20 Years of Seeking...
or 20 Years of Sacred Fulfillment
I know The Energy Codes and BodyAwake Yoga can help you accelerate true fulfillment in your life because they are built on what has generated my own embodied, fulfilled success.
I’ve been blessed to travel all over the world, making a difference in the lives of tens of thousands of people, while also enjoying tremendous freedom in my life. All because I found the missing link to understanding what life is all about. It wasn't always this way. Let me briefly share with you my own story...
My father, Dr. M.T. Morter, Jr., was an internationally-known doctor of chiropractic and pioneer of Energy Medicine. His work in developing Bio Energetic Synchronization Technique, or B.E.S.T., a process of clearing subconscious interference in the energy field inhibiting the body from healing naturally, was ground-breaking and life-changing.
As I followed in his footsteps, I spent years working with the energy fields of patients and clients and witnessed miraculous results in healing and transformations.
In my own life, however, I suffered from daily migraines and exhaustion.
Then, 20 years ago I experienced a remarkable and profound awakening.
While meditating one day, I spontaneously accessed an energy field – a level of consciousness – beyond what I’d ever imagined. With that one experience I understood a profound truth I’d been missing in my practice.
We are not meant to work with energy, we are energy.
With this one realization, instantly I was freed from what would have been years of struggle and pain as I accessed this profoundly different reality – one of pure joy.
A reality I knew was available to everyone!
Fueled by the awareness of this great truth, I made my life a living laboratory to codify a process by which anyone can access this realm of awareness and experience the benefits of living from the Truth of who we are.
I traveled to India where I began my training in ancient Eastern practices of energy, yoga and meditation. I spent hours in deep meditation exploring ways to access this realm once again. During one of my JourneyAwake® Meditation Retreats to Bali, it became clear to me that the energy experienced in yoga asana was the essential, Soulful Self, intentionally moving into sacred geometries to further embody and expand my own consciousness.
Mixed with advanced study and research in natural healing and energy medicine, I codified the process of awakening I’d experienced into The Energy Codes, a life-changing program that has now enabled thousands of people all over the world to overcome pain, disease, depression and more as they awaken their innate creativity, intuition and inner power that comes from living as pure energy - the Soulful Self.
What took me 10 years to recreate, I can now access instantly using the practices and principles outlined in The Energy Codes. BodyAwake Yoga is an essential component for accelerating the transformation and embodiment of higher consciousness that The Energy Codes teaches
It’s a system I know can work for YOU.
I didn’t have to wait 20 years to accomplish this.
Because it developed into a super-smart system.
One that will absolutely work in your life too.
Now, I teach my Energy Codes coursework and BodyAwake Yoga online to thousands of individuals who have transformed their lives for the better. I have witnessed instantaneous healings, life-changing shifts in consciousness, mended relationships, and the manifestation of clients' dreams and goals.
Through the combined use of BioEnergetics, Energy Medicine, BodyAwake Yoga and The Energy Codes, I have helped people awaken their natural healer WITHIN. Pain, anxiety, distress and chronic illness have all melted away in the face of revealing the Soulful Self and the awareness that we are made of pure creative energy.
I have been blessed to travel the world and share this work with some of the most extraordinary people on the planet.
I get to meet, work with, and teach people just like you. I've seen their lives change.
When the pandemic started in 2020, I offered free BodyAwake Yoga classes online throughout the summer, creating an amazing and dedicated world-wide community practicing this transformational yoga. That community continues to grow today through the BodyAwake Yoga monthly membership and now, the BodyAwake School of Yoga Teacher Certification Program.
In the past two decades, I’ve been able to help many others heal their lives and become the true creators of the life experience they were meant to have. Each day is filled with inspiration and joy as I watch the lives of students and clients transform into the miraculous experience they are destined to live.
I am so grateful for the life I have today.
In the past 20 years, I have experienced a way of living that has changed my understanding of this reality and what is possible for each of us. In the process, I’ve built a unique brand and reputation of integrity.
I made it my life’s work to codify this process so everyone could access this truth inherently available to them, using simple, yet powerful energetic practices.
With The Energy Codes book and BodyAwake Yoga, it is time to share that system for the benefit of all humanity to awaken to their miraculous nature within.
And now I want to continue to pay it forward and share BodyAwake Yoga with individuals who are ready to thrive through yoga, and those who desire to teach others.
Whether you are a long-time yoga teacher who desires to deepen your ability to reveal as consciousness embodied, or you are new to yoga and ready to step forward to share this work with others, you'll be inspired and transformed through the BodyAwake School of Yoga Teacher Certification program.
BodyAwake Yoga!!!!! Words can’t express how amazing it has been to meet with Dr.Sue on the mat. Also, knowing there are hundreds of others participating feels so empowering in the poses. I’ll say it’s better than winning the lottery because The Energy Codes is the lottery of life.
Thank you Dr. Sue!

I truly love BodyAwake Yoga… I am healing in body, mind, and soul… I am feeling peaceful and magnificent…my body is opening.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Dr. Sue weaves her philosophy into these yoga classes, they are unlike any yoga class I have ever attended. Sometimes, I just listen to the class to further understand and embody the truth of who I am, my Soulful Self. What a gift.
Thank you Dr. Sue…
Lisa
It feels that she translates the ancient wisdom of yoga into a real-life experience and possibility, to step into a global state of awakening. At the same time, I love her approach and her journey of embodiment. It always felt strange to me, that the goal of yoga would be to be awakened and enlightened and to stay in that state of bliss, in which we cannot participate in the matters of the world anymore. Only after hearing Dr. Sue’s teachings, Yoga made more sense to me...
Julie
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the gift of BodyAwake Yoga! I love the classes so much and feel some tremendous changes as a result of the practice. I have been a long-term spiritual practitioner, in study, meditation and yoga. So to experience these dramatic changes in myself… has been tremendous and notable!
