Get 7 Exclusive Videos From Our Last Emotional Repression Inquiry Workshop

In 2025, 20 courageous souls gathered in a quiet Dutch town for three days of deep, intensive training in KI Emotional Repression Inquiry. They came carrying physical pain, relationship struggles, anxiety, grief, addictions—you name it. Through small group mentorship and somatic self-inquiry, they uncovered the emotional trauma buried in their bodies.

Now, we’re giving you a front-row seat with 7 short videos from that transformative workshop. Get ready to explore what’s been hidden—and start your own journey.

Day 1: The Root Cause of All Suffering (Hint: It’s NOT What Buddha Said)

In this 5-minute video, we explain…

  • Multi-Level Suffering: The difference between suffering that shows up in everyday life versus the deep stuff that’s been driving all that suffering and derailing all of your biggest ambitions.
  • Making the Unconscious Conscious: Why you hold onto beliefs to stop you from feeling certain emotions that you’re too scared to feel.
  • The Affirmation Deception: How positive self-talk becomes a way to gaslight ourselves about the trauma stored inside our bodies.
  • Addiction’s Hidden Roots: Why unmet unconscious childhood needs and emotional repression are at the root of compulsive behaviours like binge eating, scrolling and incessant worrying.
  • Reclaiming Yourself: Why you sacrificed your authenticity as children and how KI Emotional Repression Inquiry helps you win it back.

Day 2: Beyond the Crazy Stories We Tell Ourselves (and Others)

In this 5-minute video, from our last in-person workshop, you’ll learn…

  • Unpacking Horizontally: How endlessly dissecting subconscious stories at the level of the mind reinforces beliefs and identities that keep you small or lead to burnout.
  • The Fear of Feeling: How KI Emotional Repression Inquiry helps you face the fear of feeling buried emotions such as hurt, anger and sadness.
  • Tethered to Fear: Discover how much subconscious fear programming is dictating what you do and don’t do in your day-to-day life. (Plus, find out how to know if you are scared, as many repress this as well — especially when we have learned to live in our heads.)
  • Sri Nice Guy: How Toshi held on to a “nice guy” spiritual identity that kept him so shy he couldn’t even unmute himself in a Zoom meeting.
  • Tears and Rage: Why a big emotional release without touching the repression programming that is running on auto-pilot may be a distraction, preventing you from feeling deeply buried emotions. (E.g. screaming into a pillow is about as effective as yelling at your Wi-Fi router when the internet crashes.)
  • Your Evasive Self: The primary reason most people aren’t even capable of knowing if they are being authentic.

Day 3: Untethering Your Self from Suffering (Without Becoming a Monk)

In this 4-minute never-seen-before video, you’ll learn…

  • There is Nothing to Heal: Why reversing emotional repression is not a “healing quest” (and why there is nothing inside you that has been broken in the first place).
  • Awareness 2.0: How KI Emotional Repression Inquiry combines mindfulness practices with skillful inquiry to make you aware of the complex ways your subconscious limits you.
  • Addictions Melt Away: How harmful and unwanted behaviours can let go of us, rather than us letting go of them.
  • Binge Eating No More: Ina shares her story of recovering from binge eating without ever directly addressing her eating disorder.
  • No Psycho-Babble: Why we don’t talk about symptoms and diagnosis, and what we focus on instead to get you off the hamster wheel of compulsions, addictions and belief systems.

Day 4: Love Deeply (But Not the Hollywood Flavour)

If you’ve ever struggled relating to others, you may find this 3-minute video triggers one of those delightful ah-ha moments. We reveal…

  • I Attach You: Why most people are confusing love with needy attachment.
  • Attachment Wounds: How dissolving attachment wounds brings the realization that we are inherently loving beings.
  • “Mommification” and “Daddification”: How emotional repression forces people to unconsciously put unmet childhood needs for parental love onto their partners, children, friends and colleagues.
  • Supersized Reactions: How repressed emotions and buried trauma create and intensify our reactions to life’s curve balls.
  • Beyond People: How somatic inquiry helps not just with your relationship with other people, but also with money, work and (the big one) yourself.

Day 5: Why KI Emotional Repression Inquiry is Like Nothing You’ve Tried Before

If you’ve tried all sorts of self-healing methods and nothing has given you the freedom you seek, this 3-minute video shows you why KI Emotional Repression Inquiry can help you finally break through to full aliveness and raw joy. You will also understand how seeking “a state of peace” is a bypass in itself. We’ll show you…

  • Emotional Release is Not The Goal: Why Kiloby Inquiries focuses on dissolving contractions of frozen fear in the body — the missing experience — not what we’re already aware of on the surface.
  • Chasing Shifts: How chasing healing or a certain state of being is a trick the mind plays to keep people from making progress, once they start to become aware of emotional contractions in their body.
  • Outwitting Your Inner Skeptic: How to use self-doubt and second guessing to gain deeper levels of freedom.
  • Chasing Insights: Why insights in and of themselves don’t lead to transformation as trauma and repression programming is stored in the body within contractions.

Day 6: Overcome Your Addictions Without Going to War With Them

This 1-minute clip from our last live workshop sums up our approach to overcoming compulsions that have been hounding you your entire life. You’ll learn…

  • Addiction is Not Your Enemy: Why KI emotional repression inquiry doesn’t vilify addiction.
  • Why You Are Soothing Yourself: What to do before you may give into your compulsion.
  • Pain Killer Free: After just one day in the workshop, an attendee shares how he no longer needed pain medication that very evening — simply from applying a foundational tool he learned on day one.

Day 7: Pain as a Doorway to Freedom

In this 2-minute video, we show you a snapshot of our last workshop — talking about how the heavy moments in your life can become the very gateway to freedom. Find out…

  • A Skillful Way to Reveal Resistance: A reverse inquiry shows how we actually don’t want to be in our body and how we don’t really want to be ourselves.
  • Mine Your Pain: How to “mine” your pain and unearth hidden emotions, commands and fears buried inside your body.
  • Stop Gaslighting Yourself: How being conscious of the mind’s interference and aligning it with what your body is actually communicating will eliminate the gaslighting.
