ABOUT ME

My human existence was inaugurated with the question of legitimacy. Conceived as the third child of a poverty-stricken family amid fleeing from political dictatorship, my arrival was more burden than joy. The contrast with privileged Switzerland was repeatedly brought to my attention as a refugee child. I encountered much rejection and racism, retreating into subtle worlds in my childhood. This wonderful access proved to be a gift and remained with me forever.

When my mother returned to Chile, life held me in suspension. Consequently, as a teenager, I became adventurous in exploring psychedelic realms until I was poisoned through an assault. Metaphysical levels of consciousness were abruptly exposed, and I was mercilessly forced to learn to navigate these elusive worlds.

At 24, my first son was born, and I experienced what it means to stand alone as a woman with a child in this society. I longed for community and belonging, for the place where we are all equal, and wondered where I came from and where I was going. It was only through accompanying my father's death that my burning search for my roots awakened. For the first time, I consciously embarked on the search for my South American (Mapuche) and European (Basque) ancestors and realized that they indeed sing in our souls and act through us.

Significantly, the two shamanic medicine women who were to teach me appeared in precisely these two regions of my ancestors. Here, I rediscovered and learned to apply the knowledge of my ancestors stored within me. They spoke directly to me, connected me with the knowledge of the Earth, and instructed me in the medicine I am to carry.

While it was women who trained me in healing wisdom, it was my male ancestors who showed me the inner paths. Since my spiritual unfolding was always intertwined with everyday life, I recognize the teachers on my path not only in encounters with various spiritual disciplines but also in my surroundings: in my three sons, in nature, animals, in various everyday encounters and relationships - and I honor them all.

Even world events are my teacher and reveal on a collective level what is no longer viable in our world and that we as humanity can take a new path: namely, that of a community, which is what we truly are.

THE WORK

Every human being possesses the birthright to love, a sense of safety, freedom, and connection to their inherent power. When these protective fields were shaken by traumatic experiences, unconscious core-beliefs, fragmentation, and disruptive information in the energy field arise, keeping this weakened and limiting reality alive.

As a medicine woman, I deal with the energetic information stored in your being's field and start from there to allow your original essence to gain new vitality. With an ear for the messages from the subtle world, I support you with the means that your soul communicates as effective to restore your right of existence.

I see it as central in the healing journey of every being to truly be heard, recognized, nurtured, and celebrated in their intact innocence. Thus, I support people in their heart healing during losses, meaninglessness, and life crises; accompany death and birth processes as well as transformative changes in consciousness.

My special attention is devoted to female womb healing (menstruation, pain, abuse, fertility, pregnancy, abortions, childbirth, motherhood, menopause, etc.) and also in guiding men into their original, heart-centered masculinity.

As a medicine woman with access to collective and cosmological fields, it is also my desire to accompany people in their own internal decolonization - so that we as humanity can free ourselves from outdated programs and rediscover and live what it means to be human and guardians of our planet.
