LUZURA PERALTA

My personal practice and offerings are rooted in devotion to Her; in all expressions, as the womb source of creation. Shaped through my own lived experience of diaspora, gender disphoria and trauma, my work is guided by a deep prayer to assist in dissolving the illusions of separation, disconnection and displacement experienced by many of us in this human experience.

I do this by bridging ancestral and indigenous ways of knowing with contemporary somatic and nervous system science, relational wisdom and accessible body-based practices. By honouring both intuition and evidence, the sacred and science, my work supports people to build capacity to navigate the modern world. Whilst reconnected to the old ways of working with the body and Earth, as sites of vast ancient intelligence, belonging and remembrance. My offerings are intended to serve as gentle invitations to self discovery, resolution, and empowerment through direct engagement with truth, at a level that respects your unique nervous system capacity and needs.

Prior to serving this prayer, I obtained a Bachelor of Arts BA (Hons) degree in Dance & Professional Practice, from the University of Coventry. Leading me into 20+ years experience as a Choreographer and Somatic Movement Practitioner, with a special interest in mixed-media and nature based practice.

I am a continuing student and practitioner of Traditional Mayan Medicine, under the guidance of Tzotzil healer and elder Sofia Diaz Hernandez, from Chiapas, Mexico. Receiving these teachings profoundly initiated my own transformation and healing processes. Helping me to gain a much broader perspective of the world, and the self, as a human-being and artist.

I became an ICF Acc. Neurosomatic Intelligence Coach in 2023, prompted by my own lived experience of Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). I am deeply passionate about supporting others to understand the language of their nervous system, and the potential that brings to optimise embodiment, well-being and growth.

I currently work with clients globally online and in-person through neursomatic coaching, mentorship, movement workshops, and ceremony. Additionally, I have a private home studio in Stonehaven, Scotland, where I offer for 1:1 sessions for Mayan Medicine and Ancestral Adornment rituals.
