Hi, I’m Ramona Zō Rayo.
Music was my first language. It’s the thread that has guided my path ever since.
20 years ago, Kundalini yoga opened a doorway into meditation, breath, and sound. It’s the path that became a lifelong devotion. I’ve taught internationally, held ceremony and created spaces that are grounding and transcendent.
Returning home to care for my father taught me the grace of life, death and transformation. The months immersed in his end-of-life care gave me the full spectrum of grief, love and joy. With his death came many losses, left me wide open for new opportunities and taught me a profound sense of humility in knowing that control is absolutely an illusion.
The birth of my son brought everything full circle and opened up a path of healing that is constantly evolving. My dad’s death & son’s birth inspired the name Akaal, meaning undying, reflects the endless lives within lives. Akaal represents the light within all of us that will never go out.
I honor the full spectrum of human experience: the raw ache of loss, the wild joy of remembering, the quiet, messy, honest moments in between. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to work with you in your most vulnerable moments. I’m grateful for the time we will share together.
My Approach
Deeply devotional, refreshingly down-to-earth.
My work is deeply devotional. Bodywork held in profound silence, Kundalini sessions led as full ceremonies, each experience intuitively crafted to guide you into presence, reflection and transformation. At the same time, I bring humor and lightness. I believe the closer we get to enlightenment, the more we can laugh at ourselves and a touch of wit can make anyone feel alive inside. Every session balances depth and play, creating a space that is both sacred and refreshingly human.
Trainings & Lineage
My work is rooted in over 15 years and 1,000+hrs of study, practice and direct experience within the healing arts. I’ve trained across both Eastern and Western modalities, allowing each session to meet the body with precision, intuition and depth.
Rather than relying on a single modality, my approach weaves these disciplines together. I create sessions that are responsive, intentional and entirely unique to you.
This work continues to evolve through lived experience, ongoing study and deep listening.
