Meet the person behind Alma Selva

Olivia, founder of Alma Selva

Hi, I'm Olivia, the person behind Alma Selva.

Alma Selva means soul of the forest — and it felt like the right name for something rooted in nature, stillness and coming back to yourself.

I came to this work the way most people do — not by looking for it, but by needing it.

It started with sound. I wandered into my first sound bath not really knowing what to expect, and left feeling something I hadn't felt in a long time — like I had put something down. From there I found circle, and for the first time I had a space to speak and be heard without advice, without fixing, without noise. Just presence. It was more valuable than I can put into words.

And then I found breathwork. And everything deepened.

What I have come to understand through my own journey is that so much of what we carry — stress, grief, old emotion, the weight of busy lives — doesn't need to be analysed. It just needs somewhere to go. Breath, sound and circle each offer that in their own way. A container to feel, to release, and to come back to yourself.

I am a trained breathwork facilitator certified in trauma informed breathwork, a trained sound healer, and a circle facilitator — each one a path I have walked myself before ever holding space for others. I am now based on the beautiful Costa Brava, where I work with clients in person and online — and where the nature, the light and the pace of life remind me every day why this work matters.

If any of this resonates, I would love to hear from you.
