Se’a Criss has been a practitioner in natural health and personal relationship facilitation for over 25 years. She holds degrees in art, psychology, and Integrated Natural Therapies. Sea’s work draws on a lifetime of training in meditation and spiritual practice, yoga and movement, body therapies, shamanic healing, hypnotherapy, psychology, family dynamics, midwifery, and her own deep, personal probing into the mystery of life. Private practice sessions are the soul of the work. Her work has always been to support people to find their inner truth and power in all realms of life, stepping out of their history and into fullness.

Se’a has had the opportunity to serve clients in various ways. From experiences with healing family systems, she learned how to facilitate emotional and communication awareness that brings about heartfelt, soulful relationships. She takes this knowledge into business systems and guides clients to boundary their personal and professional lives in ways that support good business and vital personal transformation.

Since the early 90’s Se’a has worked with the creators of Begawan Giri Estate in Bali Indonesia, both with interpersonal relationships & family business issues. She trained the original staff  of The Source - their award winning spa-  in body work, Yogaia movement and teamwork and she was very instrumental during management meetings in resolving crisis.

Se’a has an eighteen-year consulting practice with an international designer couple, who live and work between two continents. They are partners both in life and their jewelry business. Sea’s work with them has facilitated a deep long-term commitment in the relationship that at times was challenged by the intricacies of their complex partnership. The work also facilitates their relationships within the company, their family and community and helps them bring their ‘green philosophy in sustainable luxury’ fully into their lives and business.

Se’a also works with non-profit organizations and government agencies. She as assisted the Self Reliance Foundation and its corporate affiliate, Hispanic Radio Network, in Washington, DC, to develop a smoothly operating alliance. In 2004, she co-facilitated a diabetes assessment for the NM State Department of Health, which led to an awareness of the diabetes epidemic in this state.

She has led business leaders through personal transformational retreats and works at depth to thoroughly awaken the client to their wholeness, discovering ways they can be successful and alive at the same time. Sea’s work is quite intuitive and her vision allows her to facilitate processes of self-knowledge and healing in creative and unique ways.

Her most recent passion is consulting with resorts and developers to create sustainable eco-centered properties and dwellings that are vitally integrated with the surrounding communities and responsible to local environmental needs. These resorts will become models for effective environmentally and socially conscious business success.

Se’a also co-created Yogaia Life Wave, a full-body movement practice that focuses on undulating waves through the spine. Yogaia draws from yoga, dance, martial arts awareness and meditation to create a ceremonial celebration form that connects your to your complete vitality and with the Earth. She trains teachers in Yogaia and conducts workshops around the world.

Se’a Criss has published several personal development books and the new book, Yogaia, is being readied for publication. In 1996 she co-produced a video introducing Yogaia, with co-founder Bob Friedman, MD.

Having grown up in rural Mississippi during the 1950’s and 60’s, Se’a developed a deep and abiding love for nature and a lifelong commitment to human rights and the environment. She is a mother and grandmother. She lives in Santa Fe, NM and travels internationally to consult and facilitate leaders in their transformation.
