Sacred Wisdom

Dianna Lucas is an integrative wellness specialist trained in plant medicine, meditation, integrative and somatic movement, and Shamanic practices. 

“I work with people at the beginning of life, end of life, and everything in between. I am also the founder of Grand Basin Yoga Forest Park, a private yoga studio in a public setting entering the 16th year of offerings.   See my schedule of classes for current offerings, or contact me with questions.

Together we will practice the arts of balancing your mind, body, spirit, and environment using wellness coaching, yoga, nutrition, meditation techniques, and transformational design.

Self care and self respect, respect for those around us, as well as the earth we all share, are the tenets of holistic living. It is essential to create an environment where you can feel nurtured, supported, and safe as you discover new truths about yourself and your world. These tenets are experiential, transformational and attainable, and like the practice of Asana, with perseverance, any posture can be attained.

    • Experiential Workshops
    • Meditation
    • Energy Modalities
    • Private Instruction
