Hello, and welcome! My name is Dana, the heart and soul behind Embodied Mind Healing. I began my career in the healing arts as a Licensed Massage Therapist in 2014, after completing the 700-hour program at Colorado School of Healing Arts in Lakewood, Colorado. My massage style is highly intuitive, integrating traditional Swedish relaxation techniques with deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, basic sports massage, and polarity therapy.
Through my personal healing journey, I have discovered the importance of working with body, mind, and breath together in a holistic fashion in order to achieve and sustain inner and outer balance and harmony.
After massage school, I continued my education at Samadhi Center for Yoga and Meditation, where I completed the 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training and 50 hours of focused Yoga Nidra training with Jeremy Wolf. Yoga Nidra is my favorite practice to share and lead, although I also enjoy guiding mindfulflows, restorative yoga, breathwork, and kirtan.
I love serving a variety of people and groups and have worked in a variety of settings, including spas, wellness centers, schools, art and music festivals, private group retreats, nature retreats, yoga studios, and corporate workshops.
I began working with sound in 2018, when I met my mentors: Rodger Ruge, who taught me how to work with solfeggio frequency tuning forks, Mike Cohen, who taught me the art of kirtan, and Joe Donnellan, who taught me how to craft soundscape journeys for yoga classes and transformational breathwork ceremonies.
In 2022, I continued to evolve my practice by receiving the Level One and Two Reiki attunements through Jeremy Wolf and the Usui lineage, and decided to learn the art of Aquatic Bodywork through Watsu and Healing Dance instructor, Ahara Vatter, down in Santa Fe, NM.
After years of working near and with the water in the form of hot springs and sensory deprivation tanks, I am grateful and humbled to now bring the transformational power of water into a more active role with my bodywork and sound healing practice!

Passionate about integrative health and individualized care, I look forward to learning about your personal wellness goals and offering support however I can!
Every session is unique and catered specifically to you, so please share all special requests and feedback you may have directly with me before, during, and after your session.

I am a freelance therapist, now creating more opportunities for remote and virtual healing sessions.
I am dedicated to helping every individual find the care they need and recognize that I may not always be the right fit for every person and situation, so I will happily refer you to other qualified professionals as needed.

Thank you in advance for your trust and mutual support. ❤
