Science and consciousness
in service of your wellbeing.
Understanding the path is not the same as walking it.
We use science to support experience — not to replace it.
Our background in oncological research taught us that health is a complex system where biology and biography are intertwined. We understood that the emotional context is not secondary, but a dimension that must be approached with both rigour and presence. Atma & Dharma was born to restore emotion to its rightful place in the wholeness of being — not as an end in itself, but as a compass that, combined with focus and personal responsibility, enables real and lasting transformation — grounded in the body.

My journey began in the rigour of scientific research. As a PhD in Molecular Biology, I spent over a decade studying cancer, work recognised with the Extraordinary Prize of UAB and international patents. Yet I felt that science alone couldn't account for the full complexity of human suffering.
That search led me to train as a spiritual guide in Eastern traditions (Hinduism and Vajrayana Buddhism) and Western ones (Kabbalah), integrating them with kinesiology, coaching and mind-body medicine. My purpose is to serve as a bridge: using neuroscience to validate ancient practices and make them accessible to the Western world.
I have had the privilege of supporting people through transformation in more than 12 countries, working in environments as diverse as schools, prisons, businesses and holistic centres. In each session, I use tools such as Breathwork, Interoception and Cognitive-Behavioural Contemplation to help people release unconscious patterns and reconnect with who they truly are.
Alongside guided practices, music is a fundamental part of every session. Music, emotion and relaxation work together to help whatever has surfaced reorganise and settle. That something is common and considered normal does not mean it is healthy or right for you. Sometimes it will be; other times, not.
My mission is to inspire you to live with greater honesty and presence, with more compassion and awareness, learning to question the unwritten rules that harm us all — starting with the ones shaping your own life.

For 18 years, my world was oncological research. That time gave me the scientific rigour and structure needed to understand the complexity of the human body, but it also raised an essential question: what role does the emotional context play in health? My experience led me to understand that treating mind and body as separate is an incomplete picture. Emotion is a fundamental dimension that, when met with care and skill, enables genuine, lasting wellbeing.
As a kinesiologist, somatic meditation teacher and certified coach, my approach centres on the body as the place where biography becomes biology. My work is about guiding you out of the mental loop and back into direct experience.
The body speaks before words do. From this understanding, I created 'Deep Listening Spaces', a personal method designed to give voice to what has been silenced, allowing each person to take up their rightful space and be truly seen and heard — starting with rediscovering yourself.
Meditation is not relaxation: it is learning to be with what is, without running from it or pushing through it, taking responsibility for our own transformation.
At Atma & Dharma, I use voice and sound not as an end, but as a bridge: sound opens internal spaces that the rational mind often tries to guard. It is where my scientific background and somatic sensitivity come together, so that you can restore your balance, your presence and the capacity to hold your own process.
