Frederico De Deus: Finding My True North

Have you ever felt like you were living someone else's life? Like you were playing a role, fulfilling expectations, but your heart was somewhere else entirely? That's where I found myself years ago. I had a stable job, a seemingly successful career, but inside, I felt a profound disconnect. I was living a life dictated by societal and familial pressures, not by my own true desires. It was a slow, quiet ache, a nagging feeling that something was missing.

This discomfort, this yearning for authenticity, became the catalyst for my journey. It wasn't a sudden epiphany, but a gradual awakening. I began exploring different avenues of self-discovery, searching for tools and practices that could help me reconnect with my true self. I delved into radiesthesia, seeking to understand the energetic currents that flowed through me. Reiki became a powerful ally, helping me heal not only my relationship with my father but, more importantly, the fractured relationship with myself.

Those early explorations were like breadcrumbs on a path I didn't yet fully understand. They led me to Buenos Aires, a city that became a crucible of transformation. It was there, amidst the vibrant energy and rich culture, that I truly began to shed the layers of expectation and embrace my own individuality. I deepened my Reiki practice, learning to integrate its healing power with the art of massage. I immersed myself in the world of plants and their potent medicine, exploring the ancient traditions of shamanic sahumos. I even became a certified personal trainer, recognizing the crucial link between physical and spiritual well-being.

Buenos Aires wasn't just about holistic practices, though. It was also about life. It was about building deep friendships, sharing life with a great partner and his family, experiencing the joy and also no joy of my first dog, Valentina, and working with an incredible psychologist who guided me further on my journey of self-discovery. It was a time of growth, exploration, joy, love, freedom and also cry, frustration, sad and awaking.

While I explored various paths, including my existing career in IT, digital marketing, and even fashion photography, my heart kept pulling me towards something deeper. In 2022, I reached a turning point. I realized that I could no longer ignore the call of my soul. I made a conscious decision to always follow my heart and to dedicate myself to the work that truly ignited my passion: holistic therapy.

I embarked on an intensive study of massage, discovering a profound connection to the human body and its capacity for healing. I explored relaxation massage, then ventured into the intimate world of tantra, tantric massage, couple's massage, and sacred intimacy. I sought out and studied with renowned teachers from around the globe – individuals like Tayler Johnson, Barbara Carrellas, Freyah Mariah, and Andrea de Bodhi – absorbing their wisdom and refining my skills.

In 2024, I felt a clear and undeniable pull to focus my massage practice on men creating  HEM - Holistic Experiences for Men by Frederico De Deus. I understand the unique pressures and challenges men face in today's world, and I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for them to explore their inner selves, release emotional blockages, and reconnect with their authentic power.

However healing energy modalities like Kundalini Activation and Reiki is an practice open to all people. 

My journey is ongoing. I also became a certified Kundalini Activation Facilitator through the Integrative Energy School, KA is an potential energy healing condition that can open you to a profound transformation. I am constantly learning, evolving, and expanding my knowledge, driven by a deep desire to help others on their own paths of healing and self-discovery.

This isn't just a job for me. It's a calling. It's about helping you connect with your true north, the place inside you where your authentic self resides. If you're ready to embark on your own journey of self-discovery, I invite you to connect with me. Let's explore together.
