Hi, how do you do?

I’m Suya.

Once upon a time I was primarily a product of belief systems that limited my ability to step outside my comfort zone. I was trapped by my perception of past experiences and operating from unconscious and unhealthy emotional states (think: fear, shame and guilt).

I WAS EXISTING, ‘PLAYING IT SAFE’ AND DIDN’T KNOW HOW TO FIND ABUNDANCE, CREATIVITY OR FREEDOM.

I’m an attorney. I plan vacations in excel spreadsheets. Type A. Left brain….. so I didn’t start out with an interest in the healing arts or a career in personal transformation. But as I relentlessly worked my way up the corporate ladder, experienced the death of people and situations dear to me, and ingested an Amazonian plant brew one Valentine’s Day,

I AWAKENED TO THE REALIZATION THAT HEART BASED LIVING IS THE KEY TO HAPPINESS

and I wasn’t living that way - at all. I had been disconnected from my heart for a long time, and I didn’t even know it. It’s now been some time since my late quarter but early mid-life crisis ensued however, it was fantastically the start of my journey home; to rediscovering true wellness and

REDEFINING MY HUMAN POTENTIAL IN WAYS THAT I COULD NEVER HAVE DARED TO IMAGINE.

I began restructuring my safe and limiting beliefs, and vowed to start showing up with courage, love and authenticity, instead of fear based living. As a result, I took a massive jump with investing with my sister, for several years, in the construction and development of a personal growth retreat center in the Peruvian Amazon rainforest (read our story) alongside my corporate career. Some said I was taking a big risk, but for me it is an opportunity to finally realize my passion for others’ wellbeing by creating

A TRANSFORMATIONAL SPACE FOR PEOPLE TO INTENTIONALLY RE-CONNET WITH THEIR HEART AND HUMANITY.

It’s this same space that I hold on a one-to-one basis in my coaching practice, as well as our private retreats at Modern Ancient Sanctuary. Healthy human connection is key to finding a truly happy state, but it all depends on your relationship with yourself. I’m not your conventional life coach or therapist. If you want a different life you've got to get super comfortable with change - and sometimes big and painful changes too. If you are willing to maintain an open mind and epically commit to your development then I will support you to heal your consciousness and transform your life using a holistic approach because

THE MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT DO NOT OPERATE SEPARATELY.

IT IS A TRUE COMPLEX.

I employ a multi-disciplinary approach to goals and wellness. In addition to being a certified Neurolinguistics Programming (NLP) life coach, I’ve successfully completed various healing arts certifications, several diplomas and formal training including as a Bio-Energy Healing practitioner, Ayurveda Lifestyle and Nutrition consultant and Yoga teacher (Ashtanga, Yin and Kundalini). My communication is transparent and direct however, I will always meet you where you’re at with respect, compassion and kindness.

As an intuitive reader I effectively identify opportunities for healing and growth, and relate insights received from higher consciousness where appropriate and if interest in this arena is expressed. I was raised in a traditional Hindu family, and today I still retain the knowledge and belief in samsara (reincarnation) and karma (universal law of cause and effect) as a core part of my spiritual practice and teachings.

As a private yoga teacher I support you to connect with your life sustaining breath (pranayama), to develop presence, and ultimately discover union with a Higher Intelligence and your true divine nature. I tailor your yoga postures (asanas) based on your needs and goals. My coaching sessions provide unique meditative healing experiences (dhyana). I further support you to explore, and implement nutrition and lifestyle changes in line with the ancient practice of Ayurveda medicine and the laws of nature.

I have spent the last ten years healing and creating with the awe inspiring power of sacred medicines such as Ayahuasca, Iboga (including undertaking a traditional Bwiti initiation), Bufo, Kambo, Pyscilobin and San Pedro. I have successfully coached many clients through first time and repeated psychedelic use, including via private one-to-one and small group retreat programs, as well as micro-dosing programs, for the purpose of personal development, healing, creativity and spiritual growth.

I CAREFULLY BALANCE GOAL ORIENTATION WITH MATTERS OF THE HEART.

While my practice includes esoteric concepts such as ‘chakras’ (energy centers in the subtle body which have been used in ancient cultures as a diagnostic framework for mental, emotional and physical dis-ease), I’ve also spent nearly two decades in the corporate world, including 15 years in the financial industry where I have successfully led and managed international teams in London and NYC working for two of the world’s most prestigious global banks, therefore
