About The Speaker:

Nayeli Garci-Crespo is a mind-body coach, a Havening Techniques practitioner, and a certified Realization Process meditation and embodiment teacher specializing in creative processes and high sensitivity. Her interests include flow and liminal states, the subconscious, laughter, lucid dreaming, interpersonal neurobiology, somatic parts work, and art and play as processes for self discovery and healing. In addition to being a coach, she is also a writer, multidisciplinary artist, and creative consultant with a Ph.D. in cultural studies, film, and media from Duke University’s Graduate Program in Literature, an M.A. in Latin American literature from Columbia University, and a B.A. in creative writing and philosophy from the University of Southern California, where she took courses in neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy of mind, and volunteered as an art therapist at a Los Angeles County Community Counseling Services halfway house. After a long detour working in the film & TV industry, among other odd jobs in creative content creation and support, she spiraled back to her interest in the interface between art and wellness, founding the artist/therapist/practitioner collective Feral Flow Lab in 2019 with the intention of co-creating collaborative spaces for healing and transformation through expressive arts and the body.
