About Lina
A Journey from Pain to Purpose
Hi, I’m Lina , Lebanese-Canadian who left home at 18 in search of purpose and growth. My journey took me from Beirut, to Canada then China and eventually to Dubai, which I now call home. But the real journey began not with travel , but with transformation.
After years in a fast-paced corporate world, I felt deeply unfulfilled. In the midst of personal turmoil, I discovered yoga and meditation, not just as practices, but as a sanctuary. In 2014, I left my job, traveled to India, and spent a year in an ashram studying Hatha Yoga. When I returned to Dubai, I founded Yogi Truck, sharing outdoor yoga and meditation, while supporting causes close to my heart, including an orphanage in Kenya.
In 2017, I led my first international retreat in Dharamsala , a dream come true.
That same year, I was diagnosed with cancer. This experience shifted my purpose and led me to specialize in Yoga for Cancer Patients, offering rehabilitation programs focused on emotional and psychological healing.
Motherhood followed, along with the deep challenge of separation and divorce. Alone in a city far from family, I turned even more inward, practicing Kriya Yoga, cold plunges, Reiki, hypnotherapy, and many other holistic healing practices, which all became vital parts of my healing.
To stay grounded and grow through the storm, I enrolled in a Master’s program, and I now hold a Master’s degree in Psychology. That journey helped me integrate science with spirit, and deepened the way I support others.
Through all of this, Janna Sur Terra was born.
“Janna” means paradise in Arabic, “Sur” means on in French, and “Terra” is Latin for earth , together meaning Heaven on Earth. It’s a name that reflects my mission: to create a nurturing space for healing, growth, and transformation.
Today, my work is rooted in everything I’ve lived, everything I’ve healed, and everything I continue to learn.
I support cancer patients on their healing journeys , emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
I guide mothers, helping them navigate the day-to-day with more presence, ease, and self-love.
And I offer Sound Healing experiences, where I’m often invited to lead workshops and retreats, creating sacred spaces for transformation and inner balance.
Every offering in this space has been thoughtfully created to guide you home to yourself. And to further empower you, I’m working closely with trusted professionals to bring you the best of holistic healing modalities , all rooted in love and intention.
Because I’ve walked through pain… and I’ve come through softer, stronger, and more devoted to helping others heal , one breath, one step, one moment at a time.
So whether you’re seeking emotional healing, physical recovery, or deeper balance, this space is for you.
Reserve your space, and begin your journey toward peace, purpose, and wholeness , right here on Earth.
