TOSA More Than a Breathwork Training

Keli Carpenter, the founder of The Other Side of Average (TOSA)—Therapy for the Soul and the creator of the TOSA Method. She was introduced to transcendent meditation (TM®) at the age of six and brings many decades of experience in mind, body, and consciousness-based practices. Keli is a Certified Transcendent Meditation Instructor, Conscious Connected Breathwork Facilitator and Trainer, and a Conscious Relationship, Uncoupling, and Parenting Coach. She has studied with Dr. Gabor Maté and spoken alongside leaders in the field such as Deepak Chopra and Peter Levine. Having trained and mentored hundreds of facilitators and led international retreats and certification programs, Keli is devoted to guiding individuals into deep somatic healing, embodied awakening, and the mastery of safe, conscious space-holding. Her work is rooted in the understanding that true transformation arises not from fixing or changing oneself, but from learning how to meet, integrate, and awaken through all that we are. The way through is through.

TOSA—Therapy for the Soul is a deeply integrative and trauma-informed school of breathwork, somatic healing, and conscious facilitation, devoted to personal awakening and the development of skilled, embodied practitioners. Rooted in conscious connected breathwork, somatic inquiry, mantra meditation, and embodied presence, our trainings guide students beyond technique into direct experience—where healing, integration, and self-realization unfold simultaneously.

Our multi-level training pathway supports both profound personal transformation and professional mastery. Beginning with a strong foundation in self-healing (Level One), students learn to safely meet and integrate their own emotional patterns, trauma, and conditioning before stepping into supporting others. From there, the training expands into facilitator certification (Level Two), in-person trauma release practicum (Level Three), and advanced Somatic Inquiry and mentorship (Level Four)—all developing the capacity to hold safe, ethical, and deeply attuned space for others.

Blending embodied, psychotherapeutic, somatic trauma release techniques and consciousness-based approaches, TOSA emphasizes that true facilitation arises from lived experience, integrity, and presence. This is more than a breathwork training—it is a comprehensive path of awakening, integration, and leadership, supporting individuals to embody their innate wholeness while guiding others to do the same.
