Today we’d like to introduce you to Alessandra Stenta.
Los Angeles-based professional dancer and wellness expert Alessandra Stenta has created a 21-Day Wellness Program called “Aspire with Alessandra”, that provides tools to help us tune into our greatest potential, and live a life filled with happiness and fulfillment, no matter the circumstances.
Stenta has danced with some of the biggest names and brands in the music and entertainment industry, including Snoop Dogg, Meghan Trainor, Paris Hilton, J Balvin, Rich the Kid, Roddy Rich, Adidas, Disney, Beachbody and 20th Century Fox’s American Horror Story, just to name a few. While continuing her dance career, Stenta started working on a wellness program more than a year ago. She was hesitant to launch it during this global pandemic. Luckily, some of her greatest friends encouraged her, knowing that this could be the most important time to launch the 21-Day Wellness Program. “This is when the world may need it the most, and it could absolutely change lives,” Stenta said.
The program has gained astonishing attention worldwide in just the first week of its launch, and already has remarkable testimonials from participants raving that they “needed this so badly [during COVID-19] and can already feel the benefits in the first couple of days.” Stenta’s program provides concrete courses of action to help master mental wellness as we cope with the rollercoaster-ride of this global pandemic.
Stenta was first introduced to the practice of mental wellness ten years ago while completing her Bachelor of Science Degree in Biochemistry. She was pursuing a career as a dentist and made a pit stop traveling to India, and gained certifications in yoga and spirituality. She eventually declined dentistry school and followed her life-long passions of dance, entertainment, fitness and wellness.
“I always loved science but knew that dentistry was not my life’s calling,” Stenta said. “I started searching for answers in spirituality and became very intrigued with yoga, meditation and the power of the mind. The more I learned of spirituality and studied the chakra system and energy work, the more I saw how all these concepts are related to science and the biochemical systems of our body. I began to see that science and spirituality are intrinsically related. I grew obsessive in researching scientific journals on neuroscience and neuroplasticity, and how these concepts relate to mental wellness and our endless abilities as humans.”
Aspire with Alessandra is designed to be an engaging, hands-on approach to wellness that is loaded with questions, exercises and tools of action! The e-book is separated into four parts: Reason for Being, the Morning Ritual, the Wind Down and the 21-Day Challenge. Stenta pushes participants to focus attention inward, asks deep and meaningful questions, and gets participants to complete daily morning and evening exercises as a part of the 21-Day Challenge.
The 21 Day Wellness Program is the consolidation of all her years of study, research and personal practice. Stenta credits these teachings and practices to completely changing her life. “They allowed me to uncover my true self and my true desires,” she said. “They allowed me to gain the mental strength to dream big, pursue my life-long passions and accomplish my greatest ambitions! It’s our life’s mission to shine! There is immense strength and power in each of us, but it’s up to us to realize it.”
Aspire with Alessandra is designed for everyone. “I believe that anyone, no matter what walk of life, will greatly benefit from these concepts and practices, especially through the stressful times of COVID-19,” Stenta explained. The 21-Day Wellness Program, Aspire with Alessandra, includes a 60-page e-book and a 15-minute guided meditation. The program is available to download on Alessandra Stenta’s website, www.alessandrastenta.com.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
A journey of self-discovery is never a smooth road, but it’s always the right one.
I was completing my Biochemistry degree and had just been accepted to Dentistry school. That was a huge goal for me, except, once I got it, I wasn’t happy at all. Life hit me like a ton of bricks, and for the first time in my life, I didn’t have a clue what I wanted to do.
I always loved science but knew that dentistry was not my life’s calling. I graduated with my Biochemistry degree, and to everyone’s disapproval, declined Dentistry school. I was lost. I started searching for answers in spirituality and became very intrigued with yoga, meditation, and the power of the mind. I spent two months in India training to become a yoga instructor and diving deep into its spiritual teachings.
The more I learned of spirituality, the mind, the chakra system, and energy work, the more I saw how all these concepts are related to science and the biochemical systems of our body. I began to see that my two passions, Science & Spirituality are intrinsically related. I grew obsessive in researching scientific journals on neuroscience, and neuroplasticity, and how these concepts relate to mental wellness, and our endless abilities as humans.
This program is the consolidation of all my years of study, research, and personal practice in mental wellness. It is light on concepts, and is designed to be very engaging, with a lot of physical written exercises, practices, and concrete tools of action!
All these teachings and practices have completely changed my life. They allowed me to uncovermy true self and my true desires. Now I am pursuing my life long passions of dance, fitness, entertainment, and wellness!
It is our life’s mission to shine! There is immense strength and power in each of us; it’s up to us to realize it!
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I do not believe in luck. I truly believe that everything happens for a reason. There is no such thing as good luck or bad luck. It’s always good. It’s all for a reason. It may not make sense in the moment, but it soon will.
