I AM AN ALCHEMIST.

​

Healing is a service of love to guide you back to a balanced relationship with self in order to find your true radiance.

My name is Krystal and I am of Mexican and Nicaraguan decent, and with much gratitude and humility, I am following my calling to lead and heal my people with ancestral medicinas (hierbas, flores, plantitas, y otras medicinas indígenas like Kambo y Sapito). Customized treatment plans to help guide you to your beautiful place and safe container.

I have dedicated my life to following my calling to learn my ancestor's ways of healing and (re)discovering the magical world we live in and the magic that we are. I pride myself in making you feel lighter and more like your true self through unconventional, therapeutic modalities that work to move stagnant energies, shit you carry with you, that can cause physical and mental illness and blocks in your life. So long as you are putting in the love and committed to doing the work; love and healing are your reward. I want you to see the beauty that the people who love you see, the Creator in you. I have lived through trauma, anxiety, self-consciousness, and low self-esteem much of my life and am now truly existing and living my life with love, desire, and purpose. Always continuing my healing through meditation and rituals that remind me of the Creator that I am. I do not wish to save you from your trauma and pain, I want to lead you straight to it so that you can walk through it and heal through it! It's time to bring that shit up so that you can own it and use it as your catalyst and be a light in this world, never forgetting that our darkness is where we are created, like in the womb. Without darkness, there is no contrast for the light. embrace both with balance.

I am always learning and following my heart. I am currently studying to become a partera (a traditional, Mexican midwife) and I am also mentoring with other indigenous medicines. Healing never ends. One of my more tangible dreams is to open an after-school program that specializes in teaching children from underserved communities life skills such as entrepreneurship, money management, investing, the stock market, and most importantly, healing.

I look forward to guiding You back to You.

 

Amor, Abrazos, y Bendiciones,

​

THE SIGN, THE SYNCHRONICITY

​

Womb healing is the reconnecting to our feminine spirit and the restoration of our womb power. We carry traumas from sex, abuse, neglect, birth & loss, and even passed down trauma from our ancestors...our Mothers! suppressed childhood traumas that we have long forgotten are carried with us and that inner child needs to know they are not at fault and they are seen, heard, and loved.

Much of our traumas may start to surface in our 30s, this is a calling and awakening to heal and find our purpose. It is up to you whether you suppress the call and continue to live passively and carnally, or you do the work to live in purpose, spiritually.


The healing doesn't come from the medicine or the healer, these spirits guide you and simply hold the space for you to sit with your traumas, face them, and go through them with the mindfulness to feel them, accept them, choose them, and alchemize them. The challenges and traumas we face are the opportunities for growth in our lives and feeling the growing pains is a beautiful part of the process. 
Without darkness there is no light, there must be contrast.
The medicines guide us to navigate through the darkness, to surrender to facing our fears, and to own our innate power, from deep in our wombs. The shadows are familiar and empowering. Our work is never done there. There will be more challenges and more to heal, it is a part of our human experience, our chosen path, and our calling to return to our connection with Creator and Mother Earth. It's not easy work, especially accepting or forgiving ourselves when we often carry so much shame and guilt. We have to remember it all before we can accept it. Harboring and ignoring our traumas shows up as tension, pain, dis-ease, depression, anger, and more in our lives. Reliving the experiences that we carry in our bodies in a healing and mindful space allows us to free ourselves from the weight on our mind, body, and spirit so that we can love ourselves and be light and love for others.
It's not your fault and you are not the same person you were yesterday. You also don't have to share your shadows with anyone to forgive yourself, but sometimes it helps to say it out loud, to acknowledge that it is real before releasing it. Often the hardest part is thinking or saying it because we've tried so hard to bury it in the darkest and farthest part of our memory, but the body always remembers, even when the mind doesn't. Your ego protects you by shielding you from it until you are in a space where you can finally resolve it, and if you are reading this, that time is now! Hermana, hermano, I am here to guide you to your power to heal yourself. 
Your ceremony begins when you accept the calling. Integration keeps your life in ceremony and is how you bring your experience into your everyday life so that you remain mindful and conscious of the higher self you are living for. The medicine is useless if you leave the ceremony and expect that the changes are made and done. You must dedicate your life to the changes and commit to the work, whatever it is. You have to pray and listen to Spirit for the guidance. Trust the process, and follow your intuition. It all sounds so vague, but surrender to your power, it is with you and always has been. Sometimes we must start with the more earthly things like changing what we feed our body and spirit (food, television, conversations, thoughts, books, people, etc.). I am here to help guide you and push you when you need it.
You are enough, you are worthy, and you are right on time. Don't compare yourself to anyone else and remember that healing isn't a linear process. The process looks different for each of us and there will be setbacks, but there will be triumphs! It's time to tell your story, and sing your song!

Heal for yourself, your seeds, your ancestors.
