Akasa means spirit in Hindu Tantrism.   Akasa also means the sky, the space, and/or the ether.   It represents the fifth element, from which the other four (earth, air, fire, and water) come from.  We see it as the big picture, a bird’s eye view of your life and all life, to better guide you in healing, growth, and deeper connection.

We are trip sitters, psychedelic guides and safe space holders.
We support your intentions.
