Darren Hagood

Darren and Gloria Hagood are the co-founders of HealYourLovePeriod (HYL.), a wellness company delivering practical, science-informed healing through breathwork, sound healing, and guided meditation. Both hold a degree in Biblical Text and a Master of Divinity; Gloria is also a board-certified chaplain. With more than a decade of leadership in ministry and care settings, they bring a grounded, compassionate approach to modern healing.

After years serving in nonprofits, schools, and hospitals, they saw a clear gap: people needed simple, accessible ways to calm the nervous system, release anxiety and trauma, and reconnect with themselves between Sundays and doctor’s visits. HYL. was created to meet that need—welcoming people of every background and lifestyle.

Since then, HYL. has served over a thousand clients through in-person wellness circles across New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Tennessee, plus weekly virtual sessions. Their approach blends breath science and therapeutic sound with culturally aware facilitation. Participants consistently report deeper calm, better sleep, reduced anxiety, and a grounded sense of clarity after sessions.

Beyond facilitation, Darren and Gloria teach a breath and sound healing training and mentor emerging practitioners. Whether guiding a room of beginners or coaching leaders, their aim is the same: make healing accessible and sustainable—so people can feel well, love well, and live with purpose.
