Physiological
What does your body and nervous system need to support energy, attention, capacity, and engagement?
Embodied Inclusion 360™
Coming soon · Early access
What if we understood people by what helps them thrive, not simply by what they struggle with?
Embodied Inclusion 360™ is an innovative profile designed to help identify the conditions that influence how we learn, work, connect, participate, and thrive. We invite you to help us build it.
Early participants will be invited to complete the profile at no cost, receive their EI 360 report, and provide feedback on their experience.
Inclusion begins with understanding.
Too often, we ask:
- What is wrong?
- What diagnosis does this person have?
- Why aren't they succeeding?
Embodied Inclusion 360 asks a different question:
What conditions help this person flourish?
Because human functioning doesn't happen in isolation. Our ability to focus, learn, connect, communicate, contribute, and thrive is shaped by the interaction between who we are and the environments, relationships, experiences, and supports around us.
EI 360 is being developed to make those often-invisible influences easier to see.
A 360° view of inclusion
The Embodied Inclusion 360 Profile explores five interconnected dimensions that can influence human functioning and flourishing.
Relational
What qualities of connection, communication, trust, and interpersonal support help you thrive?
Environmental
How do sensory and physical environments affect your ability to participate and perform at your best?
Instructional
How do you best receive, process, organize, and engage with information, expectations, and learning?
Transcendental
What sources of meaning, purpose, values, creativity, intuition, or connection to something larger help orient and sustain you?
Together, these dimensions create a richer picture of the conditions that support an individual's capacity to flourish.
Not another personality test.
EI 360 isn't designed to put you into a box. It's designed to help you better understand the conditions that help you get out of one.
The goal is not simply greater self-awareness. The goal is actionable insight that can help individuals and the people who support them create environments, relationships, and experiences in which they are more likely to thrive.
Help us build it.
Before EI 360 is released publicly, we're inviting a select group of early participants to help us test and refine it.
Your feedback won't simply evaluate the tool. It will help shape it.
Beta testers may be invited to
- Complete the Embodied Inclusion 360 Profile
- Receive an early version of their personalized EI 360 report
- Tell us what resonated and what didn't
- Evaluate the clarity and usefulness of the questions and results
- Identify perspectives, experiences, or needs we may have overlooked
- Help us make the final experience more inclusive, accessible, and useful

Who built this
Niki Elliott, PhDThree decades at the intersection of neurodiversity, inclusion, and human flourishing.
Embodied Inclusion 360 was created by Niki Elliott, PhD. Dr. Niki serves as the director of the Center for Embodied Equity and Neurodiversity (CEEN) at the University of San Diego SOLES. She is also the founder of the Mindful Leaders Project.
A leading voice in neurodiversity and trauma-informed education, Dr. Niki has trained thousands of teachers, school counselors, and helping professionals worldwide to better support individuals with learning differences, mental health diagnoses, trauma histories, and behavioral challenges. Her research integrates educational neuroscience, mind-body practices, and embodied equity to reimagine how we create environments where people can learn, belong, and flourish across the lifespan and lifespaces.
Be part of what comes next.
People thrive when we stop asking them to fit environments that were never designed with them in mind and start understanding the conditions they need to flourish.
If that idea resonates with you, we invite you to join the movement. Join the early-access list to receive beta testing opportunities, development updates, and first access to Embodied Inclusion 360.
