Deanna Lee is a visual artist in Brooklyn, New York (@deannaclee), with extensive experience as a musician. Although her pursuits in these artistic fields over five decades were supportive and rewarding, she struggled with depression throughout her life, which led to suicidal ideation.

Fortunately, several years ago, she found the practice of meditation, which dramatically changed her outlook and led her on a journey of exploring and learning from many healing modalities, including breathwork, somatic techniques, energy work, spiritual practice, and plant medicine.

She sees all of these approaches as aspects of a broad toolkit: different access points and pathways that are available for any person to rediscover the truth and authenticity within them, their innate capacity for healing, and the creativity that is every person’s eternal birthright.

She feels that we all know this, subconsciously, but we have for many different reasons forgotten it . . . And we can help each other to come back home to our true selves, to remember our divine nature, and to embrace our immense potential.

Deanna’s mission now is to help others, to spread awareness of this really good news:
We are not broken. Even though feeling stuck can seem so permanent and overwhelming, we have the capacity to emerge from our challenges with more energy, more vitality, and the possibility for deep transformation—especially now.
