About 
YOLOVIVI

YOLOVIVI was created to honor and share the art of spiritual healing. Rooted in ancestral traditions of African-American Rootwork, I weave somatic practices, sound healing, aromatherapy, crystal work, and grounding rituals into experiences that support harmony of body, spirit, and nervous system.
 

The name itself carries a blessing: YOLO—“You Only Live Once”—paired with the African word Lovivivi, meaning “love is sweet and ever-present.” Together they invite a life lived with intention, compassion, and connection.

As a social worker in training and wellness practitioner, my approach blends DBT-informed mindfulness, trauma-aware pacing, and transpersonal exploration. 
 

From my home in the Sierra Nevada foothills, I offer these tools as an act of care—for myself, for my community, and for anyone seeking rooted, soulful support on their path.
