We are the healers we’ve been looking for all along . With a holistic approach to wellness, health becomes the new norm: a way of Life.


Hello! My name is Pennie Nichols, the visionary behind Enlightened Living, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to a transformative journey. As a Vedic astrologer and transformation doula, I specialize in guiding holistic health practitioners to unlock their inherent power through the art of transformational technology. With these powerful tools, we cut karmic ties swiftly, allowing you to step into your dharma and cultivate a life you genuinely love.

In my offerings, I blend Yog-Vedantic wisdom, Kriya, tantra, mantra, meditation, and pranayama into a seamless, integrated practice designed to support profound and holistic healing. This approach goes beyond traditional methods, fostering complete and radical transformation.

My mission is deeply rooted in supporting the global awakening of consciousness. I am dedicated to empowering 1000 holistic healers and teachers to wholeheartedly embrace the calling of their hearts. I am enthusiastic about creating connections within a network of holistic practitioners committed to making a positive impact in their communities.

Let's embark on this journey together, where empowerment, transformation, and connection pave the way for a life that resonates with your soul's purpose. I look forward to connecting with you and being a catalyst for positive change in the world.

“Yoga is practice that is wide as the ocean. As with anything that is practiced widely, there is a large variation in what is taught. There is nothing wrong with practicing yoga as simply as good exercise and people will benefit, as they would from any exercise. That is the surface of yoga. There is a depth to yoga that is sometimes missed. Once one understands a wave on the surface of the ocean is caused by something deeper, something that is powerful and elemental, the underlying strength of the ocean is realized. When people have this deep understanding about yoga, they become the heart of the ocean. Just as the body cannot live without the heart, yoga would perish without these rare individuals. That is why I attend Pennie’s classes - I want to experience more than just what is on the surface. I want to be close to the living, beating heart of life. She is That.”
