Solace Mind® was founded in 2018 by Marine Corps veteran and RYT®500 yoga teacher, Sylvia Feliciano. Sylvia has her master’s in public administration from the prestigious National Urban Fellows program and has an extensive background in corporate performance, compliance, and strategic advisement. Throughout her career, her passion has always been the well-being of her community. This passion would take her to live in India, where she learned of different healing modalities used for centuries to heal the mind, body, and spirit.

Some of Sylvia’s multiple certifications and training include Suicide and Crisis Intervention, Substance Use Disorders and Recovery, Verbal De-escalation, iRest Yoga Nidra, Warriors at Ease, Trauma Recovery Yoga, Trauma Yoga for Children, Regression Therapy, and Holistic Life Coaching, among others. She can incorporate a combination of healing modalities into stress management and emotional intelligence programs specific to the unique needs of an organization, group, and individual. She also provides children with emotional intelligence and mindfulness exercises, meditation, and yoga.

Sylvia’s mission is to incorporate emotional intelligence, stress management, resiliency tools and techniques, education, and awareness into her life coaching program and bring healing modalities to the workplace and communities. Her trauma-informed approach enables a safe and engaging learning environment.

Sylvia provides onsite workshops and instruction and seeks to make stress management and resiliency programs even more accessible by partnering with public, private, military, and non-profit organizations.
