For years, I lived a life that looked right on paper, but felt like a lie in my soul. I was acting as if I were successful and fine, while secretly suffocating inside the prison of my own mind. I was a prisoner to the "Monday Manager," that relentless internal voice of anxiety and judgment that never let me simply be.
How I Escaped the Prison of My Mind is the unfiltered record of my 18-inch journey from that mental cage to the freedom of the heart.
The Architecture of the Prison: Identifying the "acting as-if" patterns that keep us stuck in a life that isn't ours.
Modern Alchemy: How I stopped fighting technology and started using AI and Social Media as mirrors to dismantle my deepest fears.
The Somatic Reclamation: How I used somatic practices and movement like yoga to bypass the analytical mind, which allowed me to access the deep emotional release required to purge a lifetime of stored trauma.
Entering the Container: A practical guide to finding the silent, peaceful space where you remember who you actually are.
This isn't just a memoir; it’s the visual and practical blueprint you’ve been looking for. It is proof that you don't have to leave the world to find your soul. You just have to realize that the cage was never locked, and you already have the tools to walk out.
