Rachel Jesien

Celtic Priestess and Yoga Therapist specializing in Alignment, Backcare and Scoliosis serving folks in the Hudson Valley and online.

Rachel Jesien is a Seeress, Celtic Shamanic Priestess, Ordained Minister and Yogini dedicated to the healing of the Earth and all of Her inhabitants. Her spiritual transformation began with a 45 degree scoliotic curvature of her spine, which left her with a broken dance career and paralyzed with pain. Her suffering became a catalyst for transformation as she began studying the physical body in depth, and became an expert in the world of Yoga for Backcare & Scoliosis. As her physical body became more aligned, her psychic abilities opened up exponentially; a gift that had been long suppressed since childhood. She began studying Shamanism with Yukiko Amaya, long time apprentice of Don Miguel Ruiz, and was called in vision to visit Sacred sites across South America, Australia and Europe. In 2017, Rachel began her Priestess of Goddess training in the Glastonbury Goddess spiralage. Rachel has since been guided to steward a piece of land in the Hudson River Valley, where she leads retreats, women's circles, and healing seminars each year. Her vision for reconnecting groups of women to the cycles of the moon and heartbeat of the Earth is of utmost importance. She now guides a global community in aligning body, mind and soul through spiritual mentoring and leading Goddess Centered healing ceremonies in the Avalonian tradition.

💫 A New Chapter💫 In many spiritual traditions, the soul undergoes an evolution in seven year cycles. As I enter this next season of my life with my two babies, embodied in my motherhood journey, I realize that this chapter is deeply tethered to the physical realm.

I crave having my feet in the soil, and spend most of my days with one babe on my breast and chasing after the other. I’m so fully present with these little beings that there is room for little else. And isn’t that beautiful, and challenging, and wonderful and wild. It has made the dreaming of new offerings that much more sweet. What would I REALLY love to teach? It’s gotta bring my heart JOY if it means I’m leaving my family bubble, even for an hour or two 💕

Thanks to for helping me shed the last seven year cycle as I make room for all the magic this new path contains.

I’ve got some new in-person Backcare classes on the horizon this summer. Waitlist is open for private clients (online and in person) which I’ll begin booking in June/July. Email me if you want more info on either 💌Can’t wait to see you all and plant some new seeds in the community 🌱

Are you feeling more inspired to 🌷CREATE🌷 now that it’s ♉️ ?

Two weeks with our sweet boy ARDEN KAYDE 🦅 🏔️
You came into this world when the sun first entered Pisces Season, and it has been a dream ever since.
Arden, your presence has been such a comfort to me even before you came earthside. His name came to us in a vision of an eagle flying through the valley. I cannot wait to see how the powerful dreams you’ve already shared come to fruition in this realm. What a gift you are to our family.

Sister is absolutely smitten and keeps bringing him gifts (like earplugs, a portable fan, lots of crackers 🤣) I know people say your heart doubles in size when the second babe comes along, but I never expected that this amount of love could possibly exist.

A huge heartfelt thanks to our village who have sent over meals, loving words of support and cozy gifts to help us transition into a family of four (plus Clyde of course 🐕 ❤️) and to our birth team who helped create another empowered labor experience 💪

And to all the pregnant mamas expecting their second…I can confirm that pregnant with a toddler exhaustion is WAY WORSE than newborn with a toddler sleep deprivation😴 so hang in there!

Bees have long been seen as messengers between the natural and spiritual worlds, embodying community, harmony, and transformation. In many cultures, they’re keepers of wisdom, and it’s customary to share important family news with them, honoring their role in our lives. 🐝

I feel deeply connected to their energy as I reflect on their history and the lessons they offer about balance and interconnectedness. Have you ever shared a moment with these sacred creatures? Let’s honor their magic together. 🌿✨

Honoring International Artist Day with a piece dedicated to Cerridwen the Welsh goddess of transformation, by the incredible Wendy Andrews brought back from Glastonbury, England. 🌿✨ Cerridwen’s cauldron symbolizes the magic of transformation, wisdom, and the cycles of life. In Celtic legend, her cauldron is a vessel of deep inspiration and insight—those who drink from it are granted poetic inspiration and profound knowledge.

As we approach Samhain, you can connect with Cerridwen by lighting a candle, setting intentions, and offering something meaningful as you meditate on what you wish to release and invite into your life. Her energy is a powerful guide through times of change and renewal. For a full ritual to honor Cerridwen this Samhain, see https://bit.ly/samhainhome.

May her magic inspire transformation and insight on your journey.

Feeling and empowered by the energy of the earth and the spiritual world as approaches… less than a week away! 🍂✨

This time of year, when the veil between the worlds is at its thinnest, is such a powerful opportunity to connect with our ancestors and otherworldly guides. I’m so honored to offer a special downloadable Samhain ritual where I’ll guide you in creating an ancestral altar and calling in the wisdom of those who walk with you from beyond. 🕯️

Samhain, the Celtic New Year, is a time to honor the cycles of life, death, and rebirth. Deeply rooted in Welsh and Celtic Pagan traditions, it marks the end of the harvest and the beginning of winter—a moment when we can glean insights from the other side and tap into the energies of the earth and spirit world.

This ritual will give you everything you need to honor Samhain from the comfort of your home, including a PDF and video/audio file. For $44, you’ll receive:
⫸ A ritual to energetically connect with the season.
⫸ A guide to building your own ancestral altar.
⫸ Tools for deepening your connection with otherworldly guides for guidance and support in the new year.

This ritual can be done any time you’re craving a fresh start or feeling the need to reconnect with your inner wisdom. Join me in ceremony and let’s walk this path together!
