Herstory
I AM a life-long explorer of the greater purpose and meaning of existence. Since I was a young girl, I have been a champion for unity consciousness, which IS the next evolutionary step for humanity… I have a background as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have worked in a variety of settings including hospice, long-term care facilities for aging adults and adults with special needs, the admissions department of a psychiatric hospital, and as a therapist in a psychiatric office.
In 2006, a challenging life transition catapulted me into my own evolutionary leap in consciousness. I have come to recognize this as an experience of a ‘dark night of the Soul’ in which I was faced with the choice to succumb to toxic intergenerational patterns or EMBRACE the COURAGE to ‘change the things I could’ and HEAL…
I chose the harder road of deep inner HEALING (which continues on to this day) and haven’t looked back since! Through my AWAKENING journey, I have been initiated in to the ancient healing arts of shamanism, Reiki energy medicine, and the life-changing experience of attending Nine Gates Mystery School. A phenomenal yearning to reunite with my Maya spiritual lineage occurred in early 2012, creating a profound pathway to align with the transformational ‘map of synchronicity’ called the 13 Moon Dreamspell, whose Founder, Jose' Arguelles, was the organizer of the first worldwide meditation for peace known as the Harmonic Convergence of 1987. As the urgent need for humanity to EMBODY our SPIRITUAL nature has expanded over the years, I heeded the call to unite my background as a Social Worker with the spiritual lineages I hold to be of service as a guide and ally for fellow Seekers' awakening journeys.
A catalyst for my own HEALING journey has been remembering and claiming my own unique expression of the Divine Feminine. The RISE of the FEMININE has become a core weaving throughout my HEALING work and the mission of SHINE. The new paradigm emerging for humanity IS deeply Feminine, beckoning US to listen to our intuition, align with our e-motional intelligence, flow with nature’s rhythms and patterns, choose cooperation over competition, and EMBODY a reverent way of living with ONE another and our Mother Earth.
As of November 2024, I will be CELEBRATING thirteen years since I took the leap of faith in building a bridge from the Western realm of approaching mental health to the realm of Shamanic healing. My cup runneth over with the BLESSINGS of getting to share in countless people’s HEALING journeys through one-on-one and group TRANSFORMATIONAL experiences. I can say with full confidence that humanity IS HEALING on the deepest of levels. May WE TRUST THE JOURNEY and SHINE TOGETHER!
SHINE: Supporting Humanity in navigating evolution
“I want to thank you for your continued high vibe guidance. Our family has been feeling all the energies of the collective recently (feelings of expansion, cleansing, restructuring, redirection.. and some of it is a little scary at times). When Brandon started to feel down a couple of days ago, I encouraged him to watch the video you had just posted, and his first words after watching were “It’s so comforting to know it’s not just me”. Then, when I was starting to feel a bit anxious about life, I saw your post about the light warriors. I took time to meditate on those words and to reaffirm my place in the good work we are here to do. You are a shining light of understanding and expansion and I’m so happy to know you. In Lak’ech”
“Heather’s message is profound and timely. Her following words of wisdom touched me deeply: “Connect with what you stand for and for your truth.” “We know at our core that we’re all one family.” “We’re on a profound healing journey together.”
Thank you, Heather, for sharing your wisdom, especially during these dark days. You’re right...we’ll get through it together!”
philosophy
I AM devoted to being a source of inspiration and empowerment to fellow human BEings. Through working with countless people over the years, I have witnessed firsthand the potential for miraculous transformation when a person is able to directly connect with their own inner truth and discover meaning and connectedness in their life. I feel that it is my life’s purpose to support the evolutionary shift that is happening upon the planet and have co created a powerful program called SHINE (Supporting Humanity In Navigating EVOLution).
The SHINE journey is designed to provide practical tools through individual healing sessions, mentorship, and INTENTIONAL commUNITY BUILDING to discover one’s innate truth through cultivating meaning and connection-activating one's capacity to live an authentic and joyful life in service to all sentient beings.
I feel that a key to PEACE within oneSelf and within our world is in HEALing and UNITING the masculine and feminine energies. I AM in celebration of the reemergence of the Sacred Feminine essence of unconditional love, acceptance, forgiveness, compassion, connection, and collaboration.
“I own a yoga studio and have been teaching yoga for about 20 years and a couple of years ago I found myself longing to be in community with other conscious energy workers. I set the energy at my studio as a sanctuary for others and was in need of that same thing for myself. This is when I found Heather Elizabeth and her Serrano Sanctuary. It felt like coming home — back to the playful, mystical, magical, childlike vibration that allows Spirit to flow and miracles to happen. She’s been my wise, sage counsel when I needed it and has energetically held my hand when I needed a little extra boost of courage as I was about to take my next steps. I love it when I’m able to attend her events as I always leave feeling renewed and lighter than when I arrived. Like a true healer and guide, she holds a safe, high vibration, energetic space that allows Spirit to flow.
I’m grateful for her presence in my life and the work she does to raise the vibration of the planet overall. You’ll be in the best of hands with Heather.”
