In today’s fast-paced world, many face critical barriers to personal and professional fulfillment. Rising burnout, economic uncertainty, and mental health challenges create tension between pursuing joy and managing survival.
About 42% of workers globally report burnout (Boston Consulting Group, 2023). Over half of people face chronic stress, climate anxiety, and mental health struggles (VML Intelligence, 2024). Increasing financial pressures and mental health concerns deepen these challenges. These pressures create a paradox: while people seek purpose and joy, systemic barriers often hold them back.
The Draconist offers a hybrid approach that blends creative leadership, holosomatic energy therapy, and entrepreneurial thinking. Founded by Burcu Tas in 2025, The Draconist emerged from her own transformation and a shared human experience, reflecting disconnection, uncertainty and the feeling of being stuck. By realigning with her essence, she reshaped her life. This awakening inspired her to create space for others to do the same: to navigate transition, reconnect with themselves, and design lives rooted in authenticity.
Every step, every breath brings you closer to the essence that has always been yours. Be generous in dreaming. Joy, abundance, and fulfillment through your unique path are all possible together.
crafting joy, fullfilment, abundance
Reclaim your purpose and design a life where all three thrive together.


The Draconist is inspired by the dance of dualities.
Fire and Water.
Yin and Yang.
Sun and Moon.
It stems from Sol (ᛋ), symbolizing the sun, victory, and success, and Lagu (ᛚ), representing flow, intuition, the subconscious, and creative expression as key forces of essence. Its essence is also reflected in Wynn (ᚹ), which embodies joy, fulfillment, and inner happiness, and Ing (ᛝ), which signifies potential, transformation, and growth.
Creation and emergence are not destinations. They are invitations from The Draconist. A dance of becoming, knowing, and unfolding. The unseen takes form when you trust in its presence.
With The Draconist, you do not have to choose one aspect of your life over another. Joy, abundance, and fulfillment can all be part of your journey. One does not exclude the other. It is not about picking between paths. It is about integrating them in your own unique way.
The path may not be mapped, but it is known. It calls to you. The Draconist invites you to listen, trust, and walk with fierce surrender. Let intuition guide you. Let the journey reveal itself. The unknown is not emptiness. It is the space where you unfold into who you truly are.

It’s not a destination, but a space for growth, connection, and discovery.
Join us and let your journey unfold.
At The Draconist, transformation begins from within.
True change often extends beyond thought and analysis. It starts by addressing what the mind alone cannot access: unprocessed emotions, energetic blockages, self-sabotaging patterns, and embodied experiences that shape the way we live, create, and interact.
Holosomatic Energy Therapy® lies at the heart of this process, offering a trauma-informed and science-based method that integrates breath-somatic work with ancient energetic systems. It supports emotional release, regulates the nervous system, and restores connection with the body’s innate intelligence.
Following this internal work, practical integration takes place.
The Draconist employs creative strategies, innovative tools, and design thinking to catalyze meaningful, lasting change across all aspects of your journey.
Every path is unique, and so is the process. Your experience with The Draconist is tailored to your needs, with energy work laying the foundation for realignment with your authentic self. This work is not about fixing problems, but about restoring alignment and purpose in both your personal and professional spheres. It is deeply grounded, ensuring that change is both tangible and lasting, empowering you to create a life that resonates with your true essence.

"I’ve had a few sessions with Burcu, and they’ve been truly transformative. In moments when I felt breathless and lost in a dead-end street, she became a source of healing by showing me paths I hadn’t seen—like shining a light where I thought there was none. Each session left a deep impact on me… and more importantly, the changes she helped me create weren’t just temporary, but lasting.
It’s hard to put all of this into words, but I can say this: even now, whenever I feel overwhelmed by worry or anxiety, the way she guided me during those sessions comes vividly to mind. I remember her words, how she shifted my perspective, and I apply them. And just like that, my heart feels at ease.
We’ll continue on this journey together, and knowing that she’s there—knowing I can rely on that bond of trust—makes me feel incredibly lucky."

Burcu brings together corporate clarity and soulful depth, integrating breath work, chakra awareness, and meditation with a tailored, results-driven methodology. Her support was not only deeply personal but also scalable and forward-thinking.

Projects & Collaborations
'Burcu Tas is a creative force—clear-minded, grounded, and bold in vision.
As the founder of The Draconist, she weaves myth, aesthetics, and strategy into a practice that is both rooted and otherworldly. Burcu doesn’t just think in concepts—she feels in systems. Whether in conversation, curation, or creation, she has a rare ability to draw out the essence of people and projects.
To work with her is to enter a current of clear thought and intuitive action—where creativity moves with intention. She brings both rigor and softness, structure and magic. Working together during the Creative Business Series reminded me of the power of quiet confidence, poetic clarity, and creative integrity.
She brings lucidity not only to ideas, but also to dialogue. It was a joy to communicate and co-create with her. If you're looking to reconnect with your creative compass or reimagine your path through a more embodied, intuitive lens, Burcu and The Draconist offer not just a service—but a transformative experience."

"I recently had the most beautiful holosomatic energy work session with Burcu, and I can’t recommend her enough. From the moment I stepped into her space, I felt instantly at ease—her place was cozy, filled with calming scents from candles, and her unique music selection created the perfect atmosphere for deep healing.
We began with a gentle meditation that helped me ground and center myself, and then moved into breathwork, where she intuitively guided me through the process while also working on balancing my chakras. I felt completely supported throughout, and her presence was both grounding and nurturing.
By the end of the session, I felt lighter, more connected, and so much more in tune with myself. It was a truly special experience, and I’m so grateful to have shared it with someone as gifted and caring as her."

"Burcu is a wonderful space holder. From the moment I entered her space to the moment I left, I felt genuinely cared for.
She is non-judgmental, which made me feel safe, and she is incredibly intuitive, fully present, and truly takes her time with you. She has a powerful toolkit to help you release any emotional baggage.
After the session, she also takes the time to support you in integrating your insights. Which is so valuable!
Burcu is truly one of a kind when it comes to space holding. I’d recommend her to anyone. Thank you, Burcu!"

“The session felt like running through a wild jungle and landing in a peaceful lake. My body went on a bit of a ride - warmth, drowsiness, instinctive movement I didn’t know I had in me. But the real shift happened after. It was less about muscles and more about something deeper, like my soul had been gently nudged awake.
She holds space in the most beautiful way - calm, supportive, and full of passion. You feel safe, seen, and oddly ready for whatever comes up. If you’re even a little bit curious, give it a try. It might just open a new chapter you didn’t know was waiting.”

"If you’re new to holosomatic energy work like I was, Burcu is the person to start exploring with.
From the first moment I stepped on the yoga mat she guided me in the best way possible and made me feel comfortable enough to open my heart to her lovely space. For a creative person like me, this was a very different and eye opening experience, a must try if you’re feeling ready for it.
Thanks a lot Burcu again for our lovely session and your guidance.."

"I had the pleasure of joining one of the creative business workshop series facilitated by Burcu, and it was a truly enriching experience. What sets her apart is the way she weaves together deep inner work with practical guidance. The journey begins with exploring personal values and self-understanding, which lays a strong, authentic foundation for building a meaningful venture.
Her approach is thoughtful, structured, and refreshingly holistic. Each session felt like a step forward—gently but clearly moving from self-awareness to tangible business planning. She brings a rare combination of open-mindedness, honesty, and genuine passion to the space she holds, which made me feel both inspired and supported.
I would wholeheartedly recommend her workshops to anyone seeking to align their creative vision with a sustainable, values-driven business path."

"What do I Want to say to you all? Go and meet with her! Burcu will improve your quality of life!
I am not a woo-woo human, but I’ve been curious about metaphysics all my life. Before my session with Burcu, I was a bit skeptical that our “energy centers” could actualy tell her how I am and inform her that we I need a tune-up. Well, apparently we need help every once in a while ;)
Of course, energy is real but the idea that our bodies, when blocked, cause disruptions in our physical and mental wellness?She made me relax in a second, suddenly I was totally open and positive! Better quality of life and definitely better mindset. A better Me!
Thank you Burcu for holding space wish such grace and love!"

faq
Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® is a trauma-informed and science-backed holistic practice that combines elements from Tantra, Taoism, Breathwork, Bodywork, Somatic Experiencing, neuroscience and psychology. It works intentionally with the body, mind and energy field to release emotional blockages and trauma in a safe and sustainable way.
Techniques include energy field activation, chakra balancing, breathwork, meditation, visualization, bandha work, tantric tools, somatic practices and access to non-ordinary states of consciousness. Instead of seeking temporary catharsis or uncontrolled energy surges, this method prepares the body gradually and respectfully for deeper energetic experiences such as Kundalini awakening. It avoids guru-centered dynamics and spiritual bypassing, and always centers your well-being and readiness.
The benefits of Holosomatic Therapy® can be felt across physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. Physically, it supports increased energy, improved health, better flexibility and pain relief. Mentally, it brings clarity, reduces stress and enhances cognitive function. Emotionally, it creates space for joy, emotional balance and self-awareness. Spiritually, it opens the door to expanded consciousness, deeper connection to self and life, and a more intuitive and aligned way of being.
This program is designed for everyone. Whether you are experienced in energy work or completely new to somatic practices, you will be guided step by step with care and clarity. Many people join with no previous experience and leave feeling deeply supported, connected and transformed.
It’s well known that many people experience challenges during Kundalini activation sessions, which can sometimes lead to trauma or illness. Our program, however, offers a holistic and therapeutic approach that prioritizes the safety and well-being of you and your future clients.
Rather than simply activating Kundalini energy or pursuing unfocused catharsis, we focus on the mindful activation of energy that respects the body's readiness for Kundalini activation techniques. Our comprehensive and compassionate methodology addresses any potential blockages which can be worked through to prevent traumatic experiences.
We use a range of techniques to create a balanced and supportive experience in preparation for Kundalini activation, including:
- Energy Field Activation
- Chakra Balancing
- Breathwork
- Meditation and Visualization
- Neuroscience Principles
- Somatic Techniques
- Bandhas Work
- Tantric Practices
- Accessing Non-Ordinary States of ConsciousnessOur program is designed to safely and effectively prepare the body, alleviate blockages, and promote overall well-being while safely guiding participants through the profound journey of Kundalini awakening.
Limitations and contraindications are situations in which Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® is not recommended or should be approached with caution. It's important to note that the following list is not exhaustive, and individual circumstances may vary.
Commonly, Holosomatic Therapy® requires good physical and mental resilience, especially if no therapeutic support is available. The greatest challenge is that there is only limited research available on safety. When it comes to altered states of consciousness, there is an element of the unknown, and some effects can be undetectable.
Contraindications
* Women should refrain from using Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® during any stage of their pregnancy.
* A history of seizures, epilepsy, or severe heart disease are among the illnesses that may not react well to Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® sessions. Meditation or calm, deliberate movement activities may be preferable in these circumstances.
*The intensity of Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® can trigger psychosis in people who suffer from mental illness, particularly schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and borderline personality disorder.
* While well-managed prescription medication regimens should be maintained during Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® practice, people under the influence of recreational drugs or alcohol should abstain from participating in a Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® session.
*We strongly encourage individuals dealing with medicated depression, chronic depression, or bipolar disorder, whether receiving treatment or not, to consult their healthcare provider before signing up for Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy®.
* Diabetes is a condition that affects blood chemistry, and Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® can have an influence on blood chemistry. Most individuals with relatively mild diabetes who take control of their food and medications can endure Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy®. However, individuals with severe diabetes should avoid Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® sessions.
* Acute physical injuries can be exacerbated by a variety of movements, and the movements in Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® are autonomic. This means that they are not directed by conscious thought and could inadvertently aggravate an injury. After healing, however, it is possible that Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® can be introduced. In these cases, several elements are required, including but not limited to a solid understanding of the injury and how it happened; a clear felt sense of the body, to assess healing; clearance from medical therapists associated with treatment; commitment to rehabilitation and other physiological therapies to avoid further injury; and commitment to releasing tension associated with the injury. In the period before the therapy is indicated, those with acute physical injuries might consult with a physical therapist to choose more appropriate modalities until they have recovered enough to participate in Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy®.
* It is possible to introduce Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® after healing from any health condition or major surgery, but it is crucial to obtain approval from medical professionals in specific cases. Individuals with conditions such as detached retina, glaucoma, uncontrolled high blood pressure, strokes, TIA's, seizures, or other brain/neurological conditions, cardiovascular issues, severe osteoporosis, or thrombosis should consult with their healthcare provider before undergoing Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy®. Additionally, those with a history of aneurysms in their immediate family or using prescription blood thinners should seek medical advice. It is essential to refrain from Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy® during acute somatic and viral diseases, as well as in the presence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-lI and COPD-IIl) and chronic diseases with symptoms of decompensation or terminal illness. Taking these precautions ensures the safety and well-being of individuals considering such holistic approaches to Holosomatic ENERGY Therapy®.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Holosomatic Therapy is deeply experiential and may involve intense and unpredictable emotional or energetic releases. Please consult a medical professional if you are unsure about your participation. Your safety is our priority.What are the possible reactions and side effects of Holosomatic Energy Therapy?
Holosomatic Energy Therapy can trigger various physical and emotional responses as your body processes and releases energy. Each experience is unique, but common reactions include:
• Tingling or Tethering: A slight buzzing in the hands, feet, or face as the nervous system activates.
• Temperature Changes: Sensations of warmth, coolness, or heightened sensitivity in different areas of the body.
• Emotional Release: Laughter, tears, deep sighs, or an unexpected urge to move as emotions surface and release.
• Altered Awareness: Feelings of lightness, clarity, or deep introspection, which your facilitator will guide you through.
• Deep Connection to Yourself: Many leave feeling clearer, more present, and in tune with themselves.
• Hitting or Kicking: Some may experience spontaneous movements like hitting or kicking as part of emotional release. The therapist ensures these remain controlled, allowing deep release through trembling and natural unwinding.
• Hyperventilation: Over-breathing can occur during breathwork. Focusing on a relaxed exhale helps regulate breathing, with therapist guidance if needed.
• Temporary Discomfort: Releasing stored tension may cause dizziness, nausea, muscle spasms, or an urge to talk, laugh, or fidget. Rather than resisting, staying present with these sensations supports the process.
These responses are part of the body’s natural recalibration. Your therapist will guide you through them, ensuring a safe and supportive experience.
You can cancel your participation up to 72 hours before the session to receive a full refund or choose to reschedule. If you cancel between 72 and 48 hours before the session, rescheduling is possible, but no refund will be issued.
Cancellations made less than 48 hours before the session are non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled. In the event that The Draconist cancels the session, you will receive a full refund or have the option to reschedule.
