Rena Anakwe, SENSORHEUM
Rena Anakwe is a Nigerian-Canadian-American interdisciplinary artist, poet, and healer that uses sound, visuals, and scent to explore where and how traditional healing practices, spirituality, and performance can connect and fracture. Her deeper inquiry is how reconnecting to nature can help us to understand and mend these fractures; not only for ourselves but in relation to one another. She is the creator and founder of SENSORHEUM, a multi-dimensional, digital portal that offers access to healing experiences, practitioners, and tools, both in-person and virtually. In its first phase, it will feature: sound healing for visual and auditory enjoyment, herbal remedies for plant-based support, and mutual aid to expand accessibility to offerings for people at lower income levels.
SENSORHEUM is a complement and an alternative to westernized systems where only symptoms are treated versus Non-Western approaches that holistically consider the mind, body, and spirit, and is available to all.
