjoying the life we are presently living.
Sarah brings her experience as a mystic monastic—and her years of experience as a trained educator/facilitator—to people who are ready to expand their capacity to manage the complexity of their lives, both internal and external. Her objective is not to provide you answers, but rather to create the conditions for your answers to find you.
Slow Spirituality begins with an understanding that there’s nothing wrong with you. You’re not broken or in need of fixing. Through understanding the context of this time in history and the religious, psychological, and cultural influences thrust upon you, you can take a deep exhale and relax.
From here, Selfistry will offer you a map to organize your learning. In one realm, you will inquire into the nature of the self. In another, the nature of the unknown and unknowable. And in a third, the depth and expanse of consciousness itself.
These realms serve merely as guideposts for you to engage in the unique artistry of your life. You will find your way to claiming your worldview, leaving you with confidence, clarity, and compassion as you navigate the day-to-day wonder of being human.
We support you in sourcing the tools and techniques that are adaptive to your particular life story and makeup, helping you step onto your unique path of transformation with ease.
Since 2020, our connection to one another has become more amplified and more fraught. The importance of engaging in the right kind of inner work to inform the best kind of outer work is more important now than ever.
In a Slow Spirituality sanctuary, you’ll explore the three realms of the Selfistry framework so that you can confidently understand where and why you feel stuck, see a clear path of change before you, and step into realizing your emerging potential, ensuring a more fulfilling life for yourself and those around you.
Selfistry has helped men and women of all ages, including stay-at-home moms, army veterans, adventurous millennials, conscious baby boomers, solopreneurs, corporate executives, and wellness enthusiasts alike.
More than anything, we believe personal fulfillment and deep self-knowledge are not only essential to personal happiness but also integral to having a meaningful and lasting impact in the world. Thus, we confidently help generate personal transformation on your terms and at your pace.
No matter your age, your religion, your family background, or your culture, you deserve a life that you love.
So, if you have the perfect partner or the corner office, but you’re still feeling there’s more to who you are and what you want to bring to the world, Selfistry could be for you.
If you’re entering a new season of life and feel ready to tend to yourself but are uncertain where to begin, Selfistry could be for you.
If you’ve been to therapy, read tons of self-help books, and tried a number of spiritual practices and still don’t feel like your questions have adequate answers, Selfistry could be for you.
Whatever your background, Selfistry is here to offer lifestyle practices, gentle guidance, and practical tools to help you live your one beautiful and precious life to the fullest.

Selfistry: A Guide to Embodying Timeless Spiritual Wisdom
Studies estimate nearly 25% of the world’s population does not ascribe to any religion and roughly 25% of people in the US consider themselves “spiritual but not religious.” Many of these people are searching for a life of integrity amid an increasingly polarized global landscape filled with religious extremism, political turmoil, and environmental uncertainty. Disillusioned but seeking to contribute to the well-being of the planet, many are finding guidance in emergent integrative systems that develop all aspects of the modern human: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and social. “Selfistry” is one of those systems and this book is a guide to its unique and simple approach.
Selfistry is an innovative and elegant system for helping you discover the truth of who you are and why you’re here. Every seeker needs guidance. The trinity of Selfistry’s three realms is a perfect map and method for these times and Sarah is a trustworthy guide for any serious seeker.
