We had the good fortune of connecting with Bianca Abbott and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Bianca, is your business focused on helping the community? If so, how?
Miami has been my home for the past 9 years. This city has been the catalyst for me to come into my power as a modern-day medicine woman. I’m a bridge between Eastern and Western medicine. It is my mission to guide millions of people back to their truth and most vital state.

After a lifetime of trauma and a plethora of medical diagnoses, I healed myself. Now, I’m here to empower others to heal themselves. Through my dark night of the soul, I learned that self-love is the greatest medicine of all. We are the creators of our health and we have the power to heal anything when given the proper tools, education, and guidance.

In the last 3 ½ years, I’ve helped over a thousand people in 5 continents cleanse and detox their bodies through my online holistic fasting program called the Lunafast. My 10-day program helps my clients release harmful toxins, balance their microbiome, restore their gut health, transform their relationship with food, and empower the healer within. I also incorporate ayurvedic self-love rituals and kundalini yoga to facilitate a mind, body, and spiritual transformation.

As a holistic nurse practitioner, I treat a diverse range of clients with chronic and mental health dis-eases. My focus is to get to the root of the issue, which requires a holistic approach. Psychedelic medicine is a powerful tool to do that. In the last year and half, I’ve been administering ketamine and doing integration therapy as an adjunct therapy for my clients with depression, anxiety, psychosis, trauma, suicidal ideations, ADHD, and autoimmunity. In as little as 6 weeks, they can bounce back and have a profound transformation.

We are in a mental health crisis. It’s vital to shine light on the most powerful medicines and healers on the planet. Thank you Shoutout Miami for this opportunity to share my healing work. It’s an honor to be a part of the Miami community.

What should our readers know about your business?
My mother’s 39-year battle with HIV, my father’s passing, and my own health challenges brought me to my knees in surrender. I had no other choice, but to process my trauma and transform it through holistic healing and immune restoration. I have dedicated my life to stopping the cycle of addiction, mental dis-ease, and suicide in my familial and ancestral lineage. It finally stops with me and this is what I teach my clients. Disease is first learned in the family and can also be unlearned.

I have studied with master healers, shamans, and yogis all around the world that have been able to heal their patients of everything. The disease model of care prescribed by Western medicine does not work. It disempowers the patient by giving them a diagnosis and does not offer them the adequate tools to heal themself. I believe that everyone has a right to this ancient wisdom to achieve health sovereignty. This is why I created the LunaFast to empower my clients to tap into thriving health.

From the age of fourteen, I knew that Western medicine wasn’t the only solution, but I had to get the necessary education to understand how to bridge Eastern and Western medicine. I’ve been a dedicated Yogi for over 24 years and it’s a foundational therapy I do with my clients. I’m typically on my mat leading 4:30 am community Sadhana, guiding clients through integration therapy after a psychedelic journey, and hosting retreats in India, Nepal, and Bhutan. As a fifth-generation nurse and holistic nurse practitioner, I work with physicians, order tests and diagnostics, see clients in the clinic, and facilitate ketamine therapy at Mercy Hospital in Miami, Fl. This is how I master both worlds in my business. I merge the Eastern and Western philosophies and environments to give my clients the greatest scope of holistic therapies for quantum healing. It’s a dream to witness the bridge between these two worlds!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I want to shout out my mother, Sunny Abbott, my biggest inspiration and best friend. Through her lifelong battle with HIV, I witnessed her resilience and strength. She has been my greatest teacher and has empowered me to step into my dharma and life calling as a healer.
