Hi, I'm Shaia

I've been in private practice for 17+ years and have gone through an insane amount of trainings.

These are just some of the certifications and longer courses of study I've completed.

  • Holistic Nutrition Consultant

  • Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition

  • Women's Herbal Educator

  • Certified BodyTalk Practitioner

  • PaRama Practitioner

  • Soul Realignment Practitioner

  • Master Akashic Healer


I began in the nutrition world and went deep into:

Functional Nutrition - Clinical Nutrition - NeuroNutrient Therapy - WAPF - Western Herbalism - Functional Blood Chemistry - Hair Mineral Analysis - Muscle Testing - Nutrition Response Testing - Morphogenic Field Technique - and so many other weekend trainings and regular study groups. I also completed a kitchen apprenticeship - and taught workshops and classes locally.


From there - I expanded into a wide variety of topics - some more deeply than others:

Energy Medicine - Human Design - Astrology - Sacred Geometry - Consciousness Healing - Epigenetics - Weight + Metabolism - Reiki - Theta Healing - Sound Healing - MindScape - EmRes - Fascial Energetics - BodyIntuitive - BioGeometry - Anatomy & Physiology - Spirit + Divine - BodyTalk for Animals - Psychic Development - 5D - Quantum Healing - and so many more.


I also designed and taught 2 different year long spirituality training programs and as you know - if you want to learn: teach.


And aside from allll of this, I've trained in non-topical studies that have been instrumental in how I see the world, weave modalities together, work in layers, across dimensions, and understand neuroflexibility.

  • Avid Media Composer Video Editor (non-linear editing)

  • Graphic Design Certification - Sessions.edu

  • Graduation Certification in Aspergers Studies - Elms College

  • ...plus I got my BA studying in Israel for college


So um. yah. I've been there. And done that.

But it wasn't until I stopped that everything changed.

And now it's time for a breakdown...


Everything written above is absolutely true - and conveys years of trying to heal myself.

Trying to change my life - to make things better - to feel better.

After so much childhood trauma - abuse - abandonment. After divorce, and ptsd, and health crises.

After moving across the country - going back to school - raising a kid on my own - while working full time - and struggling to just survive but knowing I wanted better than what I'd had. What I knew.


After all of that - I still didn't quite know who I was and why I still felt an ache inside for more.


I spent years being who I was supposed to be - and doing what I was supposed to do.

And none of it got me to where I knew inside I had to go.


So in 2025 I did something I had never done before:

I Stopped.


Stopped trying to figure things out.

Or to fix - change - heal - make sense of - do - or understand.

I stopped trying to be in control and I sat down on my couch and let myself fall. the. fck. apart.


I didn't know it then - but this was the beginning of everything.


What I found was that all of the voices that had been telling me what to do, or try, or work on were all voices from outside of myself -

When I stopped, and let myself collapse in the non-doing, I was doing the one thing I had been taught to never do. The one thing that every voice agreed was the wrong thing to do.

Stop.


Most of us live our entire lives in distraction or avoidance - doing for everyone else - and never stopping long enough to actually hear ourselves think, nonetheless know what we truly want.


Stopping is the revolutionary act that breaks the conditioning that says "I am only worthy if I do something" - or more viscerally "I'm the fck up and I have to fix it."


When you face that - you break the chokehold it has on your identity.

And then you can be free to begin discovering who you actually are.


It's the mechanism that has re-aligned my entire life.


I've changed more in one year of RITUALS than I did in dozens of programs and trainings over 17+ years.


All of my programs, sessions, immersives, and offerings are designed to take you on the same journey - to find yourself, meet yourself, and know yourself so that you can discover who you actually are - and change your life too.


And it all starts, by stopping.
