Benefits of the Youniverse Membership
The aim of this membership program is to support the blossoming of your inner universe through a creative expression, so that you can move from any level of victimhood into self-sovereignty, align you inner YOUNIVERSE with your higher self’s guidance and find your true place in the world.
The goal of this program is that you come out at the end with a body of creative work you are proud of (whether you sell it or not), coupled with a new understanding of your capacity to create the life you desire.
We ignite the YOUNIVERSE within you through our four foundations of practice.
MEDITATION TRAINING
The first step to inner inquiry is meditation. Let go of the noise and the haste of the outside world, and go inwards. Become the observer of your thoughts. Become the witnesser of your emotions.
We give you a progressive program of guided meditations in the Membership to help you to develop and maintain a daily meditation practice, and reach a new level of self-fluency through the understanding your patterns of thought, feeling and behaviour.
TOOLS FOR INNER ALCHEMY
An alchemist transforms heavy metals (our suffering, coming from past unprocessed traumas, and ingrained patterns of negative thinking and negative future projecting) into gold (power to fuel our dreams).
One of the KEY alchemy tools in the membership are the monthly LIVE ZOOM Personal Development Workshops (such as Journalling, Inner Child Healing, etc.) where we use writing to re-wire our brains with new and empowering stories, transforming our pain into power and purpose.
A PATH TO SELF-LOVE
Your relationship with yourself is your number one relationship in your life. It will determine the quality of all your other relationships. So it’s so very important to clear any negativity towards ourselves on our path to blossoming and unfolding into our greatest version.
The 10 Day Online Course included in the Youniverse membership, ‘Self Love 101’ will help you build and maintain a strong foundation of self love for the house of your soul.
CREATIVE PRACTICE
Our fourth pillar in our Self Realisation Process is CREATIVITY. I want you to create something amazing during your time in this program. Whether that is a group of paintings or drawings, a book of poetry, a novel, an album of songs or a tapestry, that’s up to you. You choose what creative skill you want to pull out of your inner
Each month for 12 months there will be a one word theme, and you will receive prompts through weekly emails to develop your work based around this theme. Each month we will also have a LIVE Creativity Session on Zoom where we create work together and then share it.

Get the tools to clear Anxiety and Depression
The Youniverse Membership and will help you to overcome debilitating things like depression and anxiety (often stemming from suppressing your true self), opening to the Youniverse within you and sharing that with the world.
When you are able to make regular contact your soul / spirit, and you express yourself from this place, depression and anxiety slowly start to become a distant memory.
But that doesn’t mean that there is not also some embedded traumas that may need to be cleared from our past – upbringing, family, and our ancestors. There is a whole library of guided audio meditations addressing all of the parts of your inner Youniverse you need to look at in order to heal self-abandonment, including:
My Journey to Self Love and Self Expression
I fly around the world hosting yoga retreats and sharing music on the streets and the yoga studios of my favourite cities and far flung mountain villages.
But, building an adventurous life that fits me did not happen over night and has not been without its struggles.
Back in 2016, while living in the wet season in Bali, I suffered an intense month-long asthma attack, that meant I had to be regularly picked up by an ambulance at 7am and taken to be put on an oxygen machine in the nearest town.
Though the symptoms were very much physical ones, and I could barely get enough air into my lungs, I also felt that emotionally, I was sipping at life through a straw, getting only just enough of everything to survive.
The intense physical stress of barely getting enough air in my lungs gave me flashbacks to my past: growing up with a critical mother (thought she’s not anymore as she has gotten used to my rebellious ways!), being bullied multiple times in school and then, losing one of my greatest supporters, my older brother, in my mid twenties.
***************************************************
I finally understood that these painful past experiences of huge fear and stress (particularly in relationships), had meant that my mode of existance was one of survival.
I expected very little from others and in my romantic entanglements. I was just happy to receive a few crumbs of affection in fleeting affairs that went nowhere.
As soon as I recovered from my chronic asthma enough to breathe freely again, I booked a ticket to Italy.
I made a promise to untangle and unravel all my inner stories of unworthiness that were still playing in the background of my life, so that I could write a new story for myself.
This was the beginning of my inner revolution which took up the next few years, and the start of the self work that I called the YOUNIVERSE.
I took on my new spiritual name of Akasha Love to remind me to always make space for love, and I started to express myself much more. I created Youniverse paintings, Youniverse Calendars, and then an album of songs called.. yes, The Youniverse!
One of the most popular songs on the album is called The Unravelling. I spent a few years unravelling all my stories of lack and unworthiness, seeing the reasons the stories were planted in me, and seeing that I could also uproot them to grow a new story of me.
I became a Mindfulness Teacher, and led meditation and yoga retreats in Thailand, Bali and Australia. I started recording audio meditations for the Insight Timer app which thousands of people listened to. I started to see myself with much more compassion.
From the hundreds of review I received on my meditations, I realised that many others also needed help to forgive themselves, release their past and grow a new story.
And then I took my self expression experiments global when I went on my busking tour of the Europe in 2022. I faced my unworthiness fears full-on and received so much love from so many people. And I also learnt that rejection, or being ignored, is also OK. It doesn’t = death!
As a huge bonus I got into a new loving relationship that feels healthy, stable and reciprocal.

I hope that whatever stage in your life you are at now, that this Youniverse community gives you – as well as the support of like minded others – the tools you need to explore your inner universe, unravel any stories that need unravelling, and write an empowering script for your future.
Sometimes when we become a butterfly, we still don’t know to use our wings so we need a little help to learn to fly.

Testimonials
Marianne
Radical Self Love Retreat,
Bali, 2019
Michelle is a lovely being and an amazing facilitator who is so clearly living and growing in self-love and who is also deeply drawn to helping others to dive deeper into themselves and deeper into their own self-loving journeys…. I’d highly recommend attending.
Jenny
Radical Self Love Retreat,
Bali, 2019
Michelle’s Radical Self Love retreat in Bali (August 2019) was perfectly timed. The retreat gave me the opportunity to reset and begin the rest of my life.
Commencing the day with meditation is amazing. So calming. Let everything go and start each day fresh. Follow up meditation with yoga to get your mind and body feeling strong and refreshed. Complete focus on yourself.
Steven
Radical Self Love Retreat,
Bali 2019
As a person with disability, Michell went out of her way to ensure I was supported and totally included in activities in the retreat and at the beach house. The only problem I had with the retreat was that it was not long enough, and I had to come back to work. I can highly recommend going on a retreat with Michelle, and would happily go again.”
Kim
Radical Self Love Retreat,
Bali, 2019
I felt a strong bond develop as the retreat progressed, within the group, that enabled us all to relax more, to open up as a group on emotional and personal, even in a sense spiritual, levels.

Encouraged the sharing of experience. Meditation sessions were very relaxing.

Michelle has an incredible story to tell and uses her personal experience really effectively. I could have heard more about her insights.
Michelle was the key factor. Enjoyed structure of the course.
