Prema Gaia

Prema Gaia is a transformational mentor, intuitive guide, somatic coach and meditation teacher. Over some 25 years she has traveled the world gathering tools, knowledge and best practices from a wide variety of modalities and wisdom traditions. She uses them to support people on the journey of self-empowerment and somatic healing, and in offering their own gifts, wisdom and talents in service to an awakening global collective.

Her path began with a highly sensitive childhood and a period of searching that included modeling in Los Angeles and in several European countries. A series of wake-up calls led to a spiritual awakening. She then set out on a five-year pilgrimage, walking over 350 miles and hitch-hiking more than 20,000 miles across North America and Mexico. Along the way she visited sacred sites, intentional communities, ashrams, shamans and spiritual teachers. She lived as a renunciant for several years and spent longer stretches in meditation communities, temples and retreat centers, including a retreat cave in the foothills of the Ortiz mountains in New Mexico. Her guiding desire was to reconnect with the wisdom and cycles of Mother Earth, and to share the freedom she was finding with others.

Today she offers classes and workshops. One supports healing the mother wound, with journaling exercises and embodiment tools for releasing pent-up emotions. Another teaches how to host new moon and full moon circles, from guided meditations and journaling prompts to dance, movement and creativity. Her work has been featured in publications and wellness platforms including Saged App, Insight Timer, Spirituality & Health, Sage Woman, Conscious Dancer, HealthWise and Odyssey Magazine.
