Why Third I?

There is your past—the First I—all the experiences that have brought you to now.

There is the NOW—the Second I—what your life is requiring of you –both internally and externally. Your health, your day to day activities, your relationships, your work.

There is the future—the THIRD I – the reason you are here—to find the way forward in YOUR way—in a body, mind and soul that gives you the fluidity, awareness and skills to  integrate all the myriad feelings, desires, goals and uncertainties that will always be part of life. 

​We look forward to meeting you to talk more about our offerings and how we can create a customized program for you.



Third I Manifesto

The analytical psychologist, Carl Jung believed, the goal of life should be ‘Individuation’: the emergence of a distinct and integrated “self” through confrontation and mastery of both the outer world (society/environment) and the inner world of desire, thought and feeling.  Jung set out a 5 phase  path of individuation recognizing that to know oneself requires a hard and realistic look at the world around.

The  5 element theory which is the foundation of Chinese Medicine and wellness is a way of looking at the universe and its connection to our body. By understanding the natural laws of the universe we are then able to understand how they affect our body in time and space.

The path to individuation is a process that requires commitment, as well as the courage to recognize not only what is good, but also what one needs to work harder to perfect. The five element theory helps us get closer to our essential selves by helping us feel and recognize our relationship to the universe.

To begin, the Five element theory organizes all natural phenomena, including humans, into 5 groups - Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Each of these includes a season, geographical direction, internal organ, color, emotion, taste, sound, body tissue Rooted in the earth we develop from the earth - we flourish or struggle from this paradigm. 

To know oneself requires  the willingness and ability to both go deeply inside, as well as to cultivate a clear and concise relationship with the world outside ourselves.  point out obstacles so that they may be overcome on the way to finding a distinct and distinctive articulation of self.

​Living in harmony with the earth and seasons will allow our bodies and minds to flourish, so that we can find a distinct articulation of self,  and ultimately balance with the natural environment,  as well as our own inner nature.

The Offering 

Third I is a 6 week program.  Each phase of the program is carefully curated to unearth the blockages, habits and thoughts keeping you from understanding, articulating and manifesting your purpose and goals. Together, through this iterative process, in which one phase builds to the next,  we will discover your THIRD I.

Grounding 
Week one  starts  with hearing from you as to your vision/mission/goals for yourself so we may use that as a lens through which to structure and focus our work together.

This information along, with what we learned from our call will be integrated and become the foundation for  YOUR personalized  workbook which will guide us through the process.  Each week we will deliver the  questions and focus for the next phase to be completed  over the week.

• 1 hour weekly zoom session to review and discuss each phase. The next workbook installment will come a day later and be  based on your responses to the previous phase, in order to build on YOUR responses.  Each workbook is customized for the individual so we will need one day  to analyze and synthesize the information you have written in your workbook, as well as that uncovered in  the zoom conversation to use as the starting point for the next phase of discovery.   

•One week after final session, we will deliver a summary  of  what we have learned in order to provide you with  a written THIRD I Manifesto to use as you go forward with more confidence, and a deeper understanding of yourself. This can serve as a  reminder of how you got here….as well as a guide to which you can refer back in order to continue moving forward.

We will also include the meditation topics we have covered, your herbal protocol, any recommendations for how to pace your mind and body for ultimate integration and health.

We will also offer ongoing drop in sessions should you feel it would benefit you and those will be arranged on an ad hoc basis and can be something as simple as a one time check in, to arranging ongoing weekly conversations.

Welcome to your THIRD I….we are excited to start this journey with you!​


Phase 1 
The Unmasking
In phase 1 you will be meeting virtually with both Gailanne Grosso and Dr. Danielle Solomon.  Here we will begin the work of understanding what lies beneath the surface,  what is driving you, as well as what is holding you back and understand where your subconscious blocks lie.  

Phase 2

Confronting the Shadow
Shadow work is a deep dive into the  subconscious blocks we name in phase one, so that you are able to move them out of your way in order to keep moving ahead in your life.  The shadow is the psychological term for anything we can't see within ourselves;  that which lies just beyond our physical sight unless it is illuminated.  The work in this phase is essential to bringing to light areas we go to great lengths to keep in the dark but that may ultimately, with proper understanding, and acceptance become catalysts to our growth
Phase 3

Opening the Pathway 
The internal and external world . A deep dive into how you navigate both sides of the self…the side that is private, quiet and the side that wants and needs external approbation and engagement. Finding the balance between these two often contradictory subconscious drivers can  lead to greater confidence and help you claim  your real and desired place in the world.  

Phase 4 
The Path Forward 
Charting the path forward is not always easy.  Healing and self-realization is not a linear process.  Healing often takes place in a way that is difficult to chart, leaving us unsure if we are moving ahead, are stuck or even going backwards.

By understanding consciously connecting to  the dynamic healing process within our bodies and minds, we take the first step to identifying and charting  our path forward. 

Phase 5 
Inner Core Revealed 

Understanding and unearthing the powerful drivers which have brought us to where we are now is an enlightening experience.  
In the final phase of our program we work as a team to understand not only what you have discovered through working through your path to individuation but also help you claim its rewards. This phase celebrates the heart;  the opening of the emotions into a blossom of generosity and compassion for others—all grown from the strength you have found in yourself.
