My name is Nashina (nuh-she-na). I'm so glad you landed here. My joy is supporting folks uncover how life experiences and systems can shape the body, patterns, behaviours and ways we relate to ourselves and each other. We can become entangled in webs of shame, judgment, guilt that exhaust us - keep us feeling stuck. There are ways to detangle those webs and start to tap into something new - something generative. I work in a warm, flexible, and non-judgmental way, honoring each person’s pace and path toward deepe self-awareness, healing, resilience, and well-being. And, I don't mind a little humour and levity along the way!

You learn to notice how stress and history live in the body, creating space for ease and presence. You'll explore recurring habits or reactions and build skill to make conscious choices instead of reacting automatically. Creating space for more freedom in thought, feeling, and action. You learn to to trust joy, rest and connection as healing medicine.

“To what and to whom are you committed? What do you long for? And what is worth traveling through the unknown to reach?” ― Prentis Hemphill, What It Takes to Heal: How Transforming Ourselves Can Change the World I feel deeply honored to be a small part of your journey. Look forward to hearing from you.
