Ceremonia Retreat

Jaymilli Borges

I am an astrologer and shamanic soul reader. I love to bring joy, unity, and light even in the darkest places. I love to work with humans, I love to help people to understand themselves and come back to their essence. I like finding new ways for us humans to heal, to be better, bring consciousness and understand ourselves, I discover, sometimes the best medicine that a person can have is someone that just listens to them. We all have magic and wisdom, and for that, we must look deep into ourselves to recognize it. I believe that we are all here trying to be better for future generations. My purpose is to be a channel of wisdom, connection, inspiration, and guidance. We all have medicine to share with the world.

Fernando Samalot

Fernando Samalot is a Latino photographer, healing artist, and writer, born and raised in Puerto Rico. He is one of the island's most renowned photographers - with a social media following of almost 100,000 across all platforms. In his first years as a photographer, his work was focused on Puerto Rican nature, often showcasing the hidden beauty of the island that even most Puerto Ricans were unaware of. He believed that by showing his people the true beauty of their land, he could inspire an appreciation and love that would lead them to connect with their roots and the beauty inside them. Over the years, and as his work evolved to include portrait photography, this message of self-love and connection deepened, and his focus went inward, into personal and spiritual development. Fernando considers himself more than anything a “Healing Artist,” using art (music, poetry, photography) as a medium for transformation and healing.

Fernando’s work was featured in a short documentary for Jonnie Walker’s series called ‘Keep Walking.’ Also, he was featured in the 2018 documentary SOW, about life in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. His art has been featured on some of the island’s most circulating newspapers and magazines as well as international blogs such as Lonely Planet. His work explores the intersection of healing, poetry, and photography - discussing themes related to detachment, love, nature, connection, healing, spirituality, forgiveness, relationships.

He currently resides in Puerto Rico with his wife Christine Gutierrez and their dog Bodhi, with baby girl Mar de Luz on the way! For more on Fernando's Samalot's work head to www.instagram.com/fernandosamalot

All her classes, retreats, and workshops have a very spiritual approach, with a mix of shamanism and Hinduism. Although, her vinyasa flow classes are also very alignment and anatomy-based. She believes a safe and aligned practice is the foundation for everything else. Get ready to sweat, release, and be empowered with any of her offerings. She’s also the owner of Kali Durga Training School which offers transformational 200hr teacher training.  She lives in San Juan Puerto Rico with her son Ezra and partner.
