What is the Mindful Within Method?
The Mindful Within Method™ is a trauma-informed, evidence-based framework created by Summer Mowery, LCSW, designed to support individuals experiencing chronic stress, anxiety, emotional burnout, or trauma-related symptoms. It integrates principles from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), somatic awareness, and parts work — all approached through a compassionate, nervous-system-sensitive lens.
This method helps you move beyond symptom management and into sustainable, embodied healing. Whether you’re feeling stuck in survival mode, overwhelmed by internal or external demands, or seeking more peace and presence in daily life, the Mindful Within Method meets you exactly where you are.
How It Works: The Process
How It Works: The Process
The Mindful Within Method invites you to walk through the following core phases:
Awareness – Understand the root causes of overwhelm, stress responses, and self-sabotage patterns
Regulation – Learn nervous system-based practices to calm, ground, and stabilize from the inside out
Reflection – Develop mindful self-observation and cognitive flexibility to shift unhelpful thought patterns
Integration – Apply structured strategies and compassionate self-leadership to support lasting change
Whether you’re engaging through individual therapy, self-study, or group support, these phases are layered gently and sequentially to match your readiness and goals.

For Those Struggling with Trauma, Anxiety and Depression
This manual serves as the foundation of the method (the why and the how)— a structured, trauma-informed guide that includes:
Psychoeducation on stress, trauma, and the nervous system
Mindfulness-based exercises and regulation tools
Cognitive and somatic reflection practices
Values-based decision-making strategies
Real-life examples, visual metaphors, and self-checks
It’s written in a calm, accessible tone for individuals navigating anxiety, dissociation, or emotional overwhelm — and it can be used in therapy sessions, as a self-study tool, or in combination with the membership.
For Those Struggling with Trauma, Anxiety and Depression
The companion workbook offers space to personalize your journey through the manual. Includes:
Reflection prompts
Symptom tracking and mood check-ins
Personalized regulation plans
Exercises for values clarification, boundary mapping, and parts work
Both the manual and workbook are available on Amazon in Kindle and paperback formats and will also be included as digital downloads within the upcoming Mindful Within Membership.
