What is Mindfulness  ? 
Mindfulness is a life skill which can help reconnect with ourselves and deepen our sense of well-being and fulfillment. It creates the conditions for a calm and present mind and helps cultivate self-acceptance and compassion. With mindfulness we learn how to be caring to ourselves, sensitive to our distress, tolerant of our feelings, understanding and non-judgmental.
Thousands of research studies have proven that mindfulness can build focus and awareness, improves memory and quality of sleep, thereby boosts the immune system and reduces the feeling of loneliness, stress and anxiety.

DAYAMI BARRIENTOS 
Qualified Healer and Medium 
Originally from Cuba,  but living in the UK for the past 30 years. Is a Holistic Healer, Reader and Teacher. As well as having a passion for crystals and their uses, Dayami  is equally passionate about other spiritual practices like Meditation, Qi Gong,
Healing, Vegetarism /Vegan food, etc..She is a qualified Healer and Medium and runs development circles.

Her interest for the world of crystals and all of the above practices started 20 years ago. One day  she bought a magazine that had an article talking about different crystals and their benefits. After that she started studying as much as she could about crystals and buying them for her own personal use or sometimes she used them in her healing sessions, depending if the person needs a specific crystal to align and balance a Chakra in their body, which is an energy centre in the body.

Dayami says: " aim always to help others so they can help themselves by sharing her knowledge and experience about different practices and tools available out there that one can be use in our everyday life for our general well being, to keep and restore a balance between the mind, body and soul.

After all we must remember we are spiritual beings living a human experience"

CECILIA AMADOR 
Cecilia is an Ecuadorian Entrepreneur that discovered the daily use of medicinal plants for skin care in her culture and used it in her lifestyle.  For many years, Cecilia was unhappy with the creams offered by the beauty industry which were full of chemicals.

In February 2019, Cecilia attended a Women Entrepreneurs event where she found her desire and passion.​​
She studied natural cosmetology to create organic skin care products, after obtaining her qualification Cecilia launched SC beauty by nature as a business entrepreneur.

Cecilia says : "We want to show people just how natural products can help. By trusting in the world that God created, we have been able to provide a skincare product which is incredibly natural and delivers results. That’s what motivates us. The results. We want to be able to come up with products that are using the ingredients in nature. Because it’s so important to us that everything we do is natural, you’ll never find anything artificial in our products. We don’t want to be like the rest of the beauty industry, because we have something unique to offer. "​

Angelica Marion 
Angelica Marion has always been inspired by films, so when she was around the age of 15/16 She came across an array of many dance film that sparked her interest in dance.
One particular film caught her eye, “ You got severed” She watched that film about 100 time. Downloaded the song from the film and played it back again and again trying to pick up the choreography.

She searched the internet for places that dancers would go so she could immerse her-self in the world of hip pop culture, in the hopes that she could become a great dancer and as luck would have it she did.

" I made friends who are amazing dancers and by watching them I learnt so much ‘popping, top rocks, house and whacking. I watched Dirty dancing and was inspired to learn salsa which took me six months to master. After spending hours watching peoples feet I gain confidence I finally had the courage asked people to dance, it took a while for them to warm towards to me but I haven’t looked back since"

Since then Angelica has done a couple of music videos : - Singing and dancing in Michael Jackson tribute play in Spain , The play one night in house of casa Blanca in Whales, A Featured dancer in Cuban furry, Currently  training at AMTA studying musical theatre and teaching bachata.
