Who is Alissa Sunshine
The path that brought me here
I'm a mom, a grandma, and a small business owner. For more than 25 years I've been deeply committed to my own healing, and to understanding what actually helps people change.
My healing journey began when I was nineteen. In truth, it started long before that. For most of my life until then, and for years after, I lived in survival mode.
I grew up with abuse. At seventeen I left home for a marriage that turned violent. And while I was still trying to find my footing, I lost my father to violence. For years I asked myself: why me?
I didn't have an answer for a long time. What I had instead was a choice: to keep surviving, or to actually start healing. I chose healing. And then I chose it again. And again. For the next 25 years.
That journey took me through therapy, energy healing, breathwork, advanced consciousness work, and some of the most profound experiences of my life. Slowly, something shifted. The weight I had been carrying began to move. And underneath all of it, I found something I hadn't expected: wholeness, clarity, and a deep and unshakeable sense of peace.
Not because my past changed. Because my relationship to it did.
The turn
I didn't set out to become a facilitator. I set out to heal.
I didn't set out to become a breathwork facilitator. I set out to heal. But somewhere along the way I realized that everything I had been through had given me something I could not have learned any other way.
I know what it feels like to carry something too heavy to put down. I know what it feels like to have tried everything and still feel stuck. I know what it feels like to sit in a room full of people and feel completely alone inside your own body.
And I know what it feels like when something finally shifts. That is what I create space for in every Sacred Liberation Breathwork Journey: a held, loving space where your body gets to do what it has always known how to do. Release, reset, and remember that you are okay.
Training and background
Over 25 years of healing work, and more than a decade of formal training
I've studied alongside Dr. Joe Dispenza, Tony Robbins, Gregg Braden, Dr. Bruce Lipton, and Mike Dooley, and I bring the full depth of that training into every space I hold.
I'm also the founder of Sunshine Community Fitness Center, nine gyms across small-town Wisconsin, because helping people feel better in their bodies has always been at the center of everything I do.

Who this is for
You are not beyond healing.
You are not broken. You are not too far gone. You are not beyond healing. I know, because I used to believe all of those things about myself, and I found my way through anyway. Not because I was stronger than anyone else. Just because at some point I got tired of carrying it and said yes to something different.
Here's what I see happen over and over in that room. Someone walks in quiet and guarded, not sure why they came. Two hours later they're lying there with tears running down their face and a look of absolute relief, like something they forgot was possible just came back online.
Maybe you landed here because something in you is hurting. Maybe you're just curious. Whatever it is, I'm glad you found your way here, and I would love to be in that room with you.
With so much love, Alissa Sunshine
