about

Marissa Steinberger

My work has always focused on discovering ways to nurture my body, heart, and mind, then sharing that knowledge with others. My health and life challenges have been my greatest teachers. Health struggles as a child led my family to seek alternative health practitioners. A naturopath guided me to the healing properties of food and herbs, as well as meditation and visualization—tools that became foundational in my life. It was the first time I saw the connection between my inner world and my physical health. 

Growing up in New Mexico, around artists, big skies, and spiritual centers, I developed an appreciation for spirituality, meditation, music, and all forms of healing. Later, my experiences at Plum Village with Thich Nhat Hanh and time spent in India deepened my meditation and spiritual practice. My first career was in wellness as a massage therapist and esthetician. I trained in sound healing in 2007, which I found particularly transformative. It bridged various aspects of my life, transcended belief systems, and promoted relaxation and stress relief. I started leading sound meditation groups in 2009. My passion for the healing arts led me to pursue an education in the scientific foundations focusing on the body and brain. 

Now, I integrate my education in Biopsychology, sound healing, meditation, and wellness coaching to empower others in their self-care. I  use sound, HeartMath, and breath work sessions to explore how the inner world can impact stress relief and stress resilience fostering holistic well-being. My own daily practice has profoundly changed my capacity to interact with the world. The experiences of marriage and motherhood have become a  labratory for me, opportunities to test my practices and return to my heart in real time. I aspire to be of service to the greater good, holding close the heartfelt prayer: May all beings be happy, May all beings be well.

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom.” —Viktor Frankl
