I am Asmara, and above all, I am a mother to two daughters, aged 14 and 11. In addition to being a mother, I’ve been an entrepreneur since I was 23 years old.

Seventeen years ago, I started my own real estate agency in Amsterdam, and in 2021, I launched a booking platform for luxury villas, retreats, boutique hotels, and private islands.

However, during the pandemic, I felt that something was missing. Although my first business was like a child to me, and I enjoyed curating beautiful locations through my second business, I felt a calling for a different way of life.

Like most mothers and women, I was always on the go – with my daughters, my businesses, new ideas, sports, and health.

But after attending various mother-daughter/child retreats, I discovered the power of stillness and time. Instead of feeling stressed by time, I learned to embrace it – time to connect with myself, with my daughters, with stillness, and with yoga.

I continued practicing yoga but felt the need to go deeper. So, I decided to study yoga from its roots – and I am still studying today – taking time for myself, as a form of self-love.

I needed this time for my body and mind. There is more to life than just working hard; balance is essential.

I fell in love with yoga and self-care and decided to pursue various holistic trainings to heal both body and mind. I am now certified in yoga (Hatha, Vinyasa asana and pranayama, Yoga Nidra), the foundational principles of Ayurveda, sound healing, and TTC – Talking to the Chakras – Spinal Energetics facilitation. I also trained in cacao facilitation, allowing me to work with this beautiful plant medicine during workshops, private yoga sessions, and retreats.

But as a born entrepreneur, I couldn’t just sit still, and thus, House of Munay was created. A place born from the idea of unconditional love – love for oneself and the power of self-care.

Now, I can combine my passion with what I believe is essential in this modern world: time for connection, stillness, rest, and healing. When your energy is in harmony and you take good care of yourself, you are not only better equipped to face challenges, but you can also experience deeper success – physically, mentally, and spiritually.

I offer private 1-on-1 sessions, programs, small group sessions, ceremonies, and retreats. I’m eager to share my expertise, particularly within the corporate world and hospitality sector, where I see a conscious and unconscious need for it. I believe it should be an integral part of life for entrepreneurs, employers, and their teams.

In 2025, I will be hosting small group and 1-on-1 retreats in Spain. More information will be available soon.
