Nelma Hero Pic

Introducing Nelma Karina Sumbe-Bradley, a multifaceted soul with a deep passion for healing and nurturing the body, mind, and soul. Nelma's journey has led her to embody the roles of a 200 HR Yoga Teacher, Sound Therapy Healer, and Culinary Chef, making her a powerful force in the realms of well-being and self-discovery.
,br>Hailing from the vibrant land of Angola in West Africa, Nelma is a testament to the rich cultural heritage that shaped her life and beliefs. She possesses the gift of language and fluently speaks three languages, allowing her to bridge connections with diverse communities and souls around the world.

Nelma's life is a tapestry of love and fulfillment as she shares her home with her two beautiful babies, Dominique Jr. and Ajaala, alongside her loving husband and life partner. This dream family provides the foundation for her unwavering dedication to self-growth and empowerment.

Yet, Nelma's path to discovering her Divine self was not without its trials. She faced extreme personal trauma during her childhood and tumultuous dating experiences, which could have left her spirit shattered. Instead, she courageously transformed her pain into a source of strength and compassion.

Guided by her own healing journey, Nelma has dedicated her life's work to empowering women, especially mothers, in reclaiming their inherent power after giving birth. She firmly believes that connecting with one's divine essence is the key to manifesting the life of one's dreams.

For over a decade, Nelma has immersed herself in the practices of yoga and sound therapy, unlocking their profound healing potential. Her belief in the therapeutic power of movement and music led her to become a 200 HR Yoga Teacher and a Sound Therapy Healer, merging both disciplines to create a truly rooted and natural experience.

Nelma's prowess extends beyond healing modalities, as she is also an accomplished Culinary Chef with 15 years of culinary expertise. She recognizes that food, like movement and music, is a medicine for the body, mind, and soul. She weaves her culinary magic into her offerings, providing nourishing sustenance to complement her transformative practices.

With her unique ability to integrate movement, music, and food into a cohesive experience, Nelma Karina Sumbe-Bradley touches the lives of those she encounters, inspiring them to reconnect with their most natural and sensual selves. Through her passion and dedication, she continues to create the life of her dreams alongside her dream family, and she aspires to transmit that same light and love to other women, guiding them back to their own divine essence.

Details

Day 1

Arrival and Opening Ceremony

Welcome, beautiful souls, to your sacred journey of transformation and awakening. Once you arrive at the airport, a private shuttle will whisk you through the captivating beauty of the Yucatan Peninsula to the lush jungles of Akumal, where our eco-retreat sanctuary sits amidst the rhythm of Mother Earth. It's here, wrapped in the harmonious whispers of the forest and the mystical hum of the Riviera Maya, that you'll begin to shed the layers of your former self, realign with your true essence, and step into your divine power.

As you check into this beautiful space, allow the gentle pulse of the sacred land to wash over you, inviting your spirit to attune to the energy of renewal and rebirth. We will gather together for our retreat orientation, an opportunity for each divine soul to be seen, heard, and honored in their journey. Following this sacred bonding, our opening ceremony will commence, grounding and connecting our collective energy to the heartbeat of Mother Earth, preparing us to delve deep into our soul purpose and the transformative Divine Feminine re-awakening journey that lies ahead. As twilight descends, we will surrender to a serene evening yoga session, led by Nelma, to help you release any residual tensions and embrace the sacred rhythm of your breath.

As the day concludes, we will gather under the ethereal blanket of the stars for a nourishing welcome dinner. Brimming with wholesome vegetarian options, this dinner will not only feed your body but also nourish your soul, setting the tone for the empowering and transformational journey to come.

Day 2

Embracing the Divine Feminine

Awaken to the chorus of the jungle as a new day dawns. Together, under the gentle warmth of the morning sun, we'll partake in yoga practice, steeped in the energy of the divine feminine. Guided by Nelma, we'll explore movements that celebrate our inherent grace, strength, and fluidity, allowing us to tap into our reservoir of feminine energy and surrender to the rhythm of our own unique dance.

As our practice concludes, we'll gather for a vibrant breakfast filled with nourishing and energizing choices, all prepared with intention to enliven your spirit for the day ahead. Primed with sustenance, we will then delve into a profound workshop focused on understanding the Divine Feminine. We will explore the archetypes and qualities of the feminine divine, embarking on a journey of discovery and reflection that allows us to connect with our inner-self.

After the workshop, we'll journey to the pristine shores of Akumal Beach for an afternoon of sun, sea, and soulful connection with nature. As evening approaches, a restorative yoga session will allow us to honor the sacred art of self-care as Nelma guides us through gentle postures to relax your body and calm your mind.

The night concludes with a nourishing and comforting dinner, allowing us to reflect on the experiences of the day.

Day 3

Healing and Releasing

Greet the dawn with a serene morning meditation, setting the intention for healing and release. This allows you the chance to explore the boundless depths of your inner landscape. As our collective breath harmonizes with the pulsating rhythm of the jungle, we will awaken our higher selves and align with the vibration of the divine.

Following a wholesome breakfast, we will prepare ourselves for an immersive journey into ancient wisdom with a shamanic temazcal ceremony. The sweat lodge will act as a sacred womb, a place for purification and renewal. Here, we'll surrender to the transformative power of the elemental forces, allowing the heated stones to help us release what no longer serves our journey and emerge reborn, clearer, and more connected with our true selves.

Revitalized by the powerful ceremony, we will then energize ourselves with a lunch that celebrates Mother Earth's bounty — relish in the medley of fresh salads and rejuvenating dishes. Following lunch, we'll journey to the enchanting Tulum Center. Here, we will connect with the rich history and spiritual essence of Tulum, immersing ourselves in the local stories. Finally, as dusk blankets the Riviera Maya, we will return to Ekumal for a comforting dinner of delicious plant-based options.

Day 4

Empowerment and Celebration

Before breakfast this morning, we'll ignite our internal fire through a yoga session focused on empowerment and strength, fostering resilience within ourselves. After nourishing ourselves with breakfast, we'll gather for a transformative workshop: 'Embodying the Divine Feminine'. During this session, we will delve into practices designed to cultivate confidence and nurture self-love. Nelma seeks to inspire a potent sense of self-acceptance and equip you with the tools to honor your essence beyond the boundaries of this retreat.

After a nourishing lunch, we will embark on an adventure to the ethereal Cenote Dos Ojos. The sacred waters of this majestic cenote invite us to cleanse, heal, and renew in their crystalline depths.

Later, during a sacred group activity, we will work to build a women's empowerment altar. This powerful symbol of our shared journey and sisterhood will serve as a tangible testament to the divine energy we've cultivated, a beacon of strength, unity, and resilience!

As the sun begins to set, we convene for our closing ceremony. A celebration of personal growth and collective transformation, we'll express our deepest gratitude to each other, to our journey, and to the divine feminine energy that has guided us, echoing our thanks into the sacred corners of the Riviera Maya. Then, we'll close the night with a farewell dinner.

Day 5

Integration and Departure

Begin the final day with a silent nature walk. Use this sacred time for self-reflection and integration, honoring the transformative journey you've embarked upon. After a nourishing breakfast, it's time to gather for a closing circle, sharing insights and lessons gathered from this retreat. Let this shared wisdom deepen the roots of your experience. Before we part ways, Nelma will guide us through a final meditation to ground and anchor the retreat's essence, helping you carry your newfound wisdom home.

As our journey concludes, we say our farewells, carrying the divine energy of our retreat into our daily lives, forever touched by our shared exploration of the feminine divine.
