ABOUT NICOLE

Nicole Benisch is the founder of Light Spirit Essentials, Reyna Collective and Alchemia Sound. She offers a grounded approach to holistic wellbeing and spirituality, incorporating meditation, sound healing, reiki, and aromatherapy.

Nicole started singing and playing musical instruments at a very young age, and has always had an intuitive understanding of the healing power of music. Guided by that inner-knowing, over the past 12 years Nicole has honed her musical abilities through deep plant medicine explorations and self-study . She has held space for dozens of weekend retreats, for hundreds of people, during which she did intense personal shadow work, as well as learned how to use music to intentionally support the body’s natural capacity for healing and catharsis. She began sharing songs during savasana in her yoga classes, then started collaborating with other musicians on music + yoga workshops, and eventually started writing her own music, mostly acapella, melodic vocals.

In 2018, Nicole invested in a set of crystal alchemy singing bowls for support with processing grief during a period of profound loss, and they have since become the centerpiece of the Alchemia Sound experience, her most creatively inspiring and fulfilling project to date.

Whether you are in search of support with prep or integration for your psychedelic plant medicine work, or looking for a gentler, less physically and mentally taxing way to experience catharsis and transformation, or just generally looking for support on your healing journey, Nicole is at your service.

She is a certified Yoga Instructor (YogaWorks 2009), Herbalist (Peeka Trenkle 2014) and Reiki Master (Asa Angel Holistic Healing 2022). She studies music and vocal technique with Greg Sherrod.
