Facilitators

MAHALA BERRY
M.S. SLP-CCC, Bilingual Speech-Language Pathologist, Energy Channel & Founder of The Manas Collective

Mahala Berry is a bilingual speech-language pathologist and energy healer whose work bridges science, spirit, and creativity. Her career has taken her across the globe—from U.S. schools and military clinics in Germany to public hospitals in Guatemala—serving individuals with diverse physical and neurological needs.

After a traumatic event led to a personal health crisis, Mahala began a deep healing journey, learning from medicine elders across Nepal, the Philippines, and New Mexico. Along the way, she developed the ability to channel higher frequencies and guide others in reconnecting to their own innate healing through energy work, creativity, and play in nature.

Now based in Xuilub, Yucatán, she is creating a new healing center near her teacher and mentor. The Manas Collective is the culmination of her path—a space where ancestral wisdom, imagination, and community come together to support healing across generations.

ANGIE GRUENENFELDER
LMT, Massage and Cranial Sacral Therapist

My mission is to provide a peaceful environment where you are able to unplug from the day. Through massage, my aim is to focus on nuturing the body and mind, allowing you to rest, realign and then reconnect to a balanced, calm, and more centered self.

Karen Reckinger
Sound Healing Practicioner

When Karen was first introduced to sound healing in the early 2000’s, she was struck by the tangible way she could feel her vibration after attending sound sessions, and how the feeling of being ‘tuned-up’ mentally, emotionally, and spiritually stayed with her. ​ Since then, her life’s journey has brought her to a place of providing sound for others; hosting a monthly Women’s Sound Circle, playing for groups during 3 Day Sound Immersion retreats, and offering sound and stone sessions for groups and individuals by appointment. ​

Guided by intuition, ear, and an innate empathic nature, she provides layers of instrumentation intended to invoke a deep meditative journey; working to help others relax, release, and gain insights. ​ Use of stones and crystals, along with sound therapy, enhances the properties of both of these modalities. ​ Karen has been working with sound healing instruments since 2015, and is certified through the Sound Healing Academy

Edward Shultz
Sound Healing Practicioner

Ed began playing music at an early age. ​ The knowledge gained through that study supports his intuitive process while practicing in the rudiments of Vedic Sound Therapy. ​ Over the past 10 years, working with Gongs, Hoop Drums, Chimes, Tibetan and Crystal Bowls, Ocean Drum, Monolina and other instruments, he has assisted hundreds of people through their process of releasing stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. ​

As a practitioner, he makes a clear distinction between music, and sound. ​ Music to the western ear has a distinct beginning, middle and end (The Aristotelian Model). ​ Whereas, sound holds to no beginning, middle or end templates. ​ Sound/vibration is intended to activate and/or clear energy through, or from, the person; whether that be physical, mental, and/or emotional energetics. ​ No two sessions are exactly the same, as no one person is exactly the same from one day to the next. ​

Edward began his study of Heart, Mind, Body, and Spirit over 45 years ago through books, lectures, and countless hours of written observation; much of which became poetry published in dozens of journals. ​ His collegiate studies were Psychology and Literature. ​

To Edward, the two most important relational activities are Listening and Prayer. ​ Listening puts us in right relationship with all Life, while Prayer puts us in right relationship with Spirit. ​

Her work gently supports the body’s natural ability to restore itself, using vibrational healing and intuitive guidance to align mind, body, and spirit. Kristi listens with care and reflects what is ready to be seen, offering a field of safety and resonance where transformation can unfold naturally.

BENJI SHURE
Quantum Activator, Source Channeler

A multidimensional galactic channel, healer, teacher and spiritual re-volution guide. An instrument of Light from an ancient collective, he’s currently one of a few individuals incarnate capable of holding and directing such immense light spectrums. With his unique connection and teams on the otherside, Benji is in the process of bringing through an ever expanding number of different languages of light, divine source codes, ‘Unknown’ information and new frequency healing system technologies.

Unknowingly, Benji spent his childhood fully enmeshed in and aware of multidimensional realities. As a result, he was less influenced by the psycho-social constructs around him. This allowed him to heighten his intuitive awareness of energetic frequencies and maintain Source connection. As you can imagine, this hyper-abillity to tune into to around 8800 different frequencies at once, manifested for Benji as a form of neuro-diversity, Autism. This has graced him with a beautiful humility and Ego/deception-less innocence.
