Baru Alegria

Baru is a gentle, welcoming presence who will accompany you throughout your stay. Born in the forests of the Bohemian Highlands, she has been shaped by nature and the Earth, which have remained her lifelong teachers. Inspired by a deep calling to understand the secrets of a joyful life, she now supports others on that path with warmth and care.

Her perspective is rooted in the belief that the answers we seek already live within us. She invites us to return to the heart, release fear and the patterns of the mind, soften, and trust. In her view, lasting change begins from within, and plants, when used with clear intention in a supportive setting, can help clear old energies and open the way to greater awareness, health, joy, inner strength, wisdom, and love.

Baru holds a degree in psychology and has also studied meditation and energy work. During three years in the Peruvian jungle, she learned and assisted at a healing center, where she supported a local shaman and completed several plant dietas. A lover of music, she brings a special atmosphere to the moments before certain ceremonies with the sound of a string santoor. She has also studied and worked in translation and offers Spanish interpretation. Baru assists during ceremonies, sharings, forest walks, and plant baths, and is available whenever guidance or support is needed.
