Dr Sun Announces the Birth of a New Paradigm in Trauma Therapy with Life in the Bliss Lane

Rewriting the Rules of Healing

-- Life in the Bliss Lane isn’t just a brand—it’s a revolution. Founded by Reverend Dr. Sunayana Shivangi Pandé—award-winning metaphysician, trauma therapist, and consciousness pioneer—this global sanctuary for transformation is home to a radical reimagining of wellness itself. At the heart of this movement lies Kappal Otti, the first mind-body-spirit trauma therapy framework formally introduced into the field of psychology, a paradigm that fuses ancient breath rituals, nondual philosophy, neuroscience, and inclusive metaphysics.

Dr. Pandé, affectionately known as Dr. Sun, has created more than a coaching brand—she’s architected a transdimensional healing ecosystem. A place where autistic non-speakers are not labeled as disordered but recognized as quantum communicators. A place where trauma isn’t something to “get over,” but a crucible of sacred initiation. A place where queer, trans, and nonbinary people aren’t included as an afterthought—they are centered as spiritual architects of a new age.

Introducing Kappal Otti: A Breakthrough in Trauma Therapy

Named after the Tamil phrase for “steering the ship,” Kappal Otti is Dr. Sun’s original trauma healing modality—developed through decades of lived experience, scholarship, and clinical application. It is the first therapeutic framework to treat trauma as an interdimensional fracture, using pranayama, nervous system retraining, and somatic memory reconciliation not only to regulate physiology but to restore soul-coherence.

Unlike somatic experiencing or CBT, Kappal Otti does not pathologize the symptoms of survival. Instead, it treats the body as an intelligent temple reacting to spiritual displacement. It is neurodivergent-affirming, nonbinary in approach, and anchored in quantum compassion. Every inhale is a retrieval. Every exhale, a ritual of release.

This is not just trauma therapy. This is soul cartography.

Dr. Sun’s book “Sail Beyond Trauma” about this new paradigm is currently being published by a subsidiary of Hay House Publishing, and due out before the end of this year.

Queering the Cosmos: A Gender Framework Beyond the Binary

Dr. Sun’s spiritual lineage and her neuroqueer identity uniquely position her to challenge the colonial binaries of both Western psychology and organized religion. Drawing upon the archetype of Ardhanarishwara—the Divine Androgyne in Hindu cosmology—she offers an entirely new gender framework rooted in ancient wisdom and transdimensional science.

At the Bliss Institute & Transdimensional Consciousness Hermitage (B.I.T.C.H.), gender is not a social construct alone—it is a spiritual frequency, and transitioning is honored as a metaphysical rite. The LGBTQIA+ community, especially transgender and nonbinary individuals, are welcomed not just as clients—but as cosmic midwives of planetary healing.

This framework deprograms the gender binary and unhooks it from hormones, trauma, and colonial scripts, inviting people to come home to their most sacred shape.

Reframing Neurodivergence: From Pathology to Portal

As a therapist, autism mom, and TBI warrior herself, Dr. Sun offers one of the most radically compassionate frameworks for neurodivergence in the field today. She argues that autistic individuals—especially nonspeakers and stimmers—are not broken, but tuned to frequencies that most cannot perceive.

Her work draws connections between gamma wave synchronization, nonlocal consciousness, and stimming as a spiritual practice, and her books reframe autism as an evolutionary adaptation rather than a disorder.

In the Life in the Bliss Lane app and programs, autistic individuals are treated as channelers, not glitches—people capable of receiving downloads from the Akashic field and expressing them through unconventional modalities.

The Bliss Institute: B.I.T.C.H. as Sacred Infrastructure

The Bliss Institute & Transdimensional Consciousness Hermitage, lovingly acronymed B.I.T.C.H., is not a joke. It’s a temple. A trauma-informed, queer-affirming, spiritually sovereign digital and in-person sanctuary.

With sacred sigils, empowerment ceremonies, downloadable rituals, inclusive rites of passage, and gender-divine theology, the institute offers more than support—it offers belonging.

Here, healing is not clinical. It is cosmic, communal, and curated. Participants engage in group activations, somatic rituals, identity reclamation ceremonies, and portal-based consciousness work. Every offering is a woven braid of psychology, metaphysics, and activism.

A Library of Liberation: Nearly 100 Books and a Global App

Dr. Sun has authored over 90 published books on metaphysics, trauma recovery, queer consciousness, autism, breathwork, nonduality, and neurodivergent learning. These include:

  • Change the Thought, Change the Plot
  • You Are Infinite!
  • Wholeness Through Illness
  • Reimagining Autism
  • The Pranayama Prescription
  • The Pineal Portal
  • Hijacked by Hormones
  • Stop Being Your Own Worst Enemy
  • Level Up With Gratitude

Each book is designed to be both a mirror and a ladder—a mirror for those who have never seen themselves reflected in healing spaces, and a ladder to access the next tier of consciousness.

Her Life in the Bliss Lane app delivers all this wisdom in one place: courses, breath rituals, autism parenting guides, gender expansion tools, and healing journeys for people navigating PTSD, sensory trauma, and identity dissonance.

A Personal Revolution, A Collective Awakening

Dr. Sun is not simply teaching theories. She embodies them.

A multiple cancer survivor, suicide survivor, disabled single mom, and child of Partition trauma, she has survived both biomedical assault and metaphysical exile. Her entire model of care was forged through her own return from the edge—a phoenix alchemist who turned illness into oracle, rejection into redirection, and oppression into initiation.

Through her work, people reclaim not only their bodies but their timelines. They remember they are not broken—they are becoming.

Award-Winning Recognition for a Historic Achievement

In 2025, Dr. Sun’s pioneering work was honored with the Best Mind-Body-Spirit Coaching Program in the US by the Evergreen Awards. This recognition affirms what her clients have always known.

About Dr. Sun and Life in the Bliss Lane

This is not just coaching. This is a paradigm shift in the history of psychology. This is where science, spirit, and sovereignty finally converge. Dr. Sunayana Shivangi Pandé is a metaphysical minister, trauma therapist, and author of over 90 books. She holds advanced degrees in neuroscience, metaphysics, psychology, and theology, and is the founder of Life in the Bliss Lane, a transformational coaching and publishing platform integrating neurodivergence, queer theology, and ancient healing arts. She is the creator of Kappal Otti, the first fully integrative mind-body-spirit trauma therapy model introduced into psychology.

Her mission: to help you rewire the story of your suffering into the script of your sovereignty.
