What people are saying

"I can't recommend working with Gris highly enough! Her wisdom, knowledge and experience allowed me to experience deep spiritual and emotional healing. She is a guide who can be trusted to compassionately and tenderly break through whatever barriers you have in your healing process. I only wish I had found her decades ago!"

"This is the most healing experience I've ever had. Such powerful leaders and a loving sisterhood. I was able to work through so much of my trauma and at the same time build new connections with beautiful souls.."

Sumere Mcleroy

Gris is a woman like few others. He manages to transport us to the depths of our soul and guides us with his calm and slow voice, transmitting us peace, that peace that we all seek and that is so difficult to find. Without a doubt, your guidance is transformative and healing. A privilege to be able to meet her and I will continue to do so. Wonderful experience. Thank you! -Nachy Amante

If we don't tend to the wound within ourselves, we're not gonna be able to open the heart to others. 

If we are on this earth we might have figured out that what we want and need is CONNECTION. To ourselves, to earth, and to others. To our 'loved ones'. But we cannot let anyone in unless we tend to our wounds. If we are hurt, (and most of us have been and carry unmet needs and pain inside of us) then we can not love freely. It's time to tend inwards and to the work. Yes, it can be difficult BUT... the good news is that it is way easier than living wounded and not opening our hearts to liberation and unconditional LOVE. I am here to support you on your self-healing journey.
