Energy Renewal & Holistic Healing

Hello there!

I’m Shannon Joy, based in Durham, NC, raising my amazing 11-year-old son and learning every day how to create more joy by doing less. Less stress, less chaos, more clarity, here and now.

I’m a certified hypnotherapist, Reiki practitioner, and breathwork facilitator who believes healing should feel like a gentle exhale, not another item on your to-do list. My work is rooted in compassion, gratitude, gentleness, and honoring nature’s cycles, because life moves in seasons, and so do we.

What I Believe

Your nervous system deserves kindness. Your body deserves pleasure. Your space deserves simplicity. When we subtract the noise, we make room for what we actually want. This is true energy renewal, and it feels like a blissful homecoming. It’s the energy that builds Empires.

My Journey

I’ve walked through burnout, heartbreak, and reinvention. I know what it feels like to lose your sense of self and wonder if joy will ever return. My marriage was shattered by infidelity when my son was three. I’ve experienced caregiver and career burnout more times than I can count. Breathwork, hypnosis, gentle self-massage, and mindful decluttering helped me rebuild from the inside out. Now, I share these tools with others who crave calm and clarity without the overwhelm.

Scorpio heart, alchemy soul: I’m here for transformation that is grounded, real, and lasting. Positivity, yes. Toxic positivity? Absolutely not. Dark humor? Often.

What I Create

• Heart Warming, a gentle chest massage practice to melt numbness and soften body shame

• Nervous System Reset tools, simple breathwork and audio practices for calm

• Sleep Hypnosis, guided journeys to help your body remember how to rest

• Sync Your Space, clarity-by-decluttering prompts for your home and your mind

Everything I make honors the truth that less is more. Fewer steps, more presence. Fewer shoulds, more joy.

Who I Serve

Women in transition, whether it’s perimenopause, grief, or simply the weight of too much. Tender-hearted humans who want a path to peace that doesn’t require a personality transplant. If you value compassion, clear steps, and a little witchy sparkle, you’re in the right place.

How We Begin

Start small. Choose one practice. Five minutes is enough. Your body will thank you.
