Hi! I'm Yinki
My goal is to help you achieve holistic wellness, alignment, self-love & acceptance.
All through awareness of body, mind and spirit. Thank you so much for being here. I look forward to connecting with you.

I’m a Sound Healing & Meditation Facilitator and Health/Life/Wellness Coach in training based in Hong Kong. I am the founder of Yin-Ki Wellness & Coaching, and the Director of Wellbeing at Body Banter (an NGO that advocates for positive Body Image & Mental Health). I attended Barnard College, Columbia University in New York, and obtained a MSc in Art Business in London.
I blend holistic and mindfulness wellness techniques to help you achieve mental, emotional, and spiritual clarity. I am certified in Meditation and Pranayama (100 Hours YTT) & Yoga Teacher Training (200 Hours) through the International Yoga Alliance, Sound Healing Practitioner Diploma level 1 & 2. My additional certifications include a Plant Based Nutrition course with Cornell University, 8-Week Foundational Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course (MBSR), Crystal Therapy & Singing Bowls Sound Healing Diploma & Reiki 1. I am currently receiving training from the Health Coach Institute.
My work has been featured in South China Morning Post, Soho House, Honeycombers, Liv Magazine, Localiiz, and many more.
I work on myself every day so that I can be the best I can be. For me, and for you. I practice what I preach, and am devoutly committed to my morning practice where I cultivate stillness and clarity. I am open to growth and an expansive mindset.
Alignment is so important to me because it means connection and wholeness. The energy of alignment feels calm to my nervous system, and relief. I hope to share this with you through my practice and sessions.
Abundance has taught me to return to source, to dive deep into myself to learn the wisdom of my soul. Instead of coming from limitations, I invest in source. Knowing that there is room for all of us to succeed and grow.
Mental health is my priority. My goal in life is to remove the negative stigma around mental health, and normalise talking about mental health as one would their physical health. If someone tears an ALC or breaks a bone, they are able to take time off and share their circumstance without much hesitation. Yet, mental health struggles and experiences are often met with a different response.
After experiencing depression during my early university years, I am proud to share that I have been healing and recovered with the help and support of professional and holistic therapists, and being mindful and aware. I don’t rely on clinical help anymore, yet am always in the path and process of healing. I now vow to always put my mental health first, and dedicate my life to de-stigmatise mental health.
When I was experiencing depression, I didn’t even understand what was happening as no one spoke about this, especially at school. Yet, I reached the breaking point where I needed to face the depression. I was scared to share it with my immediate circle and environment for fear of judgement. It was a process and still is - yet the biggest breakthrough was reaching out to various sources of support and having the courage to accept what was happening. There was no “one pill fix all solution”, but truly a combination of mindfulness, yoga, meditation, exercise, talk therapy, spirituality, faith in myself, digging deep into my own fears, and radical self love and self care that helped and continue to help me through the ebb and flow of life.
As I write this now, I am so proud to share my experience. I am now a life long pursuer of healing with a holistic approach. I am also happy to share that my family and friends have been compassionate and supportive during the rough times. My work going forward is to support those who are going through similar issues, through sharing my own Health/Life Coaching and Sound Healing services. All of these Holistic Healing techniques are what got me back on my feet.
This is why I aim to give back to others, because of the incredible support I’ve been given by my own talk therapist, sound healing therapist, health & compassion coach, confidence coach and soul coach. To have someone who can work with your specific issues, and be a source of compassion is a support like no other.
Although it feels nerve wracking to share my experience, I am doing so to own this circumstance and not let it own me. Authenticity is my anchor, transparency is my truth. Now I know that depression doesn’t define me. I used to say “my depression” a lot, but now I am able to separate this mental struggle as a different entity. It was an experience that made me who I am, but it is not me. I am a firm believer that if I want to see change, I need to be the change. The work that I’m doing now truly feels like I’m able to step into my higher purpose and my intention is to facilitate those who are ready and willing to take this leap too.
This is why I do the work that I am doing. I want to let others know the path of recovery is possible, and be an example of someone who has healed and is healing, is joyful and is beaming with life through Holistic Wellness. I hope to connect with more incredible souls who are on this path of loving themselves and who are courageously diving into the deep end.
If I can do it, you can too! I believe in you x
I would love to connect with you and get to know you better! Please reach out and connect with me.
