María Angélica Dávila is, without a doubt, the heart and driving force behind everything she creates—a woman who, with courage, coherence, and compassion, accompanies each person in reconnecting with their essence, blossoming from their dignity, and healing without breaking. A trained journalist with an international career—covering events such as the coup in Venezuela (1992), the violence in Colo
mbia, and the aftermath of 9/11 in the U.S.—María Angélica left her native Venezuela in 1997 and lived in nine different countries, allowing her to develop a global perspective on life. In 2008, she took a profound turn toward spirituality, immersing herself in a path of transformation that included training with renowned teachers like Eckhart Tolle, Joe Dispenza, Byron Katie, and Tony Robbins. It was then that she became certified as an advanced yoga instructor (RYT-500), as well as a practitioner of Reconnective Healing and Kundalini Energy facilitation. Founder, heart, and soul of Mangelda Retreats and Espiritualidad Expansiva
As a visionary leader, she founded Mangelda Retreats, a living space of transformation where she leads in-person experiences around the world. These retreats blend yoga, deep meditations, self-love rituals, dance (such as Qoya), conscious manifestation, and energy healing. From her base in Andorra, at the foot of the Pyrenees, she skillfully manages these gatherings in multiple languages. She also created the online community Espiritualidad Expansiva, where she offers monthly classes, masterclasses, ongoing support via Telegram, recorded resources, and a foundation of both scientific and channeled tools to support the soul’s awakening. María Angélica is the author of Awakening: The Art of Learning to Die, an autobiographical work infused with elements of magical realism and spirituality. Her storytelling explores personal trauma and ancestral healing, proposing conscious rebirth without suffering. Her readers describe her as a “Phoenix teacher” and a “voice of pure light and healing,” recognizing her bravery, sensitivity, and the depth of her story and teachings. Internationally certified as a yoga instructor (RYT-500), facilitator of Reconnective Healing, and Kundalini Energy practitioner, María Angélica integrates both ancient and modern practices—yoga, meditations, and channeling—to awaken love, inner trust, and a sense of worthiness in those she guides.
