About Ana San Gil

As a child, I was deeply connected to nature and found myself grieving every time I felt disconnected. I grew up in beautiful Costa Rica, raised in the city with regular travel to remote places and with a very international education.

In my early twenties, I went through the most challenging years of my life. I struggled with insecurity, self-worth, anger, anxiety, was taking hormonal birth-control and was prescribed psychiatric meds, which made things better for some time, and then much worse.

My whole life path changed once I allowed myself to feel. I began learning how to eat, how to think, how to reprogram my mind, who to be around. I began a deep journey within, journaling, getting creative, listening to my emotions and inner guidance.

This was not at all an easy path. I went through terrible withdrawal symptoms, felt the most emotionally imbalanced I ever have, and began to get really curious and studious about what was happening. Since then, I have encountered many great teachers who have shared invaluable tools for well-being and peace, especially from an addiction recovery/psych med recovery lens.

I believe we all have an extremely intelligent inner guidance that, if we are brave and trusting enough to follow, can bring great satisfaction and meaning to our lives.

I know we cannot do this alone, and that aligned and inspiring mentorship and guidance are necessary.

I love supporting others in their process of listening to their body symptoms, emotions, exploring their unique life path in order to continue creating a life that is most exciting, healthy and supportive to them, their loved ones and their community.

I am a devoted student of herbalism, somatic work, eastern philosophy, yoga, plant medicine, expanded states of consciousness, trauma and the nature of addiction.

My approach weaves somatic work, ancestral and mystical rituals, as well as visioning, meditation and communication techniques to allow clients to find their own answers with discernment. I enjoy bringing play into sessions through a bit of humour and creative expression.

In my free time, I like to bask in the glory of nature, so river time, sunbathing, gardening, playing in the kitchen, making herbal potions, dancing, singing and playing the djembe with friends!

I love exploring this human experience, digging deep whenever a piece of wisdom wants to be known, learning practices and ways to work with my inner landscape, challenges, vision and beyond. I absolutely love learning about bio-hacking, re-programming the mind and coming into more and more balance within. It is my absolute pleasure and passion to be able to share this with those who need it the most.

Ana San Gil's approach to integration

Whatever kind of experience you are navigating or have just gone through, being able to process it with the right guidance and reflection can allow you to receive the most value. Maybe you came out of a psychedelic experience that made no sense, or one that was extremely painful and challenging, or maybe you’re needing to speak on life situations that are already feeling like a lot!

I see integration as a sacred space to explore, understand and receive the wisdom that is coming your way. This can include: interpreting images/sensations lived, exploring a theme or topic that was powerful, working with your current body sensations or emotions, connecting to loved ones and past versions of self, working with breath, vision, sound and creativity. The possibilities are infinite! The intention is the same: gathering the gold from current circumstances or recent transformational/challenging experiences, with openness, safety, calmness and resources for balance.
