CitiShakti
Beyond the story there is a field—
I’ll meet you there
You're brilliant, creative, and have moved through the world knowing there’s something more out there. Yet despite all your seeking, something tender and unresolved remains, a layer that most healing work cannot quite touch. This deepest layer is where our work begins.
Ara Khin is a somatic energy healer whose work operates at the level where the analytical mind cannot reach — in the body, subconscious, ancestral field, and the underlying energetic architecture of your system.
Her formation spans 20 years of serious meditation, 9 years of working with shamans and energy healers, and academic training at Harvard and Berkeley. But what distinguishes her is the path she didn’t choose: overcoming complex childhood trauma and a life-threatening chronic illness that conventional medicine said was incurable — and that she ultimately healed anyway. In shamanic traditions across cultures, this is recognized as the foundation of genuine healing capacity: the guide who knows the path because she has walked it.
She works with a small number of clients because the work demands full presence and cannot be scaled. Her gift is the ability to perceive the energetic field with unusual precision — to locate what is actually held there, to attune to the body’s own healing capacity, and to accompany you through the full arc of bringing your system back to wholeness.
Working at the living intersection of somatic attunement, shamanic energy healing, and Akashic field reading, she works with people who are ready to go to deeper with a guide who can genuinely meet them where they are.
What Is CitiShakti?
Citishakti is a Sanskrit word for the union of consciousness and energy — the ecstatic, loving, radiant ground that underlies all of creation. Many traditions carry names for this same presence: Holy Spirit, Rigpa, Ruach Elohim, and the Great Mystery.
Most of us have touched it without knowing what it was. In a moment of profound beauty, or grief, or stillness — something opens. A sense of being held by something larger than yourself. A warmth that has no source. A knowing that arrives without thinking.
This work is about learning to find your way back to that ground—not just in peak moments, but as a living reality you can inhabit. Together, we attune to this field, clear what has accumulated in the body and the energy layers, receive what the ordinary mind cannot access, and allow the intelligence of your own deepest self to show you what needs to heal, and how.
Offerings
-
Somatic Energy Healing
Energy healing accesses our deepest subconscious layers, our bodies, and our intuitive wisdom. It allows us to override our protective minds and allows us the freedom to safely experience, change, and heal wounds that are at the core of our being. Each energy healing session is 90 minutes long and includes a guided meditation and coaching session. You start by grounding into your body and open your chakras to receive loving, peaceful, divine energy that gently shifts layers of conditioning. Energy sessions combine reiki, shamanic energy clearing, channeling spiritual guides, and intuitive readings of where you are and what you’d like to change. Think of it like hypnosis, therapy, somatic experiencing, and meditation all in one.

Guided Shamanic Journey
This is a 2 hour guided shamanic journey using meditation, breath work, drums, channeled singing, and energy healing. You will be transported to another realm in an altered state that is similar to a psychedelic experience but without any drugs. Because you are sober, your mind is fully clear and in control. I help you go into a trance state and see visions, connect with guides and ancestors, and access your own intuitive wisdom. This is a sacred and safe container that I honor deeply so that you can dive deep into your subconscious and connect with the divine. From this state, you can change long held patterns and access a quantum field of consciousness where you can create the reality you would like.

Transformative Coaching
Are you experiencing a spiritual emergency or navigating a kundalini awakening? You may be sensitive and full of potential but haven’t yet stepped into your gifts. You may have had an experience that opened you up but now you need grounding to find your balance and purpose. I would love to help you open your intuitive skills, align your energy, and work on your unique gifts and challenges. I can read your aura, access your Akashic records, help you connect with your spirit guides, change spiritual agreements that leave you stuck, and dispel unwanted entities that may be draining your energy. This is a long path full of many subtle layers. My purpose is to teach and learn with you so that together we can co-create a better world.
How a session feels

"Working with Ara is like being bathed in a warm light. She has a gentle very loving presence that allowed me to feel safe and move so much sadness and fear out of my body. I had this incredible vision of me in a past life where I was hunted for being a witch. She helped me process the fear and guided me gently back into my body. I was crying, shaking, laughing, and finally able to just let go of a deep sigh. Something profound changed and I'm still integrating the lessons that I experienced through the journey."

"Ara's presence is pure light. She guided me with such grace, compassion, and clarity that layers of old energy began to dissolve effortlessly. I feel open now, connected to my heart, and able to truly listen to its desires. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me come home to myself!"

"Ara has a true gift. My session with her revealed I was in the hands of an incredibly powerful healer and I felt the effects for a long time after the session. She helped me move density out of my body and open to a frequency allowing for more light to move in. I am very grateful to be able to work with her."

We usually start with some deep breaths and grounding exercises to help you feel safe. The container we create together is peaceful, protected, and sacred. I will lead you on a guided meditation to open up your chakras and channels to allow the divine energy to flow through you. I may sing or play some instruments to allow the sound to resonate through you and guide you in your journey. Your mind becomes calm, open, and deeply intuitive. Your rational mind takes a back seat and you begin to feel aware of your subconscious. You may feel guided by a loving presence you cannot describe but have felt sometimes call to you. You will be transported to another realm in a trance state. From there, you can listen to the messages of angels, ancestors, spirit guides, and your own intuitive wisdom. You may feel a lot of emotions and see deeply buried memories from this life or past lives. But all of this is shown to you in the most loving and safe way. Usually deep seated subconscious patterns are released through the body through coughing, shaking, burping, laughing, or crying. You may even feel bliss and a sense of universal love so profound that it leaves tears streaming down your eyes. Every session is different, intuitive, and divinely guided. The body, mind, and spirit are all involved and work together to transform you into a more peaceful, clear, strong, and creative version of yourself. You are healing yourself by remembering who you are. I am here simply here as a supportive guide, helping you find your way back home.
