“Manny’s teachings and Alise’s warmth and sense of creativity allowed a group of strangers to gel into an instant, caring community - to be able to trust and experience a deep sense of being.” - Louis B

“Sitting in Presence in a session with Manny and talking over the “stuff of life” is a gift. His perspective is grounded in his successful navigation of earthly life, and from this place he’s able to share and support the ways in which more flow and ease are possible. For all of us.” - M.T.

“Between the yoga practice, the music, and the breath work, I am extremely grounded and relaxed.  I have never experienced a breath work session like this, and it was truly transformational. I’m feeling grateful for this journey of the soul!'“ - Fran L.

“It is a profound and rare experience when you meet someone, that while they are speaking, everything vanishes around them and you can only see a silhouette full with a ray of pure light. That’s been my experience with Manny. Learning from the depth of his teachings, his personal life and mystical experiences, he touches and goes straight to the soul with the simplicity of just the right words, delivered from a place of authentic love and kindness.” -Carla Zaplana.

Manuel Jose Muros (Manny)

I am a mystic, transformational guide, author, and yogi. Born in La Habana, Cuba, I experienced a profound spiritual awakening in my mid-thirties, which completely transformed my life.

My focus is on helping students recognize and feel their connection to Source as they navigate the challenges of being human. I guide them in balancing the polarity of being spirit in human form, teaching them how to be grounded in both realities so they can express their soul’s work in this lifetime.

My personal awakening in my mid-thirties gave me firsthand experience of non-physical reality and living life from this perspective. With 30 years as a full-time student and practitioner of yoga, meditation, and wisdom teachings, and 17 years as the owner and spiritual director of a Yoga & Meditation Center, I have nurtured and guided countless students on their transformational journeys.

I am the author of three books on human development and our divine nature: "The Other Side of Me," "The Mind Overlay," and "The Oneness Within." I also created the integrated curriculum of "The Mind Overlay Spiritual Development Program," which blends wisdom teachings from various traditions with my own direct experiences.

My background in science (pharmacology) and business (MBA), along with my real-life experiences of success and challenges prior to shifting to a spiritual life, serve as a solid foundation for my work.

Since my early childhood, I have known that there was more to life than meets the eye. I have always been intrigued by how life works, and the larger reasons for being. My life’s purpose became the study, practice, and teaching of spiritual practices that lead to self-awareness and self realization. 

There are many roads leading to our own center and it is my deepest desire to help others to become free: to break away from the limitations we place on ourselves and others and to fully blossom into the beautiful and divine being waiting to come out.  Life is not simply meant to be endured - it can be a magical journey of exploration and celebration!
— Manny Muros

Alise Ashby

I am a British pianist, composer, and songwriter. My catalog spans the genres of cinematic, jazz, new age/ambient, and meditative instrumentals, as well as harmonically intelligent and infectious pop ballads, and tender, warm heart-centered love songs.

My multi-instrumental work has been featured in commercials and films, including at The Cannes Film Festival and on Sirius XM.

I am the creator of "The Inside Music Program," an incremental path of learning through improvisation. This creative platform guides students to listen, feel, and express freely by letting go of limitations in thoughts and beliefs, allowing them to blossom into their full potential through music and in life.

I have been on my own lifelong journey of transformation through music and self-exploration. When Manny and I came together, a great synergy unfolded, blending our soul's work. In addition to co-hosting with Manny, my music serves as the soundtrack to his meditations, workshops, and spiritual retreats.

It is my passionate intention to bring joy and help raise the collective vibration for positive change, amidst our challenging times.
