Yo. It’ me, Shanila.

I’m the Founder of Flow Breathwork Facilitator Training and The Healing Arts Academy, best-selling author of Breathe, a 4th generation sound healer, women’s researcher, national speaker, and host of a Top 6 podcast, The Playground, a community for healers and healing.

Say hello to a world where you don’t have to do it alone. You don’t have to shy away from embracing that there is so much out there we just can’t use our linear, logical minds for. We have to tap into our gut, our intuition, and our heart, to fully understand that there is so much out there that is beyond us, and we are meant to embody our greatest purpose.

Trust me, after nearly 12 years in tech and women’s research, I navigated a world where the scientist and the mystic in me had finally met each other. My whole life, I was attuned to energy, talking to plants, spirits, lucid dreaming, astral travel, and much more while fully embracing science, but never found safety, confidence, or support to actually embody it. It took burnout and complete un-alignment in all aspects of my life for me to come back to me.

I'm the creatrix of The Healing Arts Academy, where I train sound healers, breathwork facilitators, and mentor aspiring healers in the healing arts! I created my studio to be your friendly guide towards your self discovery and mystic journey. 

I support you to ignite the embodied healer within you - the one that knows exactly what to do, how to heal, and use your intuition towards your highest good - in life, in relationships, and your soul aligned missions, so that you can make your impact for others. I’m particularly interested in helping BIPOC healers hone their crafts and close wellness gaps in our communities. In the past years, I’ve supported 1000s to do the same through my programs, mentorships, and trainings, and am one of the first to receive grants from the State of California to bring holistic healing such as sound and breathwork to clinical populations. I’ve implemented programs in women’s shelters, veteran’s legions, and underserved school populations. I thrive in supporting conscious healers ready to put in the real embodied work for their collective.

So many of us are taking ourselves way too seriously now-a-days; it’s time to have fun and embody our highest selves. Ready to play?
