A different perspective on human development, leadership, stillness and life.
Anandi is an internationally bestselling author and the originator of peiec®. Her working life spans more than thirty years: music, design, paramedicine, senior inspector with a government health and safety regulator, national health and safety leadership, consulting, clinical practice and her own businesses.
Her own search for profound stillness, and her discovery that extraordinary experiences did not necessarily become part of everyday life, led her to question much of what she had previously understood about development.
In 2015, working in clinic and then while teaching, techniques began arriving that she had neither learned nor previously encountered. These became the beginnings of peiec®, an original body of work she continues to teach today.
Her work challenges the assumption that the depth of our experiences or the extent of our knowledge necessarily reflects the depth of our development.
The person doing the perceiving can change.
And as that person changes, so can what becomes available.
Deeper Than You Know
You’ve had the experiences. You understand the teachings. But what has genuinely changed?
Anandi examines why profound experiences don’t always become lasting changes in everyday life, why familiarity doesn’t necessarily mean we’ve reached the limits of development, and how our present perception shapes what we believe is possible.
For those who have explored extensively but still sense there’s more, this book opens a different conversation.

“If you think there is stillness, there is more stillness. If you think you have depth, there is more depth. The beauty of the moment gets richer, the deeper you go.”
Anandi Sano
To those who stayed long enough for the pathway to reveal itself.
“I have found myself saying that phrase ‘I never knew it was possible to experience life like this.’ often on this path of development. And that phrase barely touches the sides of what it is to be perceiving more of life without continually losing myself in it. The acceptance I have for self grows every day and so too does my curiosity for unmet potentials. What you offer through peiec is not a short course learning; it’s lifelong, the unfolding and deepening never ends.”

“I am such an immensely different person to who arrived on the first day. Why do I stay? For so long? Because life continues, therefore I want this expansive experience to always be a part of my life. It’s like I carry a rainbow with me everywhere I go. I feel and see much more than I ever have, but that is also a softer experience nowadays. I move with life instead of battling it.”

With gratitude to the students whose years of participation have helped us understand what this work can become. Everyone’s experience is different, and no particular result is promised.
What began more than a decade ago has become something far greater than we imagined.
A body of work, a pathway of development, and a community of people who have helped us understand what is possible.
This is a little of what we’ve been exploring along the way.

How far can we continue to develop?
Most development stops at what we know and what we have experienced. What else might still be capable of developing?
- Could perception become more refined?
- Could the body become more available?
- Could stillness deepen?
- Could the way we experience ourselves, other people and ordinary life continue to change?
Anandi has observed these possibilities through her own development and through students who have continued with peiec® for many years.

We Had to Watch the Pathway Reveal Itself
What years of working with the same students taught us about development, change, and what peiec® was becoming. I regularly thank the students who have stayed with us for many years. Not simply because they stayed, but because their staying allowed us to see something...
Why We Don’t Equate Force With Effectiveness
There is an understandable assumption in many forms of physical work that the more significant the problem, the more substantial the intervention needs to be. If something has been painful for years, deeply restricted or difficult to change, it can seem logical that...
The Place You Feel Pain Is Not Always the Only Place to Work
When something hurts, our attention naturally goes to the place where the pain is felt. A painful knee becomes a knee problem. A restricted neck draws attention to the neck. If the lower back hurts, it seems logical that this is where treatment should be directed....
