About Heather Foli, SIHP

Founder of Swanky Hippy Society Urban Health Farm

Hello, I’m Heather Foli, SIHP and I’m thrilled to welcome you to Swanky Hippy Society, where wellness, community, and self-transformation come alive in a serene urban oasis. My journey through the holistic arts has been one of deep exploration and a dedication to mind-body healing, spanning over two decades of experience, education, and practice.

My fascination with the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and natural world sparked a lifelong path in holistic health, beginning in 2003 as a manager of private medical practices. Over the next decade, I witnessed firsthand the gaps in traditional healthcare and felt a growing call to dive into wellness practices that could nurture the whole person. This led me to pursue extensive training in yoga, becoming a 1000-hour certified yoga instructor (E-RYT), and exploring the art of sound healing, completing Levels I & II certification. Both practices, rooted in ancient wisdom, taught me how breath, movement, and stillness can harmonize the mind and body—an approach that continues to shape my work today.

The power of somatic therapy soon deepened my practice. As a biodynamic somatic therapist, I guide individuals in tuning into the body’s innate wisdom and cultivating a safe, grounded relationship with their physical selves. Through somatic movement and gentle practices, and table work I support clients in releasing stored tension, processing trauma, and expanding body awareness. This work is a profound reminder that the body carries the potential for healing, resilience, and restoration, offering a gentle path back to balance and wholeness.

Swanky Hippy Society Urban Health Farm embodies my vision of a vibrant sanctuary where these practices come together, offering a nurturing space to reconnect with nature, heal, and grow. Here, amidst urban greenery and a supportive community, you can step away from the hustle, rediscover inner calm, and explore wellness in its fullest expression.

Whether you join us for a biodynamic somatic therapy session, a yoga class, or a sound healing experience, my goal is to provide a safe, welcoming environment for you to embark on your own unique journey of healing and self-discovery. Here, we honor the power of holistic practices and the beauty of each individual's path.

Thank you for being here, and for choosing to cultivate a life of connection, authenticity, and well-being with us.

With gratitude,
Heather Foli
