At the core of our mission...
The Loving Peace is a sacred haven created by Yajaira an Indigenous and queer woman dedicated to cultivating a welcoming, affirming space for every person, regardless of background or identity.
My heartfelt intention is for you to leave each session feeling not only mentally and emotionally renewed, but also deeply empowered.
Together, we will gently explore beyond your comfort zone and welcome new experiences at your own pace. While this journey may sometimes feel unfamiliar or challenging, you will be met with steady compassion, care, and support every step of the way.
Yaya
My name is Yajaira, though most people call me Yaya. I’m a proud Bronx native. I am a child of that beautiful melting pot of music, people, culture, inspiration, and pure feel-good vibras.
Growing up Indigenous and bilingual deeply shaped the way I move through the world. It gave me a profound love for diversity, as well as a heart rooted in justice, healing, connection, and community.
​
As a spiritual guide, teacher, and sacred-space holder, I bring authenticity, gentleness, and warmth to everything I offer. I am a trauma-informed, 300-hour Registered Yoga Teacher, with a special focus on Yin Yoga, trauma awareness, and intergenerational healing.
Along my journey, I’ve had the blessing of learning from extraordinary teachers and mentors. Sharing the practices and healing modalities that have supported me is one of my greatest joys.
​
Whether you are taking your very first steps into spirituality, finding your way back home to yourself, or deepening a path you have already been walking, you are welcome here... exactly as you are. I can’t wait to meet you, hold space with you, and walk alongside you on this journey.
Con amor siempre, (w/ love always)
Yaya
Cat
I'm Cathy, a seasoned healthcare professional dedicated to holistic wellness and reproductive health. With over eight years of experience, I've honed my expertise in both primary care and specialized sexual and reproductive health services.
As an adult primary care nurse practitioner since 2016, I've diligently managed a diverse range of chronic and acute conditions, from hypertension and diabetes to chronic pain and mental health disorders. My commitment to comprehensive care extends to preventative screenings and wellness exams, ensuring proactive health management for all my patients.
In my current role, I've transitioned into the dynamic realm of sexual and reproductive health, where my deep understanding of the complexities of the human body shines. Specializing in diagnosing and treating STIs, providing contraception options, and conducting pelvic exams, I approach each patient encounter with empathy, expertise, and unwavering professionalism.
Drawing from my background in telemetry/medical-surgical nursing and emergency department care, I bring a wealth of clinical knowledge and critical thinking skills to every aspect of my practice. My dedication to continuous learning and staying abreast of the latest advancements ensures that my patients receive the highest standard of care.
Beyond my clinical prowess, I take immense pride in my identity as a queer, Latiné healthcare provider. Being bilingual and bicultural allows me to connect with a diverse range of patients, fostering an inclusive and culturally sensitive healthcare environment.
Recognizing the intricate connection between mind, body, and spirit, I've seamlessly integrated my spiritual practice into my medical approach. By acknowledging the role of energy in physical health, particularly in the pelvic region, I offer a unique holistic treatment modality through womb massages, providing relief and restoration to my patients.
Ultimately, I view healing not only as a profession but as a profound calling—one that I embrace with passion, integrity, and a relentless commitment to excellence. It's an honor to serve my community and guide individuals on their journey toward optimal health and wellbeing.
