Dreaming With The Hive (TESTIMONIAL)

Hello Brave Souls!

Capturing the essence of my transformative journey with Stella Porta's "Dreaming With The Hive" program is a challenge, yet I hope to convey the profound impact it had on both my personal life and creative realms.

Participating in dream-weaving sessions with a small circle of women has profoundly enriched my waking life and creative expression in a remarkably short period. This experience has been one of deep exploration and empowerment. Stella's insightful guidance on seamlessly integrating the wisdom of our nighttime dreams with our daytime realities has been a pivotal aspect of my transformation. This harmonious blend has not only simplified navigating life's complexities but has also significantly nurtured my heart and fueled my multimedia artistic endeavors.

Through Stella's teachings, and the reflections of my fellow dreamers, I embarked on a path of empowerment, learning more deeply to awaken my creative potential and that of others. Stella's unique approach to weaving dreams into reality has opened my eyes to new ways of contributing to and elevating human consciousness and well-being. An inner-standing, or heightened ability I call, “Visionality”.

The practices of Recalling, Weaving, Mirroring, and Returning to Wholeness, have magically created the sense of being rooted and grounded. I now take action in my waking life more confidently and creatively. These practices, along with exploring the meaning behind symbols, connecting to the wisdom of ancestors, and weaving a tapestry of meaning, sparked a shift in my perception of life. Stella provided the portal that allowed me to tap into a wellspring of insight and inspiration.

Stella’s program introduces a variety of impactful practices, but the one that continues to resonate profoundly with me is the art of weaving and mirroring.

My journaling practice has now become a blend of weaving daydreams with nightdreams, a cornerstone of my personal growth journey, thanks to Stella and her Honeywomb programs. Initially, I had strayed from the practice of recording my dreams and reflections, but “Dreaming With The Hive” rekindled my passion for capturing the ephemeral threads of my subconscious and interlacing them with the fabric of my waking life.

During the program, while my dream recall may not have been as vivid, the act of journaling about the threads or pieces, unveiled its profound influence on my daily existence. The ritual of inviting the wisdom of the bees, the hive, the Melissae, the womb of the world, into my dreams became a nightly beacon of guidance, healing, and empowerment. Despite not always remembering my dreams upon waking, the practice of sensory recapitulation unlocked a realm of magic and insight.

Although my dreaming mostly feels like being in a dark space and gestating in a womb, through this process, I discovered the potent symbolism of dwelling in darkness. This space, though seemingly void, brims with messages of creation, renewal, and the essence of life. Now living in Portugal for 7 months, on my ancestors’ land, drinking fresh mountain spring water, my dreams have revealed a profound connection to the Earth and its cycles, embodying the nurturing spirit of Mother Nature herself.

This journey of dreaming with the hive has signified a period of personal gestation, where new ideas, projects, and facets of my being are incubating, ready to emerge into the light. It symbolizes a rebirth and a yearning for a fresh start, encouraging me to embrace the mysteries of creation, honor the healing process of transformation, and anticipate the new paths that await.

Each night, the darkness of the womb has beckoned me to introspect and engage in deep inner work, preparing me for the unveiling of new aspects of myself. It has also reminded me of my universal connection, reinforcing my sense of belonging within the vast tapestry of existence and the interconnectedness of all life.

In embracing journaling and the weaving of daydreams with nightdreams, I've found a powerful tool for navigating the complexities of life, nurturing personal development, enhancing creative endeavors, and aiding in the restoration of well-being throughout the world.

I am immensely grateful for the journey Stella has guided me on, and I wholeheartedly recommend her Honeywomb programs to anyone seeking to explore the depths of their dreams and the heights of their creative potential.

Vocal Odyssey (TESTIMONIAL)

HeartLight - digital art by Marta Reis

Hello Brave Souls!

Today, my heart overflows with gratitude for the incredible teachers and mentors who have guided me through the journey of transforming emotional wounds into profound blessings.

Among these guiding lights, a few have left an indelible mark on my soul. One such encounter was serendipitously sparked by a social media post that felt like destiny calling. The moment Nessi Gomes' voice graced my ears, it was as if an ancient sage was singing directly to me, her melodies weaving spells of healing and understanding. Compelled by this enchanting experience, I found myself enrolling in her Vocal Odyssey program in 2023, a decision that marked the beginning of a transformative journey.

This testimonial transcends mere words of praise for Nessi Gomes' Vocal Odyssey; it is a heartfelt homage to my beloved sister, Ana, whose sudden departure from this world five years ago left a void in my heart. Embracing the healing embrace of Vocal Odyssey for the second time on what would have been Ana's 56th birthday, April 6, 2024, became a powerful tribute to her memory and a testament to the program's profound impact on my life.

Upon concluding the program for a second time, I penned some reflections that held a special place in my heart. Imagine my astonishment and delight when Nessi chose to incorporate an image I had crafted—a digital creation inspired by a photograph of mine intertwined with a silk-weave mandala I designed—into her program. To see my artwork accompanying her "thank you" note was an honor beyond words. Truly, it was the pinnacle of my year, a moment of unexpected recognition that filled me with immense pride and joy. (It healed a broken heart.)

In pursuit of deepening the enchanting magic and transformative healing that Vocal Odyssey offers, I have joyfully enrolled in Nessi's program, set to take place on the 22nd and 23rd of February 2025. This decision reflects my ongoing commitment to honor the profound impact her work has had on my journey, eagerly anticipating another chapter of growth and discovery.

In the initial program of 2023, I shared these words with Nessi and my fellow participants, expressing the deep impact I felt just after the workshop's first day:

Testimonial | April 7, 2024

Today's Vocal Odyssey workshop, with the ever-inspiring @nessigomesmusic, sparked within me a profound realization and an urgent need to share. The emotions swirling inside are both a tribute and a call to action — for my sister, whose voice may have vanished into the silence but whose vibrant spirit continues to illuminate my life. 🌟

In the heart of every creation, there exists a central belief that every individual possesses an unfathomable depth of potential just waiting to be unleashed. Today's experience reinforced this belief, transforming it from mere words into a palpable truth. It’s about seeing beyond the immediate, diving deep into the transformative power of artistic expression, and embracing the raw, unfiltered essence of the soul.

As an ode to her unwavering spirit, I delve into a powerful truth that today's session brought to light: The undeniable power of a single voice or, in its absence, the profound impact of its echo. My sister's laughter, ideas, and dreams continue to resonate, proving that even without a spoken word, one's presence can inspire change and spark creativity.

Thank you,  @nessigomesmusic@emma_zeck and @maryastark 🌹

Embark on a Journey of Self-Discovery and Wholeness

Time Capsule Unlocking - digital art by Marta Reis

Hello Brave Souls!

Before my transformative Quantum Hypnosis & Living Akash Journey Session last month, a decade-long dream haunted me, weaving themes of death, burial, rebirth, and time travel into the fabric of my existence. This dream, vivid and compelling during visits to my ancestral home in Portugal, left me pondering its deep connection to my life and purpose.

Guided by intuition and a yearning for understanding, I took a leap of faith and booked a session with a skilled teacher, Shane from the EarthStar Academy. What unfolded was a journey beyond my wildest dreams. Lying on the floor of my new, sparse home in Portugal, Shane's voice became the beacon that guided me through the mists of time and space, leading me to the missing piece of my fragmented soul.

This session was not just a meeting; it was a profound awakening. Shane's intuitive guidance allowed me to navigate layers of consciousness, uncovering insights and healing I never thought possible. The experience was transformative, illuminating paths of ancient wisdom that resonated deeply within my spirit.

In the weeks that followed, I embarked on a journey of integration, embodying the lessons and insights gained. The sensation of living from a whole soul, rather than fragments of a constructed personality, has been profound and continues to unravel in my present reality.

The synchronicity of discovering a song titled "The Missing Piece" immediately after the session was a testament to the power of following my intuition and the guidance provided by Shane. This journey of self-discovery and healing in the ancient land of Portugal has only just begun, and I am filled with excitement for the mystery and adventure that lies ahead.

Thank you, Shane, for being an incredible guide on this journey of becoming whole. Your remarkable gifts for facilitating deep, transformative experiences have changed my life in ways I am only beginning to comprehend. Be blessed always.

For anyone standing at the crossroads of their own journey, remember: the path to self-discovery, healing, and creativity is within reach. Let your intuition guide you, and be open to the transformative experiences that await.
