ABOUT ME
Hello and welcome.
I am Kristina Garla. I am a somatic meditation teacher, writer and speaker, breathwork facilitator and certified Wayapa® practitioner.
Meditation, writing, somatic breathwork and Wayapa are beautiful practices cultivating peace, harmony and love. These practices do so using the gifts we are all born with. Breath. Imagination. Memory.
You already have everything you need to nurture peace within and around you; to create harmony in your body; and foster compassion and service to yourself and others.
I hold space for people to heal through meditation, breathwork, movement and writing from the body. Working with individuals, communities, early learning centres, schools, charities and workplaces, my goal is to foster wellness in the world.
I have guided engaging sessions for staff at Deakin University, volunteers, community and school children at the Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show for Beyond Blue, attendees at the Women in Business Summit Melbourne, staff at Ivanhoe Grammar School, the community at Trinity Grammar, employees at Cargo Crew, people working at TLC HealthCare, communities at Mirosuna, Oshun Yoga and Summer Healing, and early learning educators at Dame Nellie Melba Kindergarten, MyCentre Childcare and KinderHaven.
"I would happily recommend Kristina to anyone wishing to facilitate any form of mindfulness and look forward to working with Kristina again."
Sam Walker, Events Manager, Beyond Blue
I run weekly online meditation classes, breathwork sessions, Wayapa classes, writing therapy sessions, somatic journalling workshops and regular community circles, as well as special meditation events, immersions, one-to-one coaching and intuitive healing sessions. I also publish my writing on my blog and have shared my insights through speaking and writing engagements with Mayo Clinic, The Garden, Conversational Alchemy, Signature Sound and SheDefined.
Individual appointments, group bookings, writing commissions and speaking engagements can be arranged by emailing me at hello@kristinagarla.com
I love the healing power we have within us, and I look forward to meeting you.
