embodied wellness
Hi! I’m chelsey may, your wellness express empress. a bit about my journey…
I am a qualified Kundalini Yoga Teacher, Creative Facilitator, Writer, & Healing Catalyst. Educationally, I have a BA in Dramatic Arts (majoring in Writing and Applied Drama & Theatre), and an Honours Degree in Psychology. I have also undergone training in Circling & Authentic Relating, which compliments my skills in facilitation and teaching. I have facilitated and taught in a variety of settings including: correctional centers, schools, recovery centers, universities and safe parks with OVC’s (Orphaned & Vulnerable Children) and care workers.
My Journey has definitely been non-linear, moving from academia into more spiritual, symbolic & embodied practices of healing. These practices, of exploration and some deep study, include Tarot, African Shamanism, movement medicine, plant medicines ceremonies, Kahuna body work and Chi Nei Tsang massage. Each step that I have taken, through the above mentioned practices, has been invaluable to my healing and given me the strength to acknowledge my path in Service and Creativity. My spirit is called to a variety of practices and experiences as I am on a path of consistent Initiation.
Deepening into my spiritual path was acutely influenced (along with events leading up to this) by the trauma experienced when my step dad went missing in Rwanda in February 2018 . As heart breaking as it was, the situation was a type of initiation for me to step more fully onto my path.
With my academic, creative & spiritual tools I offer a variety of platforms (Kundalini Yoga, Burlesque Dance & Exploration, Tarot, Shadow Exploration & Bodywork) for people to heal, express, strengthen and live their highest potential. My path has also led me to creating products to enhance your journey. When it comes to healing, it’s not a one size fits all situation. Different people need different practices and possibly a combination thereof to break through blocks, make peace with their trauma and let go of the baggage. My mission is to guide you to trust yourself, your wisdom and the inner teacher within – I am very much FOR empowering you to follow your own guidance instead of giving your power away to forces outside of you. After all…everything you need is inside of you. We’re in an age where ancestral healing is being brought up for us to heal too, which can make the healing process that much more complex. The different platforms I offer aim to compliment this complexity so that you can express, heal, get well and BE WELL hence – WELLNESS EXPRESS!
