About
Welcome. I am Sheena Hampton-Johnson, the founder of Zyah Healing Arts. As a certified healing-centered coach (Conductor 243), healing arts practitioner, and movement artist, my work is rooted in a simple but profound truth: true healing is inseparable from liberation. With over two decades of experience navigating leadership, movement infrastructure, and the arts as a Black queer non-binary femme, I have learned that sustainable change requires us to tend to our inner sanctuaries just as fiercely as we tend to the world around us.
Through Zyah Healing Arts, I weave together somatic awareness, intuitive coaching, and restorative energy work to create a soft place to land. My practice is dedicated to helping you slow down, reclaim your rhythm, and honor your body's wisdom as a living archive of truth.
Why Connect With Me?
In a world that constantly demands our labor, urgency, and output, choosing to pause is a revolutionary act. All offerings can be tailored for 1:1 engagement or groups. You might choose to step into this space with me if you are:
-
Seeking a Restorative Sanctuary: Ready to transition away from burnout and urgency culture into a intentional "slow life" rooted in grounding, rest, and personal care.
-
Ready for Somatic & Embodied Healing: Wanting to move beyond just talking about transformation and begin feeling it, using movement and somatic awareness to release stored tension and trauma.
-
Navigating Transitions: A leader, advocate, or changemaker looking for a deeply supportive, non-judgmental space to integrate your public purpose with your private peace.
Here, I don't just clear space for healing, I cultivate the freedom to simply be. Let's walk this path toward your wholeness together.
Where Healing Meets Liberation.

At Zyah Healing Arts, every offering is an invitation to slow down, return to your body, and reclaim your inherent freedom. Whether you are looking for deep individual containment or a transformative space for your community, these pathways are designed to help you transition from urgency to alignment.
Executive & Life Transition Coaching
For leaders, changemakers, and individuals navigating profound shifts. True leadership and meaningful life transitions require a steady inner foundation. If you are navigating burnout, shifting professional landscapes, or intentionally designing a slower, more grounded pace of life, this coaching space is a soft place to land. Together, we will honor where you have been, integrate your public purpose with your private peace, and build a sustainable framework for your next chapter.
Group Facilitation & Retreat Design
For organizations, networks, and collectives seeking intentional gathering. Transformation happens in community, but only when the container is safe enough to hold it. I design and facilitate immersive group experiences, workshops, and wellness retreats that prioritize collective care, grounding, and somatic renewal. Moving away from rigid agendas, these curated spaces are intentionally paced to allow for deep reflection, authentic connection, and communal healing.
Creative Arts & Inquiry: Artist & Writer
For creatives, communities and individuals exploring the intersection of embodiment and liberation. Creativity is a somatic doorway to truth. Through durational movement based art, writing, and interdisciplinary storytelling, I offer creative collaborations, workshops, and speaking engagements that explore the body as a living archive. This work is for those who want to use art and narrative as a liberatory tool—turning movement into a prayer and storytelling into a pathway for collective freedom.
OFFERINGS
"Zyah Healing Arts" Name Origin: Zyah draws its name from Zya, a global word signifying "light, radiance, and inner wisdom." Holding equal roots across African, Arabic, East Asian, Hebrew, and South Asian traditions, it reflects a universal reverence for illuminating space and cultivating graceful awareness. By adding the H, we bring the framework of "Light Healing" into everything we do.
