About Jenn
Jenn Savage, founder of A Heart Centered Life, is a Master Sufi Teacher and Healer. She is passionate about helping women heal, and open their hearts more deeply to the Realities of the Divine. She is soulful and wise, and carries and aura of peace that is transmitted to her students and clients. Jenn holds healing circles where women can gather, grow, and heal spiritually. She is most excited about her work that helps women identify and move away from negative voices and stories of the past, so they are more able to access the Truth that lies at the center of their hearts.
She began her own personal healing journey at 17, when she was struggling to overcome depression, an eating disorder, and the effect addiction was having on her life. At 19, she packed her little red car and headed south, to California, to start a new life. Shortly after arriving in the Bay Area, she read The Tao of Pooh, and The Peaceful Warrior, which resonated deeply with her, and helped her to know at a very deep level that there was more to her than a physical body, and the symptoms that plagued her.
In 1996, she attending East West College of Healing Arts, in Portland, OR, she studies massage and continued her healing. It was during this time that she awoke more deeply to her purpose as she learned about Body Mind Medicine, and the power of Holistic Healing. Her quest continued over the next 3 years as she traveled the US and studied with Spiritual teachers from all over the world. In 1999, she met Sidi al Jamal, the Guide of the Shadhuli Sufi tradition, from the Mount of Olives in the holy city of Jerusalem, and she knew then her searching was over – She had found her spiritual home and the path she would follow. Sidi carried the deep love and containment she had been searching for, and it has been through these teachings that she has been able to heal, and completely transform her broken heart.
Jenn is a gifted and insightful healer and is thankful for the opportunity to offer these sacred and ancient teachings to others who are ready to take the next step in their healing. When she isn’t helping others, Jenn can be found roaming around local farmer’s markets, or chasing her 18 month old son around the neighborhood.
