We had the good fortune of connecting with Nikki Bell and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Nikki, what do you want your legacy to be?
To be completely transparent significance and legacy are not what I am pursuing here, my work is entirely focused on those I hold space for and the energies I am in service to.

If there is anything I want people to remember about me it is that I offered to them a space to be seen in their wholeness, loved unconditionally and seen in their highest light so that they could see themselves. I would love people to leave our time together feeling, heard, held. energetically, and seen.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I love what I do because LOVE is what I do.

Love is how I see, it allows me to soften my vision and perceive from a wider lens than that which we normally do as we generally live enmeshed in our experiences rather than at a vantage point which we can have a broader view of the bigger picture. As I walk with you I am always the most excited by seeing surrender, heal, and growth occur.

My greatest joy is in spending quality time with individuals helping them to shift the way they see the world, and experience the way the world shifts in response to us altering what we look to see. And to witness the cultivation of natural gifts which reveal themselves as we dive deeper into the cave of our individualized subconscious expressions. Which leads me to my greatest lesson. We do not control the path, we merely control the pace. Karma is written in our stars (literally) what will be, is. We simply dictate the choice of surrender or resistance to the lessons which present, as we wander with wonder, the serpentine path that is our incarnation.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
My free time is filled with time and space to slowly settle into the art of being in the ocean or the mountains. I like a quiet morning in Topenga getting lost in the wilderness and being with the animals and plants, listening for the lessons of the moment. After that I head to the canyons of Malibu for a salt water therapy session, learning from the way of water, how to flow, and coffee at Blue Bottle to sit with hummingbirds and give thanks for the fresh air.

Time and space to disconnect is so essential for me to do the work I do. I navigate big and often heavy energies which I ground and bubble myself from as best I can, but part of my work requires emeshment during the duration of our session and so nature is the appropriate container for me to turn over what clings.

I highly recommend nature based practices of grieving and clearing for all beings, regularly.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My path has been heavily influenced by my direct connection to Spirit, and where they lead me.

Some of my favorite books which have influences me have been …
Letting Go by David Hawkins
Ritual by Malidoma Patrice Some
Kigo by Lorie Eve Dechar
The Wild edge of Sorrow by Francis Weller
