My Mission --- Many people live in a state of unconsciousness, unaware of their true nature and purpose. They are disconnected from the source of life energy that flows through all things. This energy has different frequencies or vibrations, and the higher ones are associated with joy, love, peace and wisdom.
I help people to become more conscious and aware of their potential by tuning into these higher vibrations, so that they can experience a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
Maureen "Marina" DaCosta
I was born in the USA, lived in Colorado for many years, and now live in a remote fishing village on the coast of Brasil outside Paraty, RJ. My two sons who live in the USA continue to teach me unconditional love, acceptance, and patience,
I have been on the path of Spiritual Discovery and Transformation for over 60 years. The greatest adventure is going within and attuning with our own Divine Energy. My father gave me a book by Edgar Cayce when I was 14 years old. This led me on a quest to study with many great spiritual masters.
____I was a teacher of the powerful course The Silva Method for psychic development, manifestation and healing. What stands in the way of our ideal life, though, are our past traumas, programming, and false beliefs.
____At the Loving Relationships Training with Sondra Ray in 1984 I first experienced BreathWork, and many other techniques for healing the past. After profound experiences, I became a BreathWork facilitator (called "rebirthing" at the time)
____I started the lifelong journey of studying The Course in Miracles as it retrains the mind to see the true reality of who we are and what the world is.
____Haidakhan Babaji in India is my true Sat Guru. I had an incredible spiritual experience at his ashram in India, and hence returned there many times for an energetic upgrade of the heart.
____Meditation is my daily practice. I have been initiated into many meditation techniques over the last 50 years. The most powerful was being personally initiated by Pramahamsa Hariharananda in the Kriya Yoga method.
____I learned many lessons studying and spending time with Sri Sir Ravi Shankar of The Art of Living.
____I attended three Advanced courses at Oneness University in India, where I experienced profound Kundalini awakenings, expanded states of consciousness with many deep insights into the nature of reality, and our Divine Self.
___Gangteng Tulku Rinpoche of Bhutan is my revered Buddhist teacher. I had the great privilege of studying and traveling with him in the US and Bhutan.
___Robert Kiyosaki taught me about my own personal power through several powerful training retreats.
___Past Life Regression Therapy is something I practiced for many years and further studied with Dolores Cannon (Quantum Healing Hypnosis Therapy).
____Having practiced various styles of Yoga for 50 years, I became a certified teacher of Shivananda Yoga in UttarKashi India in 2010.
____I lead Kirtan sessions (devotional music of India)
____Having learned so many profound techniques over the years, led me to develop and teach my own most effective and easy methods of meditation called Crystal Light Meditation using the chakra centers for attaining peace and higher awareness.
After so many years of search and different practices, the most powerful tool for transformation is still breathwork therapy. PRANA BREATHWORK has brought me to states of expanded awareness, and higher consciousness beyond anything else I have experienced, including plant medicine.
I believe that each person has the potential to live a fulfilling and meaningful life. My therapy services and travel experiences are designed to help you tap into the higher vibrations of joy, love, peace, and wisdom, allowing you to become more conscious and aware of your potential.
Please join me on the journey of adventures in consciousness. I'm here to support you every step of the way.
