WELCOME
All of us face challenges and difficulties in our lives- and yet what if these moments are the “mud” from which our very own lotus can grow?
I believe in the alchemy of everyday life – the ability to discover the gold in difficult and painful moments.
In these pages I offer my own alchemical potions – both in the services that I provide and in the writings that pour from my heart.
May these pages provide a new way of seeing and soothe you on your way.
My name is Samina Khan. I am an explorer and navigator of the human condition. For more than twenty years I have immersed myself within the study of psychology, spirituality and therapy. My journey has always sought to include a full mind, body and spiritual dimension and to this end I have trained as a Transpersonal therapist, Life-Coach, DanceMandala facilitator, TRE provider, Self-Compassion coach, Inner Dance facilitator and my journey continues.
