Kapwa Wellness is such a wonderfully welcoming space. I've been able to attend several sound baths…read moreso far and I can say that I always leave feeling better than when I arrive. They offer two sessions for sound baths a week in the early evenings on Wednesdays and Fridays. While I am not local to the area, it is definitely worth the drive out. I've brought a couple friends with me recently and they also expressed how relaxing the sound bath was and how it was just what they needed. Also unlike some other sound baths I've attended, Kapwa Wellness has the space all set up for each attendee. They provide not only the yoga mat, but also a blanket, bolsters, and also yoga blocks that help with the comfort and the experience of the sound baths. While I can't always come as often as I'd like, coming back always feels like a haven for me - especially during the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. Can't wait for my next visit! If you're thinking about visiting or trying out a sound bath for yourself I'd say do it. You have nothing to lose but everything to gain. (Also if that's not your cup of tea quite yet, they also host other uplifting and educational workshops and also Qi Gong sessions! I haven't had the chance to try out these other offerings yet, but hoping to be able to in the near future.)

Before working with Apaar, I had experience with talk therapy but had never tried hypnosis. I've…read morefound it to be an incredibly enlightening and transformative experience. Through memory exploration and visualization exercises, Apaar helped me uncover emotional dynamics in my family that had been affecting me in ways I wasn't even aware of. The way I thought about certain relationships began to shift even after one session. At our first meeting, Apaar immediately made me feel welcomed and comfortable. As we talked, it quickly became clear that she is an active listener who keenly picks up on important details and asks brave questions that get to the heart of what you are expressing. Her method is gentle and comforting, without compromising on honesty and focus. Her genuine concern for and connection to the vulnerable moments I share makes me feel truly seen, and prepared to face difficult obstacles I had been avoiding. I highly recommend Awaken Life Hypnosis to anyone seeking healing, and look forward to continuing my work with Apaar!

Apaar and Awaken Life Hypnosis are an excellent addition to any self-care regimen. The value was…read moreimmense and the customer experience is phenomenal! This was the first hypnotherapist I have ever attended. If you have never been hypnotized, this is a great place to try it out. Sessions begin with a relaxed conversation about yourself, past and present. That conversation expands into shorter exercises and mini-hypnosis. Then the session culminates in the 'main event' at the end. The therapist is extremely kind, present, and engaged (super important qualities for this type of work). You will not regret booking a session. I highly, highly recommend it.

We also made an appointment to have Maria come over our home for a home clearing. She's incredibly spiritually attuned to her surroundings and energy. As she walked through some of the rooms in our home, she stated some interesting facts unknown to her and she was spot on. We were speechless. She's such a radiant soul and we felt such peace in her presence. She's professional, warm, personable and truly amazing!

I'm sharing this because I wish I found someone like Casey sooner…read more I've had two sessions so far, and both were deeply personalized and exactly what I needed. In the first session, we revisited childhood memories and worked on rewriting the emotional experience I carried as a child, especially not being able to understand why my parents were busy and working (even though they were doing their best with what they knew). We ended with a chakra rebalancing meditation that helped my nervous system settle in a way I didn't expect. The second session focused on my recent grief and the patterns it has been triggering in my relationships. Casey guided me through an imagery meditation where I practiced giving myself the love, safety, and security I've been trying to find externally, and leaving the pain in the past where it belongs. It felt like emotional closure, but also like learning a new way to care for myself. Casey truly feels like a walking hug. She's present, loving, grounded, and radiant. I felt held the entire time, and I left feeling more supported than I've ever felt in a romantic relationship. The biggest gift is that she's helping me learn to provide that same compassion and safety to myself, and heal my codependency from the inside out. She has been one of the most profound people the universe has placed on my healing path. If you're considering working with her, I can't recommend her enough

We've never officially practiced yoga before, so we had no idea what we were doing but Casey was extremely patient, kind, and helpful, guiding us and assisting whenever we needed it. I loved how intimate the class felt. At times, we don't enjoy being around large groups, so the smaller, more personal setting made us feel at ease (and honestly, so much more present ). Casey's studio is incredibly comfortable and aesthetically pleasing, which created a calming and welcoming environment from the moment we walked in. I truly appreciated how kind and warm both Casey and her daughter were toward us. Their energy made us feel safe, welcomed, and comfortable to just be ourselves. The moment we got back into the car, my daughter kept asking if we were going to do this again and that alone says everything. This was such a special bonding experience for us, and we're so grateful to have shared our first yoga class here. We look forward to another class soon. Thank you so much !

You have to experience it for yourself in order to truly understand it. All I can say is that she has all these special touches that she adds to her practice thag makes it that more special.
