Hello and welcome!
Hi, I’m Elena Gartshtein. I’m a software engineer and a well-being coach. I offer coaching and personal development training in my spare time, independently and outside of my full-time work in tech. This site is where I share that work—including online group trainings—and invite you to explore the ways I support growth and well-being.

With the relentless demands of work and life’s responsibilities, many of us struggle with excess body weight, low energy, stress, and negativity. For nearly two decades, I’ve been dedicated to helping busy professionals transform their bodies, boost their energy, build resilience to stress, and enhance their overall well-being. Along this journey, I have studied Ericksonian Hypnosis and became a certified Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Master Practitioner. In 2017, I also earned my certification as a Health Coach.
I’ve embraced every opportunity to make positive changes in my life. What I’ve enjoyed most is sharing my knowledge with friends and colleagues and helping them clarify and achieve their personal goals.
At the end of 2023, I discovered The Eight Pearls, an acclaimed system for mind and body training that provided the curriculum and the framework for the online emotional intelligence group trainings. This discovery was a breakthrough! After extensive research into human excellence, nutrition, and optimal performance, I now have a way to channel my passion, research, and life experience into hosting small group real time trainings.
I currently offer personalized one-on-one coaching sessions and lead an online personal development training center called Align With Harmony — you’ll see the name on our courses. I collaborate with a team of experienced trainers based in the U.S. and Europe. We’re a diverse group of professionals who share a passion for personal growth and dedicate our spare time to coaching. Since March 2024, we’ve been hosting online group trainings in both English and Russian.
