Protect the soils:
soils from which
new life grows
life to sustain us
with its nourishing blooms
till we return to the earth
to begin
another cycle

Protect the waters:
waters of our blood
flowing their wisdom
from the rivers to the sea
and beyond to new lands
reminding us all
of the cleansing power
of the divine storm

Protect the air:
breath of our ancestors
and kiss of the trees
whispering to the breeze
songs of the stars
and the sky where they reside
messages of the heavens
descend from above

Protect the fires:
lights of our Souls
warmed by the Sun
in a radiant dawn
of etheric awakenings
signaling the beginnings
birthed from within
the moment we realize –

We are One.
We are Whole.
We are Love.

Hola, I’m Cara. Formerly a practicing lawyer, I’m now a storyteller, mentor, and holistic health practitioner. Life took me down an unexpected path when I was locked down in Costa Rica at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. This catalyzed me to leave behind my legal practice in London and devote my attention toward my creative projects as well as developing my knowledge in the field of holistic health.

In my early twenties, I suffered from a number of chronic health issues. Those experiences sowed the seeds for my current change of life path. My mission is to inspire and empower others to find their own inner guidance, to live healthier, happier, and more harmonious lives. I am trained in Craniosacral therapy and have been receiving ongoing mentorship from a shaman. I offer mentoring, 1-1 healing sessions (both in person and online), and am also working ceremonially with cacao as a plant medicine.
