Kristen Estill

Kristen offers grounded, science-informed meditations and teachings, including lectures, seminars, and reflective practices, for people who want to understand their inner world with curiosity and compassion. Her work trusts the listener’s capacity for depth, reflection, and thoughtful engagement, drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and contemplative practice. Kristen holds a summa cum laude B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Health, Medicine, and Human Values from the University of New Mexico, where she conducted two years of neuroscience research as part of a biomedical NIH grant. Her current work bridges science and soul—exploring how the nervous system, psyche, and spirit can be supported through both empirical insight and archetypal, psychological, and narrative frameworks. She is certified by HeartMath and shares resources, mentorship, and offerings through her wellness company, SoundMindScience, where she guides others in cultivating grounded, soulful well-being. She also serves as the Executive Director of the International Gothic Literature Society, where she promotes public scholarship and explores the Gothic as a lens for shadow integration and Jungian psychology.
