Welcome, dear one. Iām so glad you found your way here. Iām Shawni, an Ayurvedic Digestive Health Specialist and Mind-Body Coach, here to help you come home to your body
My work lives at the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern healing, weaving Ayurveda with hypnotherapy, and nervous system support to create transformation that goes all the way down to the root.
My path into healing began with yoga teacher training, which cracked something open in me. That led to energy healing, then life coaching, where I discovered NLP and hypnotherapy and the profound power of working with the mind. Then deeper still into the body through Shiatsu, learning to listen to what the body holds in silence. And then Ayurveda found me in 2015, and everything came together. Here was a complete system, one that honored the body, the mind, the rhythms of nature, and the intelligence woven through all of it. Looking back, every step was leading me toward the same thing ~ the root.
Digestion became my specialty, because Iāve seen again and again that when the gut heals, everything shifts, energy, clarity, mood, the stories we tell about ourselves. But healing the body is only part of the work. Alongside Ayurveda, I use hypnotherapy to help clients uncover and repattern the unconscious beliefs quietly shaping their relationship with food, their body, and themselves.
My own journey deepened after becoming a mother, it led me to my guru and a daily kriya yoga practice that anchored me into a more embodied, intentional way of living. That inner sanctuary changed everything. Now itās what Iām most passionate about helping others build.
My belief is simple: healing doesnāt have to be complicated. Small shifts, done with intention and consistency, create profound change. Iām here to walk that path with you through body | mind and flowing into every area of your life.
