Meet Victoria
Raise Your State ~ A Sanctuary of Remembrance
Victoria Allen is a quiet force–an unwavering guide for women who sense the life they’ve built no longer fits the awakening impulse that is stirring within them.
Her work is a blend of science, soul, and somatic wisdom. It invites the nervous system to soften, the mind to clarify and the heart’s wisdom to become embodied –lived not just understood.
She doesn’t fix. She mirrors. Her reflection reminds you of what’s already alive inside you.
Through sacred inquiry and compassion, she guides her clients and students from fear based beliefs and patterns to the courage to make loving choices. From self-abandonment to alignment with their heart and values. From proving their worth to embodying it.
What she reflects back is not a new self– but the one that was always there waiting beneath the patterns.
For Women At A Turning Point
There comes a moment in time, a holy moment, a pause in the relentless daily rhythm, when something inside you whispers: No more.
Whether it arrives quietly…a restlessness, a growing intolerance for what you’ve endured, an irritability bubbles up without reason, or you drag around with chronic fatigue.
OR, it crashes in without warning…a diagnosis that stops you in your tracks, a betrayal that shatters the life you thought you knew, a relationship unraveling despite all you’ve poured into it.
You stand at a crossroad.
A threshold where your soul stops whispering and begins to speak~~ you are ready to live a life that feels true within you.
If this is you, I’ve got you.
The Heart of Her Work
Together with her husband Tosh, Victoria created Raise Your State — a sacred space where men and women come to remember the fullness of their heart, the depth of their truth, and the aliveness within them.
For over 35 years, Victoria has led transformational retreats and workshops across the globe, guiding women to reclaim the parts of themselves they’ve denied or buried. Together she and Tosh bring this work to some of the most spiritually potent places on earth—Machu Picchu, India, Costa Rica, Sedona, Santa Fe, Ojai and the pyramids of Teotihuacan.
Each destination is chosen with intention. The land itself becomes part of the teaching.
Her Lineage & Training
Victoria’s work is a living tapestry, woven from the threads of psychotherapy, nursing, dreamwork, yoga, and deep spiritual inquiry.
🌀 Bachelor’s in Nursing
🌀 Certified OB-GYN Nurse Practitioner
🌀 Master’s in Psychology
🌀 Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT)
🌀 Certified New Agreements Coach
🌀 Trained Svaroopa-style yoga teacher
🌀 Apprentice of Don Miguel Ruiz, author of The Four Agreements
Among her many teachers, her apprenticeship with Don Miguel Ruiz instilled a foundation she carries into everything –the practice of living with impeccability, clarity, and inner freedom.
But what she brings to her work today is entirely her own — a body of wisdom shaped by 35 years of walking alongside women, by her own initiations, and by a deep commitment to the truth that love is not outside of you, and worthiness is not earned. It is remembered.

Let’s remember together.
“Victoria, you have given me the tools to escape my suffering. There can be no greater gift! As you know, I have received teachings from many different venues, yet I was frustrated because I still couldn’t change. You have an uncanny perception that consistently challenges me to find truth and grow my authenticity. My life’s foundation has strength and stability from the simple and clear toolbox I have created from your work. You are a powerful blessing.”
“It was difficult for me to even admit how closed down I was. With so much deep meditation in my history I thought I should be more together, but that work hadn’t really shifted greatly in the areas that mattered most to me. I wanted to love. I was incredibly discouraged-disheartened. As I’ve worked the love-stalking practices with Victoria, my fear-based reality has been dismantling. I am for the first time in my life, actually happy–joyful to be alive each day. And still, months after my last trip to Teotihuacan, Mexico, with Victoria and Tos, the fear, at least as the tyrant of my life is gone. And with that, my heart is opening. Victoria is a brilliant facilitator, creating a safe space to bring out the tender places within me.”
“I could see changes in my friend. With a little skepticism, I decided to work with Victoria and keep an open mind. My goal was to open myself up to my emotions and to love. Through dreaming and personal sessions with Victoria, I quickly gained awareness of how my thoughts, actions and self-identity were controlled by my judgments and opinions about certain events in my life. Learning to recognize and let go of those judgments wasn’t easy. I was surprised to learn how decoding my dreams could heal wounds at a deep, emotional level. Victoria was an incredible guide through this process. She is insightful, compassionate and tough when I needed it, yet always with love, humor and absolutely no judgment. I still have a ways to go yet I am beginning to see how amazing it is to live my life with freedom, and the joy and peace that goes with it. I am very grateful to be going through this process and to have such a remarkable person to guide me through it.”
