Ada Garza Martinez
Ada Garza is a Somatic Practitioner, Alchemical Breathwork Facilitator, and founder of Love. Alchemy. Life. — a healing practice built on one core belief: that every person already carries the capacity to become their own healer and their own guide.
Her work sits at the intersection of nervous system regulation, emotional alchemy, and embodied self-leadership. Ada doesn’t guide people toward her answers — she teaches them how to read their own body’s signals, release stored energy from the nervous system, and access the clarity needed to make decisions that are genuinely their own.
Her training includes HeartMath certification, Alchemical Breathwork facilitation, Nervous System Regulation Practitioner training through the Institute of Applied Somatics, and five years of advanced energy healing through the Spiritual Arts Institute.
She works with individuals navigating major life and identity transitions — helping them move from emotional overwhelm into clarity, inner power, and self-directed action.
Unless you regulate your nervous system, you cannot access your inner power. That is her lane.
Professional Background & Training
Ada Garza is the founder of Love. Alchemy. Life. and a Somatic Practitioner specializing in nervous system regulation, emotional alchemy, and embodied self-leadership. Her work is rooted in a single conviction: that every person already carries the capacity to become their own healer and their own guide — they simply need the tools to access it.
Ada’s approach is not about hand-holding or providing answers. It is about teaching people how to read their own body’s signals, release stored energy from the nervous system, and think with enough clarity to make decisions that are genuinely their own.
Her training includes HeartMath certification, Alchemical Breathwork facilitation, five years of advanced energy healing through the Spiritual Arts Institute, and Nervous System Regulation Practitioner training through the Institute of Applied Somatics and MyVinyasa Yoga. She is also a Toastmasters-trained speaker and published contributor to Brainz Magazine.
She works with individuals navigating major life and identity transitions — helping them move from emotional overwhelm and nervous system dysregulation into clarity, inner power, and self-directed action.
What I'm Known For
Philosophy
I believe the body is not a problem to be solved — it is an intelligence to be understood.
Most people come to healing work because something in their life isn’t working. A transition they can’t navigate. An emotion they can’t move through. A decision they can’t make clearly. What they don’t realize is that the answer to all of those things already lives inside them — stored in the nervous system, held in the fascia, waiting in the breath.
My work is not about giving people a roadmap. It is about teaching them to read their own terrain.
When the nervous system is dysregulated, the mind cannot think clearly, the emotions cannot move freely, and the body cannot communicate what it knows. Everything feels stuck because energetically, it is. The moment we create regulation — through breath, through somatic awareness, through conscious embodied practice — something shifts. Clarity returns. Choices become visible. People stop looking outward for guidance and start trusting what they already sense to be true.
This is what I mean by Emotional Alchemy. Not the transformation of emotion into something prettier — but the full, honest movement through it, so that what was once stuck becomes fuel, and what was once fear becomes the very ground of courage.
I am not here to lead you. I am here to teach you how to lead yourself.
