Our Story
Meet Our Founder
Graeme Raymond
Founder, Expere
Expere began in 2023 with the mission of supporting individuals on their personal transformational journeys. However, our journey started long before.
Graeme's first explorations into mind and consciousness began at an early age, discovering meditation in his teenage years, and then expanding upon his teachings in university while he studied Philosophy and Theology at Queen's University, Canada graduating in 2011.
After a life-altering journey battling cancer and undergoing multiple surgeries, Graeme embarked on a path of self-healing and rediscovered the profound connection between our mind, body and reality. Content, programs and training taught at Expere include the practices Graeme has used to facilitate his own physical healing and transformative growth.
Now as the Program Director and lead instructor, Graeme offers a unique perspective and transformative experience to guide others in connecting with their mind, body and reality, unlocking their highest potential.

What are the Expere Modules?
At Expere, we believe real transformation happens when we harmonize our inner world (mind, body, energy) with our external environment. Our modules are designed to enhance mind-body awareness, heal past conditioning, and help manifest new realities.
The Expere framework is built on four main training areas:
-
Cognitive Modules: Focus on mental practices that train the psyche and promote clarity and focus.
-
Somatic Modules: Engage the body with techniques to enhance awareness and control over physiological processes.
-
Energy Modules: Explore practices for sensing, managing, and balancing energetic systems.
-
Field Modules: Extend practices into the external world to align your environment with your internal evolution.
Each module incorporates science-backed techniques, practical exercises, and methods designed to empower you on your healing and personal transformation journey.
