Welcome to the Sanctuary
I’m Nelya, Keeper of the Sanctuary. I am a Mother, women’s wellness guide, herbalist, yoga teacher, and ceremonialist.
I created the Sanctuary to serve as a sacred space for women to feel nourished, connected, and whole. At the Sanctuary, we work with ancestral lifestyle therapies like herbal medicine, energy healing, yoga, meditation, Ayurveda, and ceremonial gathering.
My purpose is to help clients reclaim their sovereign health while knowing they never have to do it alone. My current focus is empowering women as they walk through the continuum of bleeding, gestating, birthing, mothering and beyond. This work is informed by the ancient wise ways, my own life path, and connection to Mother Earth ࿓

{Testimonials}
“The Rooted program with Nelya changed my life. With her guidance, I was able to make the right choice to change my physically and emotionally debilitating career to one that I was always dreaming about! Nelya kept me accountable during weekly sessions and created customized morning routines, yoga sets, herbal supplements and healthy lifestyle practices. A few weeks into the program I started to feel a major improvement in my physical and emotional state - less stressed, better sleep, more active, eating well, and increased self-confidence. Nelya’s passion for this work shines through with her encouragement and constant support. I am forever grateful for the gift of living an aligned life and look forward to continue working with Nelya.” -N.K.
“Working with Nelya has changed more for me than I could have imagined - truly. I reached out to her because I’ve been interested in learning more about spirituality and breath work, and wanted to learn how I could incorporate meditation into my daily life. I struggled to hold myself accountable in past attempts, but working with Nelya was so much more than learning and accountability, although those are definitely pillars of her program. Nelya worked with me to identify some root issues, “blocks” to my overall wellness and happiness and tailored suggested meditations and teachings to me. Nelya helped distill the Wild West of holistic healing into bite size changes that I adapted into my daily life over time. I felt excited to chat with Nelya at each session. Nelya is never insistent on any approaches, and worked with me to find the best balance of what to incorporate into my life and when. I love the new baseline of wellness I have in my life and the tools I’ve learned with meditating, breath work, journaling, and diet. Nelya is never judgmental, always kind, and goes above and beyond to ensure her program is exactly what you need and working for you. I can’t thank her enough.” -L.B.
“The heart-led guidance I’ve received from Nelya and the energetic work she has done have left me transformed. By addressing my needs holistically across body, mind, and spirit, as well as customizing yoga sets for my unique needs, she drastically improved my overall wellbeing. I never knew how much external influences seeped into my wellbeing, from the food I was eating, to clutter in my home, to my disconnect with nature. I have never felt fully present in life until I worked with Nelya, who truly opened the door to my healthiest self.” -K.G.
