༄ Why did my soul chose to be here?

What can I contribute to the world in this point of time? In a world in which fear causes more and more separation and confusion? That's the question I asked myself two years ago. During a deep meditation I saw myself being part of a circle of people: moving, singing, laughing. Then I knew. This was my soul purpose. My mind asked me if it made any sense. My heart told me it made more than sense. By sharing music, movement and sounds with you I invite you to take place in the circle. A circle in which we are not afraid to dream. A circle in which we dare to connect with ourselves and others. A circle in which we observe and release our thoughts and emotions. A circle in which we express who we are and what we are made of: Love & Light.

Lately I’ve been arriving at a new layer of ownership
ownership of my patterns,
my triggers,
my quirkiness,
my sensitivity,
and the way I move through the world.

There’s something powerful about finally meeting the parts of myself
that were stored so deeply in my body
that I wasn’t fully aware of them.

And in this ownership,
I can feel the old victim role dissolving
through clarity,
compassion, and
embodiment.

When the victim dissolves,
strength softens.
Peace expands.
Calm becomes accessible.

I feel more rooted in my body,
more honest with myself,
more capable of holding space
for me, and
for others.

This season feels like an invitation
to sit with ourselves more gently,
to breathe deeper,
to listen inward,
and to remember the calm that exists beneath the noise.

I’ve been dancing in the dark.
I’ve been dancing with darkness.

This dance has pushed me over edges
I didn’t know existed.
It has challenged
my balance,
stripped away control,
and forced me to face
what’s underneath the harness
the raw,
unfiltered,
vulnerable me.

It’s been a dance that mirrors
my own shadows,
showing me
where I’ve adapted,
where I’ve hidden,
where I’ve moved out of fear.

But somewhere in the midst of it
through the pain and the barefoot steps
I found a new rhythm.
One that rises
from self-awareness
and radical acceptance.

I realized the dance feels most powerful when I initiate it.
When I stop reacting to darkness
and start moving with it
from love,
not fear.

That’s when the darkness stops being something to fear
and becomes a partner.
A teacher.
That’s when I can truly choose:
to stay in the dance… or to step out, gracefully.

We all encounter blocks,
patterns that hold energy in place within our body, emotions, or mind.
They often arise from conditioning, trauma, or limiting beliefs that once helped us feel safe.

When we have the courage to meet these blocks, to listen instead of resist, we begin to free up self-energy,
the natural flow of calm, balance, and worthiness within 🌿

✨ Self-energy is an open, grounded state where we can choose instead of react,
create instead of control, and soothe instead of suppress.
From this space, life feels lighter. We return to the seat of the Self peaceful, confident, whole.

And this journey takes more than courage,
it takes patience, compassion, tenderness, and consistency. There’s no quick fix, only the slow unfolding of awareness.
It begins with acceptance, and continues with gentle, conscious action, again and again.

🌸 Reflection:
What helps you reconnect to your self-energy each day?
For me it’s…
voice & sound · breath & toning · somatic movement · time in nature · release through rhythm

Sometimes, the most beautiful things in life aren’t planned
they unfold through the ripples of joy we dare to follow.

Hosting and performing these past months at places like Zephyr Playa, during cacao ceremonies, and spontaneously at Boogie & Brunch ~ I felt how one spark of excitement can ripple through hearts, inspire connection, and invite others to create their own magic.

This is what SOMA SOL was born from: a ripple of joy, music, embodiment, and community.
A space to move, feel, connect, and celebrate life itself.

✨ SOMA SOL – Friday, November 15 | Silves
A barefoot gathering of cacao, voice, dance & shared presence.

🎟️ Early bird tickets (€20) available until October 27 → [link in bio]
All ages • All genders • All hearts welcome 💛

There’s a softness that comes with allowing
to give, to receive, to be moved without needing to understand why.

The Gayatri mantra was the first mantra I ever sang.
At one point it brought me to tears,
without me knowing what it touched
as if the vibration pierced through a shield I didn’t even know I had 🗡️

I sang it again recently in a chapel
and someone told me that listening felt like traveling to another world.
Another said she was brought to tears, deeply moved.
That’s the beauty of energy when it’s embodied
it transmits without effort, it’s felt.

We don’t have to know the outcome or the reason.
When we allow ourselves to be present, to feel,
everything that stands between us and connection gently dissolves.

🎵 Gayatri Mantra
Om Bhur Bhuvah Swaha
Tat Savitur Varenyam
Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat

Blessings ✨🌿
pt Thank you for the invitation. I’ve been wanting to sing in this chapel for a while now ✨🙏🏽✨

We often talk about letting go
of control, fear, or what no longer serves.
What if we invite ourselves to explore something softer… allowing.

✨Do I allow myself to feel, to really feel the seed of my emotions?
✨To speak my truth and let my voice be heard?
✨To be autonomous, honoring my need for freedom and solitude?
✨To be soft, feminine, receptive creating space for the masculine to meet me?
✨To rest when my body asks for stillness, and move when it calls for flow?
✨To express grief, to face my shadows, to evolve with each season of my being?

🔥And… do I allow myself to celebrate the small steps,
those subtle moments of coming closer to my truth,
of choosing myself again and again?

Because every time I allow, I naturally let go.
No force. No push. Just permission.
A gentle remembering that growth doesn’t need to be hard.
It can be a soft return to who you already are 🤍

💫 What do you allow yourself to feel and experience?

On this path, my body keeps inviting me to listen more deeply. To sense what moves inside: sensations, emotions, energy, spirit 🌀

Because we are not just brains on legs. We are embodied essence. Expressions of the divine. Complex, unique, genius beings. ✨

The more we cultivate inner sensitivity, the fuller life becomes. The connection with ourselves and others grows richer. And even when we freeze, harden, or fall back on defenses, life offers invitations to soften, to remember what we truly are.

Every photo and video in this carousel carries a glimpse of that journey. And I feel deep gratitude for retreat organizers like and who trust us to offer sound journeys that help people travel inward.

It is courageous and beautiful to open a space, to meet people where they are, even when the mind wants to stay in control. Thank you for that trust. 🙏🏽✨💖

If these words resonate, share them, save them, or tag a friend who’s ready to feel more deeply. 🌿

Every first Tuesday of the month, something special unfolds here in Vale Fuzeiros. 🌿✨

The catalyst is an 80-year-old community member who only recently discovered the magic of mantras. He shared how the vibration of singing keeps him young, energised, and deeply touched in his heart. From his wish, a circle has blossomed,
with the support of our local community.

For me, mantra singing is like sound alchemy. Words repeated like a spell, carrying us beyond thought. They lift our energy, open our hearts, and remind us of the simple joy of raising our voices together. It is devotion, connection, and resonance, within ourselves and with each other.

If you feel the call, you are warmly welcome to join us. Our circle is open to all. Send me a DM and I’ll share the details for the next gathering. 🫶🏽

“Every session is different,” shared who has joined our sound journey many times. Even with the same practice, the energy shifts, new dynamics, new chemistry, always new,
always alive.

Isn’t that life itself? 🌿 Nothing ever stays the same. everything moves.

Challenges and invitations return, not to punish us, but to remind us to stay open.

In my personal life right now, my main theme is letting go and allowing: surrendering to impermanence, understanding that nothing ever stays the same. Nature, relationships, life, death… all flow in cycles. This movement invites us to detach, to accept,
to forgive, to be deeply present.

✨ Where in your life are you resisting impermanence and what would happen if you allowed it?

✨ How does the cycle you’re moving through invite you to know yourself more deeply?
