I’m Yudy Veras Bueno, A Transformational Coach, a Spiritual & Emotional Guide, and best-selling author of The Becoming of A Light Warrior: A Practical Guide to Emotional Breakthrough. You are an emotional and spiritual guide? How does that even work, is this a religious thing? How are you different from a regular therapist or a “healer”? These are great questions - I like you already! My approach is different because I combine both, a modern scientific approaches and principles to emotional healing such as, neurolinguistic, neuro-associations, brain plasticity, and positive psychology, with a more holistic and powerful approach of natural and intuitive healing techniques of ancient wisdom, such as shamanic healing, sound therapy, reflective guided meditation, mindfulness, Reiki, and simple breathing techniques. This combination of proven scientific methods and ancient wisdom creates a unique symbiosis for a more complete holistic approach to emotional healing. I know… Maybe you were looking for a more simple answer. In simple terms, I have great love and respect for science, this was one of the reasons I spent almost 20 years of my life in Pharma, training, doing investigations, auditing, which really opened me up to a greater understanding of human behavior, and how people act under extremely stressful situations. Yes, I’m a Certified NAP and NLP Practitioner (Neuro Associative Programming and Neuro-Linguistic Programming), a Certified Reiki Master, and Mindfulness Coach. And, I do have a BS in organizational management for understanding group dynamics, behavior, and diversity, which helps a lot, but there’s nothing like a real-life experience. For instance, my dad was a shaman, a healer, a medicine man, as early as seven years of age, I saw him doing amazing healings using some form of the very same ancient healing practices that I mentioned. And, so I was very curious on how he was able to do such things, even when actual doctors gave up on the person. One thing became very clear to me, there is no one thing that will work. We must try different ways and not give up. Also, the fact that I come from the Dominican Republic, and as an immigrant, I was able to understand that when we are willing to put in the effort, we can create amazing results. In my case, coming to this country meant that I have to give up my very familiar life, my friends, my comfortable job, my language, partially at least, to adapt to new ways of living, thinking, acting, and even behaving. So, that tells me that if you really want something, whatever it is, you can do it, and the only person stopping you right now, is YOU!
