Hey friend! I’m Salena Clay, founder of Salyana Essentials LLC and a Health & Wellness Coach who believes that wellness doesn’t have to feel heavy, overwhelming, or all-consuming.
For over two decades, I built a successful career in Fortune 500 corporate environments, until I reached a point many high achievers know too well. I believed exhaustion was simply the cost of success. I ignored the early signals: chronic stress, depleted energy, and blurred boundaries. Eventually, my body made the decision for me.
That moment led to six months of intentional rest and rebuilding. It reshaped my understanding of sustainable wellness. I learned that true well-being is about understanding your body’s needs and creating practices that respect your real capacity.
That experience sparked my transition into wellness work. In 2020, I founded Salyana Essentials LLC. In 2025, I completed formal Health & Wellness Coach training through the Institute of Holistic Integrative Studies in preparation for NBHWC board certification. Today, I support students, professionals, and entrepreneurs in making meaningful changes before stress turns into burnout or crisis.
How I Work
My coaching style is supportive, collaborative, and grounded in real life. I bring light humor, natural optimism, and a genuine belief in your ability to create change. I meet you where you are, ask thoughtful questions, and help you uncover what works best for your life and schedule. You remain in the driver’s seat—I’m your steady, informed navigator.
I understand the pressure to “push through” and postpone rest. I also know that generic wellness advice rarely works in demanding environments. My approach blends lived experience, evidence-based coaching practices, and deep respect for the complexity of modern life.
Most people wait until their body starts shouting.
I help you learn to hear the whispers and respond with intention.
The Wellness House is a 90-day wellness coaching experience designed to help clients create meaningful, sustainable change by exploring their lives through a simple, intuitive framework. Each area of life is viewed as a “room” in a house. Some rooms may feel strong and supportive, while others may need attention or renovation. Rather than trying to fix everything at once, clients are guided to focus on the areas that matter most during this season of life. This program is collaborative, reflective, and client-led, offering space to build clarity, confidence, and momentum without overwhelm. Clients may choose to re-enroll for additional 90-day cycles, focusing on new “rooms” as their needs evolve. Note: After clicking on the “Book a Program” button, please be sure to uncheck the “Schedule your session later” box to see the calendar for scheduling.
CREATE Your Vibe is a fun, interactive virtual program where middle schoolers in grades 6-8 (ages 11-14) use creative expression, music, and hands-on activities to build real wellness skills during spring break. This is NOT another boring online class. Over 5 consecutive days (April 6-10, 2026), students receive a mystery box filled with supplies for 5 hands-on projects. Each day, we open a NEW envelope together (surprise style!) with that day's project supplies. Students work in small groups (5-10 max), participate in breakout room activities, share ideas, and build practical skills they need for navigating middle school stress, friend drama, and feeling overwhelmed. No lectures. No worksheets. Just creative exploration, peer connection, and tools they'll actually use. Perfect for spring break when students are home, parents need productive activities, and everyone's ready for a reset before the final push to summer. _____________________________________________________________________________ PROGRAM DETAILS 📅 Dates: April 6-10, 2026 (Monday-Friday) ⏰ Cohort Times: Morning Cohort: 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM EST Afternoon Cohort: 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST Both cohorts cover identical content—choose the time that works best for your family! ⏱️ Duration: 2 hours daily, 10 hours total 💻 Format: Virtual via Zoom (with breakout rooms for small group activities) 👥 Group Size per Cohort: Minimum 5 students, Maximum 10 students (intimate, interactive cohort) 💰 Investment: Early Bird: $227 (register by March 15, 2026, and save $20!)
