The Effortless Art of ​Living

​When you know where to look (inside yourself) for answers, you discover:
The key to peace of mind.
The happiness that's always been there.
​Inner strength and resilience.
A renewed appreciation for life.
New purpose and direction.
The absence of self doubt, guilt or hesitation.

​​Living only on the surface of life,
we lose the sense of depth and beauty that enriches and fulfills us all.
Living only by someone else's rules,
we lose touch with the Wisdom that is our true nature.
Living only from endless overthinking, 
we're either reliving the past or rehearsing for the future.
You're meant to live from a deeper reality.

What Clients Say About Nina:

Picture
"Nina has an ability to help people break through the clutter of everyday life. She has helped me to feel comfortable with constant change and evolution in my life. Her thought-filled words often come to me at difficult times and have helped me find my inner strength and ultimately a source of peace. Nina has helped me redefine what's important, and learn how to function this world with more grace and more joy. In a sometimes unfair and challenging world, or when feeling overwhelmed, Nina has helped me to find my way. I also know that I have all I need.. and it's right inside of me, just waiting to be tapped. When joy is present in my life, Nina has helped me to recognize it and live life with gratitude and grace. I have never worked with anyone as intuitive, compassionate and caring. I value our times together, am grateful to call her a friend."
​Peggy Conway, Principal, GreenFrogBlue Marketing and Design, Englewood, Florida.

Nina embodies what she teaches. She shares what she herself has experienced and learned.  Nina has the ability to capture and distill clarity and wisdom from core complex emotions and challenging situations  and provide a simple yet profound perspective.  If you resonate with LOVE as a foundation for health, creativity, happiness and beyond you will benefit greatly by spending time with Nina.  As a mindfulness oriented person and spiritual mentor and teacher myself, Nina is one of my most trusted friends and colleagues. I can turn to her when I am in a quandary (and who isn’t these days?) and find her practical, gentle, down-to-earth approach to difficult situations always deeply healing, always .  Nina is one of those people in life that you feel lucky to have met, and it is a real gift to personally experience her work.      Anthony Smokovich, Spiritual Guide and Counselor, Saratoga Springs, New York.

"Nina’s made an impact on me and my life. I’ve known her for some years now; there’s something about her way of listening that makes me feel fully seen and appreciated. A little over a year ago, Nina listened to me whine (comes naturally) about my lack of talent. Messing up canvas after canvas must mean there’s no point in trying, crap self-talk like that. Offhand, Nina responded, “It’s only paint.” Changed my life. I’ve been lucky enough to interact with Nina as her client and as a friend. Nina’s calls, group and one-to-one, are places I always love to be. In my case, it takes a village to guide me as I learn to let go of my habitual "stinking thinking". In my village, Nina Lockwood is a tribal chief. Just sayin’… " Sue Kearney, Artist • Branding Maven • Coach, SueKearney.com, Santa Rosa, CA.
"I believe you to be a vessel of extraordinary gifts which you have nurtured and explored for most of your life. And now I have the gift of learning and growing from all that you have learned and continue to learn. You are gifted beyond measure and it is joyful to connect with someone like you who is doing (exactly?) what you are meant to do. On a personal note when I first met you I was mystified by your calmness and soothing communication skills. I was thinking  and feeling who is this person? But I am so happy to have finally come into your circle of enlightenment with your gentle and loving encouragement. In love and gratitude for this awesome experience."  Connie Jensen, St. George, Utah

"I found working with you to be more helpful than a year of traditional counseling. You were amazingly insightful and, as such, honed in on thoughts, fears and insecurities I wasn't even aware of even after 10 years of traditional therapy. But you worked with me with such love and gentleness it didn't hurt at all. In fact, I've felt a subtle yet significant shift in my way of thinking - with the focus taken off the negative and onto the  many possibilities before me! Thank you!"   Cheryl R, Albany, NY

"You will love working with Nina! Nina emanates creativity, integrity, knowledge, heart-centeredness, wisdom, self-empowering strategies, groundedness and deep compassion. This holds true whether she  is teaching, coaching or mentoring.  I have worked with Nina in a number of ways and she is a joy to work with. Her dedication to well-being, positive energy and empowering clients is beautiful to behold. "  
Cynthia Hutchison,  DNSc,RN, MSN, HTCP/I, former Director, Healing Touch Program. ​
