About Semi-Woo

Heather Adams is a breath meditation teacher and writer based in the Pacific Northwest. She is currently working to reconnect people with ancestral ways to heal the body, mind and soul. When she’s not facilitating a ceremony, you can find her traveling to a new exciting place (or old favorite), fussing over her houseplants or dance-walking around the neighborhood.

Semi Woo seeks to offer warm, inclusive and compassionate spaces for BIPOC and their allies to heal and discover their true nature. The focus is on mindfulness, self compassion, ancestral healing and the holistic use of spiritual and plant medicine to heal the body, mind and soul.

My Meditation Philosophy

I believe meditation has the power to make our existence richer and lighter. I don't believe meditation has to feel foreign and rigid. I think it should fit seamlessly into our lives no matter our ethnicity, religion or background. I teach guided meditation classes and workshops with a casual vibe that will make a beginner feel welcome to learn and seasoned practitioners feel inspired to grow. Every Semi-Woo class is designed to bring real personal awareness to the subject we're meditating on and provide tips and tools to infuse what we've learned into our everyday life. I'm excited to share what I've learned in a context that makes sense for the modern world we live in. So let’s meditate, hang out and learn TOGETHER!!
