Welcome, I'm Melissa (aka Mel) — a Yoga Alliance 200-hour RYT, Usui Reiki Master-Teacher, Sound Healing Practitioner, mom, wife, and grandmother. I came to yoga and energy healing later in life, and I don’t have what many think of as a “traditional yoga body.” My journey has been about embracing myself exactly as I am and discovering how profoundly these practices can support healing, strength, and inner peace at any stage of life.

This transformation — body, mind, and spirit — inspired my calling to create a gentle, inclusive space where others can feel seen, nurtured, and safe to explore their own healing journey.

The name Lumina Sage came to me through a powerful spiritual experience during a time of deep personal reflection and growth. It felt like a soul name — meaning radiant light and ancient wisdom. This name reflects the light I hope to help others uncover within themselves and the timeless wisdom we all carry in our hearts.

Through Lumina Sage Yoga & Healing, I offer Yin yoga, Reiki, meditation, intuitive Oracle card readings, and sound healing to guide you back home to your body and your spirit. My mission is to hold space for your healing with compassion, love, and authenticity — so you can rest, reset, and reconnect to your soul purpose.

You are welcome here. Just as you are. ❤️✨
