We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Kelsea Mazzocco a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Kelsea, appreciate you joining us today. Over the course of your career, have you seen or experienced your field completely flip-flop or change course on something?

In 2017, I was a successful Realtor in the Long Beach area and became the owner and founder of Go Inward. The Community Sanctuary was such a special space for healing, reflection, self-care, energy movement, training, and education for the whole human. Go Inward was birthed from my personal journey with trauma and life challenges, as most wonderful things in life are. I experienced the fork in the road that happens when ego (earth-life) meets spirit (soul journey)—a process I describe as becoming a true Human Being. My transformation came through a challenging six-year infertility struggle that included a brief miscarriage and breaking my leg two months later. This tumultuous period became the catalyst for my deep immersion into Kundalini Yoga Teacher training, which eventually led to the creation of Go Inward.
Through Go Inward, I offered a variety of healing modalities and transformative practices that aimed to shift perception, anchor awareness in the present moment, and foster emotional regulation and nervous system balance. These methods also enhanced connection to one’s inner self and divine wisdom, allowing individuals to tap into their innate ability to heal and cultivate a deeper sense of love within and around them.
Due to the impact of COVID-19, Go Inward closed its doors, but my mission continues as I come back to my roots as an energy healing practitioner, teacher, and body worker. This new iteration of my practice, including the potent mixed modality of Spinal Energetics, continues to offer the same transformative healing modalities and practices.
Embarking on the journey of becoming a spiritual teacher of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation Technology and a Spinal Energetics Practitioner, along with a daily self-care practice, has fulfilled the yearnings of my soul. I am now open to serving myself and others in a whole new way. It’s fun. It’s a serious passion. I truly feel I am living out my Destiny.
In a beautiful twist of fate, all these practices and the resilience I cultivated led to the most miraculous gift of all: the birth of my daughter, Rumi Rose, who is now three years old. Rumi Rose embodies the love and transformation that my journey represents, a testament to the power of healing and the miracles that can unfold when one stays true to their path.

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?

My Name is Kelsea Mazzocco. I am a Kundalini Meditation and Yoga Teacher, a Spinal Energetics Practitioner, a Transpersonal Body/Mind Energy Therapist, and a Holographic Sound Healer. With 27 years of experience in various forms of yoga, meditation, and energy work, I have a passionate calling for everything Kundalini!
I truly believe that energy is everything and feel so lucky to be at a place in my life to share my gifts that have influenced my life with this beautiful community!
I became a massage therapist at the age of 20 while attending Santa Barbara City College. I moved to Los Angeles to pursue the creative arts, including acting and dancing, while doing bodywork to pay the bills. I deepened my practice by moving into energetics at a Barbara Brennan offshoot led by the late Laura Fine called Lionheart Institute, adding Transpersonal Energy Therapist or Body/Mind/Energy Therapist to my bag of tricks. In 2008, I traveled to Peru to work with the Quero Tribe in shamanic medicine, walking 80 miles across the Andes through glacial lagoons, earthquakes, snow, and rain. I completed my level 1 along with a few level 2 KRI Kundalini Yoga & Meditation Teacher Trainings with Priya, Peter, Krishna Kaur and Amrit Singh at Seventh Chakra in 2015-2019. Holographic Sound Healing with Paul Hubbert and Reiki attunement with Kelsey Patel came to Go Inward 2018-2020. Feeling divinely inspired to return to my energy healing after having my baby at 47 years old, I traveled to Australia to train with Dr. Sarah Jane in the potent mixed modality of Spinal Energetics in 2023.
In addition to my healing work, I am a mother to two 20-year-old boys, Mick and Aidan, and a spicy 3-year-old girl named Rumi. I am married to David Nidess, who is also a Kundalini Yoga and meditation teacher and often accompanies me in my sound healing sessions.
I have a background in real estate, having been a successful businesswoman in that field for 25 years. My own disciplined practice has given me a wider window of tolerance for life’s interactions and challenges, and I am inspired to help others tap into their own infinite selves to become better humans, teachers, professionals, parents, and community leaders.
My work is designed to open the heart, strengthen the nervous system, and let the infinite driver be the master over the mind. I believe that each individual is a Master of their own Energy and encourage others to take ownership of how their own “naam” or signature vibration affects their well-being and the lives of everyone they touch.
All of the healing modalities and transformative practices I offer aid in shifting your perception and anchoring your awareness in the miracle of the PRESENT moment. They foster emotional regulation, nervous system balance, and enhanced connection to your inner self and divine wisdom. By nurturing these aspects of yourself, you can tap into your innate ability to heal and cultivate a deeper sense of the PRESENCE of love within you and all around you.

Putting training and knowledge aside, what else do you think really matters in terms of succeeding in your field?

To truly be successful in the field of being a creative/healer I believe on must be a sand painter. To truly create and give 150% to each client each workshop each piece and then let it go. I am not a magician, God, universe, source energy is the magic and I am just a really great radio station! I’m really good at holding the frequency and tapping into the love that is within us and around us at all times. We just forget. You have to remember who you really are at the core. I remind people of their truth and the wisdom of their own body does the healing.

I invite you to step into your infinite truth and experience your own human potential. Join me at the Muse Sanctuary in Long Beach, CA to explore the transformative power of these healing practices, and witness how resilience and destiny can create miracles in your own life.
