my studio is an expression of love
Ginger E. Smith, PhD
artist + energy intuitive
We are artists of our human experience, shaping our reality with each thought and emotion. Since awakening to this deeper understanding, I know my purpose is to help others connect with their authenticity and intuition.
I was born with an intense curiosity and sensitivity, which led me to explore multiple career paths and diverse fields of study. Although my path meandered, in hindsight, it was an essential aspect of my journey towards awareness. In the midst of it, I felt truly lost!
My heart was chasing connection but my mind saw it through the lens of chasing accolades and figuring out my niche. I eventually settled into art history, focusing on contemporary art, earning a doctorate, and spending nearly three years working in assessment development. My PhD journey became both my unraveling and my salvation--it sparked a profound spiritual awakening. After two years post-doctorate, I found myself deeply unfulfilled, feeling quiet murmurings within that urged me to explore areas of myself that I'd suppressed for a long time.
Thankfully, I already had a powerful tool for healing to help me negotiate this awakening. As a yoga practitioner, I'd often experience cathartic release from emotional density during asana. Initially my focus was my own mental health and self-inquiry, but I soon wanted to share what had helped me. Since 2018, I have devoted my life to sharing yoga and techniques of energetic alignment to aid others on their personal wellness journeys. My art practice integrates intuitive energy work with a strong desire to reveal and celebrate authenticity.
