You’ve touched something real. It didn’t stay.
peiec® works through the body, energy, space, perception and stillness, so that what you touch can become how you live. It is for people who have explored a great deal and sense there is more.
Anandi Sano is the originator of peiec® and an internationally bestselling author. Before that came thirty years as a paramedic, a senior inspector with a government health and safety regulator and a national health and safety leader. peiec® came through her own experience, and she is the person who has walked it furthest.
Does this sound like you?
- You function well, and underneath there is still stress or anxiety that never quite leaves.
- Your body is holding more than it should: stiffness, restriction, pain you have learned to live around.
- You wonder what your body and your life will feel like in ten or twenty years.
- You already do yoga, stretching, the gym, meditation. They help, and you still feel stuck, as if you have hit a wall.
If you recognise yourself in any of this, this is for you.
The person doing the perceiving can change.
And as that person changes, so can what becomes available.
More than energetic work. Everything she has learned, taught gently.
Anandi doesn’t only teach energy and stillness. Over many years she has gathered and shared everything she has learned, and all of it is gentle.
The body
Releasing it, gently and in different ways: tension, restriction, and how the body and the face can structurally collapse.
Energy
Working with the energy of the body, with touch and without it.
The spatial field
What becomes apparent as distance, positioning and orientation change.
Perception and stillness
Learning to observe before interpreting, and a stillness that can keep deepening.
Health and vitality
Food, vitality and the wider health of the whole system.
Capacity over time
The possibility of more movement, wellness and stillness in the years ahead.
Each part affects the whole system and the way the body responds. As one area releases, others begin to open too. It is a gentle unfolding, and it is part of the pathway.
Stillness is what sits underneath all of it. When the system isn’t in a constant battle, or closed down because one part is out of balance, more change can occur.
You will still look after your body, with the massage, the movement and the care you already give it. This works alongside that, and it is there for you as you open, expand and change. It is simply about how to live deeply, and how to live well.
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.

Begin with the book, learn at your own pace, or enter the live online pathway.
The book
Why profound experiences don’t always become lasting change, and what might still be available. Includes the free Your Map workbook.
The Foundation
Learn the foundational techniques of peiec® online, in your own time, and apply them to your own body and energy. $697 AUD.
The First Gate
The online entry into the peiec® pathway: filmed teaching with Anandi, live weekly sessions on Zoom, practice and receiving with other students, and a private community. About 3 to 5 hours a week, with no weekly homework. It begins with a conversation with Krystle, with no pressure and nothing to pay on that call.
For those who wish to continue beyond The First Gate, further teaching and opportunities for development are available through The Academy.
“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.
“It’s not abstract concepts or airy-fairy. It’s so grounded.”
Suzanne · three and a half years with peiec®
“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.”
Liz S · Australia
“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.”
Jen C · Australia
In a study of twenty women who have worked with peiec® for between two and five or more years, most of them in their forties and fifties, every one reported improvement overall. These are their own retrospective reports, with no control group, and not a guarantee of what anyone else will experience.
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.
Anandi & Krystle
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?
- Could more open up as the years go on, not less?
- Could the years ahead hold more capacity, movement, wellness and stillness?
Anandi has observed these possibilities through her own development and through students who have continued with peiec® for many years.
Before you begin.
Where do I start?
Most people start with the book. If you already know you want to learn, The Foundation is self-paced online coursework, and The First Gate is the eight-month live online pathway, which begins with a conversation with Krystle.
What if I can’t feel anything yet?
Then you begin where you are. Some beginning awareness of subtle sensation helps, and the short exercise in Chapter 13 of Deeper Than You Know is a simple way to find out. Please don’t compare your beginning with what you might see others doing after years of development.
Do I have to believe anything?
No. peiec® isn’t tied to any religion, belief system or tradition, and it doesn’t ask you to believe anything. It is simply about how to live deeply and live well. You work with your own direct experience: you practise, notice and question.
How much time does it take?
The First Gate asks for around 3 to 5 hours a week for practice, review and the live sessions, with no weekly homework. The Foundation is self-paced, with three months of access.
Do I need to be good with computers?
You need to be comfortable using a computer. The Foundation is online coursework, and The First Gate’s live sessions run on Zoom, with a private community app kept away from social media.
Perspectives on development, stillness and the work.
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....
