On this page, you will find my training and education that now inform my offerings and services. I am a student who is still studying and learning. With this said, despite being a student, I believe that with the heart and intentions that I have, the spiritual work I offer can still support you on your healing and spiritual journey.

The list below is not a full representation of my capabilities, but I believe in sharing my schooling as transparency.

Curanderismo

My family's ancestry comes from the Sonoran Desert, Mexico as well as the Yucatán peninsula.

Curanderismo is an ancestral, traditional system of healing that is called the three headed serpent: an eclectic practice comprised of Spanish, African, and Meso-American Indigenous practices. Curanderismo is a spiritual practice that encompasses herbalism, astral journeying, limpias/spiritual cleansing ceremonies, bodywork, and so much more. Curanderismo is one of the ways that I incorporate my ancestral roots into the work that I do.

Curanderismo is a life-long path that I am excited to embark on. As of now, I am a student learning under the mentorship of Curandera Erika Buenaflor. Curandera Erika Buenaflor has a number of books that teaches common curanderismo practices and history that I highly suggest reading to begin your journey of self-healing with the Earth. You can find out more about my teacher by visiting her website here: https://www.realizeyourbliss.com/

Herbalism

My grandmothers from both my maternal and paternal lineage always kept their gardens beautiful and alive. I have many memories of my family taking care of my stomach pains and empacho with the help of yerba buena y manzanilla (spearmint and chamomile).

I began walking the green path more intensively when I realized that my health needed herbal allies and support. And now, I am happy to create remedies and medicines that can support you on your own journey too!

I am rooting my herbal studies with Traditional Mexican Medicine as well as with Western Herbalism and Vitalism.

Sobadas and Healing Touch

I am still very new to this work and do not offer this to the public, yet. But I would like to share that my maternal grandmother was a Curandera and Sobadora for the children of her pueblo near Tecate. She tended to my empachos with many sobadas and herbal oils as I grew up in her household. I have recently felt the calling to finally step into this inheritance and my family's don.

I am now learning with two indigenous, Maya maestras from Chumbec, Yucatán: Nana Rafita and her daughter, Maestra Mary. Additionally, I am continuing my studies with Maestra Metztli here in San Diego, CA.

It is in my plans to offer sobadas in a few years once my teachers tell me I am ready.
