Transformative Couples Connection Experience
The missing piece to your relationship:
a whole Body Experience
Empowering emotional and physical intimacy
Hi lover, I’m Lumalia, a couples connection architect at Celebrate Again.
I’m here guiding couples like yourself back to the romance they know they have but sometimes forget where it is.
spoiler alert, it’s in you:
a whole body, mind, heart connection.
What is a Couples Connection Experience?
- Simplified emotional and physical intimacy through mind-body connections: Dive deep into the world of embodiment (connecting your mind and body), somatic practices (modalities that look at the body holding memory), and mind-body work, uncovering their potent healing abilities—achievements that traditional conversations and talk therapy might take years to reach.
- Fun & Uniting: Discover how these somatic couples connection experiences and practices aren’t just transformative; they’re also incredibly fun ways to communicate, break down barriers, and simply enjoy being together.
- Playful Learning: Embrace embodiment… in short, our time together will be filled with playful exploration and meaningful learning. With my unique guidance, experience with couples for 15 years, and specific trainings and certifications you’ll find yourselves reconnecting and rediscovering each other in ways you never imagined possible.
Many believe that healing in relationships comes from endless discussions, pushing harder, and doing more.
I'm here to guide you towards reconnection
I’m here empowering healing that allows you to tap into the wisdom already
residing within you.

About Moi
I asked him, do you want to have this life with me?
I’d been deeply dreaming, feeling, reading passionate poetry, watching a lifetime of rom-coms, hell, I even made a damn career out of romanticizing relationships as a couple and wedding photographer for 15 years.
And my body knew.
My body knew so deeply it could feel madly, wildly crazy passion on a daily basis. It could feel so adored and cherished that if the sun could come out and warm my skin and feel like I was alive, so could I with my partner.
We could hold hands and act like children skipping down the Oregon sand dunes.
We could run naked into the freezing Pacific and spend the rest of the evening warming each other back up.
We could build incredible things together with our creativity, passion, and love for making this life ridiculously stunning.
So I asked my husband of 10 years, do you want to do this with me?
And he said, “That sounds nice, but more as friends. So, no, not married.”
It was then that I realized I needed to divorce him.
Ok, wait, hold the phone, Lumalia. Are you telling me this divorce story on a couples connection landing page? Yes. Hang with me.
He said no because he was too terrified of being fully loved in the way I was finally opening myself up to live a ridiculously incredible life.
Yes, with chores still, and householding, and arguments and children, god, they are a lot sometimes, but we love them, don’t we? Right?
My husband of 10 years said no. So I finally said goodbye. And, god, I’m going to be wildly honest with you: I met my current husband the very next day.
And he and I have been saying yes to each other through it allllllllll
Do we have arguments? Yes. Do we sometimes not understand each other? Yes. Do we have a blended family with very intense moments sometimes that make us question everything? Yes. But the most important thing we have that I chose is a stunning life together.
Each day, we ask each other to marry each other as we slip our rings on.
We linger in the kitchen on our work-from-home life coffee breaks extra long for hugs and kisses.
We run into each other’s arms often.
We’ve skipped down the Oregon sand dunes.
And wandered nude in too many forests.
We got married barefoot in one.
And we’re only three years in. It’s not easy, but it’s stunning.
So why share all this with you?
Because somewhere in you, you want the same. You enjoy a stunning, breathtaking, wholesome, passionate relationship with your partner. You want to feel connected, adored, cherished, celebrated, witnessed, powerful, and full of undescribable peace with someone.
And I’m here to tell you, it’s not just in knowing information but more about giving permission to experiencing each other.

Hello lovely, I’m first an artist, a great explorer, and a curious creator of all the beautiful things of what it means to be alive.
I’ve been working with couples for 15 years now.
Even when I was only working as a photographer with couples, I had couples telling me the time we spent together was some of
the most beautiful times they’d had together in a while.
This is why I knew this work was important. I kept falling in love with
how to go deeper.
I’m a certified 200-hour yoga teacher with the Yoga Alliance and a certified Kindred Meditation teacher.
I’ve studied alongside Dr. Chelsea Page on intimacy, Jesh De Rox, a cultural anthropologist in human behaviors and somatic meditation, and Amy Rachelle, an intuitive energy healer, and licensed therapist.
I’m deeply steeped in somatic work, neuroscience, and personal development.

Darling, it's going to be incredible

Experiences change us.
This is why my couple’s connection work is a whole-body experience. They hit our subconscious, hit our whole bodies, hit our pasts and our futures.
Experiences land us in our bones.

Example of Mind-Body Connections
Sex.
Sex is a mind-body connection.
Dancing
Singing
Eating
It is anything where we set an intention and pair our mind with our body.
However, we’ll be embarking on a unique journey of discovering harmony between the mind and body, as opposed to the common notion of controlling our body with our mind. Instead of the usual “mind over matter” approach, we’ll learn to listen to our bodies as we connect with our mind, following sensations and visuals rather than forcing them.
Will there be yoga?
Yes, in some ways, but not in the traditional sense. Our program invites mind-body connections without the cultural baggage that yoga might carry for some. We prefer to think of our activities as exercises rather than yoga, even though I am a yoga teacher. This gives you the power to shape your own experience.
However, if you have a fondness for yoga, in the bonus Celebrate Again Membership there’s an entire library of videos I’ve created over the years for you to enjoy. These are also beginner-friendly, ensuring everyone can participate and benefit.
What if I don’t like meditations?
I get you. Sitting still can feel boring. Honestly, I didn’t like meditation until I learned one of the modalities I’ll be sharing with you called Kindred, which pairs movement with visualizations and guided meditation. It invites movement on your terms and is the most fun meditation I’ve ever done. And, well, everyone I’ve taught for the past three years. People say things like I didn’t know this could be so fun, and my cheeks hurt so much, and how good it feels to share without words… wait, I bet it’s going to rock your world like it did mine.
We often think of yoga or meditation and breathe work. And those things come with a lot of weight and meaning depending on who you are and your background. While we will use concepts from these areas, the experiences you’ll be going on will first involve your imagination and invite your body into the whole experience.
Does anyone else like good savings?
- Just think that traditional talk therapy costs $200 per hour; it would take six months of just talk therapy to get where we are going in just 6 weeks, which would cost $4800. That is a $3912 savings. You’re welcome.
Refunds: I’m a fan, too:
I believe that if you commit to showing up to the classes and doing the creative experiences with open hearts, you will wonder why I charged you so little. 😉 However, I’m all about investments feeling so good, so I’m offering that by week 3, if you and your partner have both shown up for all the live classes with an open heart, fully participated in the creative exercises, and are not seeing any improvements in your relationship I honestly want you to save every single penny and get traditional couples therapy, so I’m making this fully refundable by week three or April 7th.
Disclaimers:
If you are experiencing any forms of physical or emotional abuse from your partner, I strongly advise you to reach out to the domestic violence hotline 1-800-799-7233 and know that there is support for you, which is, unfortunately, not this program.
If you and your partner are on the brink of a divorce, cannot communicate at all together, or are in a lot of solid verbal disputes, I do encourage the support of a talk therapist before entering into this program.
Lumalia is not a licensed clinician. Although she is a certified yoga and meditation teacher, it is advised that you seek professional release and care to participate in any of these activities if you have a specific diagnosis.
This program is not meant to treat or diagnose anyone.
Let's Create A Garden of Growth
We’re cultivating a garden of growth: a wild place inside of you two that is full of the most delicious fruits. Soon you’ll find your hands sticky, your mouths watering, and your bellies so full and satisfied in yourselves and each other. I cannot wait for you to experience this.
With all my heart,
Lumalia
