Love First

"Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love." – Mother Teresa



These profound words by Mother Teresa beautifully capture how a smile opens the heart, creating a bridge between souls. 


Hi, I'm Atalia — a loving guide, student of the soul, and the heart behind this work. I believe that the heart chakra should be the centre of our focus in all we do, in every word we speak, and especially in how we listen. My daily intention is to live with an open heart, a curious mind, and an ever-evolving soul. My highest purpose is to bring healing to myself and, through that journey, to those around me. With this clarity, I aspire to touch as many lives as I can, guided by compassion, kindness and integrity.

I find fulfillment in nature, embodying the thirteen Universal Laws as I live mindfully in the present moment each day. Rather than dwelling on the past or scripting the future, I choose to reflect on the past, heal those wounds and use the wisdom within to create a fluid, bright path ahead. Each moment is an opportunity to step into our Highest Selves—playful, creative, and fully alive. My creativity flows through sound, drawing, painting, surfing, hiking, and infusing life with color.


Although I was born in South Africa, my roots are no longer bound to one place. I am drawn to travel, to immerse myself in nature’s diverse landscapes, to encounter new people, and to savor the rich array of flavors the world offers. My journey has been painted with the contrasting hues of pain and joy. Along the way, I've learned to rewrite my own story by letting go of old beliefs, releasing trapped emotions and traumas—transforming pain into strength and challenges into triumphs. Love, forgiveness, acceptance, and growth have become my anchors, with change as my only constant. 

My Soul, Mother Gaia and Her sacred wombthe Oceanhas been my navigating compass, with Source illuminating my path every step of the way. 


During my nomadic journey, I uncovered a deeply buried truth from my childhood—I had been a victim of sexual abuse. My subconscious had concealed this trauma for years, shielding me until I was ready to confront it. The sickness, pain, and emotional blockages I experienced were my body’s way of signaling that something within me was out of balance and in need of healing. This realization marked the beginning of a mission: to liberate myself from the trauma and release the behavioral patterns that had kept me cycling in fear, pain and disbelief. Reflection, contemplation, plant medicine, and deep integration became the sacred pillars of my healing journey. Yet it was the energy healing I applied to myself that served as the essential alchemy—liberating me from the fears, emotions, and traumas that once held me captive within the painful confines of my own mind. Along the way, I came to understand that life doesn't happen to us, but for us. Each experience, no matter how difficult, holds a lesson meant to guide us deeper into our own awakening and mastery of this magical human journey.

My Intention

Since the beginning of my journey into self-discovery, I've been devoted to finding ways to help others heal from past traumas, creating harmony and balance within and all around. Along the way, I've explored many healing modalities, but everything shifted when I was introduced to a transformational Energy Healing Method that resonated deeply. After consistently practicing on myself and witnessing profound results, I knew it was time to share this powerful, yet simple method with my family and friends. My mission isn't only to help identify and release misalignments, but to empower others to learn and apply this modality for their own healing. With intention, understanding, and consistent practice, I believe that every individual holds the innate ability to heal themselves. Extraordinary healing lives within all of us—we’re simply here to help awaken that inner intelligence within each other. I walk this path beside you, offering support, guidance, and love. My essence is shaped by the thoughts I choose, the words I speak, and the actions I take—all aligned with the frequency of light and love. 

If resistance arises, know that it’s a natural part of the process. The ego may try to maintain control, but with your permission, we gently guide you home—from ego to soul. Resistance is not the enemy, but the invitation. As self-awareness and intuition awaken, we begin to understand that it is in the unfamiliar—the sacred unknown—where true evolution leads the way. Healing liberates the soul from the weight of suffering. Emotional triggers dissolve, reactive patterns fade, and in their absence, clarity, peace, and sovereignty rise. This is the New Earth way of living—joyful, creative, freeing, and blissful. It’s here that your inner genius comes alive. 

And I am honored to walk this journey with you.
