Jarrod Roy, founder of the Hidden Source Method, first discovered yoga and meditation in 2009 as part of a lifestyle change to remedy stress, chronic pain, and fatigue.

He completed his first 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training with Austin-based Zingara Yoga in 2014. That training inspired him so deeply that he left his day job with the dream of pursuing yoga as a full-time vocation.

By 2015, Jarrod was teaching multiple classes at The Yoga Garden, where he was also invited to become a co-owner. From 2016 to 2019, he served as owner of The Yoga Garden, shaping it into a community space rooted in adaptive, therapeutic yoga and the deeper, inner teachings of the tradition. During this time, he also studied sound healing and, in 2019, completed his 500-hour teacher training under the esteemed Gary Kraftsow at the American Viniyoga Institute.

That chapter brought Jarrod into his true element: guiding others through not just postures, but the breath, mantra, meditation, and philosophy of yoga. His teaching style has always been gentle, adaptive, and inclusive — inviting students beyond physical practice into deeper awareness, balance, and empowerment.

At the same time, fatherhood, career transitions, and the responsibilities of providing for his family — all while living on a farm along the Rio Grande in the heart of New Mexico — opened a new set of questions:

Am I truly living a life of meaning? Am I giving myself permission to take on work and projects that matter to me?

Those questions became the turning point.

In 2025, Jarrod became a recent graduate of CreativeMind’s Depth Coaching Program. Alongside his ongoing work as an Account Executive for a global corporation, he now integrates his yogic background with Jungian psychology, neuroscience, and mindfulness to create a unique coaching process: The Hidden Source Method.

Through this method, Jarrod helps high-achieving parents give themselves permission to step into careers, projects, and creative callings that are meaningful — permission they often don’t realize they’re allowed to claim. His work honors both sides of the paradox: preserving what has served in the first half of life, while also integrating the opposite qualities that had to be repressed in order to succeed.

Jarrod believes transformation doesn’t require burning down the life you’ve built. It requires awakening the deeper meaning hidden within it, so you can honor your responsibilities, and at the same time, honor your soul’s calling.
