I am Portuguese with African heritage. I consider my self "from the world" and not from one particular piece of land delimited by humans.
I have a strong passion for nature, there I feel the joy and the pain of being alive. This connection allows by blood to flow in different ways allowing new ways of thinking. When I first got in touch with the WTR I found this immense body of wisdom that allows Human beings to notice, to understand and to free themselves from the ideas of separation. A space and time to find deep connection and the power of unconditional love.
Since 2012 I have been facilitating WTR practices in retreats and particularly in the context of a method called Dragon Dreaming- a collaborative project design method heavily inspired in the WTR, Australian aboriginal wisdom and project design tools.
I have taken part in various leaning process within the framework of WTR with facilitators like Lydia Harutooninan, Kathleen Rude, Chris Johnstone amongst others.
Recently, in the context of COVID19, I designed an online one-to-one process called Seeing with New Eyes inspired on the spiral and the wisdom contained in Coming Back to Life and Active Hope.
I look forward to collaborate with other facilitators and midwife the future that wants to emerge.
Why I am called to facilitate the Work
The Earth called me. Its an invitation to partner with her dream and to contribute to a more positive and beautiful presence of humanity on this planet.This work is essential for our times. The transition from an industrial growth society to a society that sustains and promotes life needs gravediggers and midwifes. That why I am called to serve this transition with my heart, body and soul. The WTR is a tools and a set of principles that are aligned with this transition. I trust that my experience as a facilitator can bring new perspectives to the work: my African background will contribute to bring more diversity and inclusion. My decades of experience with other methodologies such as Dragon Dreaming, Sociocracy and Open Space, Jogo Oásis will contribute to enhance the living systems view of the this work.
My passion for the Earth is contribute to inspire people to act meaningfully in service of the Earth community.
