"Each day our soul whispers to our consciousness like the rising sun, beckoning us to turn our faces towards our own brilliance and be warmed by its light"
The power of Nature is its ability to feed and restore our true inner nature. Each rock, star, tree and drop of water contains within it the essence of a universal Spirit. Every flower, blade of grass, and grain of sand contains the truth of our creative capacity; every animal is a reminder of a quality within us.
Ata Mōra Retreats are the heart of the institute. Although the locations and themes vary, there are elements that are intrinsically woven into the fabric of every retreat experience…
“The path to the richness within is paved in chocolate.”-Jasmin Blanc
The world has an insatiable appetite for chocolate. In 2013/2014 more than 70,000 metric tons of chocolate was consumed. Out of our tremendous craving and appreciation for all things cacao, chocolate has become synonymous with decadence, love and pleasure (sometimes a guilty one).
Summer is in full swing, and with it comes many opportunities: summer vacations, cookouts, walks in the park and strolls along the beach. As you set out to partake in the summer fun and leisure of your choosing, pause for a moment to consider one of the stars of the summer season: the Sun. With […]
One of my heroes growing up was Jacques Cousteau. Not only did he nourish my love of the sea and inspire me to pursue a degree in Marine Biology, he modeled something important about people: that we have many talents and that our life path can encompass many things. Jacques Cousteau was an inventor, activist, […]
I highly recommend working with Kapria! She is extremely insightful, compassionate & heartfelt.
Kapria gives graciously of her time, she works with the highest level of integrity, and is concise in how exactly she can help you – she gets right to the heart of the matter & you can trust that she cares deeply about what she does and what is best for you. I was able to get immediate results after working with her – I know that is not always the case or the goal for this type of work, as things often need time to be worked through with patience, but she speaks my language so to speak, so things tend to connect right away when I work with her. 😊

Years ago, I went through a heartbreaking breakup that left an incredibly deep void in my life. What I had suspected for years, which would later be confirmed by my therapist, my pain stemmed not only from that breakup but also from unresolved emotional trauma in my childhood. Feeling stagnant in my progress through conventional emotive therapy, I sought the help of a friend and colleague, Kapria, whose practice in Reiki and spiritual healing, helped me confront the source of my pain directly and with abashed honesty. The first few weeks of my journey with Kapria did more for me than months of emotive therapy. There were moments of clarity mixed with sadness, fear, and understanding. Kapria’s compassion, patience & kindness helped guide me to a place where I could face my past head-on and find a way to move forward with courage and great resolve. I will never forget my experience with Kapria. The few months I spent with her has anchored me in the past 10 years and I will be forever grateful.

Thank You For Visiting
“The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. As long as this exists, and it certainly always will, I know that then there will always be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be. And I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.”
