“I had a virtual private session with the lovely Raquel Naomi, who gently reminded me of the importance of breath, and the power of ‘Presence.’

Raquel advised me what I could do ahead of time to make the most of our time together and help enhance the experience. She guided me on creating the ideal space for myself as well as the oils that I could use for my session.

It wasn’t necessary to run out and purchase these oils, but I was told if I just happened to have them available, it could heighten the senses. I’ve never adorned myself with all these various oils at one time. It felt as though we honored every chakra as being important and needed. Simply LOVED the time we spent on this.

The music Raquel played was so well thought of and fitting. I felt guided & supported while I practiced the breath and was definitely taken to a new level in breathwork. It brought me to tears, sobbing, thinking about the pandemic and how it’s revealing Universal truths. I was left with the intense desire to only be kind, only be Love; believing “as long as there’s breath, there’s purpose.”

Raquel reminded me that simply taking a Breath helps EVERYTHING ALL THE TIME.”

“I attended Raquel’s virtual circle for the Full Moon of Aries/in Libra and it was the first time I’ve ever received a breathwork session...it was AMAZING!

I love that Raquel shared information about the Full Moon and named the energy we were experiencing at this time. Since it was mines and my boyfriend’s first time experiencing this, Raquel was very informative about the process. She also mentioned what materials to gather prior to the session.

Based on the essentials oils I had (lavender and peppermint), Raquel suggested what chakra to place them on and the benefits they had. I put lavender on my throat to help me with communication and while doing the breathwork, I felt a cooling sensation as if my chakra was being cleansed.

From the time she opened the circle, Raquel made us feel welcomed loved, supported, and safe so we could share freely. She helped us ground prior to beginning the breathwork.

While breathing, she guided us in a gentle tone with the perfect sequence of music to go with it. I felt a tingly sensation beginning in my earlobes, moving down to my chest and into my abdomen. When it moved into my hands, it began to intensify. She directed me to scream using a pillow, which felt like an instant release of letting go. At the end of the session, it felt like a weight was lifted off of me. The breathwork session was intense, liberating, and healing. I have gratitude in having experienced this and to have Raquel help guide me through this healing process.”

“Prior to working with Raquel, I didn’t know what breathwork was. My girlfriend invited me to do it with her, which turned out to be a rewarding experience. Raquel was an amazing guide, informing us how to prepare and created a connection with each individual present. During the breathwork, I experienced my feet clenching and my teeth buzzing! The breathwork was intense...I got a little emotional and had to slow my breathing down at some points. After the session, Raquel explained in depth what I was feeling and which chakra was blocked in my body. I recommend her as a healer and am looking forward to continuing to heal.”

“Working with Raquel has helped me find clarity and taught me how to find it for myself. At the beginning of our 9 weeks together, my mind was all over the place. I often said, ‘I have no time’ and rushed from one thing to another, with no time for myself. Her recommendation of time-blocking, meditating daily, and the simple question of ‘Does this person deserve my energy right now?’ helped immensely. She held me accountable to the tasks that gave my life structure, balance, & intention.

Raquel shed light to my strengths, values, and learning style, which was crucial in finally understanding and learning to love me. I now recognize there is contraction with expansion and that I must make room for what I want through shedding what is not alignment with that. She has taught me that there are no such things as coincidences, to recognize synchronicities, to take a step back, look at the bigger picture, let go, & trust.

After our 9 weeks together, I know that I am called to serve others because I no longer pour from an empty cup. Today, I am fearless because I know the divine power within me can manifest whatever it wants. Today, I can finally look in the mirror and genuinely say ‘I love you.’ ”

“The biggest reason I chose coaching was because I totally lost myself throughout my degree; I wasn’t waking up with excitement, rather with a lot of worrying and just wanting to get through my day. It wasn’t because I didn’t like my major…I enjoyed it, but deep down I knew something was lacking. Throughout our 9 weeks, I’ve gotten to know myself better, like what makes my heart beat and I’ve realized my love for dancing and the arts through the tasks Raquel assigned. I now allocate time to do things that I love while balancing my work/study life. I used to beat myself up for doing things I loved because I viewed it something that was pointless and a waste of time…but I have learned to love myself unconditionally— it’s all part of life. We all deserve entertainment, rest, and most importantly, to be happy.

Raquel’s patience, guidance, and friendliness have allowed me to step out of my comfort zone without fear of being judged. I have become a much more positive person that even the people who surround me notice, and I’m able to handle problems better with a calmer heart because I realize nothing is ever too bad…it’s always a lesson from the universe. It’s part of growing. My advice for people who want to be coached by Raquel: get ready to commit 100% and when you do, be prepared for a big change. You’ll be surprised with your transformation by the end of your 9 weeks.”
