Selia Jimenez is the Owner and Operator of Soothing Canna Massage and Wellness, located in the tranquil and picturesque setting of Big Bear Lake, California. With over 20 years of experience as a California State Certified Massage Therapist and a proud member of the Associated Bodywork & Massage Professionals, Selia has dedicated her career to nurturing the physical and spiritual well-being of her clients. Her extensive background includes working at renowned establishments such as Glen Ivy Hot Springs, The Viceroy Palm Springs, and The Parker Palm Springs.
Selia's journey has not been without its challenges. For many years, she struggled with addiction, living a life that had become unmanageable. Faced with the reality that she needed to change or risk losing her life, Selia embarked on a path of transformation. While detoxing from opioids, she discovered the power of cannabis, learning to microdose this ancient plant medicine, which ultimately changed her life for the better. Through education and exploration, she gained a deep understanding of different cannabis strains and consumption methods, recognizing its potential as an entheogen to connect with spirit.
In early 2017, Selia faced another significant challenge after a car accident left her with debilitating pain and seizures caused by the prescribed pain medications. Having experienced the severe side effects of these medications firsthand, she sought alternatives and was introduced to the benefits of CBD and THC topicals. The almost immediate relief she felt inspired her to create her own products, allowing her to remain intimately connected to the plant medicine as a native healer.
Today, Selia is devoted to helping others find natural pain relief and healing methods in the beautiful setting of Big Bear Lake. Her passion for community wellness led her to take over the Wellness Connected Fair, where she discovered her love for bringing people together in a celebratory, festival-like atmosphere. This passion culminated in the rebranding and creation of the Wellness Connected Festival, which she hosts and organizes. Through this festival, Selia aims to create a space for individuals to share their gifts, learn different healing modalities, and connect with the Mind-Body-Spirit connection.
Selia Jimenez’s journey is a powerful testament to resilience, healing, and community. With her unwavering dedication to holistic wellness, she continues to inspire those around her, demonstrating the profound impact that personal transformation can have on the lives of others.
Join Selia on Saturday for a Sound Bath Immersion as she takes you on a journey of sound and vibrational healing putting you into a meditative state of consciousness between sleep and awake.
