YOCASOUND é uma alquimia de yoga, cacau sagrado e soundhealing, do meu coração para o seu.
The cacao ceremony is a ritualistic practice deeply rooted in the indigenous traditions of Central and South America, especially among the Mayan and Aztec peoples. Today, this sacred ceremony has been revitalized and adapted by communities and practitioners around the world, serving as a powerful tool for spiritual connection, healing, and self-discovery.
Cocoa, rich in bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, tryptophan, polyphenols and theobromine, acts as a medicine that activates and circulates the heart's energy in our body. This process facilitates the natural production of serotonin and dopamine, promoting a state of active relaxation that enhances yoga and sound healing practices, allowing them to deepen to even more significant levels.
By combining cacao with yoga in one session, we offer a unique invitation to connect with the heart, intuition and ancestry. It is an opportunity to open up to ancient knowledge, revealing valuable information for those who are on a journey of inner search.
My encounter with sacred cocoa was a synchronicity that changed the course of my life. When I moved to Itacaré on the coast of Bahia, known as the Cocoa Coast, I had no idea that this region, rich in history and ancestry, would introduce me to such a vital medicine.
As a yoga practitioner and teacher for over a decade, I have always sought ways to deepen my spiritual connection and expand my practice. It was in this search that cocoa entered my life, in a natural and transformative way.
My initiation as a Guardian of Cocoa came as a calling from the plant itself. Through profound experiences and intense studies, I began to understand the power of cocoa not only as a food, but as a tool for healing, self-knowledge and socio-environmental responsibility.
Today, I integrate cacao into my yoga, meditation and sound healing practices, creating a unique experience that I call YOCASOUND. This alchemy of yoga, sacred cacao and sound healing was born from my personal journey and has become my way of sharing healing and transformation with the world.
