Violeta is a Shakti Reiki Master and Reiki Training facilitator based in Los Angeles. With twelve years of experience as a wellness educator, she is passionate about teaching stress-management, self-care, and self-healing practices. Violeta was introduced to yoga and meditation as a teenager to cope with health and body-image challenges. Yoga helped her come home to her body and to develop self-love, insight, and compassion. As she dove deeper into her healing process, she gravitated towards Reiki and found it to be a simple, accessible, and effective healing modality to reduce stress and enhance energy. She discovered that anyone can learn Reiki by receiving an "Attunement" from a qualified Reiki Master. Violeta has been teaching Reiki since 2016, when she became a Shakti Reiki Master and opened her private practice, Violeta Healing. The inspiration for her practice is her grandmother, whose maiden name was Violeta. Also, violet is a healing frequency utilized in many spiritual traditions to transmute low-vibrational energy. Violeta Healing is devoted to personal and collective transformation and awakening the energy of the sacred feminine, which is all about prioritizing rest, honoring the body, and awakening intuition. 

As the first-generation biracial daughter of immigrants, Violeta brings a unique approach to healing that honors the diversity, resilience, and inherent beauty of each individual. She contributes actively to community wellbeing by offering community clinics and collaborating with various non-profit organizations like We Still Move (Formerly Critical Mass Dance Company), Frontline Therapists, Peace Over Violence, A Place Called Home, Safe Place for Youth, New Village Girls Academy, and Las Fotos Project.

 Violeta is a certified 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher, Yin Yoga teacher, Healing Movement/Dance facilitator, and the founder of Emerging Girls, a self-care program for teen girls. Violeta is currently pursuing an M.A. in Counseling Psychology.
