Hello and welcome to Awaken Healing!
For over 20 years, I’ve been honored to support individuals on their healing journey through a compassionate blend of energy healing, intuitive guidance, and holistic wellness. Each session with me is thoughtfully tailored to meet you where you are, helping restore balance and nurture the mind, body, and spirit.
Awaken Healing Holistic Wellness Studio was created in 2024 from a vision of bringing holistic healing and community together under one roof. More than just a wellness studio, it is a sanctuary where people can relax, learn, grow, and feel supported on their unique path to well-being.
In addition to my own services, Awaken Healing is home to a community of holistic practitioners offering massage therapy, yoga, Reiki, skincare, workshops, pop-up events, along with a carefully curated wellness shop filled with meaningful gifts and self-care essentials.
Whether you’re joining us for a healing session, attending a class, shopping for something special, or simply stopping by to say hello, I hope you’ll feel welcomed, inspired, and at peace the moment you walk through our doors.
I invite you to explore all that Awaken Healing has to offer and become part of our growing wellness community. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your journey toward greater balance, healing, and well-being.
Peace & Light,
Shannen
