At the heart of Sivitri's life and work is a love of the natural world and a curiosity about the true nature of our essence.

All of her endeavours stem from a desire to create beauty and to communicate the pure truth of beauty, within and without.

She is captivated by the intricate layers of nature, music, our bodies and minds, as well as the subconscious drivers of our expressive selves.

Her mission, through her art, writing and intuitive guidance work, is to bring awareness to our true nature in order to thoroughly express ourselves and therefore heal and thrive.

Born in Africa, Sivitri’s creative journey began as a dancer, at age 4. She studied many forms of dance extensively, eventually traveling and performing on stages all over the world.

She taught herself photography, digital design and mixed media art which became a love as she traveled and discovered the layers of the world and herself.

Not desiring to focus on one creative path, she chose to combine photography and digital design work into multimedia performance explorations, projecting photographic images over her body canvas as she danced - a fusion of nature and the human form which was the externalised version of what would later become, through somatic inquiry, the exploration of the internal world of our bodies and the nature of life itself; energetically, emotionally, and physically.

Simultaneously, the exploration of her creativity and world travels converged as she delved into the healing arts. She honed her energy healing skills, studied herbology, clairvoyant healing & reading, and became an intuitive coach. Dance also shifted from a technical art-form to an intuitive one which became a healing practice which she combined with The Beauty Way, after studying with The Centre of Indigenous Arts in Marin, California, and she created her own movement modality to guide students into self-awareness, creativity, and healing.

On this, mostly archival website, you can catch a glimpse of Sivitri’s avenues of work which include intuitive guidance sessions, design, writing, retreats, and more...

Her new website, coming in 2027 (soulessence.net) will combine select avenues of work with more of a focus on her healing arts business. Stay tuned.

“I have come to learn that all our experiences are our teachers. All of it has value.

Through my art and being, I believe it is my mission to remind people of beauty and the essence of themselves reflected in it.

My inspiration comes primarily from nature, especially flowers, music, light, and the multifaceted layers of the beautiful as well as the mundane, to reveal the heart of simplicity within the complex and vice versa.

Photographing nature is a meditation for me. It is a sacred and thrilling experience to be focused on the centre of a flower, as the light changes and reveals the most intricate of details. The miracle and genius of nature is mind-boggling. I feel it is my duty to share what I see.

I believe by observing, appreciating, and learning from the artistry and grace of nature that we can transform ourselves as well as the planet. Similarly, by observing and becoming aware of our feeling bodies we come to recognise the messages, nuances, and intelligence contained within and therefore come to know ourselves, which, in and of itself, is healing. All my avenues of work and the healing practices I have developed are designed to do just that."
