Give yourself the gift of a Shamanic or Reiki Healing Session
Hi, I'm Emily ❤️ the Maven behind Haven Maven Community
I am a shamanic and energy medicine practitioner as well as a lifelong student of yoga, meditation, astrology, plant medicine, and spiritual practices.

I believe that we evolve over time, spiritually, philosophically, with our relationships. We are transformational beings. And, as such, are on journeys of self discovery and growth. This is the alchemy, this is the magic: That everything is alive and has spirit, or consciousness, and we are continually in process of being extraordinary.
This site is an invitation imbued with intention. Think of it like a rain drop you catch on your tongue, or embers in a fire circle that radiate heat and hold your gaze. Think of it as the wind moving through leaves on a tree, or soft but firm earth on your bare feet. This is how I would like to engage with you--with joy, presence, intention, and support.
I guide individuals and groups through sacred space. For example, I've led classes and workshops incorporating shamanic practices, energy healing, yoga, and meditation; women's circles; home and land clearing and blessings; cacao and fire ceremonies. The space we are in could be personal or public, formal or informal, event or everyday based. Experiences are designed with intention and for your needs. You express the intention, and together we will create a truly meaningful offering--one that is curated from beautiful and deeply supportive and transformative practices.
Thank you for considering me to support you on your journey. You already have all the tools and knowledge. My passion is nurturing your well-being and excellence, which in turn services the community. May we live intentionally, with purpose. Be content with one's self. Build community. Find fulfillment. May it be so!
From 2025-2026 I will be continuing to study with Sandra Ingerman in her Two-Year Teacher Training program and also studying with Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach in their Two-Year Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program (MMTCP).
I've completed Sandra Ingerman's advanced shamanic practitioner training and am offering shamanic healing sessions. See Offerings for more information.
I've also been steeped in somatic experiencing and nonviolent communication practices with a focus on lovingkindness.
Previously I've held private Master Reiki sessions for both humans and animal companions; guided yoga nidra and yin yoga at One Yoga in Minneapolis; held womxn's circles, publicly and privately. I also have been a guest teacher at Mary Bue's Taos Creativity and Yoga Retreat, offering Yoga Nidra, Energetic Self Care, and also Master Reiki sessions.
Prior to the pandemic I taught yoga and meditation classes at Atma Wellness in Robbinsdale, MN. There we held full and new moon yoga nidra classes as well as combining acupuncture and energy healing with yoga nidra into a workshop in partnership with Doctor of Acupuncture, Arhatic Yogi, Pranic Healer, Husband (Samantha Calva), Dad (Pax and Zen), and Rollerblader Jason Calva. This location closed August 2020 when Jason Calva moved to work at the Mayo Clinic.
I am based in Plymouth, MN, and have lived and trained in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul) area for 20+ years.
Currently volunteer as a Moments of Life, or death, doula with Moments Hospice (trained and certified in 2023).

Supported my body through pregnancy yoga at the original Blooma studio in Edina with Sarah Longacre.
Volunteered as a yoga assistant to Matthew Sanford at the Courage Center.
Teacher trained in yoga, meditation, and peace medicine at the Yoga Center of Minneapolis/now the Yoga Center Retreat, with Jennifer Gray, Tara Cindy Sherman, Colleen Elwood, and a host of incredible teachers.
Practiced kundalini yoga with Helena Kriel at the Center for Happiness.
Worked with Henry Emmons on holistic healing who guided me toward the path of yoga and meditation, which led to a whole host of esoteric studies.
Gratitude for many insightful teachers and experiences on this path.
Whether you are seeking insight and blessings for yourself, a sacred container and celebration for groups, or to be in ceremony, I'm available to listen and, then, design and guide a beautiful and intentional offering crafted for your needs.
