Meet Your Hosts

Meet Brigmary Thomas, founder of Hygge Massage and Hygge Retreat.

As a skilled massage therapist and a dedicated wellness space designer, I've partnered with my colleague, Nahir, to create a sanctuary where relaxation meets healing for life-changing experiences. My role involves much more than delivering exceptional massage therapy; I spearhead wellness retreats incorporating Ayurveda, Yoga, and holistic healing practices. Handling all aspects of administration and organization, I ensure every experience resonates with balance, harmony, and connection to self and nature. With technical proficiency, deep empathy, and a strategic outlook, I am committed to enhancing the well-being of those on a quest for inner peace and physical rejuvenation. Join us in this beautifully curated journey of well-being and self-discovery.

Meet Nahir Galiano, founder of Alma and a multifaceted healer.

As an Ayurveda therapist, a 300-RYT and YACEP-certified Yoga Teacher, a Medicinal Plants Advisor, and a Tantra facilitator in training from Argentina, I have shared my expertise across the globe—in Yoga Teacher Trainings, retreats, and Ayurveda centers. Beyond my professional pursuits, I am passionate about vibrant colors and patterns, embodying the joy and richness of life. My time outside the studio is spent traveling or camping in the embrace of nature, always accompanied by medicinal plants to aid those in need. My healing practices extend to Bhakti Yoga, Kirtans, acrobatics, dancing, and singing with full-hearted enthusiasm—vital forms of medicine that bring joy and vitality to myself and others. I believe in the importance of experiencing life with all of your soul. Join me in embracing a more colorful, healthful, and spirited life.
