Award-Winning Memoir Winner, 2024 PenCraft Best Book Award – Memoir Finalist, 2024 National Indie Excellence Awards – Relationships Finalist, 2024 IAN Best Book Awards – True Story Honorable Mention, 2024 Readers’ Favorite Awards – Religion/Philosophy He promised spiritual freedom. Instead, she lost herself—until she broke the cycle. The Secret Practice is the gripping, true story of Joelle Tamraz’s 18-year entanglement with a master manipulator cloaked in the robes of a spiritual teacher. Fans of Educated, Unfollow, and Netflix’s Bikram will find this memoir impossible to put down. “Phenomenal.” —Daniella Mestyanek Young, author of Uncultured “An intense and suspenseful memoir.” —Kirkus Reviews “Captivating and hopeful… such an important story.” —Jean Brown, SEEK Safely & author of This Sweet Life At just twenty-two, Joelle traveled to Rishikesh, India—the spiritual heart of yoga—seeking wisdom, truth, and enlightenment. Instead, she found Arun: charming, magnetic, and deeply manipulative. Over the next two decades, he dismantled her identity through emotional, social, financial, and physical control. Still, she believed in the promise of true love and transformation—until she finally found the strength to reclaim her voice, her worth, and her life. Told with raw vulnerability and quiet power, The Secret Practice is more than a memoir—it's an exposé of a malignant narcissist, a portrait of a controlling intimate relationship, a warning about deceptive spirituality, and a courageous step into the light after years in the shadows.
