Carla Mattei:
My life has changed when I started meditation, yin yoga and listening to my inner guide :-) For the unusual hobbies I will say crystal healing and moon celebration!
I am a reiki teacher (energetic healing) and I use a lot of crystals to harmonize the chakra's and the vital energy. I like to create my sacred space, burning white sage, and using the energy of the moon!
Who are your heroes?
My heroes are Brigitte Bardot first for her engagement for the animal cause! (I am vegetarian since I've been 10 years old- Simone Weil for everything that she did for the woman's right!
And in fashion Gisele Bundchen for her engagement for the nature and earth! Her healthy body and mind even while being in this industry since so long!
What are your goals in life:
I have a lot of goals in my life, but basically my goal is to be in harmony and alignment with myself, always follow my dream! Live somewhere I can be in connection with nature and animals! Help people to find their path, and listen to their inner guide. And also help women to feel beautiful and love their bodies.
