A Sacred Space of Sounds & Magic

A Sacred Space of Sounds & Magic

Welcome, beloved Soul!

I’m so grateful our paths have crossed — whether here in this virtual space or one day in person. I believe every meeting carries meaning; certain encounters awaken something we’ve longed to remember, heal, or reclaim.

In this realm, I weave what lives closest to my heart: the healing frequencies of alchemy crystal bowls, gongs, voice, the gentle medicine of cacao, movement and the timeless power of ceremony. Each offering is an invitation to return to yourself… to remember what’s sacred and to reconnect with the unseen threads that guide your path.

Sounds & Magic was born from a vision: to hold space for deep healing, harmony, and heart-connection.
Here, healing is never forced — it unfolds softly, like a song remembered by the soul. A subtle, yet powerful awakening that touches every part of your being.

  • "My experience at the Ceremony with Followers of the Heart was transformative and deeply healing. Under Daniela's skilled guidance, allowed for profound release of physical and emotional blockages, leaving me with lasting benefits. Notably, my pre-existing lower back pain disappeared, and minor respiratory issues improved significantly. The ceremony fostered a strong sense of community and shared healing, making it a powerful journey of personal growth and connection. Daniela's ability to navigate and transform the heavy energy in the room into insightful teachings was remarkable. I am grateful for this experience and highly recommend Followers of the Heart for anyone seeking meaningful healing and self-discovery."

  • "It always amazes me how sounds and music can run through your body and have a liberating and healing effect. Listening to a powerful melody can sometimes catch me off guard. When intentionally surrendering yourself to it in a sound healing ceremony guided by Daniela was a whole different level. The combination of beautiful song, majestic crystal bowls, and skillfully played instruments made this experience humbling, mesmerising and above all healing. It made me cry happy and grateful tears and helped me let go of limitations I was unknowingly holding on to. Drinking the rich and flavour bombed cacao warmed my heart.  Overall, an experience I will never forget!"

  • "The Cacao and Sound healing ceremony was a wonderful experience! A profound sense of emotion, allowing me to let go negative energy and emotions and connect with my heart, the smoothing vibration of the sounds enveloped me, easing tension and inviting deep relaxation. Highly recommend for anyone seeking holistic wellness and inner harmony."

  • "I recently had the pleasure of experiencing sound healing for the first time at Followers of the Heart, and I must say it was a truly relaxing and calming experience. The sound healing session was deeply soothing, and I found myself feeling completely at ease throughout. The atmosphere was serene, and it was the perfect space to unwind. Daniela has an intuitive approach that makes you feel comfortable and supported from the moment you step in. Her fluidity in guiding the session was impressive, and she has a natural ability to create a peaceful and welcoming environment.In addition to sound healing, Daniela is also a good yoga instructor. Her teaching style is thoughtful, and I can tell that she genuinely cares about her students’ well-being. I’m excited to continue practicing yoga with her and would highly recommend Followers of the Heart to anyone looking for a holistic, nurturing experience."

  • “Cacao & Sound Healing is a beautiful and purifying experience. It’s an exercise connecting the body and the mind, and to access the emotions and memories had long been complacent. Daniela created a safe space and guide us though sharing, reflecting, and cocreating. The day is filled with deepest and the most authentic messages to ourselves, as well as love and music. I would recommend this experience to those who urge a dose of song to your soul."

    Miro, Amsterdam

  • "Attending the cacao ceremony on July 6, 2024, organized by Daniela, was an incredibly special experience. It was my first time, and I did not know what to expect, but Daniela made everything feel so welcoming and heartwarming. The cacao she prepared was rich and earthy, grounding us in the moment. But what made the ceremony even more powerful was the sound healing. As we sipped the cacao, Daniela introduced gentle sounds that resonated deeply, creating a calming and meditative atmosphere. The combination of the cacao and the sound healing helped me connect with my emotions in a way I had not before. By the end, I felt lighter, more centered, and truly connected with myself and the group. It was a beautiful experience, and I am so grateful to Daniela for guiding us through it. I would definitely recommend her ceremonies to anyone looking for a meaningful and enriching experience."

    Ece, Amsterdam

  • “Before participating in the Followers of the Heart ceremony, I had never tried cacao, and I didn’t know what to expect. Having tried it, I can only describe the experience as beautiful and profound. Daniela explained every step and guided us throughout the whole process. The setting was friendly and comfortable, so after the short yoga session, I could close my eyes and enjoy the healing sounds and vibrations of the music. The experience allowed me to look inside and look at certain things from a different perspective, which I have not seen before being stuck in the same thought pattern. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience!"

    Natalia, Amsterdam

  • "It was a nice setting. Very peaceful and connected. The cacao was nice, the sound healing was beautiful as the singing. I would highly recommend other people to have a good experience in this setting."

    Marti, Haarlem

  • “I tried cacao for the first time at the ceremony organised by Followers of the Heart. Daniela prepared a nice and comfy setting. During  the ceremony she played on singing bowls, guitar and sang songs. I found the atmosphere relaxing, the music, and her beautiful voice helped me to enjoy the experience and gave the feeling of a flow. I could see all sorts of patterns, shapes and sometimes pictures when I closed my eyes. I noticed that the patterns and their colours changed along with the emotions that were rising like ways, one coming after the other. Now I think that the effect of cacao helped me to surface all stored feelings one by one, and relive them through pictures, colours and patterns. I am left with a good memory about that experience, and something to reflect on."

    Daria, Utrecht

  • “Daniela and Linda take so much joy in the work that they are doing that it’s infectious. They have a warm and kind demeanor and it’s a pleasure to allow them to guide you on such a journey. I have done a bit of sound healing in other places before, but it never made sense until this session. I think the following contributed to a better experience this time: the extended amount of time, the instruments that Daniela and Linda are using (especially the beautiful crystal bowls), and their skilled guidance. To make the best out of this experience I do recommend having some experience with meditation. They have a lot of room to grow and I can’t wait to see how they evolve.” 

    Daria B, Utrecht

  • "I had the luck to do my first cacao ceremony with Daniela and Linda, and it was a very nice and intense experience. The location, the intimate group we were; their guidance and the natural magic of the truffles, in combination with the vibration of the music, and the energy healing, were making this experience a pleasure. A perfect combination of laughs and tears was served, and that helped to release so much!! The experience is totally worth it!"

    MAC, Haarlem

  • "I participated in the truffles ceremony and can not recommend it enough (it was my first time). It was truly an experience! We shared, bonded, sang, meditated, did a short yoga and much more. To be honest, 6 hours passed too fast. I felt like I found my tribe and plan to return soon."

    Tânia, Haarlem

  • "First of all I'm deeply grateful for your warmth when I came in especially because I really had no idea what to expect, and I felt the introduction you gave us including how you got into this space really prepared us for the journey we were about to go on with you. The gongs, the alchemy crystal bowls, your voice really just unlocked vivid images of people that have passed on in my family, that felt so real. I left the session really feeling at peace and just light in a way that I really don't understand myself. I loved it, and I actually left wanting to learn more about sound journey."

    Sibulele, Saudi Arabia

  • "I truly enjoyed my time, but I realized I was a bit too focused on anticipating what would happen next, which made it hard for me to fully relax or turn inward the way I would’ve liked. In the past, I’ve tried yoga to release tension and calm down, but doing it in silence always led me to overthink and feel even more stressed. What made your session different was the presence of all those beautiful sounds — and your voice. They gave me something to focus on, and really helped quiet the thoughts that usually pull me away. It was a very grounding experience."

    Raquel, Saudi Arabia

  • "Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful and relaxing experience with us—it was my first time, and truly unforgettable. It’s hard to put into words what I felt in that moment. It was as if the spirit of the music—your voice, your songs, and the gong sounds—moved through my body and soul, bringing deep relaxation and joy. At one point, I even drifted into sleep, which felt so comforting and peaceful. The session left me with a calm mind and an open heart, both during and afterwards. I’m happy for these moments to be shared with others—thank you once again to you and the whole group."

    Sherwin, Saudi Arabia

  • “The sound journey was such a wonderful experience. It left me feeling deeply grounded and centered, while also opening me up to a beautiful spiritual connection. Truly a powerful and uplifting experience.“

    Ruvini, Saudi Arabia

  • “I had the most amazing experience it was wonderful. I will be honest I battled in the beginning to relax my mind was on the go and very busy. I did eventually relax. I would love to do another session or do them more frequently to learn how to get the best out of it.”

    Adel, Saudi Arabia
