Dr. Yana Castle provides a holistic East/West approach to healing, incorporating Buddhism, energy work, hypnotherapy, and mentoring for women.
Buddhist, East/West Healing: Drawing on Buddhist psychology, the dharma, and mindfulness practices, Dr. Castle incorporates these principles into her healing practice. Through compassionate, non-judgemental deep listening, she assists you in attaining balance, clarity, inner peace, and a deep understanding of the mind-body-spirit connection, empowering you to transform suffering into personal liberation.
Energy Work: Energy work sessions may include: Reiki, breath work, Qi Gong, Tibetan yoga, sound healing, and work with specific essential oils that can assist you in releasing energetic blockages, and to calm and soothe you, while restoring balance to the subtle body systems. Through ritual and ceremony, you are guided in ways to reconnect with the natural world, to the elements of earth, water, fire, air and space, and to connect with your ancestral wisdom.
Hypnotherapy: Through hypnotherapy, you are assisted in accessing your subconscious mind to uncover and transform deeply rooted patterns and beliefs. Dr. Castle facilitates a safe and gentle process, helping you release limitations, reframe experiences, and create positive changes at the subconscious level. Hypnotherapy can empower you to overcome fears, enhance self-esteem, self-acceptance, manage stress, experience freedom and joy, and help you achieve personal goals. Mentoring: Dr. Castle’s offers compassionate support and mentoring/guidance for women. With over two decades of experience, Yana encourages women to stand in their own power, build on their unique gifts, explore their life paths, creativity and connection with the 'divine,' that is particular to them. Through a collaborative and strengths-based approach, she assists you in exploring your full potential.

When you open yourself to the continually changing, impermanent, dynamic nature of your own being and of reality, you increase your capacity to love and care about other people and your capacity to not be afraid. You’re able to keep your eyes open, your heart open, and your mind open. And you notice when you get caught up in prejudice, bias, and aggression. You develop an enthusiasm for no longer watering those negative seeds, from now until the day you die. And, you begin to think of your life as offering endless opportunities to start to do things differently. --Pema Chodron
Within the heart of every woman lies an unfathomable wellspring of wisdom and compassion. It is time for her to recognize the boundless power she possesses, to rise above societal limitations, and to embrace her role as a catalyst for transformation. In her journey towards self-realization, she unveils the luminosity of her true nature, dissolving the veils of self-doubt and cultural conditioning. Empowered by her innate strength, she becomes a guiding light, igniting the flame of awakening in others. Let us celebrate the unique gifts and voices of women, for it is through their empowerment that the world will find harmony, balance, and true liberation. —Khandro Rinpoche
Remember, you have the ability to create profound change in your life. Together, let us illuminate your path towards your empowerment.
