Join us on this magical and profound journey towards inner enlightenment

Dis–ease stems from energetic imbalances in the body rooted through traumas linked to our subconscious, emotions, frequencies, karma, chakras… Your body is miraculous in it’s ability to self-heal and will communicate to you through certain aches, discomforts or illness. At times we carry over past life’s traumas that show themselves as physical and mental pains.

This YTT is a journey inwardly to the self to increase awareness and break off your subconscious, self limiting beliefs and auto-pilot erroneous programs. By going deeper in yoga, breath work journeys, atha brain states, learn how to facilitate sound healing and cacao ceremonies, how to facilitate Usui Reiki healing sessions, and learn advanced pranayama. Enjoy breathwork journeys and sound healing journeys in this program to not only nurture, heal yourself but also facilitate these profound, ancient practices with others.
