Suya Devi

As a holistic transformation guide, with a coaching practice focused on energy management and heart based living as the foundation to a fulfilling and successful life, Suya feels privileged to have witnessed and supported her clients' remarkable breakthroughs and life-altering outcomes over the past eight years.

She holds an unwavering belief that every single person is astonishingly powerful - even if they don't know it yet, and if provided with the right level of care, mentorship and relevant resources, accessing one's true potential can lead to extraordinary achievements and transformative impact on both their own lives and the world around them. Suya envisions a future where every individual's unique talents and abilities are nurtured and supported, enabling them to overcome challenges, pursue their passions, make a meaningful contribution to society and create positive change that ripples through generations to come.

With an abundance of personal growth knowledge, art of living approach, wealth of hands-on experience and a dash of humor, she brings to life the Modern Ancient Method ™ utilized in retreat programs.

Combining ancient wisdom with a modern lifestyle and mindset, Suya's practical insights are based on her adept use of the chakra system as a diagnostic framework for mental, emotional, and physical dis-ease.

To support an informed approach to holistic health, Suya formally studied and trained for several years alongside her corporate career, including but not limited to obtaining diplomas in Bio-Energy Healing and Integrative Ayurveda as an Ayurveda Nutrition and Lifestyle Consultant. Further, she obtained her certification in life coaching from neuro-lingusitic programming (NLP) co-founder Richard Bandler and has been mentored through several transformational programs.

Suya's sacred medicine journeys, over the past decade, have facilitated healing deep trauma, supported intuitive and psychic gifts, graced her with ineffable experiences of unity consciousness, and drives her passion for heart based living. She has successfully coached and led many clients through first time sacred medicine use, including effective Iboga microdosing programs.

As a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance, Suya draws on her Ashtanga Vinyasa, Yin and Kundalini trainings in India, France, the US and London to maintain an evolving practice that explores Patanjali's Eight Limbs.

She continues to overcome her mental boundaries to achieve physical and spiritual transcendence, incorporating regular practices such as traditional Peruvian plant dietas, vipassana meditation, bikram yoga, dry and intermittent fasting, chemical-free product use and cold plunges. As a member of Self Realization Fellowship, she is dedicated to studying the scientific meditation techniques and teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda.

In addition to retreat facilitation, business oversight and development, she co-leads the health and safety team training for sacred ceremonies and is certified by the American Red Cross in First Aid/ CPR/ AED.

Suya is dual-qualified as a lawyer in the state of New York and a barrister in the UK, and has worked in investment banking in regulatory compliance, risk management and the legal industry, for nearly two decades. As a member of the Board of Directors for Rich Mix, a leading cultural hub and diverse performing arts social enterprise in her hometown of Shoreditch, London, she supports strategic development of the company and charity.

Suya lives in San Diego, California, and is an avid hiker and reader on a wide range of subjects. She particularly enjoys classic English, French and Russian literature, researching ancient civilizations, the journey of life after death and writing poetry.
