In this episode we are in conversation with Elana Kaufman. 

Elana uses the pronouns  (she/her) and is a yoga teacher, Reiki II healer, space holder, creatrix and musician. Luna Lotus Healing is the ever evolving container that hosts Elana’s practice and offerings, which prioritize accessible, intentional and respectful exploration of healing movement and relaxation modalities for all. “Luna,” the Spanish word meaning Moon, is the representation of her connection and devotion to the Divine Feminine and a bow to Elana’s Puerto Rican roots; “Lotus” encapsulates the energy and experience of rising in honor of one’s darkness, the uncertain, the uncomfortable, and the unseen, to flourish and flower. In acknowledgement of and reverence for our shared human experiences as well as our differences in race, gender, religious or spiritual affiliation, sexuality, age, mobility, and socioeconomic status, Elana maintains a safe container of exploration and relaxation. Her passion for music, sound, and song are deeply interwoven into her offerings and are brought into practice through chanting mantras, creating healing playlists for her classes and singing songs. She believes in the power of restorative revolution- when we nurture ourselves, do our inner work to process and integrate our healing, we can better show up in service of our collective. Together we rise!
