Your Creator Matrix by author Cathleen Beerkens blends deep personal insight with cutting-edge science to offer a roadmap for taking control of your story and reprogramming your reality in the process.
At its core, the book is about discovering that the patterns shaping your life aren’t just “who you are,” instead, they’re often unconscious loops you can change. Beerkens introduces the “creator matrix”: a multilayered system that includes our biology (such as nutrition, movement, and rest), emotions, beliefs, and even the quantum field of possibility. The way she celebrates each layer stands out—nothing is dismissed as fluff, and nothing is treated as purely mechanical. It’s an integrated model that melds mind, body, and beyond.
Beerkens writes like a friend who’s been through the trenches. Drawing on her background in human health and health education, she shares her struggles with burnout, healing, and recalibrating a life that once felt off course. Her message is compelling: she’s not preaching from a mountaintop; she’s been in the valley, too.
What makes the book rousing and occasionally surprising is how she grounds everything in science. Forget platitudes; there’s real biology and quantum physics embedded, explained clearly and with relatable analogies. She illustrates how beliefs can influence gene expression, why breathwork can shift brainwaves, and how personal stories can coat neurons with their own “sticky” patterns.
In the opening chapter, Beerkens provides readers with a tool they can use immediately: the power of perception. She writes, “I learned that my thoughts and feelings were powerful, and that, when I chose a more positive way of thinking, I was exercising my power to create a more positive and exciting life—and certainly a more ‘expanded’ life…”. It’s a powerful entry point into a book that’s ultimately about self-liberation.
Throughout, readers are offered try-it-now material—micro-movements to energize the body, breathing rituals, belief-reframing self-talk, and more. These are small, doable practices woven into the content, not just abstract theories. For example, “Eating high-frequency foods with life force is important to rejuvenate our bodies and restore our frequency.” Science tells us, writes Beerkens, that our brains are capable of adapting to new activities and environmental changes. “As we grow in consciousness, we discover that we have a choice as to which neural pathways to strengthen via consciously repeating choices of thoughts, behaviors, and habits….”
Beerkens also makes some compelling connections. In chapter two, for example, she links digestion with manifestation: “To successfully manifest what we desire, we must keep our matrix vital and clear and visualize where we want to go as we begin a new creative cycle. We must also take the time to digest and integrate who we have become from our past life stories so we are ready for the next steps.” She then explains how even productivity habits, such as to-do lists, can be subtle coping mechanisms and ways to avoid the emotional digestion needed for growth. Meditation, nutrition, and movement, she writes, help clear this heavy energy and awaken our optimal selves.
In later chapters, Beerkens explores how to resolve bodily disconnects, remove toxicity, and balance our energy fields. She writes that people who “focus on wellness with all their senses, including what that would mean and feel like for them, often improve their health.” Her emphasis is clear: transformation begins with presence and integration.
The book introduces several tools and frameworks that deepen self-awareness, including the Enneagram, the Seven Chakras, epigenetics, the Wellness Wheel, and even quantum mechanics. While the quantum material, such as non-local consciousness or field theory, may feel abstract at times, she enriches these ideas with real-life stories of people who’ve shifted chronic pain, anxiety, or stuck emotional energy. This approach makes the more expansive ideas feel achievable, not out of reach.
Ultimately, Your Creator Matrix offers a thoughtful balance grounded enough for skeptics but open-hearted enough for spiritual seekers. The chapters build on one another, forming a cohesive picture of healing and transformation through the connected layers of self.
Readers who have felt stuck in habits or narratives that no longer serve them will appreciate this book as it acts as a toolkit for change. It invites us to stop reacting to life and to start consciously co-creating it.
