My name is Grace Marie Abiera (she/they), and I am an herbalist, Reiki Master Mentor, Kundalini + Breathwork Facilitator, Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT), and Birth Doula with over half a decade of experience offering somatic healing practices both in studio and to my local community.
I approach healing through the Wise Womxn Tradition and weave the teachings passed down to from my Filipino immigrant upbringing to help humans return to the Earth’s natural laws governing the mind and systems of the body, both energetically and physically. I recognize the path of healing is held in the loving embrace of community and am committed to walking the path of justice and remembrance alongside plants and other humans.
I offer specialized support to those who are moving through experiences related to sexual trauma, birth trauma, sacral imbalances, decolonization & ancestral reclamation, gender identity & expression, chronic stress, and neuro-divergence. I have held space throughout Southern California at venues such as music festivals, art museums, and in virtual experiences. I currently create herbal medicine in my apothecary in Shelter Island, San Diego.
