Hi, I’m DICENTRA.
I am a late diagnosed AuDHD artist and healer who spent the first half of my life struggling to survive chronic illnesses, chronic pain, severe clinical depression/anxiety, OCD, CPTSD and many rare symptoms.
The conditions I had grew so severe that I became homebound for six years and spent two of those years without human contact. I decided I could lay in bed dying or I could learn to meditate and change my state. In a series of near death experiences, I was guided how to heal using meditation and what I didn't yet have a word for at the time—Neuroplasticity. I turned my rigid thinking from an enemy into an ally. I lived like a monk; meditating all day, eating the same thing every day and diving deep into spiritual study.
Step by step I followed what I had been guided to do and with time I healed the long list of "permanent" and "chronic" conditions!" Over the past decade I have immersed myself in studies of herbalism, meditation, yoga philosophy, yoga, movement, sound healing, storytelling, nutrition, neuroscience, psychology and shamanic healing practices from around the world.
I have since discovered these are my special interests and my dharma (offering to the world) is identifying the common thread between these interests and weaving them into a protocol for wellbeing. I’ve cultivated practices and tools based on the wisdom of Neuroplasticity, nature, and ancient spiritual teachings specifically formulated for the Neurodivergent mind.
Together we’ll explore the science of Neuroplasticity and how these tools can be applied to your life, how you can use your Neurodivergent gifts to transmute your perceived weaknesses into strengths and shift your mindset from seeing Neurodiversity as a disability to a superpower that should be celebrated!
