Before she became a wellness practitioner and founder of Drishana Wellness, Shana Weinstein lived a life in the spotlight—attending red carpet events, auditioning in Hollywood, and navigating an industry that placed relentless pressure on image and perfection.

But behind the scenes, Shana was privately battling body dysmorphia, disordered eating, and chronic stress—symptoms of a body and mind pushed far from center. When medical professionals told her she would likely need to rely on medication for the rest of her life, something within her rebelled.

“That moment changed everything. I turned inward and began searching for answers outside of the system that had failed me.”

What followed was a 20-year transformation that led to the creation of Drishana Wellness—a space rooted in Ayurvedic medicine, somatic therapy, nervous system restoration, and the belief that healing is not about fixing—it’s about remembering.

🌀 Reclaiming the Body’s Wisdom

Shana’s journey began with a simple yet profound shift: she started listening to her body instead of overriding it.

As she healed, she trained extensively—earning certifications in:

  • Ayurvedic medicine
  • Massage therapy
  • Reiki (Levels I & II)
  • Somatic therapy
  • Breathwork and yoga
  • Trauma-informed coaching

She also carries over 30 years of improvisational theater training, which she seamlessly weaves into her group wellness work.

Today, her integrative practice blends science, spirit, and embodied presence—offering:

  • Ayurvedic assessments & constitution balancing
  • Nervous system regulation techniques
  • Energy healing and clearing
  • Mindful meal planning and digestion support
  • Trauma-informed movement and talk-based sessions
  • Corporate and group resilience programs

✨ From Crisis to Calling

At Drishana Wellness, Shana now works with a wide range of high-performing individuals—including professional athletes, creatives, executives, and mental health practitioners—helping them find safety, clarity, and vitality in their own skin.

“I listen to the body’s story. I help clients feel safe enough to slow down, reconnect, and allow healing to happen from the inside out.”

She’s been trusted to deliver custom wellness experiences for organizations like the Miami Heat, Miami Dolphins, and leadership teams navigating burnout, anxiety, and transition.

Whether through private sessions in Antioch, California or national retreats and virtual offerings, her work helps clients dismantle survival-based patterns and return to a state of grounded resilience.

🎭 Laughter as Medicine

While her 1:1 sessions are often quiet, deeply restorative, and introspective, Shana also facilitates play-based workshops for teams and organizations seeking community-centered healing.

Through offerings like “Play to Thrive” and “Improv for the Nervous System,” she helps groups release tension, build trust, and rewire stress responses—together.

“Laughter disarms the nervous system. It helps people soften and open. Healing doesn’t have to be heavy to be effective.”

It’s this fusion of joy, safety, and somatic wisdom that makes her work so distinctive.

🌿 Her Philosophy

“Healing isn’t fixing—it’s remembering.”

To Shana, healing means returning to the parts of ourselves we abandoned to survive—offering those parts the safety they never had.

Balance isn’t something we achieve once and for all; it’s something we practice. Every boundary. Every breath. Every belly laugh is part of that practice.

“Your authenticity isn’t risky. It’s your superpower.”

🔮 What’s Next for Drishana Wellness

Shana is expanding her reach beyond one-on-one sessions, with several new offerings in development:

  • A group program combining nervous system work and creative expression
  • An immersive retreat featuring Ayurvedic healing, bodywork, rest, and nature
  • Team-based workshops that center laughter, presence, and emotional regulation for leaders, therapists, and organizations

Her vision is to create more spaces where people feel safe enough to slow down, breathe, and come home to the wisdom they already carry.
