I started working with Shara in 2019. I committed to 6 months of coaching/sessions with her because I knew I needed to heal some stuff relating to my mom, and I wanted to feel less stressed and overwhelmed with my business. I was also hoping to manifest some things in my life. From the very first session, she could really see what was blocking me from achieving what I wanted. She's incredibly intuitive, and every session with her, I felt more and more in tune with myself. We channeled my mom, and I can honestly say that in one hour with Shara, I was able to confront what years of grief hadn't been able to erase. We've finished our sessions, and I feel a freedom of spirit I can't even describe. I've totally up-leveled as a person. I'm calm and clear in my decision-making. I don't blame myself for anything anymore. I've healed all issues with my mother. AND I was able to manifest my dream home within 2 months of working with her, literally out of thin air. Now, I've been able, with Shara's guidance, to develop my own intuition and psychic abilities and step into my greater purpose on this planet. I can't wait to see what the future holds, and I look forward to continueing to work with Shara! read more

I called upon Shara Ogin who I met briefly at a meeting for the first time, 2 days before I was to meet with my oncologist regarding a lump in my right pelvis area. Shara Ogin, Holistic Pain Specialist, Intuitive Healer and Life Coach made herself available for a session with me; I was obviously in great distress. So I was amazed at how our short introduction had been so fortuitous​ in the results that occurred. Having had a fairly good process of chemo treatment, considered the "poster child" for how well the chemo had gone, and the oncologist very happy with the results, I was upset to be confronted with a lump in my right pelvis just 8 months after my last chemo requiring a cat scan. Shara in our session immediately and effortlessly had an accurate picture of the state of my early childhood wound, and how it was showing up now to be healed. Let me add, I have never had a healing treatment from anyone, but I needed help, and here was Shara. Turns out I didn't have to believe anything to have the healing process be underway. Shara said the healing would be happening in the 48 hours that followed my session with her. It turns out she was totally accurate. Exactly 42 hours later I was in my Oncologist office as he read the cat scan from the day before. When he gave an exam, he could not feel or find the area where my acupuncturist of 40 years and a week later, my primary physician had found and measured. The lump in the right pelvis was gone. This was consistent with the fact that that morning I woke up at 6 refreshed, out of fear and anxiety, feeling up and ready for the oncology visit. The only intervening factor was the healing session with Shara. I feel so fortunate that Shara appeared in my life right when I needed her. I​ never would have found her, and that's why I'm writing this review. When you need to find the way to take your health on, where do you go? I recommend Shara Ogin. Shara has set me on the path of continuing my work with her in owning my healing. I rate her as a spectacular woman to work with, an excellent professional Intuitive Healer. I felt her Feldenkrais expertise and Holistic Pain Specialist knowledge inform her work as she is highly competent in her assessments and reading. Today I left my Oncologist office with my grateful son and husband and no lump, and no discernable disease to be followed up on. Thank you, Shara. read more

I had the good fortune of discovering Shara through a body, mind, spirit blog. We set up a time to talk and discuss what my intentions and goals for working with her would be. I had recently lost my partner to a sudden heart attack and was in a very depressed state. Through our sessions, I was able to start the journey of healing. She was able to guide me onto higher ground. Once there, we started working on some old patterns and outdated thinking that was also rooted in my thinking and my energy. After each session, I felt better and better. Her help was integral to self healing and discovering parts new parts of myself. We worked on healing to setting new goals and to being really clear about my present self and my future. I am truly grateful for my experience with Shara. She is a wonderful person, truly gifted healer and now a friend. Thank you Shara! read more

I have seen Shara for over six months and have participated in her group Life Transformation program as well as had individual sessions with her. She is a highly gifted intuitive who cares deeply about her clients and really knows how to get to the core issues of the individual. Shara has been a source of great support during my process of transformation--providing guidance, energy healing, various intuitive modalities such as past life regression, as well as tools and exercises to practice on my own. I have found her big heart, skillfulness, dedication and generosity to be exceptional and am deeply grateful for the growth I've experienced under her coaching! read more

I started seeing Shara a few months after suffering a concussion during a car accident. I can sum up my experience with one word "Transformation". After a few visits I was pain free and didn't have to rely on pain medication anymore. My vertigo symptoms improved, and my energy returned. I learned that some of my physical symptoms were not only connected to the accident but also to my emotional state and the way I was raised. It made the mind and body connection real for me. My depressive mood disappeared, and I started feeling happy and excited about life again. Shara changed my life in a way I never thought possible and I'm truly grateful for all she has done for me. Anja W. read more

I've been working with Shara since the beginning of Shelter In Place. I thought it would be the perfect time to work on my "stuff". From our first session, I was completely in shock about her ability to see what's blocking me. Her background in Feldenkrais has help me work through my physical pain as well. I would highly recommend Shara for those ready to seek change in their lives. read more

Shara offers a really palpable experience. I could feel energies shifting as we were in our session. I'm very intuitive and seldom reach out for this sort of support, but for powerful experiences and questions, I find that her insights were good affirmations and provided greater clarity and insights into my most pressing questions and circumstances. I highly recommend Shara to anyone who wants deeply intuitive and visionary support. read more

I was feeling stuck in a certain area of my life and I wasn't sure what to do or how to proceed. I am in the healing arts and am also a coach so I believe in seeking out help when needed. I have never tried psychic readings before so I wanted to give it a try. I was recommended to see Shara by a friend so I did. I was pleasantly surprised and found my session useful because it helped me see things that I myself did not see. Now for the integration part..... Thank you Shara! read more

My sessions with Shara have introduced me to a whole new world. She helped me dive into the depths of myself and my soul, have discovered parts of myself that have been dormant and hidden away for years. My whole dynamic has shifted because once the mask of who I thought i knew got shifted it opened up the possibility for me to see and get in touch with the beauty I had in me. I am living in love and can't wait to heal myself and offer healing to others in a form that is connected to my essence. Her presence, her way of being is truthful, deep and loving. I could not have asked for a better guide and teacher! read more

If you're reading this, you're likely looking for some spiritual help or are curious about the spiritual world. I'll start with the pros. I will say it was helpful to do past life regressions and be shown some techniques to deal with childhood trauma that I had. Some techniques like cord cutting are variations of what you can find online for free, but I think she did a better job of doing those when you worked with her. Those sessions were definitely positive. If you're interested in doing those then cool, but just check out her pricing to see for yourself if paying $150-$200 a session (sold in packages of multiple sessions) is worth it for you. To be honest, by the end of our work together I felt very used by Shara and my energy returned only after I called this behavior out to her. Every session she either tried to upsell me things (like herbal supplements she gets credit for) or asked me to help her with tasks that eventually I saw were to help build her business for free. This included asks to leave great reviews, watch her Youtube channel to drive up views, leave her feedback edits on her homework documents, etc. I found that almost everything she offered extra to help me had strings attached. In our sessions, she'd usually begin by asking if I saw the videos, and then ask if I had left a thumbs up, or made a comment, or subscribed. She even asked me to be in one of her training videos, again, for free. I wonder if the other people leaving reviews here on Yelp did so on their own, or if she constantly asked them to until they gave in. It just seemed like for every "nice" thing she wanted to give to you, she wanted something in return- usually, free labor. At first, I would be nice and do these things for her, but eventually the constant asking of things grew to resentment that even she could feel. She even called this out a couple of times. Yet, she still kept asking. There's more, but I'll leave it for now. Those moments definitely offset the positives I got out of our sessions. It got so awkward and draining at the end that I couldn't even bring myself to do our last session together. I wrote her an email to point out this behavior. She offered to do an extra session on top of the last one pro bono to try and repair the relationship. I told her I didn't trust her enough to do that. She offered to return some of my money... only after my last check is cashed (dated for 2 weeks from now). I found that to be pretty odd. Eventually I asked for some of my money refunded immediately, but then I decided to let her keep it, so I could write this review with a clear conscience. Mind you, I just got laid off from my job during a pandemic in one of the worst job markets in US history, and so any funds would have been helpful. I'm giving that up. FYI, our sessions totaled $4000+. As for me, I have mixed feelings about the whole experience. While I found a majority of our sessions to be helpful (and also... this is the reason I paid so much for them), it definitely came at this cost. I also have seen other healers here and there throughout my life but not anyone consistently until Shara, so I don't have anyone to compare her to. Anyway, judge for yourself. I don't hold any grudges against Shara personally, and wish her the best. I'm hoping this was my individual experience and that others do not share it. read more

Shara has an incredible way of combining various techniques to help a person. Ive seen how intuitive she is and how she gets into the heart of negative beliefs and ways to transform them. She goes above and beyond in sessions and has always been available for a check-in when questions arise. I randomly found her during a talk she had given and knew right away how good she was. When you know, you know. She has lead me through several transitions and has a wonderful book that is a great reference to use in between sessions as well. It's a blessing to know her and I only wish her the utmost success as she continues to evolve her practice and hope that many more people are able to find her guidance and healing energy helpful too. read more

Run, don't walk to sign up for a session with Shara! I am so grateful for her intuitive insights into the tension I have been holding for years in my chest, back, neck and shoulders for the past 5 decades! She is a gifted Feldenkrais practitioner, occupational therapist and intuitive. I have already benefited so much from just one session and I look forward to the next one. Tracey- San Jose read more

My first session with Shara was so impactful. She relieved my tension immediately but most importantly I left with tools on how to do it on my own when needed. She reads more than the body, by sharing her holistic view I left with a better sense of connection to my body and my emotions. I highly recommend her. Her wisdom and experience are so valuable. Thank you Shara. read more

Shara is great! She does amazing bodywork that really helped me with my carpal tunnel arm pain. I've never been to a one-on-one treatment like this before so I was a little uncertain. She just knows so much about the body and I think that really helps with these things. I also liked that we spent some time talking about my relationships since she does personal coaching. It was a really nice experience and the balance is great. I think she's really going to help me with these issues. She is also an occupational therapist fyi. read more

I had my first intuitive session with Shara and it was just fabulous. She has a real knack for reading issues and providing solutions.

Shara tuned into my soul and psyche, and gave me great information. Both of my parents died less than 18 months ago, and Shara immediately picked up on their energy around me. It was profoundly moving and comforting. Shara's intuition is practical and user-friendly. I highly recommend her services. read more

I had an intuitive reading/clearing with Shara at just the perfect moment. I'm upleveling my business and life, and naturally coming up against some old patterns. Shara was able to quickly see what was going on, give me great insight and clear a whole bunch of stagnant, uncomfortable energy out! I felt the clearing right away, and the feeling of being calm and grounded only increased throughout the day. Shara is someone I will return to for this kind of sensitive, powerful support! read more

Shara has been an instrumental part of my journey. I was a part of Shara's Love Manifestation Workshop which was a meaningful experience to gain a fresh perspective of what kind of love I want in my life. I love her holistic approach in dealing with so many areas of life such as chakras, healthy eating, and integrating mindful morning routine rituals. I believe that Shara's talent will lead her to present on a global stage. read more

I traveled to attend Shara and Jordan's President's Day retreat of Feldendrais and Sound healing. I learned a great deal about Feldenkrais Method of mindfulness. It is an amazing tool I now use everyday to allow my mind and body to stay in sync. I also had a one on one session with her that was very intuitive, peaceful, dynamic, and freeing. She is an amazing coach with a fun spirit and amazing intuition. She is 100% worth it! read more

I have had two psychic reading sessions with Shara in the past 6 months, the first in January and the second a couple of days ago. Both experiences were very powerful and healing. Her intuition was so spot on at different moments that I would end up laughing or crying in response. I am so grateful to have crossed paths with Shara and I intend to do many more sessions with her in the future! Thank you so much for doing this work! read more

I had a Feldenkrais session a few days ago for back pain and shoulder pain. Her unique ability to integrate multiple modalities makes her treatment more impactful. I have had chronic back pain for over two years, and shoulder pain for over 10 years. After the first session I was able to stop taking my pain medication for my back. And I am able to sleep on my shoulder for the first time in 10 years. read more

Shara is a deeply empathetic practitioner and healer--she is highly professional yet completely accessible and warm hearted. I came away from a weekend of several Feldenkrais sessions feeling rejuvenated and relaxed, and having clarity to return to work. I was able to pass on to my co-workers the information I had learned from her teaching. I am sure it will help us in the practice of occupational therapy and hand therapy. read more

Shara is my go to practitioner when I have pain in my body. I have had to battle crippling scoliosis, migraines, out of place ribs, sports injuries, and back pain. No matter what, I leave Shara feeling pain free in about 60 min! it is a miracle! The way she can integrate her psychic skills, reiki healing, and feldenkrais is a unique take on holistic health. I recommend Shara to anyone looking to leave pain in the past! Keep up the great work Shara!!! read more

This is a review for Shara Ogin and her Feldenkrais body work. I just had a session with Shara a couple of days ago to address some back tension I'd been experiencing as a result of working at the computer. After she worked on my right side I noticed my upper body felt looser and more expansive, so it was easy to tell the difference during the session. Most notably, she also worked to alleviate some muscle tension/knots I felt in my arm which my previous CMT was unable to do. I felt soo relaxed afterward and recommend Shara for targeted, effective pain relief and muscle relaxation! read more

Shara's touch is amazing. Throughout my life I have never enjoyed massage much but this is different. Shara asked me to walk forward across the room and pointed out inconsistencies in my gait. Then she touched me for an hour. It felt unbelievable and afterwards my gait was even and my whole body felt lighter. Sign me up again. All the pain in my lower back is gone. read more

My session with Shara was incredible. Shara is devoted to her craft and committed to helping the community. Her approach is holistic. She has a gift in diagnosing the key issues and works patiently with you to aid in getting you back to balance. My Feldenkrais treatment with her, left me feeling relaxed, at ease and 10 years younger! With one session, I was energized and calm. She was extremely accurate with the psychic reading as well. She was quicky able to see what was in the way and suggested an actionable & simple plan that can aid in my wellbeing. Overall, I was delighted with the one session and am definitely going to continue seeing her. She is authentic, gives her all to you and can effectively guide you to a healthy happy place. A visit with her is well worth it! read more

I first went to Shara for feldenkrais and healing during pregnancy and she helped bring my physical body into alignment and ease the pain of carrying a 10 llb baby. She also began sharing her intuition insights and she is great at identifying what is really holding me back and helps creates a space to find solutions for my growth and forward movement! She is full of knowledge and techniques for physical, emotional and energetic healing. I've been fortunate enough to experience her presence in person and remotely for many years. read more

I went to Shara because I had experienced a neorological condition in my face a few weeks before that was still present for me. She did some exercises with me, some feldenkrais and some massage. I was really impressed by how I left feeling more relaxed, specifically in the area where I still had symptoms and how she was able to make the connection from tighness around my mouth to my stomach and left me with some exercises to practice. She seems really knowledgable. I would see her again. read more

I saw Shara 7 months after back surgery. After watching me walk, she showed me a few specific exercises to improve my gait, which helped immediately. She followed with some bodywork which loosened stiff joints and left my back feeling great. I'll be back. Shara knows her stuff, has a great touch and offers a different approach to healing than doctors, chiropractors and CMTs. read more

'Walking on air' is how I describe the feeling I get following a Feldenkrais session with Shara. It's incredible how such a gentle touch can have such a monumental impact. I primarily started to explore Feldenkrais due to lower back pain yet even when I do not have any injuries; I find the sessions to be extremely powerful and beneficial, both physically and mentally. It's rare to experience such a change in one's body in a short period of time (literally after 1 session) and differs in a very positive way from other therapies, where one may need to withstand intense deep tissue pain to achieve such an outcome. I feel taller, on the outside and on the inside, after each session and highly recommend trying it - you will be amazed! read more

A friend recommended Shara to me, and I am so so grateful she did! Shara has an extraordinary way of getting right to the core of what is going on, so blocks can be addressed and released. It took but a moment for her to really pinpoint the root of feelings that I have struggled with for years! She also sees the big picture of how each area of our lives are interconnected- how the limitations and fears that I was bringing into my work life, would seep into my romantic relationships, family dynamics, and everything else. After one session with Shara, I literally felt a lightness and clarity that is only achieved when you finally GET IT and can move past the patterns and barriers that have been holding you back so you can make new choices in the future. She is an incredibly talented coach and healer and I cannot recommend her enough! If you want to make some real shifts- Shara is AMAZING! read more

After an initial consultation where we reviewed my medical and emotional issues I felt confident in Shara and her understanding of physiology, anatomy, and psychology regarding functions of the mind, body and spirit. She used her knowledge of the Feldenkrais Method and Occupational Therapy to work through every area of my body. She was able to completely energize my system and create a feeling of deep relaxation and lightness. After the session she counseled me on how to become more grounded and regain my sense of inner strength and balance. read more

I recommend Shara to anyone who wants to work through their issues and have a better life. She helped me work through some current goals and decisions and was a wonderful guide through that process. read more

If I could give Shara more than 5 stars I would. My brother was in a coma and Shara did a session with myself and him and helped me understand why he was in the condition he was in. He had been completely comatose until her session, however he cried when Shara mentioned intimate details about his life and why he was in pain. She helped myself and my Mother connect with him in a way we never had before and truly understand who he was. When he transitioned to his next phase this past week, Shara helped me understand why he chose this path and has helped me heal greatly. I couldn't recommend her more!! She is absolutely amazing! read more

Every single session I have with Shara takes me deeper to a healing that I could never have accessed in any other way. I have tried lots of healing modalities, but Shara is uniquely talented in the techniques she chooses to use on me in our healing sessions. She will tailor a session for you and you only. She does not do cookie-cutter type of work - it is unique to you and she will remember your issues and circle back to other sessions with you so that they all build on each other. Her poweful clairvoyant abilities come into play even if that is not the sole purpose of our session, so that different angles into a problem or an apporach are illuminated. At the end of every session I feel a hundred times better than I did before the session, even if I am resistant to some of my issues coming up in or before the session -- she does very deep work that will change your life. Shara has helped me recognize and then change deep-seated patterns that have been holding me back in life. You will not regret a session with her! She is committed to her clients, will be flexible with you, and she is very open to feedback as well. read more

Right from the beginning, I knew I was in good hands. Shara did a thorough assessment of how I was holding and using my body. Everything she said was in total alignment with where I had been feeling pain and discomfort. She then began the treatment which was tremendously relaxing and healing. After I felt like million bucks! I felt like I was moving in a balenced and aligned way for weeks after! Nothing short of amazing! read more

I took a 2-hr workshop on the Feldenkrais method with Shara and felt so relaxed afterwards. For somebody that is in my head a lot, she was able to guide me into better body relaxation (yes, very obvious results it's seriously magic). She gave us the right amount education and background that was helpful to inspire the work and her instructions are very clear and easy to understand. I can only imagine what working 1-on-1 with her is like and am seriously considering to attend her retreat. read more

Thank you Shara for last week's lesson, it was amazing. I've been spending since becoming aware of where my weight is on my feet and the relationship to my posture... and know this is going to make a big difference for me. My knees were starting to bug me in the last year but since this lesson I've noticed a pronounced difference, and also in my agility! read more

Shara is an incredible coach and in one session, I've already felt a major shift in the way I look at my life. I've also starting having incredible vivid and powerful dreams, and have been feeling lighter, calmer and happier all around. I look forward to the rest of our sessions together, and highly recommend Shara as she has a true gift of intuition and healing. read more

Shara has a truly extraordinary gift. I feel fortunate to have met her at a critical juncture in my life and feel I was ready to receive the healing she could provide that is not like those trapped in old paradigms. I would not have healed in such a way and at such extraordinary speed otherwise. Shara is before her time, and I feel I am, too, to be so lucky as to intercept it. read more
