Hello, I am Gabriela - Welcome to my story.
My life’s work is devoted to creating meaningful experiences and practical tools that support inner freedom, self-connection, and a more vibrant, purposeful life. Through mindfulness, Qigong, meditation, sound, and compassionate guidance, I invite individuals, groups, and communities to pause, reconnect with their innate wisdom, and cultivate greater clarity, joy, and presence.
I believe that when we feel grounded in our bodies, connected to our hearts, and aligned with what matters most, we can meet life with greater confidence, creativity, and authenticity. My intention is to create welcoming spaces where people can restore, reflect, and reconnect with the brilliance already within them.
My background brings together the study of art, religion, integral psychology, communication, and holistic well-being. I hold studies in Art and Religions. I completed my Life Coaching certification in Mexico City in 2014 and was licensed as a psychotherapist in Mexico City in 2015. I am also a certified Gong Master, Spring Forest Qigong Healer, and Spring Forest Qigong Group Leader.
Today, I offer non-clinical mindfulness, life-coaching, Qigong, meditation, and sound-based wellness experiences in English and Spanish. My daily practice of Qigong, mindfulness, sound meditation, and Human and Universal Energy alignment continues to inform the grounded, heartfelt work I share.
Here is my story…
Personal Mission and Evolution
My path has taught me that meaningful change begins when we are met with presence, compassion, and the space to listen deeply to ourselves. Every private session I offer is shaped by years of study, personal transformation, and a lifelong devotion to helping people reconnect with their inner strength, clarity, and joy.
-
Growing up in Mexico City as the seventh child in a loving family, I was surrounded by the richness of culture, history, tradition, gastronomy, music, art, and philosophy. My father instilled in me a lasting reverence for beauty, love to life, and the many ways human beings make meaning of life.
At the same time, I became aware of painful patterns that can exist within families and society, particularly those affecting the most vulnerable ones: women and children. These early experiences awakened in me a deep sensitivity to human dignity, compassion, and the possibility of creating more conscious, caring communities.
-
My own marriage brought me face-to-face with some of these challenges. As I navigated a difficult period in my life, I became deeply committed to protecting my children, honoring my own voice, and finding a path toward greater freedom and well-being.
That journey expanded my empathy for those who have felt unseen, diminished, or disconnected from their own strength. It also became the beginning of my lifelong dedication to creating spaces where people can reconnect with their worth, wisdom, and capacity to choose a new direction.
-
After many years of struggle, I made the conscious decision to leave my marriage. My divorce became a profound turning point—an invitation to understand the patterns that shape our lives and to explore how family, culture, religion, and social expectations can influence the way we see ourselves and our possibilities.
This experience strengthened my commitment to living with awareness, courage, and compassion. It also taught me that change is possible when we are willing to listen deeply and take one honest step at a time.
-
Through ongoing study, reflection, meditation, and personal integration, I began to understand that lasting change often begins beneath the surface—in the beliefs, emotions, and patterns that quietly shape our choices.
My path led me through postgraduate study, new perspectives, and dedicated contemplative practice. These experiences continue to inform the work I offer today: practical and soulful tools that support self-awareness, inner steadiness, and a more harmonious relationship with oneself and life.
-
Inspired to bring well-being tools to a wider audience, I created Un Minuto para Ti (“A Minute for You”), a public-awareness campaign shared through television, radio, and print media. The project invited people to pause, reflect, and take greater personal responsibility for their well-being.
This work opened the door to nearly two decades of national television programs in Mexico, where I had the privilege of educating and inspiring audiences around themes of health, self-awareness, relationships, and personal growth. You can view a selection of this work through my national television programs.
-
In 2008, I published my book, Un Minuto para Ti, extending this message of reflection and everyday well-being to more people.
In 2011, I collaborated with Mexico’s Federal Ministry of Health, directing the “Health Ambassadors in Social Media” strategy and contributing to projects supporting healthy family dynamics and children’s well-being. During this period, I also worked with the Carlos Slim Foundation, offering workshops and conferences focused on healthy living and well-being.
These experiences affirmed my belief that meaningful change is both personal and collective: it begins within each person and expands through families, workplaces, and communities.
-
A deeper transformation unfolded with the passing of my beloved sister, and later through meeting Marian, who became my partner from 2014 to 2025, during a Gong Master certification with the legendary Don Conreaux.
During this chapter of life in Chicago, I deepened my relationship with meditation, Qigong, sound, and mindful presence. I also created Mindfulness for You, a 30-session program offered in English and Spanish, supporting diverse groups in cultivating greater calm, self-awareness, and well-being.
-
During the COVID-19 pandemic, I began offering free weekly live sessions to support people seeking grounding, connection, and practices for navigating stress and uncertainty.
That work inspired the development of online courses that bring meditation, mindfulness, Qigong, and sound-based practices into people’s homes. The programs later expanded to serve organizations in the United States and Mexico City, offering employees accessible practices that support presence, resilience, and everyday well-being.
-
Now, in this new chapter of my life in California, I offer private, bilingual wellness experiences for those seeking a more grounded, connected, and vibrant way of living.
My work brings together mindfulness, life coaching, Qigong, meditation, gong and sound-bath experiences, and compassionate, personalized guidance. Whether we meet in your home, online, or within a group setting, my intention is to offer a peaceful, attentive space in which you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, and move forward with greater clarity and purpose.
If this resonates with your heart, I warmly invite you to explore a private session with me. Together, we can create a moment of deep listening, renewal, and reconnection—with yourself, your life, and what matters most.

Collaborative Work With DG Counseling
For nine years, I collaborated with DG Counseling Inc., offering bilingual, in-person support to adults, teenagers, groups, and Hispanic communities.
During this time, I developed and shared an integrative approach that brought together mindfulness, life-coaching practices, sound-based experiences, and compassionate, individualized guidance. It was a meaningful chapter in which I witnessed many people reconnect with greater clarity, self-worth, inner calm, and a renewed sense of possibility.

Books & Mindfulness Programs
Published Author
In 2009 I published my book Un Minuto para Ti, an invitation to pause, reflect, and bring greater awareness and intention to everyday life.
The book reflects a principle that continues to guide my work: meaningful change often begins in a single moment of presence—a moment in which we choose to listen to ourselves with honesty, compassion, and care.
Collaborations
Later I created Mindfulness for You , a 30-session guided program available in English and Spanish. It brings together mindfulness, meditation, sound, and reflective practices to support a more grounded and intentional daily life.
The program was created for people who want accessible, consistent practices they can return to at home, wherever they are on their path.
Cultural Roots and Living Traditions
Mexico’s cultural and spiritual heritage has been an important source of inspiration throughout my personal and professional path. Through meditation, ceremony, and time spent in places of deep historical and cultural significance—including Teotihuacan and Xihuingo—I have had the privilege of learning alongside elders and teachers from diverse Indigenous and ancestral traditions.
These experiences have deepened my reverence for the natural world, the rhythms of life, mindful community, and the importance of living in relationship with ourselves, one another, and the Earth. They continue to inspire the grounded, respectful presence I bring to meditation, Qigong, sound, and personal reflection.
Teotihuacan is a major pre-Hispanic city northeast of Mexico City, recognized by UNESCO for its monumental architecture and cultural significance. Xihuingo is an ancient settlement with historical connections to the Teotihuacan region
A Conversation With My Teacher
This video features a conversation with my Toltec medicine teacher, Ricardo Cervantes—Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli, known with affection as “Abuelo Gorilla”—following several days of teachings, reflection, and ceremonial practice in Teotihuacan and other meaningful places in Mexico.
It is an invitation to pause, remember our relationship with the living world, and return to the quiet wisdom within.
I Look Forward to Working With You
Today, through my independent practice, I offer private sessions, group experiences, and virtual wellness sessions in English and Spanish.
My current offerings include mindfulness, meditation, Qigong, life coaching, gong and sound-bath experiences, and personalized wellness guidance. Whether you are seeking a quiet space to pause and reconnect, an immersive sound experience in the comfort of your home, or a meaningful wellness offering for a group or organization, I would be honored to support you.
If you are ready to create space for greater calm, clarity, and self-connection, I warmly invite you to take the next step.
