We are the healers we’ve been waiting for.
And the path home is not one of striving—but of remembering.


I’m Pennie Nichols, the founder of Enlightened Living—a sanctuary for soul-led beings ready to live, lead, and serve from the wholeness of who they are.

As a Vedic Astrologer, Transformation Doula, and devotee of the Divine Feminine, I walk with those—especially women—who are awakening to the inner knowing within. My work is rooted in both the ancient wisdom of the Yog-Vedantic tradition and the living transmission of Mary Magdalene, whose essence continues to reveal itself through pilgrimage, practice, and presence.

Through this sacred fusion—Jyotish, Ayurveda, Kriya, mantra, meditation, Reiki, and Divine Feminine remembrance—I offer guidance that is both cosmically precise and deeply embodied.

The Path I Walk

For over two decades, I’ve studied both allopathic and holistic systems of medicine alongside deep immersion in the Vedic sciences and healing arts. My path has included over a decade of advanced training in yoga, meditation, Ayurveda, Reiki, esoteric medicine, Jyotish astrology, Yoga Nidra, Kundalini science, and sacred feminine traditions.

I’ve completed advanced yoga teacher trainings beyond the 500-hour level, trained as a Reiki Master and Teacher in Rishikesh, and completed an 18-month apprenticeship in Soul Focused Healing—a Tibetan lineage of esoteric medicine. My studies have also included extensive mentorship with renowned teachers, as well as training in Vedic astrology, functional medicine, animal communication, Vastu, cacao medicine, and the devotional paths of the Divine Feminine.

In 2018, Mary Magdalene began stirring within me—a whisper in the dark, a remembrance in my bones. I journeyed solo to the South of France, walking the lands where She once lived, prayed, and taught. Since then, I’ve been devoted to walking the Way of Magdalene—and supporting others in reconnecting with Her living presence.

Why I Do This Work

I’m here for those who are waking up—
The healers, the space-holders, the change-makers.
Those who feel the call to serve from a deeper place.
To lead not through performance, but through presence.

While my work is especially attuned to the feminine essence and the reclamation of Her wisdom, it is open to all who feel the call—regardless of gender identity. The soul transcends form, and this path is for anyone ready to walk in devotion, courage, and Truth.

My mission is to empower 1,000 dharmic practitioners to live in alignment with their highest essence—so they can ripple healing into their families, communities, and the collective.

“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.”
