Calling Promised Land Living Graduates
Deeper Still:
A Year of Embodied Formation in Christ
You’ve experienced breakthrough.
But something in you knows the journey isn’t finished yet.
Deeper Still is a selective, year-long formation journey for those ready to move beyond the intensive — and into deeper transformation.
Through spiritual practice, embodied awareness, and intentional community, you will learn to live anchored in Christ, grounded in your body, and aligned with your God-given essence.
We begin with regulation — but we stay long enough for embodied transformation.
WHY DEEPER STILL EXISTS
You’ve tasted real transformation — and yet you’ve noticed old patterns still show up when life gets loud again.
The pressure at work hasn’t slowed down.
The nervous system still fires.
And spiritual clarity can feel harder to access on a Tuesday afternoon than it did in the middle of a breakthrough moment.
That’s not failure. That’s the difference between state change and trait change.
State change helps you feel better
for a moment.
Trait change reshapes who you
become over time.
Deeper Still bridges that gap.
This is not more information. This is formation. This is Skill Building.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT?
Most programs teach tools alone. Deeper Still is designed to reshape patterns of being.
Through repeated practice over time, you will:
–Practice ways of being that set your internal thermostat to joy, peace, and love.
–Recognize and reset nervous system patterns so that presence becomes your baseline, not your best day
–Deepen attachment to Christ in real-time moments — not just reflective ones
–Develop embodied awareness that supports spiritual maturity from the inside out.
–Replace old survival habits with grounded presence that holds under pressure
–Develop depth in your Christian relationships by learning how to witness others "as is" then authentically communicate
the impact of that witness (skill building)
–Integrate faith, body, and identity into one coherent life. An extraordinary life that begins to feel like your new normal.
Your new nervous system set point.
Because transformation happens when
truth is practiced — not just understood– in community.

THE FORMATION JOURNEY
Over twelve months, we walk through a clear progression designed to move you from awareness to embodiment to a new way of being by building "fast track" skills–and don't we all need skills that don't require thought?
Safety → Awareness → Identity → Embodiment → Relationship → Essence
Each phase builds on the one before it — because transformation that lasts unfolds slowly and safely.
Arrival & Safety — Months 1–2
Before transformation happens, the nervous system must experience safety. This phase helps participants slow down, build trust within the cohort, notice survival patterns without judgment, and develop gentle body awareness alongside foundational micro-shift practices.
Spiritual formation focus: Resting in God’s presence rather than performing for it.
Trait seed: “I am safe enough to be honest.”
Awareness & Regulation — Months 3–4
Participants begin recognizing old stress responses, emotional patterns, and reactivity under pressure in real time. They practice nervous system regulation and embodied micro-shifts, learning to return to center quickly, process emotions and shift to Christ. This is where state change lives — but only as the doorway.
Spiritual formation focus: Learning to notice God in the moment, not just after the moment.
Trait seed: “I can return to peace and live in joy.”
Identity & Attachment — Months 5–6
As regulation increases, deeper identity work becomes possible. Participants explore who they became to survive versus who they were created to be, and learn new attachment patterns (that may need to be developed) with God, self, and others.
Spiritual formation focus: Secure attachment to Christ.
Trait seed: “I am anchored in who I truly am.”
Embodiment & Integration — Months 7–8
Truth becomes lived experience. Participants practice living from embodiment rather than effort (scarcity/self-protection), allowing truth to move from head to body, and using micro-shifts and embodied presence as lifestyle rhythms.
Spiritual formation focus: Walking with God through the body, not just the mind.
Trait seed: “My body and spirit are working together.”
Relational Transformation — Months 9–10
As internal patterns shift, relationships naturally change. Participants practice responding instead of reacting, staying present in difficult conversations, and holding boundaries without disconnection or anger.
Spiritual formation focus: Love expressed through embodied presence.
Trait seed: “I can remain present with others without losing myself.”
Living from Essence — Months 11–12
This final phase is about integration, not intensity. Participants move toward sustainable rhythms, quieter inner leadership, and living from alignment instead of striving. This type of presence is influential and joy filled.
Spiritual formation focus: Abiding instead of achieving.
Trait seed: “This is who I am now.”
This is formation that reaches the nervous system — not just belief systems.
How It Works
You’ve done the brave work of waking up.
Now it’s time to do the quiet work of rooting down.
This journey is about becoming rooted enough to rise —
grounded in Christ, embodied in practice, and steady in
everyday life.
You don’t need another mountaintop experience. You need to become intimate with home base.
(it's an internal space.)
You need a root system that can hold the life you’ve been called to.
A small, selective cohort experience designed
for depth, consistency, and safety.
This is not a drop-in experience.
It’s a shared commitment to practice and presence.
Twice-Monthly Live Coaching Calls
Two-hour live group sessions with short teaching, guided embodiment work, and spiritual integration. Experiential learning — not lecture-heavy.
Weekly Peer Practice Groups
Small peer circles for practice, accountability, and shared growth. Safe space to apply tools together and build relational depth over time.
Micro-Shift Reset System® Integration
Simple, neuroscience-informed tools designed for
real life — not ideal conditions.
Learn to reset your state in minutes
and build regulation as a daily practice. This will begin our State Change.
Christ-Centered Spiritual Formation
Every practice is rooted in faith. Every tool serves embodied discipleship. Nervous system science and skills that build spiritual attachment to God as you become partners — not strangers. Your body and Spirit will begin tofeel like home base. Your new nervous system
set point WITH God, Withness as a Witness to His
overflowing love working through you as you live, move & interact
with other Christians. We are building "fast track" skills that work
without you having to think about them. And don't we all need this right now?
Deeper Still is intentionally limited in size. Transformation this deep
requires safety, consistency, and shared commitment.
Prerequisite: Graduate of a Promised Land Living Cohort.
Deeper Still is an independent offering created for women who have previously participated in
Promised Land Living (PLL)
cohorts and desire a space to continue practicing and integrating the work in community.
Hi I’m your coach
Doreen Steenland
Walking With You — Not Ahead of You
I’m not here to fix you or rush your growth. I’m here to walk with you as you practice becoming — slowly, honestly, and in real time. I’ve learned that transformation happens when we feel safe enough to be seen and steady enough to stay present. My role is to help you root deeply so the change you experience can truly last.

What Day and Time Will We Meet?
We will find the best time and day for everyone, once registration closes (March 26th)
It seems so long, what if I can't make them all?
This group will be flexible AND it will be a space to stretch into new heights. It is a group that will practice together and do life together. We will learn to negotiate and step into our responsibility with integrity.
What makes it different?
You make it different. You will get from this what you put into this. You will build skills that will empower all areas of your life, work and business as you step into grounded presence (this does not mean constant calm). It does mean building vagal tone (nervous system flexibility) so that you know exactly who to BE in the middle of chaos. This will be a space of FUN, Creativity, and Connection.
