THE PURIST: Reawakening Inner Wisdom with Lauren Aiyana

“Reawakening Inner Wisdom With Lauren Aiyana” (June 20, 2025, The Purist) invites readers on a soulful journey guided by Lauren Aiyana, founder of The Light Thread spiritual life coaching. Aiyana delves into how modern life often disrupts our innate spiritual intelligence—what she calls our “inner wisdom”—and shares how reconnecting with nature and ancestral traditions can help us rediscover it .

Born with empathic and telepathic sensitivities, Aiyana recounts how a challenging upbringing taught her to suppress her gifts—until she embraced them through spiritual apprenticeship. She spent two decades studying with Kogi elders in Colombia and undertaking pilgrimages to sacred sites like Mary Magdalene’s land in southern France. These experiences awakened a profound sense of purpose and reinforced her belief that “women are caretakers and light holders for the world”.

Now based in the Hamptons, Aiyana integrates ceremonial beach sessions—including smudging, energy clearing, spiritual readings, and communion with the ocean—into her holistic coaching programs. Over 18 years, she has supported clients in releasing trauma, gaining clarity, and aligning with their true essence. Beyond individual work, she curates immersive wellness retreats across the Hamptons, Palm Beach, Europe, and beyond
