Meet Juan Manuel

I’m a ceremonialist, facilitator & medicine musician, passionate about creating spaces for positive transformation, embodied change, remembrance, be at home in our bodies and reconnect with Mother Earth.

I was born and raised in Argentina, Bali is where home is, and I had the blessing to explore the world where I got to learn from different lineages, cultures and bodies of wisdom that inspired me in so many ways.

Through my offerings I bring together 13+ years of experience in the fields of self-development, wellness and holistic healing & living, integrating ancient and modern approaches and the wisdom from my own life initiations and journeys.

I’ve been regularly curating and facilitating Cacao & Sacred Fire Ceremonies and diverse Sacred spaces. These bring together people from all walks of life for special moments such as: Solstices, Equinoxes, Full & New Moon and private events, Ceremonial concerts, family events, important moments in life, retreats & trainings; supporting specific intentions, visions and prayers for each occasion.

My wish is that these spaces support us come back home within and celebrate the gift life is and come out ready and inspired to embody more of who we are and share the blessings and insights with the world, walking in right relation, Gratitude, appreciation and Celebration of Life

Upcoming Events

Tickets & info

Since 2008 I'm walking the Sacred Path of serving Mother Earth & Spirit and following their call and guidance, in devoted and committed dedication to support us remembering who we are, the healing of what limits our expression and discovering new ways of being with ourselves, our surroundings and one another.

On my journey, I went through a myriad of life initiations and rites of passage, moving through my own personal challenges & limitations, overcoming addiction, drug abuse, depression, anxiety, stress, burnout, Borderline Personality Disorder & CPTSD, and traversing transformational experiences of all sorts, each giving me a gift and a blessing to carry on with renewed appreciation and gratitude for life and taking me to this present moment.

I have participated, supported, organized and facilitated in retreats, trainings, festivals & immersions in the fields of Shamanic Work, Plant Medicine, Music, Dance, Tantra, Yoga, Permaculture, Intimacy & Relationships, Somatic Healing and Shadow Work to name a few, and I'm continuously learning and exploring new growing edges.

This field of work speaks to my Heart and it’s very dear to me.

My intention is to support people awaken and attune to their inner guidance, coming home to their Heart, connect with Spirit and Earth, integrating all parts of themselves and finding their unique way of walking life in beauty, celebration, integrity, alignment, gratitude, joy, Love and right relation with all.

TESTIMONIALS

Juan not only introduced me into the finer layers of Cacao preparation, he also took me on a very personal journey, to connect with the land, the elements, the spirit of Cacao and my own deepest intentions. Every gesture and every bit of wisdom he shared spoke of a deep resect for the medicinal plant, offering ceremonial spaces and for the people cultivating the cacao.

What he does is not just "facilitation", he is living the way with great authenticity and devotion. I am very grateful I had the opportunity to observe and learn from him in a private setting and can recommend that to anyone who plans to journey with Cacao.

Thank you very very much

🌿 The altar, Beyond distances 🌍

The altar is now open, wherever you are.

I’m bringing the ceremonial space I hold in person into the online realm.

After years of holding in-person ceremonies and sacred spaces, I’m opening the space to bring some of the ceremonial work I offer in person into the online realms, bringing the same depth, presence, and intention to 1:1 sessions.

This offering is here to make this work more accessible, and to support those who feel called to explore new ways of deep & intentional healing and cultivate well-being into their lives, from anywhere in the world.

🌟 To begin this journey, I’m offering 10 one-on-one sessions at a special introductory rate to support your current intentions and also receive your reflections as I refine this online space 🌟

These sessions are tailored to you, guided by what’s present and alive in your heart.

Some of the themes we can explore:

🌬 Letting go & energetic clearing
🌱 Calling in & manifesting
💛 Gratitude & prosperity
🌑 Support New beginnings & completing cycles
🧬 Ancestral healing & connection
🌀 Integrating transformational experiences
🍫 Cacao connection & activation
🔥 Sacred Space creation & Facilitation

This work is rooted in over 14 years of walking with different healing modalities, bridging ancient and modern approaches, and drawing inspiration from diverse lineages, teachers, and Earth-based wisdom traditions that are close to my heart.

It’s also shaped by all I’ve learned through facilitating ceremonies and holding space for individuals and groups in different settings and intentions.

Together, we’ll create a sacred container guided by the elements, prayer, Earth & Spirit, intuitive listening, and medicine music to be with what is, receive insight, open new perspectives, and move forward with greater clarity and wholeness.

📩 DM me if this resonates and we’ll find a time to connect.

And if someone you love may feel the call, I’d be deeply grateful if you shared this with them too.

Thank you for receiving this offering. May it reach those who need it and support all of us to live life in beauty and right relation 💜🙌🏽

🔥 The Sacred Fire is a profound guide—a source of wisdom, healing, transformation, and manifestation.

For millennia, our ancestors have gathered around the Fire to pray, sing, celebrate life, honor endings and new beginnings, manifest dreams, and heal. Fire has always been a space for cultivating community and connection.

Fire is the representation of the Sun on the Earth, and similarly a mirror of the life force in our Heart that flows into our whole being.

I experience Fire as a profound teacher—a gateway between heaven and earth, the visible and invisible, the everyday and the Divine. It invites us to remember, reconnect, and share our prayers, which are received and carried through its sacred flames.

As Tz'utujil Mayan elder Tata Pedro Cruz once said, “In front of the Sacred Fire, everything has a solution.” All it requires is our presence and our open hearts ready to share our prayers and receive the medicine, wisdom, and guidance this elemental force offers.

Gracias Abuelo Fuego for your blessings & teachings.

•

With deep reverence for this ancient teacher, I'm grateful to carry and share the wisdom I’ve gathered from different lineages, traditions, and my own journey being in ceremony by the Sacred Fire.

It’s an honor to create and hold spaces where we can come together, connect with this sacred wisdom, celebrate life in all its beauty, and receive the blessings that Grandfather Fire so generously offers.

If you’re in Bali, join us this Wednesday, January 29th, 7 PM at @alchemyyogaubud for “Abuelo Fuego,” a special New Moon Sacred Fire Ceremony.

🎟 Bookings via link in bio & stories.

Everything is prepared for us to gather with Grandfather Fire, receive its blessings, and connect with the sacred medicine it offers 🔥🙌🏽

I look forward to sharing this beautiful space with you. See you there!

Gracias Mama Quilla 🌕

Thank you Mother Moon, for your ongoing reminders of cycles, the eternal dance bewteen darkness and light, their integration, and being the reference point for our journeys as we cruise on this beautiful Mother Earth around the Sun.

For millenia we gathered in this specific moment to celebrate Life, to weave dreams into reality, to co-create and vision together, to release and let go, to seed and call In... and so much more.

We love honoring this cycle and those ways of aligning with the rhythms of life, and it's a great joy and makes our Hearts dance and sing that we get to create spaces for us to remember these ways, reconnect, listen, give thanks, make offerings, pray, sing, cry, dance and celebrate Life together in all its spectrum and colors.

Thanks Life for giving us this gift and opportunity. May it contribute for us all to live in right relation and walk the ways of the Heart and beauty each and every day.

VIVA!!! 🌕🙌🏽🎶🔥☕💜

CACAO CONNECTION
Saturday 10th • 11am-4pm | @soulcity_zurich

•

I warmly invite you to come, experience and receive what's available in the special upcoming Cacao Connection workshop.

This is such a dear offering to my heart and I'm excited to bring this to Switzerland and share it with all those keen on learning more about Cacao, how to make your own Ceremonial Cacao + work and connect with it, and grow in the path of bringing more of the Sacred into our lives (+++ many more blessings and surprises!)

Above all, this is an invitation to grow into living life in gratitude, appreciation & celebration for the gift it is, finding our own ways to integrate these teachings into what we do and spread the good vibes all around! Ihuuuu!!!

Cacao has been one of my greatest allies, healer, teacher, and guide along the way. Helping me soften shields, look beyond the guards, connect to my Heart, remember who am I, what I'm here for, steering & encouraging me more and more into being and sharing it.

I hold this medicine so lovingly and dearly in my heart, with great gratitude and respect for its gentle yet profound power, wisdom and medicine. Gracias, Maltiox, viva Cacao!

Sacred and Ceremonial Spaces have been the nest and fertile grounds for tons of healing and growth, and portals to connect with the Divine & Nature beyond what I can describe. It's a blessing to create and share them with and for others.

I'm devoted and dedicate my life to these ways, and I give thanks for all the teachers both visible and invisible in this Ceremonial Path and all the lessons, discoveries, remembrance and blessings from and in it.

I'm super looking forward to meet you there. Saturday 10th, 11am @soulcity_zurich LAST SEATS AVAILABLE.

If you want to know more, comment "Cacaocito" or your fav emoji combo below and I'll send you more info via DM or find more in my bio and stories.

Big gratitude to my Love @purnama.world for inviting me once again to your homelands, for all the contribution and support on the backend of this and for being by my side to make this possible. Forever grateful, Love you!

VIVA CACAO!! VIVA LA VIDA!!

Gracias Madre Tierra. Thank you Mother Earth.

Moved and touched by your immense, awe inspiring and endless beauty, magic & wisdom.

I thank you each and every day, for being the witness, nurturer, muse and ultimate space holder of this adventure called Life.

An adventure of reconnection, remembering, gratitude and ongoing invitations to walk in beauty, right relation, celebrating the blessing being alive is. What a gift!!

Thanks for your unconditional Love, Patience, Forgiveness, Understanding, Smiles, Guidance and Inspiration along the way.

I Love you. Gracias. Thank you. Suksma. Maltiox.

Jallalla!

"We have an innate wisdom, always present within, that’s the inner Healer and Teacher sitting inside waiting for us to reconnect with it, and listen. From there we can move forward, feeling at home in our bodies, minds, hearts and Spirit; realize our full potential and walk life in beauty and right relation with all that is."
