Meet Lena Diarmada:

Your Guide to Wholeness, Healing & Empowerment

LenaK-284.jpg

Hello there,

 

My name is Lena Diarmada, an integrative Ayurvedic practitioner, holistic healer, and intuitive channel, dedicated to supporting soul-driven changemakers and creatives on their journey to healing and empowerment.
 

As co-founder of Shambala Awakening Hub & Shambala Nature Retreat, and Herbalist behind our herbal apothecary, my work is deeply rooted in my connection to nature and my passion for helping others cultivate inner harmony and wholeness. By embracing our unique nature, I believe we can thrive as individuals and contribute to a flourishing, more-than-human collective ecosystem.
 

At Shambala Awakening Hub, I lead transformative programs that guide individuals to reconnect with their mind-body wisdom. My approach merges ancient Ayurvedic principles with modern, eco-centric healing practices, empowering people to access their full potential and live in greater alignment with who they truly are.
 

Whether through one-on-one sessions, immersive workshops and programs, or life-changing retreats, I hold safe, empathic spaces that allow for deep healing, growth and activation.

I empower soul-led changemakers and high achievers to create lasting inner harmony without quick-fix fads,

attuning them to their innate power so they can achieve their biggest goals with clarity, energy, and confidence,
lead authentically and thrive in joy, ease, and flow.

Working with Lena is available via our group containers and immersions within which many students choose to work 1:1 with Lena via optional add-on session-bundles, or via private one-on-one initiation journeys over three or six months.

She also facilitates seasonal nature-based ceremonies and retreats here at Shambala in Margaret River and private healing & sacred bodywork sessions.

If you would like to learn more or have any questions and enquiries regarding our offerings, trainings or working with Lena in any capacity, please get in touch.

what clients say

Often, when we know we need to change, and we are truly beginning to assimilate that truth, we don't know what we are looking for. Our mind begins to play games - what's best, what's healthiest, should I exercise more?

What we don't often look at is that we are constantly evolving regardless of what our mind dictates, often our mind is the last to know and then the first to obstruct.

Working with Lena reminded me that the root of our healing begins in feeling safety within our most vital instrument - the body vehicle. Once routine - the psychological root of safety - has been established there, nourishment; grace; evolution are free to unfold unhindered unrestricted.

With this comes trust - you become a person you can truly rely upon. And this is a really enjoyable place to be

My Own Healing Journey

From burned out and disconnected to thriving with purpose, empowering hundreds of changemakers globally to lead with clarity, ease, and authenticity, and co-founding a nature-rooted wellness sanctuary.

About 10 years ago, I hit a low point. I was burnt out, struggling with gut and hormone issues, eating disorders, and a deep disconnect from my body. It felt like I was just coping with life, accepting dis-ease as my normal. I was ready to move back home, admit myself into psychotherapy, and begin an anti-depressant protocol. I sold everything in Australia and was preparing to leave—when something shifted. Sitting in my mom's garden, I heard a voice, clear and strong, telling me to go to India and study Yoga. It was the second time this voice had guided me. The first was years before when I was about to sign my life away to a 17-year contract in the German army to become a surgeon. That same voice, a deep inner knowing, nudged me to Australia instead. So, once again, I listened.

A week later, I was on a plane to India, immersing myself in Yogic and Ayurvedic study. That experience changed everything. I let go of a toxic relationship, found clarity, and for the first time, felt connected to my body. I treated myself with the kindness I had always extended to others. Life began to feel lighter, more aligned, as if I was remembering who I truly was.

This awakening reignited my passion for healing and learning. Over the past decade, I’ve devoted myself to studying with masters in Asia, Australia, and the USA, investing all I had into this path. As I embodied what I learned, it rippled outward—transforming not just my life but the lives of countless clients. I went from barely surviving to truly thriving, deeply connected to my inner compass, my body, and my needs.

Today as an integrative Ayurvedic practitioner, holistic healer, and intuitive channel, and co-founder of Shambala Awakening Hub & Shambala Nature Retreat, my work is dedicated to supporting soul-driven changemakers and high achievers to heal and empower themselves. Through Ayurvedic wisdom and eco-centric healing practices, I guide individuals to reconnect with their unique nature, cultivating inner harmony and wholeness. I believe that by thriving as individuals, we contribute to a flourishing collective ecosystem. My journey has shown me the power of healing from within, and now, I hold space for others to do the same.

Listen to the short Elemental Alchemy podcast episode above (19min), a recording of a talk Lena gave at a speaking event in early 2020, to get to know her and her purpose a little better!

"From personal and professional experience I know that when we take responsibility for our own healing, empowerment and awakening as an individual, it creates a ripple effect in our communities, which is the only way to anchor in a new earth paradigm of respect, reverence, compassion and love for one another, with every single being feeling safe and permitted to live fully in our Highest creative expression."

Over the last decade, I have extensively trained with experts and gotten qualified in the field of holistic healing therapies, both, in Eastern and Western traditions across Asia, Australia and Europe, with my main body of work originating from the science, art and way of life of Yoga, Ayurveda, Tantra and shamanic alchemy.

I am deeply passionate about reconnecting through nature to [our] nature to live & express ourselves fully and authentically and feel deeply connected to ourselves, others and the earth.

You can work with me via private 1:1 sessions and mentoring programs, trainings and group containers, in-person somatic healings or immerse in one of our retreats and experiences.
