O QUE MUDOU EM MIM QUANDO PERCEBI ONDE COLOCAR O MEU FOCO (engl 👇)
Este tem sido, para mim, um ano de foco e de atenção plena. Num ano conturbado, exigente e por vezes emocionalmente intenso, senti que a verdadeira questão não era o que estava a acontecer, mas onde eu estava a colocar a minha atenção.
Aprendi que o foco é uma escolha diária. E que viver em atenção plena não é um conceito abstrato nem um estado permanente de equilíbrio. É, antes, um exercício constante de regresso. Regresso ao essencial. Regresso ao que importa.
Ao longo deste ano, o meu foco foi-se afinando. Foi-se tornando mais claro que o lugar onde quero estar é no meu jardim interno, esse espaço invisível onde cultivo a minha paz, as minhas intenções, os meus valores. E também no meu jardim externo, feito das pessoas que amo, dos mais próximos que, sem saberem, me ensinam todos os dias o que significa estar verdadeiramente presente.
Este foi o ano em que me senti mais focada naquilo que realmente interessa. Não foi fácil. Continua a não ser. Há dias em que a atenção se dispersa, em que o ruído entra, em que a vida tenta puxar-me para fora do meu centro. Mas tenho-me treinado para isso. Treinado o olhar. Treinado a escuta. Treinado a capacidade de perceber quando me afasto e, com gentileza, puxar-me de volta.

E o teu ano, qual o balanço que fazes?
What changed in me when I realized where to place my focus.
This has been a year of focus and mindfulness for me. In a turbulent, demanding, and sometimes emotionally intense year, I felt that the real issue wasn't what was happening, but where I was placing my attention.
I learned that focus is a daily choice. And that living mindfully is not an abstract concept or a permanent state of equilibrium. Rather, it is a constant exercise of return. Return to the essential. Return to what matters.
Throughout this year, my focus has been refined. It has become clearer that the place where I want to be is in my inner garden, that invisible space where I cultivate my peace, my intentions, my values. And also in my outer garden, made up of the people I love, those closest to me who, without knowing it, teach me every day what it means to be truly present.
This was the year I felt most focused on what really matters. It wasn't easy. It still isn't. There are days when my attention wanders, when noise creeps in, when life tries to pull me away from my center. But I've trained myself for that. Trained my gaze. Trained my listening. Trained my ability to notice when I drift away and, gently, pull myself back.
I've learned to protect my focus like someone protecting something precious. Not to waste it on distractions that don't add anything, on worries I can't control, on paths I don't want to take. Because the focus I choose today silently builds the life I'm creating inside and around me.
I've also practiced mindfulness, not in long meditations or formal rituals, but in real life. In everyday life. In simple tasks. In family time. In being truly present while I am. In living each moment as if it were the first and, perhaps, the last. Because even when it repeats, it's never the same. It's never exactly that instant again.
I'm incredibly lucky to have people around me, big and small, who remind me of that every day. They show me, with their presence and spontaneity, that moments don't accumulate, they are lived. And that they deserve to be lived fully, without distractions, without haste, without always being halfway to another place.
It doesn't mean that I don't care about the state of the world, about the future of our young people and our children. I do care, of course I do. But I have learned something important: there is a difference between concern and presence. As someone I admire very much says, the word for the madness that is sweeping the world right now is acceptance. Not a resigned acceptance, but a conscious acceptance. I haven't stopped believing in change, I deeply believe in it. I desire it. But I know that change comes when we are ready for it. And that, often, what we can do is wait, trust and pray for the best.
All of this has been, for me, an inner journey. A path of alignment, of peace and of serenity possible in the midst of chaos. A year in which I learned that focus is not closing your eyes to the world, but choosing where to place your heart.
And today, I know more clearly than ever: where I place my focus, I find myself.
And this deep wish goes out to you: that you may find yourself in harmony with the world.
And your year how was it?

SEM TRAUMA NÃO HÁ CRESCIMENTO E A CIÊNCIA EXPLICA PORQUÊ (engl below)
A maioria das pessoas se pudessem escolher, escolheriam viver sem sofrimento. Mas e se eu te disser que o crescimento não acontece apesar do desconforto, mas por causa dele? Continua comigo e explico-te como.
O trauma (o microtrauma e adversidades moderadas) não te destrói, ele estrutura-te. Bem sei que quem procura a cura, está sempre a ver o trauma como o seu pior inimigo, mas a verdade é que é ele que te fortalece. Estudos em psicologia e neurociência mostram que o cérebro não é frágil, ele não só resiste ao stress moderado como se fortalece através dele. Crianças adolescentes e adultos expostos a desafios controlados, frustrações reais e falhas suportáveis desenvolvem maior capacidade de regulação emocional, tomada de decisão e persistência.
Agora vou contar-te algo que parece contraintuitivo.

E se precisas de ajuda a integrar o trauma, as consultas de Cura Xamânica estão a valor especial este mês e Janeiro.
Without trauma there is no growth, and science explains why.
Most people, if they could choose, would choose to live without suffering. But what if I told you that growth doesn't happen despite discomfort, but because of it? Stay with me and I'll explain how.
Trauma (microtrauma and moderate adversity) doesn't destroy you, it structures you. I know that those seeking healing always see trauma as their worst enemy, but the truth is that it strengthens you. Studies in psychology and neuroscience show that the brain is not fragile; it not only withstands moderate stress but is strengthened by it. Children, adolescents, and adults exposed to controlled challenges, real frustrations, and bearable failures develop greater capacity for emotional regulation, decision-making, and persistence.
Now I'm going to tell you something that seems counterintuitive. A study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology showed that people who experienced some moderate adversity throughout their lives had better mental health than those who reported no adversity.
Those who don't face trauma don't learn to process pain. Those who have faced extreme pain become overwhelmed. Those who have faced minor pain have learned to adapt.
Neuroscience confirms: moderate stress activates neural plasticity. This is how the brain learns to predict, adjust, and respond. This is how resilience is born, not as an innate trait, but as a trained skill.
It's important to reiterate that I'm not talking about deep traumas; these traumas don't structure, they fragment. The brain enters prolonged survival mode, and growth is based on defense.
Another essential point is that growth doesn't come from the trauma itself, but from the integration of the trauma. Studies on post-traumatic growth show that, when there is reflection, support, and meaning, even difficult experiences can generate greater emotional maturity, empathy, and clarity of values. Meaningless suffering destroys; understood suffering transforms.
Perhaps the greatest modern mistake is confusing care with the elimination of discomfort. By trying to spare ourselves all pain, we are unintentionally sparing ourselves the strength that comes from it.
Mild trauma is a demanding but honest teacher. It doesn't promise comfort, it promises competence. And in the end, perhaps that's what we all seek: not a life without pain, but a mind capable of traversing it to grow in Love.

O TEU CÉREBRO NÃO FOI FEITO PARA TE FAZER VENCER - E É POR ISSO QUE TU TE SABOTAS. (engl 👇)
Alguma vez sentiste que o teu próprio cérebro trabalha contra ti? Que, mesmo quando estás motivado/a, há sempre uma força invisível que te distrai, te puxa para trás, te cansa, te faz adiar e te afasta da vida que queres construir? Acredita: isso não é falta de vontade tua. É um design biológico. E, para piorar, o mundo moderno, especialmente com as redes sociais, está montado para explorar essa fragilidade. Isso chama-se “brain rot” ou apodrecimento cerebral.
A ciência diz: o teu cérebro foi moldado para sobreviver, não para prosperar. Ele não está a trabalhar para que tenhas sucesso, propósito, foco profundo ou uma vida extraordinária. O que ele quer é garantir que acordas vivo todas as manhãs. Por isso, ele prioriza o que é imediato, emocional, reativo e urgente, exatamente o tipo de estímulo que as redes sociais servem numa dose infinita e viciante. O teu cérebro está a ser ativado por gatilhos modernos, e essa combinação está a roubar-te clareza, foco e ambição.

Se queres receber um guia prático para treinares o teu cérebro a prosperar — com hábitos, rotinas, hacks neurocientíficos e um plano simples para reverter o tal “brain rot”, escreve “brain rot” nos comentários e envio-te.
The truth no one told you: your brain wasn't made to make you win – and that's why you sabotage yourself.
Have you ever felt like your own brain is working against you? That even when you're motivated, there's always an invisible force that distracts you, pulls you back, tires you out, makes you procrastinate, and keeps you away from the life you want to build? Believe me: it's not a lack of willpower on your part. It's a biological design. And to make matters worse, the modern world, especially with social media, is set up to exploit this weakness. This is called "brain rot."
Science says: your brain was shaped to survive, not to thrive. It's not working to ensure you have success, purpose, deep focus, or an extraordinary life. What it wants is to make sure you wake up alive every morning. So it prioritizes what is immediate, emotional, reactive, and urgent, exactly the kind of stimulus that social media serves up in an infinite and addictive dose. Your brain is being activated by modern triggers, and this combination is robbing you of clarity, focus, and ambition.
For thousands of years, survival depended on reacting quickly to threats, being attentive to the emotions of others, seeking immediate gratification, and avoiding risks. This was how people escaped predators, found food, and maintained social bonds. But today, these same primary brain structures are being bombarded by notifications, short videos, social comparisons, and constant emotional stimuli. To your brain, everything seems urgent, critical, and threatening. The result? More anxiety, less deep focus, more distraction, more comparison, and that constant feeling of "I'm not doing it."
And it's not your imagination. Studies show that an excess of rapid stimuli alters your attention pattern, reduces your tolerance for boredom (essential for deep work), and reinforces short-term dopamine circuits, the ones that make you refresh your feed without thinking. This is not a lack of discipline. It's neuroscience working exactly as it was programmed to work, only in a completely different environment.
But here comes the most important part: understanding this is not an excuse, it's power. When you understand that your brain wasn't designed for modern life, you realize that thriving isn't natural. It's intentional. It's training. A re-education. A conscious process in which you take command of your mind, because if you leave it on autopilot, it only leads you to survive, never to expand, grow, or achieve something extraordinary.
Thriving is a counter-current act. It's challenging your biological programming. It's choosing meaning instead of immediate reward. Construction instead of distraction. Purpose instead of instinct. Your brain wants to keep you safe, you have to teach it how to win.
If you want to receive a practical guide to training your brain to thrive — with habits, routines, neuroscientific hacks, and a simple plan to reverse that "brain rot," write "brain rot" in coments and I'll send it to you.

Do you feel your soul and body exhausted, and even the simplest things seem difficult?
If you've been living with constant anxiety, persistent sadness, insomnia, heavy thoughts, emotional emptiness, or the feeling of not belonging anywhere… this is not "weakness." It's your body, your mind, and your energy asking for rest, cleansing, and reconnection.
Shamanic Healing is an ancient practice of energetic cleansing and inner harmonization that helps you relieve the invisible weight you've been carrying for too long.
Through herbs, drums, gongs, maracas, medicinal oils, and shamanic techniques, you are guided to a deep state of calm, clarity, and expansion, as if you could finally breathe again.
During the session, we work on internal energies linked to emotional wounds, traumas, repetitive patterns, lack of motivation, or extreme fatigue, and external energies that may be wearing you down.
After the cleansing, vital energy is restored, returning strength, presence, and a feeling of alignment with who you truly are.
Benefits that many people report after shamanic healing:
• Reduction of anxiety and inner restlessness
• Emotional lightness and mental clarity
• Increased focus and decision-making ability
• More restful sleep
• More balanced relationships

SENTES O PESO DESTE ANO ?
Lê aqui como te libertares e como a ciência explica os benefícios ☆
(engl 👇)
Dezembro e Janeiro abrem um ciclo poderoso de transição e, segundo a psicologia, é exatamente nesta fase que rituais de renovação têm maior impacto na nossa mente e emoções.
Estudos da Harvard University (Gino & Norton, 2013) mostram que rituais simbólicos reduzem a ansiedade e aumentam a sensação de controlo emocional, mesmo quando a pessoa não acredita totalmente neles. Imagina quando acreditamos, até por experiência própria.
Pesquisas da University of Minnesota (Vohs, Wang & Gino, 2013) reforçam que rituais de “fecho de ciclo” ajudam o cérebro a organizar emoções e a criar uma sensação real de recomeço.
Da mesma forma, estudos de Kurtz (2014) demonstram que o cérebro interpreta rituais simbólicos como marcadores concretos de mudança, facilitando a libertação emocional.
E, por fim, Hobson et al. (2018) evidenciam que rituais estruturados reduzem o stress fisiológico e aumentam a estabilidade emocional.
Ou seja, apesar de ser algo aparentemente invisivel, uma limpeza energética/espiritual atua profundamente no campo emocional, ajudando-te a libertar pesos antigos e a abrir espaço para o novo com clareza e leveza.
Por tudo isto, este mês e no mês de Janeiro, as minhas consultas estão com valor especial (sob consulta por e-mail ou WhatsApp).
E se queres partilhar esta transformação com alguém especial, também tenho vales de oferta para limpezas energéticas/espirituais para ofereceres - uma prenda que ilumina e cura.
Se preferires, podes saber mais sobre as consultas em: www.espacoyndigo.com


Feeling the Weight of the Year? Read here how to free yourself and how science explains the benefits ☆
December and January open a powerful cycle of transition and, according to psychology, it is precisely at this stage that renewal rituals have the greatest impact on our minds and emotions.
Studies from Harvard University (Gino & Norton, 2013) show that symbolic rituals reduce anxiety and increase the feeling of emotional control, even when the person does not fully believe in them. Imagine when we do believe, even from our own experience.
Research from the University of Minnesota (Vohs, Wang & Gino, 2013) reinforces that "cycle closure" rituals help the brain organize emotions and create a real sense of new beginnings.
Similarly, studies by Kurtz (2014) demonstrate that the brain interprets symbolic rituals as concrete markers of change, facilitating emotional release.
And finally, Hobson et al. (2018) show that structured rituals reduce physiological stress and increase emotional stability.
In other words, despite being something seemingly invisible, an energetic/spiritual cleansing acts deeply on the emotional field, helping you release old burdens and open space for the new with clarity and lightness.
Becaus of all this, this month and in January, my consultations are at a special price (please inquire by email or WhatsApp).
And if you want to share this transformation with someone special, I also have gift vouchers for energetic/spiritual cleansings to give – a gift that illuminates and heals.
