About Willia Drew, CMT

While meditating during a challenging life transition in my late 20’s, I felt called to study bodywork. My intention is to honor your divinity, hold space for you to get resourced, help relieve tension in the body, and leave you feeling more vibrant, connected to source and present than when you arrived. I do bodywork that can be therapeutic, relaxing and heart-opening. I also do Integrative Craniosacral Unwinding and Breathwork sessions. Sessions are customized in the moment. I’m trained in Swedish Circulatory Massage, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point Therapy, Myofascial Release, Sports Massage, Integrative Crainosacral Unwinding, Intuitive Energy Work and Breathwork. In 2007 I studied aura and chakra balancing at the Southern California Psychic Institute. Then in 2009 I was certified in massage through the Institute of Psycho-Structural Balancing at Life Energy Institute in Culver City. In 2018, I returned to IPSB at LEI to study Integrative Craniosacral Unwinding with Gary Strauss. In 2019 I studied Ecstatic Breathwork with Scott Schwenk. I’m a licensed Massage Therapist in the state of California and regularly expand my skills through continuing education classes. I graduated from CalArts in 2003 with a BFA in fine art and briefly lived as an artist, video editor, producer and arts educator before finding my path as a healer.

About Gratitude Healing

The practice of Gratitude is the most efficient way I’ve found, to replace feelings of suffering and lack with those of peace and abundance. Most of us recognize that our thoughts affect our mood, bodies and behavior; the depth of our breath, our posture, where we hold tension, how we feel emotionally and how we treat ourselves and others. Bodywork, meditation and breathwork are poignant ways to resource yourself, to bring your breath into alignment with your body, to metabolize blocked energy, and reconnect with your highest self. A good healer doesn’t strive to fix or “heal”, but rather to help facilitate energy movement and connection to source so that the system can be resourced and heal itself. A healer can hold space, bear witness to and facilitate a healing session, but it’s your capacity to do the inner work of breathing deeply, letting go and practicing gratitude that can anchor an ongoing sense of peace and wellbeing.
