Hello, I’m Astaria, a radiant soul immersed in Costa Rica’s lush beauty, not just a devoted mother and visionary musician but the luminary presence behind Light of Sound. Originating from the rainforest of Vancouver Island, Canada, my early years were filled with nature’s melodies, which ignited a profound understanding of the vibrational world of sound.
In 2008, my journey with cacao as a sacred medicine began. The magic of cacao, discovered while working as a chocolatier in a small family-owned chocolate shop, later led me to Costa Rica and Guatemala. Deepening my connection, I went on to host cacao and sound ceremonies, sharing the heart-opening magic that chocolate evokes.
Since 2014, I’ve traveled sharing sound and voice medicine, working as a resident retreat sound healer, participating in a sound mystery school, and curating transformative events. As a certified Sound Alchemist and experienced Voice Midwife, my role extends to guiding individuals and groups in unlocking the transformative power of their voice. Much like a midwife birthing the authentic expression within, I facilitate experiences that nurture the exploration and emergence of each unique voice. This process involves creating a sacred space for individuals to connect with their vocal essence, fostering a deeper understanding of their sonic self and empowering the discovery of their unique expression.
My multidimensional voice, combined with various instruments, creates harmonious soundscapes that not only clear the path to love and freedom, but also serve as a vessel for the rebirth of one’s authentic voice. I also love to empower others on this path, who hear the call to activate their own sound medicine in service to others, by offering mentorship.
My love for Mother Earth weaves through my being, inspiring Light of Sound’s sacred mission to awaken truth, love, and freedom through the transformative power of sound, voice, and the heart-opening medicine of cacao.
