About Hemla Makan -Dullabh & 7 Rays

​Growing up in South Africa, Hemla understands the concept of "Ubuntu" which means "I am because of you". 

 

Nelson Mandela describes it as "the profound sense that we are human only through the humanity of others; that if we are to accomplish anything in this world it will in equal measure be due to the work and achievement of others."

 

Hemla draws from this belief and weaves it into her work and in her relationships with each soul she meets.

 

​Hemla believes that we are all beacons of light and her journey with each soul, is to remind them to reawaken that power and light within themselves. 

 

To be able to see within is to know ourselves.

Why work with Hemla?

To awaken the power within you is to awaken the dormant inner healer. We have aspects of our lives that we have been asleep to. It may be our hearts, our minds, or our bodies. To truly awaken the power within us we have to cultivate a practice in "Presence" and look inside to find out what has been asleep and why?

​

Hemla helps guide you on this journey using various modalities. She uses the Enneagram and somatic-based energy work to speak to the body, mind, and heart.

​

We need guides to help us navigate the terrain, to explore both the inside and outside of ourselves. As a Transformation Catalyst, Hemla guides and works with both groups and individuals, to listen, guide, and offer tools to help us feel more empowered and focused. When we re-pattern our thoughts and our actions it brings growth and change. 

What is unique about Hemla's style of working? 

Hemla customizes each session to suit your individual needs, even when working in a group. She blends together the various therapies that may be needed making each experience unique for you!

"Hemla takes you through a process of self-discovery and healing that is unique and inspiring, combining different types of methods that work best for your personality and what you are comfortable with. She is extremely approachable and entirely open-minded and non-judgmental about anything that you discuss with her.

The process she led me through opened my mind, my heart, and my soul in ways that helped me understand who I am, where I came from, and what I want to do to move forward-- unlike any other process I've ever experienced. Because I feel so strongly about Hemla's process and its transformative effects, I would encourage and have encouraged many of my loved ones to meet with Hemla. She's simply amazing. I give her my highest recommendation."
