~hello! my name is alina!

I am a non-binary, queer, mayan, chicanx, healing collaborator, social practice artist, and cultural worker.

I practice craniosacral and polarity therapy in 1:1 bodywork sessions that can be in person or online. If you are interested in cranio or polarity therapy, but need more info, feel free to book a free consultation with me!

I travel often, attending trainings or consulting with groups and organizations. This can look like offering sessions at an annual retreat or leading a workshop centering wellness and cranio/polarity exercises. If you have an idea about how we could work together send me an email : espirituytierra@gmail.com
