Does This Sound Familiar?
•You're successful on paper, but feel hollow inside
You've achieved what you're "supposed to" achieve. Career relationships financial stability. But something essential is missing. You feel like you're going through the motios of a life that looks good but doesn't feel real.
•Therapy hasn't worked - you're too complex.
You can think your way through anything except your own healing. You understand your patterns. You know the psychology. You've read the books. But understanding hasn't translated to transformation. Your greatest strength -your mind- has become your biggest obstacle.
•You've tried everything with minimal results.
Therapy, coaching, meditation apps, self-help books, courses, retreats. Some things help a little, temporarily. Nothing sticks. You're starting to wonder if you are just broken in a way that can't be fixed.
(You are not. You just need a different approach.)
•You can't name what's missing.
If someone asks what's wrong, you can't quite explain it. Depression? Anxiety? Existential emptiness? It's all of it and none of it. You just know that you're not living the life you're capable of, and you can't figure out why.
•You're desperate for real change.
You're tired of surface-level improvements. You're tired of coping mechanisms. You're tired of waitning for something to finally click. You're ready to do the actual work, if someon could just show you what that work actually is.
If you are nodding along, you're in the right place.
You're not the 80% that conventional methods were built for.
You are the 20%.
And that is exactly who I work with.
Why Nothing Has Worked
(And What Actually Will)
Most approaches are built for people who respond to textbook solutions.
•Talk about your feelings.
•Practice gratitude.
•Challenge your negative thoughts.
These work for about 80% of people.
But if you're reading this, you're probably in the 20%.
You're the ones who are too defended, too complex, too intelligent for the cookie-cutter approach.
Your therapist hasn't lived what you're experiencing.
Your coach is reading from a script.
And your brain is three steps ahead of their techniques.
For 20 years, I've been an acupuncturist.
I've learned to read what's happening beneath the surface—in the body,
in the energy, in what people aren't saying.
I've studied the metavisceral relationship between our emotions and our physical being.
I know how trauma, resistance, and unexpressed truth manifest in our tissues, our patterns, our lives.
But here's the thing: I was also you.
I dealt with depression and anxiety that no one could help me with because I was "too much."
Too defended.
Too analytical.
I couldn't get out of my own way.
So I had to develop approaches that actually worked on someone like me—someone who could dismantle every technique, deflect every insight, and intellectualize every feeling.
What I discovered:
The longest journey is from the head to the heart.
And the fastest way there isn't through more thinking.
It's through presence, discernment, and shadow work—being willing to face the parts of yourself you've been avoiding.
That's what we do in this webinar. Not theory. The actual work.

About Chris
Meet Your Guide: Chris DiStefano
The Acupuncturist Who Wakes People Up
For two decades, Chris has been helping people as an acupuncturist in Terrytown, New York. But his work has always gone deeper than needles and meridians.
Chris specializes in the ones conventional approaches don't work on. The highly intelligent, defended, complex individuals who've tried everything. He knows them because he was them—someone dealing with depression and anxiety that no one could help because he was "too much."
Through his own journey and 20 years of practice, Chris developed a unique integration of:
•Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture
•Advanced coaching and psychotherapy techniques
•Shadow work and heart-based connection practices
•Deep understanding of the mind-body-spirit relationship
•Manifestation and consciousness exploration
His clients consistently report:
•Spontaneous breakthroughs in the first session
•Faster progress than they've ever experienced
•Finally being able to trust someone who can see through their defenses
•Connecting to parts of themselves they didn't know existed
Chris's approach is direct. He'll call you on your BS. He'll push you further than you think you can go. But he'll also be more present, more supportive and more effective than anyone you've worked with before.
As Chris says: "I don't work from a book. I've been through hell and back, and I've got everything. I see where the shortcuts and dead ends are. When people come to me, there's no one left to try. So we go deeper, faster, and more precisely until we find what's real."

The Question Isn't "Can I Change?"
The Question Is: "Am I Finally Ready To?"
You've been successful at everything else in your life.
You've achieved what you set out to achieve.
But something essential is missing.
You've tried the conventional routes.
Therapy that kept you comfortable but didn't transform you.
Books that made sense intellectually but didn't change how you feel.
Approaches that worked for everyone else but somehow not for you.
You're not broken.
You're complex. Intelligent. Defended.
You're the 20% that textbook solutions weren't built for.
And that's exactly who I work with.
For 20 years, I've been helping people who thought they were impossible cases. The ones who'd tried everything. The ones whose own brains blocked their healing. The ones who were "too much" for conventional approaches.
I can help you because I was you.
The longest journey is from your head to your heart.
Let me show you the way.
60 minutes. Three exercises. Real transformation.
Are you ready?
