My passion is in helping people find their unique path to vitality, pleasurable wellness, and a passion for living with the Sensefulness Method for activating body wisdom, self-awareness & embodiment.  This unique interdisciplinary approach was born in Brazil, inspired by the Afro-Brazilian traditions that celebrate life on earth as the culmination of our spiritual embodiment, based on the latest research in behavioral change, nutrition & fitness, positive psychology, and neurolinguistic programming, and infused with sexual energy activation practices and other healing modalities from the ancient Taoism.

A native Armenian, I left my war-ridden post-Soviet motherland in search a better life. Falling sick in my early twenties with a disease conventional medicine could not cure, I embarked on a self-healing journey, culminating in a powerful healing. The experience has inspired me to dedicate my life to empowering people to heal from ailments by embodying a more authentic & aligned way living & well-being. Pursuing my dream, I moved to Rio de Janeiro to become the Founder of the Imbody Wellness Institute (@imbodywellness) and a leader in the Pleasurable Wellness Movement.

I hold a BA in behavioral psychology from UCLA and a master’s in international health policy & economics from the Johns Hopkins University.  Throughout the years, I’ve supported many individuals as a certified Holistic Wellness and Fitness Professional (AFPA, NCCPT, Apex-Fitness), while transforming behaviors & health of populations as an adviser to international institutions for disease prevention.  As a singer & dancer, I love incorporating body & sound into my practice together with energy-healing modalities I’ve acquired, including Jikiden Reiki, Neurolinguistic Programming,  Access Consciousness, and Pranic Healing.
