EXPERIENCE & HEART TO ELEMENTS
Each woman brings something uniquely her own to the Elements community ~ creating a space where care, experience and well-being come together.
Maura Grant
Owner & Founder of Elements for Conscious Living™
Elements Spa & Wellness
She is a Master Life Coach, Master Practitioner of NLP, Neuro Recode™ practitioner, Chopra Certified Health Coach and Instructor, Reiki practitioner, and lifelong student of consciousness, spirituality, mind-body health and personal transformation.
Her path began more than four decades ago with meditation and a deep curiosity about the connection between the mind, body, emotions, energy
and the way we experience our lives.
For 28 years, Maura worked professionally with the human body, serving thousands of clients through massage, bodywork and energy work. Over time, she began to recognize something deeper: what we carry emotionally and mentally can often be reflected in the way we hold tension, respond to stress and experience our bodies.
That understanding became the bridge between her years of hands-on healing work and the transformational work she does today.
Maura continued her studies through advanced training in coaching, NLP, Neuro Recode™, Ayurveda, health coaching, subconscious transformation, nervous-system awareness, identity and mind-body coherence.
Her spiritual path has also been shaped by decades of exploration in consciousness and by teachers including Dr. Brugh Joy, Deepak Chopra and Dr. Joe Dispenza.
At the heart of Maura’s work is a simple philosophy:
real transformation begins by creating space.
Sometimes that space is physical ~ a quiet room, a healing environment, a place where the body can soften and the outside world can become a little quieter.
And sometimes it is internal ~ space to listen, to question old programming, to release what no longer belongs, and to reconnect with the part of yourself that
already knows what you want next.
For nearly 14 years, Elements has been an expression of that philosophy. It has grown and evolved as Maura has ~from a place centered around massage and bodywork into a space for healing, wellness, transformation, connection and conscious living.
Her own life has been shaped by an ongoing dedication to growth, self-awareness and the willingness to keep becoming. Through life experience, study, spiritual practice, business, relationships and years of working intimately with others, she has come to believe that we are always being invited to know ourselves more deeply and to consciously participate in what we create next.
That belief is woven into the way she works with clients and the way she mentors others.
Maura’s passion is not to tell someone who they should become, but to help create the space where they can recognize what may be holding them back, reconnect with their own wisdom and begin making choices from a place of greater clarity, self-trust, alignment and possibility.
She is deeply grateful to have created and be the steward of Elements, a place in the Murphys community where people can come to rest, heal, grow, reconnect and be supported whether that happens through bodywork, energy work, coaching, conversation, community or simply the feeling of walking through the door and
knowing there is space for you here.
For Maura, it is about helping people remember that growth is possible, change is possible, and that at any stage of life we can begin listening more deeply to ourselves and consciously creating a life that feels more authentic, meaningful and fully our own.
Maura doesn’t simply teach conscious living and transformation. She has spent a lifetime exploring, practicing and embodying it ~ and creating space for others to do the same.
