Nestled in the serene beauty of the Comox Valley, I share my life with my husband and our three wonderful children. My name is Nina Zettl, and my life's work is rooted in the belief that holistic healing holds the power to transform lives. With a journey spanning multiple modalities, I am a Yoga Teacher, Birth and Postpartum Doula, Women’s Health Advocate, Mind-Body Therapist, and Reiki Master. I hold a Bachelor of Arts Honours in Psychology from the University of Saskatchewan and am certified as a Master in both Angel Reiki and Holy Fire Reiki. My professional toolkit is enriched by advanced training in Craniosacral Therapy, Yoga, Self-Regulation Therapy, and Childbirth Education.

My love affair with yoga began over twenty-five years ago in childhood, inspired by my mother’s teachings in asana, pranayama, and meditation. In 2012, I formalized my passion by becoming a yoga teacher, and since then, I have amassed over 800 hours of advanced training in styles such as Prana Vinyasa®, Prenatal/Postnatal Yoga, Lila Vinyasa Flow, Vinyasa Krama, SriVidya (Tantric Arts), Trauma-Conscious Yoga, Hatha, and Yin Yoga. With over 3,500 hours of teaching experience, I have guided countless students in studios, retreats, conferences, and festivals across Western Canada.

My journey deepened as I delved into the subtle energy systems of yoga, particularly prana, leading me to study and achieve Master-level certifications in Usui, Holy Fire II, and New Earth Angel Reiki. A growing curiosity about the connection between the nervous system and holistic healing inspired me to pursue advanced training in Self-Regulation Therapy with the Centre Foundation for Trauma Research and Education, as well as Trauma-Conscious Yoga with Judy Weaver. Currently, I am advancing my studies at the Barral Institute in Visceral and Neural Manipulation, further integrating these powerful modalities into my work.

For over a decade, I supported more than 150 families as a Doula, Childbirth Educator, and Prenatal Yoga Teacher, walking alongside them during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. Teaching hundreds of prenatal yoga classes and childbirth education courses during this time brought immense fulfillment and joy. While I have since stepped back from full-time doula work to focus on Manual and Somatic Therapies and pursue a career in counseling, I remain deeply committed to empowering and supporting women and their children in clinical settings.

Today, my wellness offerings are a harmonious blend of Reiki, Craniosacral Therapy, Self-Regulation Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, and mindfulness practices. My mission is to help clients deepen their mind-body-spirit connection, rediscover their innate wisdom, and navigate life’s challenges with greater harmony and ease. Whether through yoga, hands-on healing, or therapeutic guidance, I aim to facilitate a journey of self-discovery and transformation, empowering individuals to embrace their fullest potential.
