Our Why


ABOUT SERAFINA

IMG_0005.jpg

Serafina sound healing facilitator, Chiara Luce, works with creatives and mystical seekers who struggle with

  • Being at peace in the present

  • Knowing whether they are living aligned with their purpose

  • Hearing their inner "yes's and no's" and

  • Feeling like "something" is missing.

People who strive to heighten their intuitive and creative flow and find healing, relaxation, encouragement, and fun in an aligned spiritual community.

What separates Chiara from other sound bath facilitators is that she's a Goddess-guided, formally trained sound healing facilitator, classical musician, and reiki practitioner. Chiara confidently taps into her intuition and incorporates metaphysical knowledge in each practice.

Before actively pursuing her own healing, Chiara questioned almost every step she made towards heart-centered living. As a result, she moved farther into addiction, felt miserable and trapped at work, and had unfulfilling and often superficial relationships. Finally, Chiara combined decades of training in music, breath, and bodywork with everything from traditional healing modalities to spiritual practices, and the miraculous occurred. She began to feel safe in her body and connected to her divinity. Chiara started to hear and honor her intuition, and her path changed.

Chiara now lives a joyful life enriched by how juicy and exciting living in the present is when you're healing and co-creating with the cosmos. She helps Serafina clients do the same. Through guided meditations, you'll unearth deeply healing and fortifying truths and release limiting beliefs. Toning and sound bath sessions will leave you energized, relaxed, divinely connected, and peacefully present. Above all, you can expect to leave feeling encouraged, knowing that through one session, you've already made significant steps towards growth, healing, and positive change.


EMPOWERING
Embodiment

embodiment
noun
someone or something that represents a quality or an idea exactly.

-Cambridge Dictionary

Being embodied feels like having your attention, thoughts, and heart, fully in the present moment or task.

When was the last time you experienced that?

It often happens during activities like gardening, cooking, swimming laps, or playing an instrument.

As someone who has survived and thrived past multiple Traumas, Chiara didn’t always feel comfortable inhabiting her body. Her mind was often escaping elsewhere caught up in anxious thought loops about the near-or-far future, gone thinking about the past, or she was dissociating. If she was present, she was hypervigilantly focused on making sure her body was safe.

This is not to say that those things don’t pop up occasionally, but it does mean that she spent 12-months thinking she would never dance again, and now she dances every week. For years she couldn’t even maintain eye contact with others, and now her soul is so at home in her body that she is able to sing for wonderful people like you.

Sound healing gives Chiara the gift of Embodiment which she, in turn, channels to others. She feels that one of the benefits of sound healing is its universal accessibility. Talking, touching, and even moving are not required.

The language Chiara uses during sound baths alleviates guesswork for participants and empowers integration of the body, mind, and spirit.

In A nutshell

Chiara’s mom likes to tell a story about Chiara at age 4

It was her mom, Lotus’ birthday, and they celebrated by spending the day on a quiet beach. There, Chiara spontaneously put on an impromptu show. She made up and sang songs about “opening your heart to love” and asked the imaginary audience for volunteers. She called for everyone! “The old ones, the invalids, you in the wheelchair,” and of course, Mom, aka “you, in the back, with the long braid!” Chiara celebrated each person with healing love, sound, and song.

Now, a few feet taller and a few decades later, Chiara is joyfully aligned with her inner child, and she is honored to channel sound to facilitate healing for the folks she’s always dreamt of.
