Corey is a neuroscientist, functional medicine doctor with a doctorate in medical sciences and natural medicine. He is trained in neuroscience, functional medicine, epigenetics, breathwork, family constellations, trauma, concussive injuries, and plant medicine ceremonies. He’s a patient advocate who will listen to each symptom and every concern with the patience and loving compassion of a trusted friend. With an extensive knowledge bank of hands-on and personal life experience, Corey shares his confidence and capabilities to power an actionable change in your overall wellness.

Corey Deacon has been a trusted figure in functional medicine since 2014. He worked as a neurofeedback technician at the Brain Treatment Centre of Alberta while completing his doctorate in Natural Medicine from The Examining Board of Natural Medicine Practitioners™ Canada and received a Master’s of Science in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Greenwich. In his years of learning and honing his capabilities, Corey has earned a Certification in Functional Medicine and Certification in Integrative Oncology as well as a fellowship in Anti-Aging, Regenerative and Functional Medicine. He is an associate fellow and mentor in neurofeedback with the BCIA (Biofeedback Certification International Alliance) and a member of the ISNR (International Society for Neurofeedback Research). 

Since then, Corey has analyzed well over 20,000 magnetic resonance images (MRI) and quantitative EEG brain images to help thousands of patients across North America. But what sent him down a path riddled with medical mysteries in the first place? The answer lies in Corey’s natural desire to share his knowledge with other patients to help put the power back in their hands.

Corey Deacon co-founded Neurvana Health in September 2016 and has served as Medical Director since. His competencies include conditions and symptoms that are affected or caused by the central nervous and immune systems, from post-concussion syndrome to autoimmune disorders and an array of ailments in between. His ability to isolate causes and manifestations of mental health disorders and bioenergetic illness is impeccable.

There’s nothing more frustrating than putting your big plans on pause because a collection of symptoms have demanded your full attention, and no one knows that more than Corey Deacon. While attending university in his early 20s, Corey developed a chronic health issue that was coupled with mysterious inflammatory symptoms.

Each day, Corey battled fatigue, headaches, and muscle weakness, while brain fog, concentration, and emotional issues wreaked havoc on his mental health. Once panic attacks became a daily staple for him, Corey set out to uncover what was awry in his nervous system. He ultimately discovered a neuroimaging technique called quantitative EEG, which led Corey down his current path. 

“One of the reasons why I do what I do and specialize in what I specialize in is that it took me a long time to figure out the moving parts of my health issues. Conventional medicine didn’t have proper treatment or anything that they could really help me with. It was a trying time for me, but it was one of the best things that have ever happened to me, to be honest.” — Corey Deacon, CFMP, MSc, DNM, BCN, FAARFM, ABAAHP

In the pursuit of understanding the deepest causative factors of disease/disorders, Dr. Corey found the answer; consciousness. Our vehicle of consciousness interacts with the universal energy of love through many different components. These include environmental, physical, bioenergetic, emotional, intellectual, intuitive, archetypal, spiritual/soul and unified source components. Sickness and suffering occur when these components are not aligned with each other, creating resistance patterns and mental, physical, and emotional stress that will linger until alignment is achieved. The process of defining this includes a neuroscientific method of quantitative EEG (brain mapping) and quantitative MRI and a deep understanding of history to determine personalized biopsychosociospiritual paths for each individual he guides. 

This pursuit has led him to become a co-founder of Diversum; specializing in clinical training for professionals, healing retreats, consciousness coaching, and collective trauma healing containers shifting the world from fragmentation through actualization to the illumination of the new earth. Corey’s heart, soul and relationship to source illuminate the core center of Diversum’s mission; to heal the illusion of separation.

Sachiko guides healing through Neurofeedback, and is a Certified Embodiment Coach, and Reiki Practitioner with a degree in Psychology. Outside of these varied titles, Sachi accesses talents in singing, dancing, playing the ocarina and piano, aerial arts, mixed martial arts, writing, dungeon mastering, improv, authentic relating, existential kink, cooking, building, and creating of any flavor. 

A life-long learner, Sachi has always relished in the challenge of bridging the gaps to teach others the ways from knowing to doing and doing to being in the educational journey. While working in the neuroscience realm and empowering others with EEG-derived information to improve their health and learn more deeply about themselves, Sachi became frustrated that this technology and information wasn’t being used more readily in easily accessible applications. When Corey suggested they start creating a course to bring his knowledge in the Functional Medicine field together with EEG, it was an obvious and resounding YES! Diversum was born and quickly grew to incorporate other like-minded individuals and wisdom that had common roots in the same goal; to meet people where they are at, show them where they can go, and empower them to get there.

From a young age, Sachi deeply felt a sense of otherness and often isolated and shut off the outside world in an attempt to protect herself. The outside world responded by cranking up the volume ten-fold; Sachi faced the beasts of sensory overload, auditory distortions, chronic pain, head injury, and an over-intellectualized cognitive perspective (to name a few). Then, through neurofeedback, upper-cervical chiropractic work, circus-community building, and an ever-present superpower of going deep within, she contended with these beasts of the outside world, and they now fight alongside her to help others. Sachi allowed herself to be reached by a compassionate few and recognized an essential part of her journey was the connections she made along the way! Sachi is vigilantly able to see the spaces for suffering and joy in others after discovering the same present potential in herself. Careful and consistent watering, enjoying, and harvesting the garden of her sense of self, Sachi’s centredness can contagiously influence those she works with to find their own superpowers and see their own medicine.

The ever-evolving adventurer Sachi would love to join your journey. Whether you need an Emotional Support Introvert, NeuroNerd, Embodied Monk, Narrative Challenger, Perspective Shapeshifter, Word Wizard, Prophet of Potentials, Shaman of Simplicity, or Creative Chameleon she’s ready to step in where she is needed, shine the light of awareness on your highest Self, then guide you down the path of actualizing it for yourself.

Cassedi has dedicated her life to the ray of Divine love. When we offer ourselves fully in service to God, we become an instrument of That Divine Grace and radiate it outward and within, cleansing ourselves of our karma and freeing us to serve. Cassedi utilizes devotion and concentration to live in the spine, in the Center, and support others to do the same. Through utilizing the creative power of our minds, we may all find peace within and anchor that inner peace into our external experience of unity consciousness on this planet. Cassedi revels in sharing the gifts of her devotion through integrating cosmic play in the form of prayer, movement, contemplation, pranayama, somatic therapies, healing touch, chanting, silence, and sound to bring light and presence to our collective traumas, as we honor their lessons and merge back into One. 

Cassedi has been exploring the realms of consciousness from a young age, and following divinely guided expansion opportunities for the past 10 years, which have brought her across the US and Canada seeking experiences and opportunities to root into this work. After practicing as a physiotherapist for 1 year, Cassedi knew there was more to the chronic back and neck pain so rampant in our society. Having suffered from her own spinal discomforts over the years, Cassedi dedicated herself to exploring the underlying causes of chronic pain through committing to her own healing journey. On this path Cassedi has had the pleasure of facilitating 1-to-1 intuitive body work, breathwork, and sound healing sessions for the last 6 years. She expanded her focus to group work 4 years ago through facilitating women’s circles, integration circles, cacao and plant medicine ceremony, sound baths, holotropic breathwork, tantric connection circles, somatic trauma therapy with groups and individuals, and many co-facilitation creations, including training and support of new and experienced facilitators. 

Recently, Cassedi has become a dedicated devotee on the path of Kirya Yoga, and enjoys sharing her practices through guiding yoga asana practice, meditation, prayer, and chanting. She is also enjoying writing consciousness content for guiding others to find God through practical integration practices and contemplations they can bring into their daily lives. Cassedi has education in Collective and Ancestral Trauma Healing, Reiki, Aromatherapy Massage Techniques, Akashic Records Reading, The Gene Keys, Meditation and Mindfulness, Kinesiology, Yoga Teacher Training, and more. Cassedi is beyond thrilled to see science and mysticism coming together to create new opportunities for multidimensional healing and integration as we collectively reclaim love and unity for this planet and our entire human family.

Sydney is a dedicated and compassionate caretaker. Growing up with a sister with special needs, she quickly developed a deep love and passion for helping others. Sydney has naturally worked in the disability field for over a decade. Her mission has been to enhance the lives of individuals with special needs and mental health concerns by providing a safe space for them to learn and grow. Sydney also has a deep love for the arts, including pottery, watercolor painting, poetry, and music. Sydney often uses her art as a form of healing for both herself and those around her.

In her younger ages, she went through significant trauma, mentally and physically. Deep down, she always knew this would be a gift to be able to empathize and deepen her connection with others. She spent many years working diligently on her own mental health but could feel her body failing her, despite her efforts. When Sydney was introduced to Neurvana, she knew that she would do whatever it took to get healthy.  After a series of neurofeedback sessions, major lifestyle changes,  ending a long-term relationship, and attending a breathwork ceremony, she saw a shift in herself that she didn’t know was possible. This shift was the raising of her consciousness and reconnecting with her gifts of intuition, love and empathy. 

Within a few months, her entire life transformed. She became healthy, clear-minded, and connected to her most authentic self. She then came back into her faith, worked through decades of trauma, became a certified Reiki practitioner and found her Divine Union. Working alongside her spouse through her healing journey, they were both able to transform at an exponential rate. A major part of this was her ability to drop into her femininity and learn to trust the masculine again. Sydney and her spouse recognize the importance of polarity between the masculine and feminine as well as the healing power that holds for themselves and others when the energies are in harmonious balance.

Sydney is a huge advocate for the use of neurofeedback combined with ceremonies, and retreats for lasting spiritual growth and is an example of what courage, trust, and faith can do for the soul.

Marcus is a former athlete and dedicated his life to the sport of soccer. Since childhood, he loved to play sports of all kinds. His first word was “ball”, and his dream was to play professional soccer. He played in Germany, Holland, and finished his career playing for the University of Lethbridge. It was incredibly difficult for Marcus to give up his dreams of playing professional soccer, but after multiple injuries including many rolled ankles, a dislocated elbow, a dislocated shoulder, a fractured ankle, tendonitis in both knees, multiple concussions and minor brain damage, he decided to hang up his cleats and focus on healing his body and brain. He had no idea where this journey would take him.

In grade 7, Marcus suffered a brain injury that was left untreated for 10 years. He had difficulty focusing and had multiple mental health issues throughout his schooling years. His grades went from high 90’s to 50’s, and he struggled to graduate high school. Marcus was labeled with ADHD by conventional medicine and put on medication without identifying the root cause. In his second year of University, Marcus hit rock bottom. Since he lacked trust in the medical industry, he decided to become a “self-experimenter” and take his healing into his own hands. He went on an extensive personal development journey. He read over 200 books on health, mindset, spirituality, and personal growth. He tried anything he could to heal his mental health issues. Marcus found that meditation was the most productive practice for supporting his health and brain. He has now been meditating consistently for the past five years. 

Despite all his dedication and effort, Marcus hit a growth plateau when he was 25. This was when he made the decision to get his brain imaged by Corey and his team at Neurvana. This was a massive turning point for Marcus, and he felt like someone had finally taken the time to understand the root cause of his suffering. In a matter of 6 months, Marcus went through Neurofeedback training, NUCCA treatments, Transcranial Laser Therapy, multiple Ceremonies and became a Reiki Practitioner. He reached a level of consistent peace by healing his brain and body; a feeling he had not felt in years. 

In addition to all these treatments, he believes the reason he got healthy in such a short period of time was because of the unconditional love and support from his spouse, Sydney. Marcus and Sydney have witnessed miracles in their own life and work together to share messages of love and compassion with others. When Marcus and Sydney are together, they radiate the healing energy of unconditional love. 

Marcus finished his Bachelor of Management degree in 2020, and has been running a financial education business since 2019. He made a decision in his second year of University that he would only ever work with mission-driven companies. He is very passionate about the work that Diversum is doing. He believes with his skill set, he can help ground the team and develop systems that will eventually reach the entire world.

Val is skilled with “being” a Divine Witness and holding space for others. Her intuition and deep heart of compassion were born from a wide array of life experiences one might call “The School of Hard Knocks”. Her education and consistent efforts to fully embody healing for herself while being an example of hope and inspiration to others are ongoing.

Presently, she is studying Shamanism and plant medicines while passionately dedicated to creating spaces where people feel safe to be seen, to receive love, and to heal their hearts.

Elizabeth (Lizzy) is originally from Colombia, and her tropical nature brings a colorful energy that uplifts the souls who surround her. Having sat in many sacred ceremonies, she thrives by holding safe space by embodying the Divine Mother energy so that participants feel loved and protected. 

Her main purpose is to serve God and help humanity heal separation by practicing unconditional self love and forgiveness. Lizzy sees within every human heart a divine nature awaiting liberation. This awakening will help us manifest a world full of love and compassion; a heaven on Earth. 

Joy is a multicultural musician, meditator and deep medicine space holder on a mission to spread the message of peace, love and unity.Raised in a Jewish/Chilean household – music, ceremony and celebration was always at the forefront of his life. His welcome onto the spiritual path happened while he was completing his Masters in Global Business in Peru where he visited Machu Picchu and a seed was planted in his heart. From there he started a journey of spiritual soul searching; learning from Rabbis in Israel, Buddhist monks in Thailand, Krishna devotees in Cambodia and Gurus in India.

Home in Canada, his spiritual journey continued weaving its way from Vipassanas to cacao circles and then eventually into the magical world of deep mushroom ceremonies. After attending many ceremonies himself, he began training under multiple facilitators learning the art of holding deep ceremonial containers. And now, he and his partner — with their business Heart Fire Rising — facilitate ceremonies all over Canada and Central America. Joy is so excited to be a part of the incredible team putting on this amazing event and cannot wait to sing, dance and heal with you all!
