Who We Are
Parati Sacred Wellness | Creating Sacred Space—Wherever You Are
At Parati Sacred Wellness, we believe in creating meaningful, heart-led experiences that invite you to return home to yourself. Through retreats, sound healing, sacred ceremonies, sisterhood circles, yoga, meditation, and soulful workshops, we bring wellness into real-life spaces—accessible, intentional, and rooted in care. Everything we offer is grounded in self-love, community, and the truth that healing doesn’t only happen in a studio—it can happen anywhere.
Because your journey matters. And you deserve to Do It For You.
Our Mission
We are dedicated to guiding individuals on a journey of self-discovery and healing. Rooted in our core belief—"Do It For You!"—we encourage you to prioritize your wellness, both on and off the mat. Whether through calming yoga classes, enriching workshops, tranquil retreats, or mental health-focused offerings, our goal is to help you nurture your mind, body, and spirit.
Our Philosophy
At the heart of Parati Sacred Wellness is the belief that self-care isn’t a luxury—it’s a lifeline.
In a world that constantly asks us to give more, we create space for you to pause, breathe, and come home to yourself. Whether it’s through yoga, breathwork, or mindful connection, our offerings are designed to support your healing—gently, intentionally, and on your terms.
Because every step of your wellness journey should be for you.

Our Commitment to Giving Back
At Parati Sacred Wellness, giving back is woven into everything we do. We believe that healing and support should extend beyond circles and retreats—into the wider community where it’s needed most.
Through the Parati Heart Initiative, we contribute to programs that uplift women, families, and communities. From supporting mental health and wellness initiatives to creating opportunities for women re-entering society, our mission is to make sacred care accessible to all.
Because when we rise, we rise together.
Meet Our Founder: Shelley Cormier
Hi, I’m Shelley Cormier — the heart behind Parati Sacred Wellness and the woman who turned her healing into her purpose.
I didn’t choose this path because life was easy. I chose it because everything I lived through forced me to become someone stronger, softer, wiser, and more connected to myself than I ever thought possible.
I’m a mom to two beautiful kids with complex medical needs. I’ve lived through trauma, abandonment, domestic conflict, grief, depression, and seasons where I wasn’t sure I’d ever recognize myself again. I’ve walked through hard marriages, separation, rebuilding, reconciliation, heartbreak, and rebirth. I’ve carried guilt, shame, fear — and still found the courage to rise.
And that’s what shaped me.
Along the way, I found yoga, meditation, mindfulness, trauma-informed practices, sound healing, and deeper sacred medicine work that opened me back up to myself. I trained. I learned. I kept going. I became a Yoga Teacher, Mindfulness & Meditation Guide, Trauma-Informed Practitioner, Children’s Yoga Teacher, Sound Healer — and now I’m stepping into the shamanic path, plant medicine work, ancestral healing, and everything my soul has quietly been calling me toward for years.
But certifications aren’t what built Parati Sacred Wellness.
My lived experience did.
I’ve been the woman on the bathroom floor.
I’ve been the woman fighting for her kids.
I’ve been the woman rebuilding her life from scratch — again and again.
And I’ve also been the woman who said no more, who chose herself, who rose.
And now, everything I offer comes from that place.
Retreats. Ceremonies. Women’s circles. Co-ed retreats. Full-moon gatherings. Cacao. Sound. Morning rituals. Integration work. Online programs. The Do It For You Method™. The SHINE Retreats. The Sacred Pause monthly circles. My book Real. Raw. Rising. My coaching. My healing. My truth.
What started as a yoga practice became a movement, a community, a sanctuary — and a home for people who are ready to take their power back, one breath at a time.
My work is simple and honest:
I create spaces where people can feel safe, seen, supported, and free to rise into who they’re becoming.
I’m here for the real.
I’m here for the raw.
I’m here for the messy middle and the beautiful becoming.
And I’m here to walk beside you as you remember who you are.
Because if I can rise from everything I’ve lived through… so can you.
Connect with Shelley...
