Aligned & Ascending™
Live Aligned. Ascend Whole.
Our Clients
At Aligned & Ascending™, we walk with adults in midlife who are navigating thresholds. These may be moments of transition, grief, burnout, or awakening where the old ways of pushing through no longer feel sustainable. Our clients are professionals, seekers, and purpose-driven adults who long for more than quick fixes. They are ready for grounded, soul-centered healing that brings mind, body, and spirit back into conversation.
The Opportunity
Beneath the surface of busyness and responsibility often lies a sense of disconnection from one’s truth. Many arrive carrying unprocessed grief in the body, looping self-criticism in the mind, or longing for deeper meaning in the spirit. What they seek is not another form of performance, but a way to realign with clarity, presence, and wholeness. At Aligned & Ascending™, our signature method, Tri-Field Integration™, was created to guide this return. We embody a conscious living practice that helps men and women reclaim meaning, connection, and inner coherence so they can live aligned and whole.
Live Aligned. Ascend Whole.
Living aligned means making choices and moving through each day in a way that feels true to who you are. Ascending whole is about growing without leaving parts of yourself behind. Transforming past challenges into strength and carrying forward a clearer, more grounded sense of self.

Our Practice

Vision
We help purpose-driven adults in midlife realign mind, body, and spirit so they can live aligned and ascend whole.
Mission
Through Tri-Field Integration™, we guide adults through life’s thresholds with grounded, trauma-informed practices that restore meaning, connection, and inner coherence.
Our Approach
At Aligned & Ascending™, we offer a grounded journey home to yourself especially for those navigating midlife thresholds, grief, reinvention, or spiritual emergence. Our signature method, Tri-Field Integration™, brings together three fields of healing: Mind, where evidence-based practices like CBT, IFS, and SFBT help you reframe limiting narratives and reconnect with an empowered sense of self; Body, where breathwork, somatic awareness, and Reiki guide you to release what the mind cannot and regulate the nervous system with safety and presence; and Spirit, where visualization, contemplative practices, and inner dialogue open pathways to meaning, intuition, and resonance.
Each session weaves these three layers into one experience by anchoring thoughts, dropping into the body, and listening for deeper energetic patterns. This creates a full-spectrum process of sustainable transformation. Healing is not linear; it is layered, relational, and rhythmic, just like life.
About – Aligned & Ascending™
Why Aligned & Ascending™ Exists
Midlife isn’t a crisis. It’s a threshold. At Aligned & Ascending™, we guide adults through the crossroads of transition, grief, burnout, and awakening. Our vision is to help you move beyond survival into a life of clarity, embodiment, and purpose.
The Method
At the heart of this work is Tri-Field Integration™, a 10-session guided journey that bridges three essential fields of growth and transformation:
-
Mind – exploring belief, identity, and meaning-making
-
Body – reconnecting to breath, regulation, and somatic wisdom
-
Spirit – honoring intuition, values, and resonance
This integrative process is designed to help you return to wholeness at your own pace, supported by practices that are trauma-informed, compassionate, and deeply human.
The Philosophy
Integration is not linear. It is layered, relational, and rhythmic. Just like life. Your story is not your prison. It is your portal.

About
Meet Samuel
I’m Samuel Washington, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Breathwork Facilitator, and Reiki Master Practitioner.
My work blends decades of professional experience with a holistic approach to integration. I’ve seen how identity shifts in midlife can shake the ground beneath us and I’ve also seen how these thresholds hold the power to awaken us
.
I created Aligned & Ascending™ to offer a path that is both grounded and soulful. A space where psychology, breathwork, and energy practices come together as companions in your journey of integration.
Tri-Field Integration™ – The Signature Journey
A Pathway of Realignment and Wholeness
Midlife is not the end of your story. It is the beginning of a new chapter. One that calls you back to clarity, embodiment, and purpose.
Tri-Field Integration™ is a guided 10-session journey designed to bring the mind, body, and spirit into conversation. When these three fields work together, transformation becomes natural, sustainable, and deeply human.
The Three Fields of Integration
Mind
Explore the stories and patterns that shape your identity. Using approaches like CBT, IFS, and narrative reframing, you’ll begin to shift limiting beliefs and open space for clarity and empowerment.
Body
The body holds what the mind forgets. Through breathwork, somatic awareness, and nervous system regulation, you’ll learn to release held patterns and reconnect with your innate vitality.
Spirit
Beyond thought and sensation lies resonance. The quiet wisdom that orients us to meaning. Through energy practices, ritual, and reflection, you’ll rediscover connection to your deeper self and to life’s unfolding.
