ABOUT US
Mija’s Sacred Place is more than just a wellness spa—it’s a sanctuary in the heart of Los Angeles, where deep transformation and holistic healing take root. Founded by lifelong Angelenas, mother-daughter duo Julie and transformation coach Genise, Mija’s was born from a shared vision: to create a space where healing, self-discovery, and well-being could thrive without leaving the city.
About the brand
"We created Mija’s because we saw a need—a space where people could reconnect with themselves, heal, and feel supported in their journey toward wholeness. We wanted to offer a place that felt like home, where mind, body, and spirit could be nurtured in harmony."
At Mija’s Sacred Place, the experience goes beyond the physical space. Julie and Genise bring years of wisdom, guidance, and heartfelt insight, creating an environment where people feel truly seen and supported. Whether you’re seeking personal transformation, a moment of stillness, or a deeper connection to yourself, Mija’s offers not just a healing space—but a home for your soul.
Their search for the perfect setting led them right back to their own backyard, where they uncovered a hidden gem waiting to be transformed. Behind a beautifully restored 1909 Craftsman bungalow, they began shaping an urban oasis—a tranquil retreat complete with a recreational pond, a cascading waterfall, and lush greenery designed to soothe the soul. Every detail was crafted with intention, ensuring that each visitor feels embraced by peace and restoration the moment they step inside.
Step into a sanctuary where city life fades away, and healing begins.
BRAND VALUES
SELF-LOVE
Self love is the devotion we have to our spirit and is the basis for all self improvement. It helps us to find our life path. We enlighten others around us when we lead by example, creating daily routines and affirmations that cause ripple effects in our circle of influence.
GRATITUDE
Having gratitude teaches us that we are already whole. When we hold the feeling of gratitude, we see the good in everything. It is a reminder that we always have more than enough. When we have faith, even our mistakes are lessons.
COURAGE
Living in courage helps us to create a life that we deserve by building boundaries and knowing our worth. We inspire just by being ourselves. This allows us to move forward in growth by doing uncomfortable things, exploring novelty and living a balanced and fulfilling life.
