Blake Schiller

Intuitive Life Coach, NDE, CASAC, & Founder of YANA.SUPPORT

Blake Schiller, founder of YANA, is a Buddhist practitioner, a spiritual life coach, and an addiction behavioral therapist. For over 25 years, he’s dedicated himself to building community and helping others find new skills to overcome challenges and to make decisions that lead to positive feelings and more fulfilling relationships.

For over three decades, I have devoted myself to helping others find peace when in the grips of emotional pain. When we suffer like this, we have the choice to either face it or run away. Most of us turn to substances or behavioral patterns such as workaholism, shopping, sex/porn addiction, love addiction, overeating, and obsessive-compulsive behaviors. To liberate ourselves from suffering, we must open our hearts and treat our afflictions with the energy of love and compassion. YANA.SUPPORT is the vehicle for healing and emotional transformation.

We are here to guide you and provide the life-changing teachings and resources you need to live a meaningful life. Click here to learn about my services.

"I teach others that there's a way out of suffering."
- Blake Schiller
Description:

As a group leader, I create a safe and supportive space for group members to connect with each other and work on improving their physical, emotional, and mental health. Group participants will learn how to regulate the autonomic nervous system and bring about a sense of calm and relaxation. Participants will be introduced to deep listening, loving speech, meditation, guided imagery, and writing exercises to cultivate greater self-awareness.

These meetings are support groups and not therapy sessions. Anyone struggling with mental health issues is encouraged to see a professional psychotherapist.

When Blake entered my life, I was at my lowest point. His energy, politeness, and willingness to truly listen were of immeasurable assistance to me. I cannot thank him adequately.

Wayne T., TX

When I began working with Blake, I had no idea how numb and afraid I was of basically every emotion. Throughout our work together Blake has taught me to feel, rather than fear my emotions. Today, I can cope with life's inevitable negative emotions and also experience joy, peace, self-compassion and love.

Background:

My spiritual journey began in the fall of 1987, after I suffered a heart attack and a near-death experience as a result of my substance abuse. This experience didn't just open me up to my core; it led me on the path to spiritual and emotional liberation for over thirty-five years. Today, I wouldn't be here without the help of my brothers and sisters in the 12-Step community.
