Background:
Shonté Johnson, MSW is a graduate of the 200-hour Unplug Meditation Teacher Training.
Her background is in social welfare and public policy. She served alongside elected officials such as Congresswoman Barbara Lee and Los Angeles City Mayor Eric Garcetti. Shonté is a graduate of the University of California Berkeley where she disseminated and published scholarly research on homelessness in America. She earned her Master of Social Welfare with a concentration in Social and Economic Justice from the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs.
After relocating to Los Angeles, Shonté experienced difficulties with transitioning, adjusting to culture shock, and family separation. In search of solace, she sought out coping mechanisms using yoga, meditation, breathwork, and sound and crystal therapy. Shonté eventually found herself immersed in studying various alternative-healing modalities earning several certifications including Reiki Master/Teacher and 200-hour Mindful Hatha Yoga Teacher. She studied with a diverse group of teachers including renowned and globally recognized medicine men and women (shamans), spiritual leaders, and spiritual mentors. Extensive personal study and life experiences led Shonté to exit her career in social services and enter into the wellness industry.

Shonté serves under the pseudonym Beauty Divine as an Energy Medicine Practitioner offering Reiki, Sound and Crystal therapy, and Emotional Freedom Technique known as EFT or meridian tapping.

Shonté draws on her passion to guide meditation journeys that take participants on a self-journey to holistic health, enlightenment, growth, and self-inquiry.
