Welcome to SLG

The online healing program that will make you say,

"It saved my life,
my future, and my sanity."

kvme akukonpayaymvn

A life without anxiety, numbness, stress, trauma, and pain... is that even possible? Yes!

"It's been a year now since I signed up and it has transformed everything! I feel so light and happy in my body, but also a feeling of trust that my body can get through anything. I just wanted to say thank you! This has really changed my future and life in so many ways and I feel that everything is possible. "

if this sounds familiar...

... know that you're not alone.

But before you waste any more time and energy learning how to cope and manage, aka learning how to live with it, which again, you're not alone––

Hear me out...

"I can’t get rid of the heaviness in my chest"

"I’ve always wondered why I am so sad and can't seem to enjoy life like other people"


"I am irritable and can't focus on anything"


"The moment I wake up I feel anxious and overwhelmed."

"The tightness in my jaw and shoulders turns into pain."

"I get horrible migraines"

"I've been having panic attacks daily and struggle to keep going."

I spent almost all of my 20s, about eight years, living with so much anxiety and overwhelm that I could barely get out of bed.

After being sexually abused two weeks after my twentieth birthday, I was diagnosed with chronic PTSD and severe depression. It was so bad that I couldn't even remember if I'd showered some days.

Or I would end up somewhere and have no memory of driving there.

The worst part was that every day I felt like I wasn't actually living my life. It was like it was just passing me by without me having any control of where it was going. And because I was so numb at this time, I ended up missing all the warning signs, including my own intuition, when I met and married my ex-husband.

Which ended up being an experience I almost didn't survive.

So there I was, numbingly tired after 8 years of trying to cope with my trauma using therapy, medications, meditation, yoga, self-help books, affirmations –– you name it.

Exhausted from doing everything not to drown, living in domestic violence, seeing no way out, no hope for anything to change, or even the possibility of having a future-

When something woke me up...

Where I was

The whole time, since my doctors told me it was chronic, I'd been telling myself, "It doesn't make sense."

From my family (especially my grandmother), our people, and knowledge–– I knew that we were not made to live like this.

We're not made to live in survival, in any way.

Stress, trauma, and all the ways it affects us and changes us.

But I had not been listening.

My whole childhood I'd been proud to be Indigenous. I'd been proud of all the work my family had done (and still does) to protect our knowledge since the reservation system started in 1880, and even long before that. 

How it changed

But as I became older, and as the first generation in my family to be born into Western society, it became harder to listen to our ways.

I started to think that this dominant culture must be right, about everything, because it was all I heard and saw around me.

But then I looked at my own life. And the millions of people who live with anxiety, depression, stress, and trauma around the world today.

And I realized– that was the problem.

We've all just been listening to this one perspective. A perspective that keeps telling us that we can only learn how to live with it, or "cope"–– but not heal from it.

Whether you decide to join SLG or not (but of course, I hope you do) know this:

You don't have to spend the rest of your life living like this.

Nature made it possible for your body to heal.

"I'd a conversation with my best friend,  and somehow we came across some unpleasant situations that I lived through as a child. That's when I started to realize that it doesn't trigger me anymore.

No pain, no fear, no shame, no tears. Only simple memories but it doesn't hurt anymore... I feel very grateful!!!"

AS SEEN IN

Featured by CRISIS TEXT LINE as one of four Indigenous Mental Health Leaders to follow and learn from.

My name is Mandy Martini- Kvyen (Moon) Chihuailaf (Mist Spreading Over a Lake), and I'm of the Mapuche Nation–– People of the Land.

After returning to my people's kuyfi kimün–– Indigenous knowledge that's been passed down for generations––  I was finally able to let my body heal from the trauma I'd been through, as nature intended.

The process, or cycle, to heal from trauma is very similar to when you heal from a wound or get a cold.

It's a physical experience that needs to happen from inside your body.

Not talked about inside a building, following some theory an man in a white beard had once that everyone started blindly agreeing with. Not by repeating affirmations, over and over again.

And not by numbing ourselves from the pain.

Healing becomes hard (if not impossible) because everything you're taught in this culture is about theory or controlling your responses (and thoughts).

But healing starts when our natural responses finally get the opportunity to do their job without being interfered with, and even stopped.

This difference, between Western and Indigenous approaches to healing, is something this doctor noticed when going through SLG 👇

Mari mari (hi!)

The knowledge I share inside SLG is how I went from not even being able to get out of my bed because of so much overwhelm and anxiety, to creating an online healing program that has now helped people in over 35 countries heal from trauma– for good.

And it has allowed me to help and raise funds for my people and community in various ways, e.g.:

  • For domestic violence shelters on reservations
  • Sponsoring Native women and children escaping abuse and human trafficking
  • Helping my own family members who were persecuted and forced into exile
  • Creating Native Nations Garden–– a project to help stop food insecurity among Native people around NYC.


But enough about me. The big question is...

How would your life change if you didn't have stress and trauma stealing all the focus, and draining all the energy meant for you to live your life?

"I thought the only solution was therapy, which I'd been doing weekly for two years before starting SLG to deal with my childhood trauma, including sexual abuse, at an early age.

It's been one year since I started SLG, and I've never felt more free and empowered to LIVE LIFE, not merely survive. At first, I could go farther without therapy sessions, and now I've completely stopped and can use that time and money on other things. 

I don't feel triggered by what I went through anymore, and I can understand my body and let it heal naturally. Now, I have the energy and mental space to raise my boys, take care of my relationships, make new true friends, which I always struggled with, and grow my business to levels I never thought I could.

All because I'm not living in survival anymore. 

"Now, I have the energy and mental space to raise my boys, take care of my relationships, make new true friends, which I always struggled with, and grow my business to levels I never thought I could."

SLG SCHOOL

INTRODUCING

the Science of Letting Go

SLG is a fully immersive online program that helps you - not to cope with stress and trauma - but to let it all go and actually heal.

Yes, really.

While I can't guarantee anything, and of course it will depend on you actually showing up and doing what I'm guiding you through. But in the over 6 years of teaching to people all around the world–– it has never failed.

Mornings without dread and anxiety can become an every day reality instead of a once-in-a-while.

Step-by-step, and in your own pace, I'll walk you through how to release all the stress and trauma you're living with right now.



- Nictíre

"... real relief and a clear path forward. Years of talk therapy left me more traumatized. I did not want to have to relive my trauma in order to heal. No need to relive or even talk about your experiences. You have all the tools you need to heal inside your body - let Mandy show you how!"

"After 40 years of suffering from the effects of extreme abuse and multiple traumas, I have finally found REAL healing..."

Allowing you to break the cycle of trauma for yourself...

... and future generations.

Got 4 weeks to do something that'll change the rest of your life?

Some of the results we consistently see inside SLG (vary from person to person):

  • anxiety and overwhelm gone
  • triggers gone
  • more energy
  • better focus
  • improved relationships with loved ones
  • better sleep
  • better health
  • confidence
  • physical pains disappearing
  • no more PMS or other extreme period pains
  • improved skin
  • no longer needing alcohol to numb
  • no longer needing all the other ways used to cope (a lot of cancelled appointments with service providers)
  • lots of excitement

    and the list goes on (and on).

"I almost didn’t go through with signing up. Nearly convincing myself to put the money toward other debt- what a mistake that would've been. There's no debt like generations and a lifetime of stress/trauma.

Before, I'd little capacity to deal with anything and was easily overwhelmed.

Then I started working through SLG. 

Now I have more clarity, heaviness continues to lift, triggers have lost their traction, my periods are no longer thrusting me into fight/flight/freeze. Maybe it all sounds too good to be true but it’s not."

"I wake up with a genuine feeling of excitement instead of anxiety, doubt, and dread."

Who SLG is not for...

  • You think that just by signing up your life will be fixed. No matter how good our knowledge is, nothing can change unless you show up and take responsibility for doing the work.

  • You're thinking, "I'm going to sign up so I can take it to make money/promote my products/services, etc"–– no. Please walk away. SLG is here to support those who need help, but also our people and the work we're doing to rebuild families and communities. And we've already had, and still going through, enough exploitation as it is.

"I hope people see the value in what you're offering... I've been working through module 1 and I would pay again and again to feel the amount of relief I felt from your program. And this is just the beginning."

"I'd spent 27 years trying to cope and bought it with doubt after seeing what the "wellness" community was offering.

But what Mandy teaches is what I'd been waiting for all these years. SLG is rooted in Indigenous wisdom and has been an invaluable tool for my healing, and I've told many friends about it because it works!

Everything Mandy shares is from the heart. I am so lucky to have been connected to you Ñaña, you are one of a kind and I'm so grateful that you decided to share such sacred wisdom with us."

"When I found SLG I was skeptical to be honest."

Watch, listen, read- however you prefer to learn.

Most people inside SLG, like most in this world, work very hard to survive in this culture. Some are even single parents with no family around or community support.

That's why SLG is made to be easy to digest, and learn, in your own time and pace.

Plus, the "work" you do in SLG will help you not get overwhelmed. And give you more energy for the things that matters.

Extra support through Talking Circles

Our Elders and family members used to (and still do) arrange talking circles in our ruka (huts) to allow members of the community to come together and not only support each other, but help reinforce our knowledge and practices.

These live talking circles through Zoom are our "modern" version of it.

When you sign up there'll be 4 live Talking Circles over Zoom, spread out over a month so that you have support as you go through the program. If you miss any, don't worry, they're recorded. Plus, you also get to join all the future talking circles.

In a talking circle, you can share how you're doing (if you want, that is), ask questions, get support, and get to know a wonderful community from all around the world.

Before, I would speak up for others, but not when it came to myself. Now I'm noticing myself taking up more space, in a genuine way, and a place of being grounded. When I'm alone with myself or go for a walk, I feel like I am with a good friend instead of needing a phone or craving the connection with something artificial. It's going really well for me at work and with my relationship. My family has this big stressor, but I'm still able to enjoy the good things, whereas before, stress would have been in everything, and I wouldn't have been able to focus. By accident, I quit drinking. I am amazed. I am so much more of who I am. So thank you! I'm so happy I found you and SLG.

"I feel so much more like myself, and I'm getting back into things I like."

I used to suffer from restless leg syndrome.

This was a big pain point as I would lay in bed for hours trying to get comfortable, rubbing my leg, or even kicking the back of my calf trying to make the feeling go away or eventually take IBU just so I could sleep.  

Mandy, I am forever grateful for you and all that you share. I truly have learned so much from you. 

"SLG has changed me for the better and the future is looking bright."

A peek inside SLG

MODULE ONE

If your body is fighting to survive then it's affecting your health, your immune system, your energy, and your ability to focus. That's why we start to physically release the survival responses so that your body can start the healing process.

(This is why members notice results so fast. Hip pain disappeared overnight, "best sleep of my life," feeling lighter, more energy, etc.)

Think about all the things that bother you in your life. That makes you nauseous, worried, and overwhelmed. From news, social media, work, maybe even your loved ones-- stress is everywhere. This means your body will respond with the survival instinct to help you go through it.

It's so important to know what triggers you. Not because you can avoid it completely (unless you become a hermit), but so that you can prevent stress on your body as much as possible. In this module, I'll show you how you can spend less time reacting and more time enjoying your life.

Imagine waking up feeling at peace and connected with who you are. This is where your environment: mind, body, spirit, and land come into a full circle and you see how connected they are to each other. And how important it is for you to pay attention. It's like an ecosystem, you have to focus on the whole, not just on one part of you.

You'll learn how to build connections and boundaries (might seem like they contradict but they actually don't) to help you even when this society or who knows, a random stranger, throws you a curveball.

You were meant to do so much more than living your life just trying to survive each day.

After seeing the life-changing (not exaggerating) results from SLG members, this bonus module was born. It's here to help you get ready for a new chapter in your life, however that might look like. All I know is that it's bright.

what more members are saying

When you're too tired to fight and too tired to run- numbness can sometimes become a last attempt to protect yourself against pain.

But it doesn't have to stay that way.

I’m falling in love with this course and it’s literally changing my life. I’m currently super sick and unable to do a lot of things so this course is what I can look forward to everyday.

Like phenomenal.

"... it's literally changing my life."

SLG appeared at exactly the right time for me. I was struggling with issues relating to divorce and an extremely unhappy marriage. During the course, I also uncovered old traumas that I had forgotten/suppressed and was able to work on as well.

I am incredibly grateful for the knowledge I've acquired and to Mandy for creating this course and for her support. It has been a life changing experience, I would recommend it to anyone. 

Huge thanks and so much love xo

 "a life changing experience"

I've come to see a lot of what I have not let go of and in the process, through your beautiful teaching of doing so each and everyday, each and every moment.
You're an incredible teacher and soul.

Entire course is an absolute get, keep and use! Blessings.

"I want to let you know your course is INCREDIBLE!!"

-MELISSA ZEPEDA

I was a zombie walking through my everyday routine and missing out on what matters. Now I'm on a roll living my best life BECAUSE OF YOU! I've been much more aware and living in the moment. I promise you, the birds chirping every morning have never sounded more beautiful. Do you realize how grateful I am for you?
 It's because of you and your willingness to share with others your incredible knowledge.

"You really have no clue what you started IN ME!"

Even when you feel like you've tried it all and it feels hopeless, if given a chance, your body can still catch up and surprise you.

Before, I didn't know that I was living with stress. All these physical symptoms were happening and I would just live with it. And then I would end up in the hospital hooked up to a machine because I felt like I was having a heart attack. I was in and out of hospitals for years because I couldn't keep food down. I was vomiting up everything.
 
Turns out it was stress and anxiety and it took 31 years for me to be able to help myself.

The amount of money that I've spent on therapy sessions that sometimes made it worse. And working with my family doctor who tested me but couldn't figure out what it was. This program, in the one year that I've been practicing the tools that you've given me, the change that it's made in my life, how much of the darkness it's lifted off my shoulders-- it's priceless. I just wish I had it sooner.

"I just wish I'd it sooner."

SLG 30-Day Peace of Mind Guarantee

We both know what's out there and how confusing and overwhelming it can be when you don't know if something will work or not.

That's why SLG comes with a 30-Day Peace of Mind Guarantee.

The catch? You have to give SLG a chance.

That means you show up and do the classes and everything I guide you through. If within 30 days you feel like it did nothing for you: send me an email with proof that you did follow through, along with an explaination of why it didn't work for you, and you'll get your refund.

It's a big difference going through your life actually living it, versus just trying to survive it.

Isabel's Children

Isabel’s Children is a money fund that goes directly to support survivors of violence and food insecurity in Indigenous communities.

In the memory and honor of Mandy’s chuchu (grandmother) Isabel- an Indigenous woman who despite a life filled with abuse, trauma, starvation and injustice, still did everything she could to help anyone who needed her. With her knowledge of healing, plant medicines, and her cooking, or simply opening her doors for someone who needed a place to stay, whatever little she had, she gave.

Isabel's Children is funded by every enrollment into SLG School.
