Hi! I’m Sonia,

I started developing my own natural and organic products and foods years ago because of skin and health issues. Like many people, I was comforted by nature and the support of many people.

 

This experience inspired me to enter into the holistic wellness space and to spend the rest of my life educating and supporting my community in any way I could. For the past years, I have dedicated my life to learning, experiencing, observing, and teaching.

​

I focus on creating awareness about the importance of personal and environmental care, especially digestion, nutrition, movement, emotional health, and reconnection with nature as the main pillars of a healthy life. One of my main passions is to teach people how to create their own medicines and find alternative and creative ways to heal.
