"Miracles are a shift from fear to love"

Course In Miracles

Greetings, I’m Tanya…

A recovering perfectionist, people pleaser, sensitive human with a lot of energy and ambitious dreams.

I didn’t always share that comfortably. As an Asian American girl growing up not integrated into my Filipino heritage and often feeling different, I recognize there will always be a younger version of myself yearning for more self-worth, approval, belonging, and unconditional love. 

But through cultivating transformative awareness, a sense of my enoughness has surfaced. 

I want to acknowledge my lineage of teachers that have greatly contributed to how I have grown and now serve. My journey and work is a consilience of somatic practices of Pause Breathwork from Sam Skelly, Yoga Psychology from Ashley Turner, Astrology from Leslie Galbraith and Gemini Brett, Neuroplasticity from Rick Hanson, Interpersonal Neurobiology from Dr.Dan Siegel and the Polyvagal Nervous System from Stephen Porges. 

The integration of these teachings and tools are powerful and have supported me in releasing the judgment and most significantly transforming in my awareness of my pupose and potential, and of all of the richness that already exists.

And there’s nothing more important to me now than to share these tools; evidence-based practices grounded in science so you can learn to learn and grow neurobiological, psychological, and somatic resourcing to meet the challenges that want to block you from your own potential, your BIG dreams and embracing the richness that too already exists

You are entitled to miracles too. It truly is a shift in your perception of fear to a perception of love.

Healing Past, Present, and Future + My Grief Journey

A story (my narrative) of my ancestral healing & grief journey.

As a child, I equated my self-worth to over-achieving. Growing up, my mom would say:

“if I didn’t have an accent, they would treat me like this…” 

“if I was married to a doctor, they wouldn’t treat me like this…”

“if I had a big house, they would treat me like this…”

And so my perception and narrative of being worthy equated to appearances, possession, and status.

So I worked hard and achieved to receive worth.

Until breathwork found me. What I’ve learned through breathwork is awareness of the meaning I give things and the stories (meaning and significance) I assign to them.

As I grew in mindful awareness, I began to notice. Notice when I would think and assign meaning.

Noticing what you are noticing is a superpower. And as I journeyed and expanded deeper in noticing and knowing what I was noticing (metacognitive awareness). 

Everything shifted and transformed.  

Especially in my relationship to myself and to everyone around me.

This kind of mindful awareness was what supported me through the unexpected death of my brother. 

It’s what has supported me to continue to grieve and heal and still find joy. 

It’s what has supported me in supporting my parents still. 

This kind of awareness is how I have found significance and meaning and a sense of a new relationship with my brother. 

This kind of awareness will support you with all your relationships, interior and exterior

… if you are willing to open up to it too.
