This is me.

This is me. My name is Luciana Santaguida. Some of you might have known me as Alexandria. Here is a quick look into my life and what has led me to share music and wellness with the world.

Hello world, community, family and friends. This is me. My name is Luciana Santaguida. I am the Founder of NÜLOVE. Some of you might have known me as Alexandria. Here is a quick look into my life and what has led me to share music and wellness with the world.

As most of us, I have gone through a unique journey to get to this point in life. 

Some of you might know me from my yoga classes, sound baths or NÜLOVE events, maybe from my music, or maybe this is your first time reading about me. In either case, I’m happy you’re here with me so I can share with you a little bit more about myself and my journey so far.

The Turning Point

In my teen years, depression, anxiety and mental illnesses like anorexia and body dysmorphia, were prominent and affected my day to day life. My self esteem was low and my consumption of alcohol and marijuana was high. I was social but felt alone and isolated.  

It escalated in 2011 when I became suicidal and bulimic. I couldn’t stand being here anymore, but knew I didn’t want to leave. My only choice was to change my life. During that time I was in second year university and I had started singing with friends I had made in the music program at McGill. I had also taken up doing hot yoga several times per week. Those were the only things that kept me going. 

When I decided to drop out of school for music, I was dedicated to changing my life completely. I read books, was in therapy, took courses on energy healing, worked with healers and went on retreats. By the time 2015 rolled around, I was a certified Reiki Master, Yoga Teacher and had been singing with the crystal singing bowls for over 3 years. I had released 2 music EPs and placed my song in an international Mercedes Benz ad campaign and performed sold out shows around Toronto. 

Music and Wellness, the two things that saved my life, remain the two things that I share with the world. It’s my hope that sharing the tools, music and skills that I’ve acquired can also help others change their lives, and maybe save someone’s life too. It’s almost like my massive pay it forward, but I’m doing it with my entire life purpose. 

The birth of NÜLOVE

In 2016, NÜLOVE was born. I was a pioneer in Toronto. Bringing unique events to our City with yoga, live music, sound baths, cacao, vendors and a dance party. I only expected to do one event, but after the first one sold out, people kept asking me when the next one was. The rest is history from there.

NÜLOVE evolved into sound baths, breath x sound experiences, sacred medicine journeys, sound bath music albums, yoga programs and corporate wellness programs. More recently, into an online studio space, women’s masterminds and mentorship & coaching programs.

This Is Me

Music is still at the forefront of my life and my purpose. I create music every week, and have been releasing music since 2012. My meditation music is widely listened to on Insight Timer and Youtube by people from all over the world. Knowing that my music has created powerful and positive impact on people’s state of being is so rewarding for me.

NÜLOVE embodies all of me. My values, my beliefs, my lifestyle choices, my love for the Earth and community, and my taste and love for music. It really is me in brand form. But it wouldn’t be anything without you. 

So my gratitude and appreciation goes out to you for spending your time with me. For attending my events, supporting my music and being a member of my community and studio space. 

THIS IS ME. 

I’m excited to continue evolving alongside you, guiding you and leading you through this journey we call life. 

With love, 

Luciana Santaguida
