Julie Ann Otis, CEO and Founder of Samana Consulting & Healing
Bridging the 5D and 3D
Julie Ann brings a positive psychology approach to consciousness expansion and business development - affirming ease, pleasure, and humor as essential to the process.
Julie Ann Otis founded Samana Consulting & Healing in 2014 with the mission of empowering people to radically change their reality. “Ease. for. every. body.” is the transmission she channels through her teachings and healing work. As our planetary transformation unweaves the spells of domination and separateness, Julie Ann offers expert guidance in unwiring old systems from our individual and universal experience through applied metaphysics.
In her work with clients, Julie Ann opens channels to internal (intuitive) and external (spiritual) guidance through the bridge of somatic and imaginal spaces. Julie Ann is a consultant, metaphysician, shamanic healer, poet and mystic with a diverse range of practices in energy healing, shamanic journeying, artistic practices, meditation, applied metaphysics, and somatic therapy. Her spiritual lineages include the Sun Bear tribe, Christian mysticism, and Buddhist psychology.
“By working with with Julie Ann, I turned up the dial on embodying delight, spiritual confidence, inner attunement, and courage, and redefined what work, leadership, service, and healing means to me.” - Ashley D.
Scientific, Spiritual, Life-Changing
Julie Ann is passionate about bridging evidence-based science and spiritual experience for high-level leaders and spiritual athletes who want to create and mold new realities through pathways that are pleasureful and easeful. She supports clients in accessing their innate imaginal intelligence, somatic intelligence, and intuitive intelligence, alchemizing these with their curiosity, analytical strength, and current AI interfaces.
Julie Ann acts as a consultant and channel, upgrading clients' intuitive operating systems so they can navigate consciousness-expanding experiences, personal healing, and business growth with clarity, sovereignty, and grace. She provides recalibration for deeper embodiment and easier answers.
“After working with Julie Ann, my heart is available in such a different way. Wow - Que fuerte! I am so grateful for her capacity to hold a safe, inviting, powerful space of creativity. I experienced a sense of generative energy, beautiful, powerful, and immensely rare. Julie Ann - gracias for the coaching into an enlivening ground, gracias for your exquisite capacity to facilitate this very fine tuned healing.” - Cecilia R.
How Did We Get Here?
Julie Ann Otis has been nerd'ing out on consciousness-expansion since she was 12 years old. Her background includes somatic therapy, energy healing, neurobiology, Jugian active imagination practices, Buddhist psychology, indigenous and shamanic healing traditions, and post-materialist cosmology.
Julie Ann Otis is a pioneer in emergent intelligence training and has taught hundreds of leaders how to connect with their internal guidance and collective consciousness. She draws on 23 years of experience in Buddhist psychology, Theravada meditation practices, neurobiology, artistic practices, East Asian healing arts, and Indigenous and First Nations’ healing traditions in Indonesia, Colombia, Costa Rica, and the United States. She has also studied with Seven Stones Leadership, the Focusing Institute, Spirit Rock Meditation Center, Insight Meditation Society, Cambridge Insight Meditation Center, the Authentic Movement and Contemplative Dance Community, and Dell'Arte International.
Julie Ann is proud to be in the Disco Expert Network of the Disco Community, offering curated monthly experiences that explore the magic of being human with others interested in consciousness expansion.
Healing in Public
Julie Ann’s ecstatic spiritual awakening in 2011 and the subsequent unfolding of her life’s work have given her first-hand evidence of the guidance available from the collective consciousness and other unseen intelligences as we heal, grow, and create the world in which we want to live. Her awakening led to seven years of work as a poet and multi-media civic engagement artist.
Julie Ann has created interactive art installations for the Institute for Contemporary Art Boston, Boston Center for the Arts, the American Repertory Theater, the City of Boston, and Harvard University. She has also published three volumes of poetry and performed at poetry festivals in Mexico, Honduras, Peru, and the United States. She is best known for her installations American Therapy (2014) and Live Nude Girls (2021).
In 2022, Julie Ann made a conscious choice to shift the context of her work fully out of public art and into consulting, therapeutic, and healing practice due to the gross undervaluation of artistic practice in the U.S.
