Heal • Transform • Awaken

There is a place within you that has never been broken.
Even in the depths of loss, change, and transformation, something essential remains whole.

Hi, I’m Maya, and I’m here to walk beside you as you heal, transform, and awaken the light of your True Self.

If you’re living with physical pain, emotional unrest, or simply longing for more clarity, vitality, and a deeper connection to life, you’ve found yourself in the right place.

Akhanda means whole or unbroken in Sanskrit. It speaks to the sacred journey we are all on, a shared unfolding that connects us in our search for love, meaning, and belonging. At its heart, this path is about remembering and reclaiming our inherent wholeness. As we transform ourselves, we ripple healing outward, to our ancestors, our communities, and to Mother Earth herself

With over 25 years of experience in holistic wellness, I draw upon a rich tapestry of modalities including Shamanic healing, intuitive bodywork, and the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda. My approach is fluid, intuitive, and shaped by what unfolds in the moment. Together, we co-create a healing journey that meets you exactly where you are.

My work is rooted in four interconnected pillars of holistic living:

  • Honouring the body as a temple and cultivating somatic awareness as a gateway to radiant health.

  • Dinacharya (the daily rhythm), Ahara (food as sacred medicine), and Aushadha (Ayurvedic herbs) all work together to align your body with nature and your unique constitution/ imbalances.

  • Cultivating emotional intelligence (EQ) through heart-brain coherence and emotional regulation as a strong foundation for inner resilience and harmonious living.

  • Embodying heart-led presence and deepening into sacred connection through energy healing and ancient shamanic wisdom.

You can work with me through stand-alone sessions, or immerse yourself in a personalised programme crafted just for you.

I am here in deep service to the beauty of your unfolding.

“The magical always surrounds me,
always involves me.
lt opens spaces that have no doors and leads out into the open
where there is no exit.”

AYURVEDA

Ayurveda, meaning ‘the science of life’ is an ancient system of holistic healing that originated in India over 5,000 years ago. It teaches that health is not just the absence of disease but a state of harmony between body, mind, and spirit.
At the heart of Ayurveda are the three Doshas; Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, which govern our physical and mental constitution. Each person has a unique combination of these doshas that shape everything from digestion to energy levels and emotional tendencies.

She is dressed in what appears to be historical or fantasy-style clothing, and there is a fur-lined cloak beside her on a bench, with autumn leaves on the ground around her.

SHAMANIC HEALING

Shamanic healing is a powerful, spirit-led modality that works at the energetic level to release deep-seated trauma and emotional wounds. It goes to work at the very root of your suffering by revealing the subconscious constructs that shape the way you see the world. By removing these imprints at the core level, your view of yourself transforms, shifting from the limited ego-centric view to soul-level Unity Consciousness. This opens a pathway to profound inner transformation and alignment with your Soul’s highest purpose.

HOLISTIC HEALTH

Holistic means encompassing the whole, reminding us that we are not fragments to be fixed but whole beings seeking balance. Holistic therapies recognise that the body holds an inherent healing intelligence, constantly working to return to homeostasis and harmony. By gently guiding us back into relationship with our unique nature, we create space for the nervous system to soften and for stored pain, both physical and emotional, to release, allowing the body’s natural rhythm to emerge.
