My name
is Lauren Aiyana
A lifelong Relationship with Nature and Spirituality
For as long as I can remember, I have felt a deep and intuitive connection to energy and cultivating a nurturing and harmonious relationship to the earth.
Throughout my twenties and thirties, I devoted much of my life to studying the healing arts, spiritual ecology, and traditional wisdom through formal education and personal apprenticeships with teachers from different cultural and wisdom lineages.
My personal practice is rooted in prayer, direct experience, and the development of my intuitive gifts.
I have been substance free for 23 years, and my spiritual journey has unfolded without the use of plant medicines.
Curated Offerings
Inner Growth
The Divine Mother, Nature, and the Sacredness of Life
For more than two decades, I have been immersed in the study and practice of what I call the Original Living Wisdoms, receiving extensive training and in-depth apprenticeship with Ordained Mamas and elders of the Kogi people of Colombia’s Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.
These teachings have been among the greatest gifts of my life, helping me understand the profound relationship between our inner lives, the spirit of the Earth, and the way we care for one another.
I have always felt that the connection between our soul, our heart, and nature is something deeply sacred and reciprocal. It is where I feel closest to God, where my most sincere prayers arise, and where I experience the greatest sense of love and gratitude.
To me, spirituality is not separate from everyday life. It lives in the kindness of our actions, the sincerity of our intentions, and the way we honor and care for all living things.
A Personal Journey with Mary Magdalene
Another deeply meaningful part of my spiritual life has been my relationship with Mary Magdalene.
Several years ago, in the pursuit of connecting to my own direct biological ancestors, I began traveling to sacred sites associated with her life throughout Europe, spending extended periods in silence, prayer, and contemplation.
During these pilgrimages, I experienced what I understood to be direct spiritual encounters with Mary Magdalene and Christ. These experiences were profoundly personal, and some aspects remain difficult for me to fully describe.
What I can share is how deeply they touched my heart.
Through weeks of prayer, reflection, and inner work, I came to understand love, compassion, humility, and devotion in ways that have continued to shape my life.
I hold these experiences with tremendous gratitude, not as beliefs I wish to place upon others, but as part of my own spiritual journey, ancestral connection, and the love and understanding I bring into my work.
The Heart of My Work
Today, I work as a life coach, energy healer, and spiritual mentor, with a private practice based in the Hamptons, serving clients in person across the east end, Long Island, and New York City, and virtually worldwide.
For 18 years, one of my greatest joys has been helping people discover their inner strengths and gifts, move beyond limiting patterns, and explore their purpose and spiritual growth.
I believe each person has their own unique virtues, deeper meaning, and path in life. My intention is to create a space where each client feels genuinely seen, understood, and supported as they grow into a more meaningful and fulfilling relationship with themselves and the world around them.
