Jessica Bliss
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Jessica Bliss, PhD, is an MIT-trained organic chemist, founder of Bliss Science, and your Tantric Scientist. After a successful 10-year career as an academic researcher in organic chemistry & neuroscience, she broke free of lab life to pursue experiments in consciousness & sacred relating (a different kind of ‘chemistry,’ you might say).
As a scientist, Jessica was stuck in her head and cut off from her body, emotions, and intuition. She tried to 'logic' her way through relationships and life - which resulted in chronic fatigue, anxiety, and an inability to savour life.
After years of numbing herself through overwork and drinking, she left her career and went on a journey to say 'yes' to what scared her. Discovering tantra for the first time brought her an embodied spiritual awakening. She spent 4+ years in tantric communities in full-time study and practice, where she finally stopped overthinking everything by connecting with her body, welcoming the truth of her experience, and relaxing into her feminine power.
Jessica’s passion for classical tantra comes from her studies with Christopher ‘Hareesh’ Wallis and her current teacher Paul Muller-Ortega, years of reading the old ‘Tantras’ translated from Sanskrit and scholarly works, as well as embodied sadhana with the Mahavidyas - Tantric Wisdom Goddesses. She has studied conscious relating with John Wineland and Kendra Cunov, trauma healing and shadow integration with 5 different teachers, and a multi-year course on classical Kundalini, in addition to countless hours in meditation retreats and leading rituals.
Her methodology comes from: parts work, sacred theater, narrative therapy, process work, meditation, breathwork, non-duality, neo- and classical tantra, attachment theory, trauma, and hatha yoga.
Her professional credentials include certification by the International Coaching Federation at the PCC level, Layla Martin's Love, and Relationship coaching (VITA), and Process-Oriented Psychology with David Bedrick.
