Transformational Coaching for the Spiritually Curious.
Feeling stuck in the ordinary?
You’re not alone.
With 20+ years of spiritual seeking and awakening, I guide clients toward higher states of consciousness, self-love, and deep inner peace.
Recognized by Sri Bhagavan of Oneness University as fully awakened, I teach from lived experience — and help you discover your own.
There comes a moment in every seeker’s life — a quiet nudge, a crossroads, or a longing that won’t go away.
You’re not lost. You’re being called inward.
“My awakening started in 2014, when Sri Bhagavan announced my full awakening via the path of Oneness in India. Since then I’ve lived in the Witnessing state. I’ve been humbled by humanity and the incredible beauty in life I’d not seen up until that point.”
Welcome. My name is Michael Clingerman. For over 20 years, I’ve walked the path of deep transformation across India, Brazil, and the U.S. — learning how to listen, heal, and awaken from within.
I offer spiritual and intuitive coaching rooted in lived experience, sacred presence, and practical support. Whether you're navigating a life shift, seeking clarity, or craving a deeper connection to the Divine, this is a place where your inner journey is honored and guided.
You don’t have to walk alone.
BENEFITS OF AWAKENING
-
Enhanced Clarity and Focus
When the mind is quiet, thoughts become clearer, allowing you to focus on what truly matters. This clarity helps in decision-making and prioritizing your goals.
-
Reduced Stress and Anxiety
In the stillness, you can observe your thoughts without judgment. This practice fosters a sense of calm, reducing the grip of stress and anxiety on your being.
-
Increased Self-Awareness
Quieting the mind opens the door to self-reflection. You become more aware of your thoughts, emotions, and patterns, leading to greater self-understanding and personal growth.
-
Improved Emotional Regulation
A tranquil mind allows you to respond to emotions rather than react impulsively. This cultivated space helps manage feelings like anger, sadness, and frustration with grace.
“Coaching with Michael bridges the sacred and the everyday — guiding you toward healing, awakening, and self-trust.”
“I guide seekers through a transformative, spiritual journey, offering a structured approach to awakening that bridges Eastern mysticism with Western practicality.
My program provides a gradual entry into profound spiritual experiences via custom plans and intensives. This includes access to a remarkable mind-quieting phenomenon from India, leading to awakened states available to all students.”

“Michael helped me find joy in the journey again.”
I came to Michael during a time of deep burnout. After nearly a decade in the high-pressure world of IT, I felt disconnected, depressed, and stuck — constantly reliving the past or worrying about the future. I had forgotten how to live in the present.
Through his grounded guidance and spiritual insight, Michael helped me shift my perspective, reconnect with myself, and begin to heal. His mentorship gave me practical tools for emotional growth, and more importantly, helped me rediscover self-love — something that has transformed every part of my life.
Michael brings a rare blend of wisdom, compassion, and clarity. He understands both the inner and outer worlds — and knows how to meet people exactly where they are. His work is as profound as it is practical.
I now move through life with greater peace, purpose, and joy. I consider myself truly fortunate to have crossed paths with him.

A Global Seeker.
Grounded Guide and Spiritual Companion.
I’m Michael Clingerman — a lifelong seeker, artist, teacher, and guide. For over two decades, I’ve walked a spiritual path that has taken me across continents and deep within myself. My journey has brought me to the sacred healing grounds of Brazil, to the monasteries and meditation halls of India, and into the living rooms, boardrooms, and hearts of thousands who’ve come seeking peace, clarity, and spiritual connection.
From 2006 to 2011, I founded and led the San Francisco Oneness community, sharing teachings and meditative transmissions with over 2,000 unique participants. I’ve studied at the Oneness University in India, worked alongside spiritual healers in Brazil, and led meditative experiences that touch the edges of awakening. I’m also a medium and channel for my personal guides and beloved spirit family.
My own healing journey — including the resolution of a chronic physical condition through spiritual practice — reminds me daily that miracles are real and that healing is possible on many levels.
Before this chapter of my life, I worked in Silicon Valley, including time as a Design Director at Yahoo!. I understand the pressures of corporate life and the quiet ache of wanting something more. That ache, in many ways, became the doorway to this work — to the sacred task of helping others return to themselves.
Today, I offer spiritual and intuitive coaching for individuals, couples, and small groups. My work bridges ancient wisdom with modern life, blending mindfulness, energy work, and deep presence. I also bring my background in art and creative expression to support clients in discovering their unique path — professionally, emotionally, and spiritually.
You don’t have to do this alone. The journey inward can be the most courageous and the most rewarding. I’d be honored to walk with you.
“Michael coached me into becoming the leader I was afraid to believe I could be.”
I met Michael through the Oneness community in San Francisco, where his leadership, charisma, and care brought a powerful spiritual group to life. When he passed the baton to me, he continued to coach me behind the scenes — teaching me how to navigate group dynamics, lead with integrity, and grow into my own voice as a teacher.
His belief in me filled the gap where my own confidence hadn’t yet arrived. That support shaped the leader I am today — and gave me the foundation to guide others in turn.
Over the years, Michael has also helped me through personal and professional crossroads — career changes, health challenges, relationship shifts. He brings clarity, emotional depth, and a rare ability to zoom out and reveal the deeper meaning behind any transition.
His guidance is direct but caring. He listens with presence and speaks with purpose. I’ve grown tremendously under his mentorship — and anyone navigating change would be lucky to have his support.

“Michael brings vision, strength, and a beautiful heart to everything he does.”
I had the honor of training and teaching alongside Michael in the early days of the Oneness University movement in India. To be part of something so pioneering required courage, creativity, and deep spiritual conviction — all of which Michael embodied fully.
His gentle leadership and ability to spark transformation in others made a lasting impression on me. Whether guiding a group or supporting a peer, Michael has a way of believing in people that helps them step into their higher potential.
He’s not just insightful — he takes action. Michael has a rare gift for grounding spiritual principles into real-world change. I’ve witnessed his ability to navigate through life transitions with grace, and help others do the same. He leads with integrity, innovation, and heart.

My Approach
How We Work Together
Transformation doesn’t come from following someone else’s map. It comes from discovering your own — with support, reflection, and the right tools.
My coaching approach is intuitive, co-creative, and rooted in lived spiritual experience. I draw from the co-active coaching model (CTI), years of spiritual study in India and Brazil, and my own journey through healing, awakening, and reinvention. Sessions are grounded, warm, and spacious — and designed to meet you exactly where you are.
We’ll explore your internal landscape through the lens of Mind, Body, Spirit, and Intuition — a simple but powerful framework I call MBSI. Some sessions may include deep listening, somatic awareness, guided meditation, journaling, intention setting, or energy work. Others may be more practical — unpacking decisions, relationships, or major transitions with presence and clarity.
You don’t have to “fix” yourself to grow. You just have to get curious, stay honest, and say yes to the parts of you that are ready to emerge.
“Michael, you're not a fish. You're a human being. Stop swimming upstream.”
A monk once told me this — and I’ve been learning what it means ever since.
We don’t have to suffer our way into clarity. We just have to stop fighting what’s already trying to guide us.
Wherever you are in your journey — I’ll meet you there.
“Working with Michael was a turning point in my healing.”
I first met Michael through his Oneness Meditation group, where his guided meditations immediately brought me to a place of deep calm and connection — beyond anything I’d experienced before. His energy work, both through touch and eye transmission, helped still my constantly chattering mind and opened the door to powerful insights and emotional healing.
Michael creates a profoundly safe space. His gentle presence allowed me to access and release long-held childhood and ancestral wounds. Through subtle questions and intuitive guidance, he helped me uncover and rewire old belief systems that had been quietly sabotaging my life for years.
Our work together has brought me clarity, balance, and self-acceptance in a way I never thought possible. I’m deeply grateful for the shifts he’s helped me make — and for the life that continues to unfold because of it.

My Pillars: Awareness Discovery Choice
Awareness
Noticing without judgment. Becoming present to what’s real — emotionally, physically, and energetically. This is where transformation begins.
Discovery
Exploring what lies beneath the surface. What’s ready to be healed, expressed, or released? What patterns are asking to be seen?
Choice
You always have a choice — and power lives in claiming it. Through guided reflection and spiritual support, you begin to act from alignment rather than reaction.
