Welcome, dear one. I’m Shawni, an Ayurvedic Digestive Health Specialist and Mind-Body Coach, and I’m so glad you found your way here.

My work lives at the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern healing, weaving Ayurveda, hypnotherapy, and nervous system support into transformation that goes all the way to the root.

Where It Began

My path began in 2003 with yoga teacher training, which cracked something open in me. That led to energy healing, life coaching, NLP, and hypnotherapy, then deeper still into the body through Shiatsu. Ayurveda found me in 2015, and everything came together. Here was a complete system honoring body, mind, and the rhythms of nature. Looking back, every step was leading me deeper into the body’s own wisdom.

Why Digestion

Digestion became my specialty because I’ve seen it again and again: when the gut heals, everything shifts. Energy, clarity, mood, the stories we tell about ourselves. This is especially true in perimenopause, when the body’s needs change quickly and quietly, and most women don’t realize digestion is at the center of it all. I use Ayurveda alongside hypnotherapy to help clients uncover and repattern the unconscious beliefs shaping their relationship with food, their body, and themselves.

Why This Work, Why Now

I am in this phase of life myself. I hear the call of the women around me, and I know how much it matters to have someone who understands this terrain. My belief is simple: healing doesn’t have to be complicated. Small shifts, done with intention and consistency, create profound change.

If you’re ready to begin, I’d love to walk that path with you.

My Personal Journey with Kriya Yoga Initiations

"We all have the potential to live in blissfulness and inner wellbeing – if only we create the right kind of climate within ourselves." ~SG

Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya (Inner Engineering)

Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya is a yogic practice from the Isha tradition that combines meditation and specific breathing techniques. It’s taught through the Inner Engineering program and draws from the classical path of Raja Yoga.

This practice follows a precise sequence that helps calm the mind, balance the body, and turn your focus inward.

Benefits include:

  • Reduced stress and anxiety

  • Improved focus and mental clarity

  • Greater self-awareness

  • Better heart health, often reducing or eliminating the need for medications for issues like high blood pressure, depression, and menstrual imbalances

Inner Engineering is more than just a technique—it’s a process for inner transformation. It helps you see life, work, and the world with a new perspective while improving health, energy, and overall success.

Bhuta Shuddhi

Bhuta Shuddhi means “purification of the elements.” In yogic science, everything—including the human body—is made of five elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space. This practice works to cleanse and balance those elements within you.

As Sadhguru explains: “Bhuta Shuddhi is about removing everything you have built up, so the Creator’s creation can rise and shine within you.”

Benefits include:

  • Restores harmony and balance in the body and mind

  • Prepares the system to handle higher levels of energy

  • Enhances physical, mental, and energetic strength

  • Lays the foundation for mastery over your inner system

Surya Kriya

Surya Kriya is an ancient practice designed to activate the solar energy within you. The word “Surya” means sun and “Kriya” means inner process. By energizing the solar plexus, this practice increases vitality, balances your system, and steadies the mind.

Benefits include:

  • Builds mental clarity and focus

  • Strengthens weak constitutions

  • Boosts energy and vitality

  • Balances hormones

  • Provides a strong foundation for meditation and inner growth
