Samara Healing & Awakening

Welcome, my friend. I'm so glad you've landed here in this corner of the internet.

Mission Statement

Samara is a guide, healer, and mentor for sincere seekers on their healing and awakening journeys. She has helped 100s of folks over the past 5 years deepen into their embodiment, heal and regulate the nervous system, expand consciousness, and cultivate spiritual and intuitive gifts. Samara Healing & Awakening exists to catalyze spiritual awakenings, liberate the mindbody from trauma + the confines of the small self, and support the process of Divine Embodiment.

In February 2020, Samara suddenly lost her vision due to an autoimmune response triggered by unprocessed trauma. This event sparked a profound spiritual awakening, prompting her to leave a misaligned job and relationship and confront years of trauma, including deep wounds from childhood and an abusive college relationship, which led to a CPTSD diagnosis, eating disorders, addiction, anxiety, depression, and disconnection from her body and soul. Within a week, she founded her first business, "Shelby Sweats," where her love of supporting women began.

Samara embarked on a healing journey, practicing many modalities and transitioning from personal training to spiritual and trauma healing. In 2021, she moved to Sedona, deepening her practice through daily devotion and inner work.

One of her gifts is rapid transformation, transmutation + alchemy. Clients often report that a few months of working with her brings more healing than years of therapy. Samara provides a grounded, open, and clear support field, particularly for those spiritually oriented or on the Spiritual Path, especially women who have experienced sexual trauma. Another gift is that of clarity and clear vision.


Her work assists others in embodying their bodymind + direct experience, purifying and healing the nervous system, and developing spiritual and intuitive gifts. She works with the many modalities that transformed her own life— embodiment work, relational healing containers, women's work, expanded state work, meditation, somatic release breathwork, Reiki + energy work, hands-on healing, and somatics. She has worked with 100s of souls since 2020 in 1:1 containers, virtual containers, educational courses, healing memberships, 1:1 in-person work, group in-person work, ceremony, retreats, and events.

While she doesn't associate with any specific lineage, she has been deeply influenced by the Vajrayana teachings of Tibetan Buddhism, the Gods + Goddesses of the Hindu pantheon, particularly Shiva, Shakti, Kali Ma; And Christ Consciousness, the Seraphim, and the Marys.

Now based in the Quiet Corner of Connecticut, you can find Samara living a devotional life working intimately with clients throughout the East Coast and beyond.
