Catarina Guimaraes - Reiki
|
Catarina is Portuguese and was raised in Macao and Mozambique. Growing up she learnt to deny her intuitive wisdom and reject everything that couldn’t be proved using logic. But life taught her that her path had to go through accepting her feminine energy, acknowledging and opening herself to intuition, sensibility and empathy. Her journey of inner evolution and healing has brought her to this point and now she dedicates herself to holistic energy work.
As a Reiki Therapist she also dedicates herself to energy readings (chakra readings). Catarina has level 3 Reiki and level 2 Karuna certifications with the same Master – João Magalhães (President of the Portuguese Reiki Association) and she also trained and educated in meditation and Reiki for children. She truly feels like this is what she was put here to do she never felt more fulfilled.

Mas a vida ensinou-a que o seu caminho tinha que passar pela aceitação da sua energia feminina, abrindo-se cada vez mais á intuição, á sensibilidade e á empatia. A sua viagem de cura e crescimento interior trouxe-a até aqui e hoje dedica-se ao trabalho energético holístico.
Como Terapeuta de Reiki também se dedica a leituras energéticas (dos chakras).

Daniela Geraldes - Marma Therapy & AyurYoga Massage
|
Curious and passionate about Life
In 2012, in the course of some research into nutrition, she came across Ayurveda, which in Sanskrit means “The Science of Life”. It was love at first sight, since Ayurveda looks at the individual as a unique combination of physical (Vata, Pitta,Kapha), mental (Tamas and Rajas) and emotional characteristics and enables one to understand how to create this balance, not forgetting the daily, seasonal and environmental variations. DaniEla soon became an apprentice of this science of life, starting Dr David Frawley's Ayurveda Healing Course at the American Institute of Vedic Studies in 2015, an Indian Massage course in 2016 and a Body Therapist Ayurveda Training (Abhyanga, Shirodhara, Chavutti Thirumal, Pinda Swedana, Bastis,...) accredited by European Association of Oriental Therapies in 2017. Since then she has already worked in several massage centers and spas. On a trip to India in 2020, in Allepey, Kerala, she explored a traditional approach to Ayurveda and in Pune she completed the Advanced Course in Clinical Experience at the International Academy of Ayurveda and TanMan Ayurvedic Research Center, courses with a conventionally scientific approach. In Rishikesh she had the opportunity to deepen her theoretical and practical knowledge of Yoga, studying Raja, Hatha, Ashtanga, Kundalini traditions with different teachers. Along the way, she sampled Ayurvedic cuisine and experienced different aspects of Hindu culture and ceremonies. She has worked as both a member of staff and a volunteer on projects for minority groups, youngsters with special needs, artisanal sea salt collection, environmental education and nature conservation (sea turtles and botanical gardens). Master in Ecology she understood along this path that Sustainability and Spirituality go hand in hand. Scientist by nature and education it was through Ayurveda and Yoga that she allowed the voice of intuition to express and open up to healing.
