Exploring Life & Business with Anthony Sosa of Insource

Today we’d like to introduce you to Anthony Sosa.

Hi Anthony, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
Born and raised in Texas, while studying astrophysics and the neuroscience of meditation at university of Texas Tech, Anthony experienced one his greatest loss – the sudden death of his mother.

This sudden loss when I was 19 years of age is what drew me to the path of healing during his 1st year at university. This direct encounter with the tremendous pain and suffering in life was the pivotal shattering point for transforming his life.

After the traumatic sudden death of my mother when I was 19, I was shattered, numb, lost, and heart gapingly broken. I was also devastatingly free to become my authentic self. It took me many years to validate that I needed healing because I couldn’t feel safe to create any meaningful relationships or even trust the universe.

I sought to know how all life is connected and begin to change my life by dedicating myself to learning and the acquisition of knowledge. I responded by traveling the world, dedicated myself to finishing my college degree for my mother by devoting my life to studying science, specifically the science physics as my childlike curiosity aligned with the affinity to understand our relationship to the stars and the cosmos.

I traveled the world to live Australia during my study abroad that culturally shifted who I was and had an epiphany around changing my study from engineering to physics. So I began studying astrophysics because it connected more deeply with my innocent curiosity to learn my place in the universe and to make sense of the uncertainty of life. After several years, I became severely dissatisfied with limitations and imbalances from a way of living that was extremely intellectual through western academia and I started seeking complimentary forms of holistic living to counteract the deep loneliness and disconnection he felt from himself and others.

My seeking took me taking trips into the wilderness where I backpacked with my godfather in Yosemite National park. I then started my formal healing journey by going counseling to learn to feel emotions, I stretched myself to learn psychology, mythology, philosophy, neuroscience, and religions around the world even connecting more authentically to Christianity through the lens of universal love and service.

I graduated in 2017 with a physics degree in a concentration in astrophysics and minors in mathematics and psychology while completing my yoga teacher training certification and participating in research of the neuroscience of mindfulness meditation.

My insatiable curiosity to learn drove me to experiential healing in the from meditation & mindfulness from eastern philosophy where began my life practice of Yoga with the support of incredible teachers. I dedicated over 5 years of my life to embody the path of Yoga as a student, practitioner and teacher. This is where I was also traveling internationally and starting seeking mystical experiences through plant medicine which utterly transformed and re-wired who I was. As I was teaching yoga for to embody a holistic life, started veganism for the next 7 years, I continued to traveled the world teaching yoga and have psychedelic healing experiences that changed the foundations of self to love as I continued to study and learn to be embodied.

In 2019, I decided to I then moved to the beautiful state of Colorado to feel closer to the nature and to complete my masters degree from Naropa in Transpersonal Counseling, My first year a teacher from Naropa enthusiastically encouraged me to look into the work of Lisa Wimberger, the founder and creator of Neurosculpting. I followed this path by taking the Neurosculpting courses and during my time at Naropa while completing my master’s during the midst of pandemic I became certified as a Neurosculpting facilitator.

Naropa provided an environment for me to apply my embodied work into the relational and emotional realm to work towards my aspiration of being more whole and balanced so I could learn to express my mind through my heart. I had no intention of. becoming a counselor or psychotherapist when I chose Naropa’s master’s program, in a way it chose me. Neurosculpting integrated my love of science with meditation as a foundation for nervous system healing and creativity. Later, the Neurosculpting institute would be the place I would complete my clinical internship and began my private practice business.

When I graduated in 2022, I also completed my certification as a SOMA Breathwork teacher, and instantly began my private practice Insource a few days after graduated. I then went on to become a Gene Keys Guide, start ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) as I continued to build business as private practice for psychotherapy, mental health and becoming a creator of mentor Neurosculpting facilitator from the Neurosculpting Institute (NSI).

Now, I serve my life’s work as a professional psychotherapist at the NSI while running my own business while offering breathwork and yoga classes, creating a synthesis of meditations such as Neurosculpting meditations for the Gene Keys and teaching at retreats, This field of relational healing is where Anthony is graciously able to serve by creatively integrating applied embodied wisdom of practical and spiritual tools of awareness directly through relationships.

In my free time, I love to explore my physical body through strength training, calisthenics and handstands, dancing Brazilian Zouk, and hiking in the beautiful Rocky Mountains to maintain a healthy, balanced, and simple life.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The sudden death of my mother when I was 19 years old. Struggles with loneliness, depression, and emotional numbness. Challenges with listening to myself or cultural narratives as expectations from my family.

I want your readers to know that healing and what comes after healing which is purpose through creative collaborative growth and service is always possible no matter what you’ve been through, where you’ve come from, or what you’re experiencing.
