Growing up, I was always into weight lifting. Since I can remember, I was getting up early to hit the gym. Despite the countless years I spent doing this, my time in the gym never felt truly nourishing. Sure, it provided results, but my mind and soul were never fulfilled.

 

One day, I felt a strong pull to try yoga. From my very first class, I was obsessed-not just to the physical challenge of using muscles I’d never accessed before, but it helped me tune into my body, mind, and spirit in a way that nothing else ever had. After a few years of practicing yoga, I decided to travel to Bali to complete my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training, and to this day, it’s still one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I completely fell in love with learning about the body and how it responds to intentional movement and nourishment.

 

That’s where my deeper spiritual journey began. I started researching sound healing and its effects on the mind and body. The research convinced me to give it a try, so I participated in my first virtual sound bath. I had never done anything like it before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect-but the experience was profound. A few months later I went on to become certified in sound healing! 

 

Reiki entered my life during a period of emotional heaviness. I remember experiencing energy work for the first time and feeling a wave of release and clarity I’d never accessed before. That moment showed me how powerful energy healing can be and it felt like the next step to integrating all these healing practices into one cohesive offering.

 

What began as a personal journey evolved into a calling to hold space, guide, and support others in their own healing process.

 

That’s why I created Solaya Wellness—to share the transformational power of these practices. I want to show others that spiritual and holistic wellness aren't just checkboxes on a to-do list. It's a deeply personal journey. It’s about exploring different modalities and finding what truly resonates with you.
