About Steady Self School

Steady Self School was founded by Julia Dyer — meditation teacher, nervous system educator, and longtime student of Classical Tantra in the Sri Vidya tradition.

For over a decade, Julia has guided students through meditation, attention training, and somatic practice designed to cultivate steadiness under pressure. Her teaching emphasizes structure, depth, and psychological literacy rather than performance or spectacle. The work is rigorous without being rigid — and it holds in real life.

Julia is currently completing a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute, one of the world's foremost depth psychology programs. The depth of that training continues to inform how she approaches this work — alongside her primary foundation in Classical Tantra, nervous system science, and over ten years of dedicated practice and teaching.

Steady Self School is not a wellness brand. It is a school.

Through live online cohorts, in-person work in Santa Barbara, one-on-one sessions, and the podcast Inner Work, Outer World, the aim remains consistent: to train the human capacity for attention — so that people can be fully present to their own lives, make decisions from clarity rather than reactivity, and develop a nervous system equal to the life they are trying to live.

This work is steady, grounded, and built for real life.
