Hello, my name is Abigail Nares, co-founder of Aligned Specialty Coffee. On this page you can read a short bio to learn more about me!
One of my many purposes in this life is to unite, elevate, and expand others through teaching Energy Healing Techniques.
This has been my main dedication, passion, and privilege for the past 10 years. This journey of energy awareness, and eventually directing energy in order to support the healing of myself and others, has been one of the most gratifying journeys.
The journey that started it all however, was a solo trip I took to South America after I graduated from university (SUNY New Paltz), where I earned a Bachelors degrees in both Business Management and Spanish Language.
My spirit, heart, and other universal energies nudged me so much in the direction of this trip, that my mind eventually became aligned with the idea that there was something greater waiting for me along the way.
I spent almost 2 years traveling between Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador. I was volunteering on projects in every country I visited. I supported and worked towards the many diverse missions of other people and groups ranging from a National Park in Patagonia, a yoga + meditation studio, a tropical fish farm on the Caribbean coast, an organic mushroom in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, a coffee farm in a cloud forest of Southern Ecuador, A sacred plant medicine retreat center, and planting a farm out on the Galápagos Islands… the list can go on and on. It was a really epic and adventurous time of my life.
Along this journey I became aware of and connected with the very present energies that guided me everywhere I went as I learned to soften, quiet myself, tune in, tap into, and turn on with these vibrant healing energies that align us with a path that surpasses even the limits of our wildest imaginations.
During this trip is where I also met my husband and partner in life and business, Jonathan. It is very shocking to many people when they learn that we met at his specialty coffee shop in the Galápagos Islands. For us, it was as easy as aligning with our passions, joys, growth, hearts… and specialty coffee 😉
After we met, I continued on my journey, and he on his. Mine continued to lead me around the world, likewise for him. We always maintained contact and grew a beautiful, encouraging, and supportive friendship over the years.
I was teaching English in a private school in Northern Thailand when Covid-19 broke out. I came back to the USA, my home country and decided to channel my energy into an online service of teaching others to connect with, and heal themselves through discovering energy healing techniques.
My business Wellness with Abi, LLC continues to grow as I teach spiritual seekers to become powerful Energy Healers. It’s a very gratifying dedication and I am overwhelmed with JOY to do work that I LOVE every day.
These are my current qualifications:
- Master Reiki Energy Practitioner: Usui System of Natural Healing
- Meditation Practitioner: Complementary Therapists Accredited Association
- Pranayama Breath-work: Transformational Yoga School & Healing Arts
- Certified Personal Trainer: American Council on Exercise
- Emotional Freedom Technique Practitioner: Complementary Therapists Accredited Association
- Fitness Nutrition Specialist: American Council on Exercise
When the travel bans started to lift, I bought a flight to Ecuador, to reunite with Jonathan after 3 years of long distance friendship and love. From there, we have begun to create and embody an inspiring life we love based around: travel, specialty coffee, and energy healing.
We are certain that you will experience the ENERGY (literally, figuratively, and energetically) of love and passion behind every specialty cup and course offered by Aligned Coffee.
