Her work cultivates self-love and creates new neural pathways through movement and gratitude.Reviving lost Mesopotamian traditions, Sharokin offers spiritually curious clients tools to navigate today’s fast-paced, anxiety-driven world. She is currently documenting her mother’s legacy of resilience and creativity through a biography and memoir.
