Our values are
At Yaou Yaou Wellness, we empower people to take control of their lives and grow by deepening their understanding of their actions, decisions, thoughts, and more, guided by our 3 main values below:
CULTURAL RESILIENCE
We aim to preserve the healing traditions of our African, Amazonian, and Caribbean ancestors through education, community-led programs, tribal partnerships, and safe spaces for transformation.
SELF-MASTERY
The philosophy of the Bwiti tradition is simple, it is to study life and master the self. Our elders have taught us that the purpose of life is to enjoy it. Having a healthy relationship with ourselves, our community, and our environment is essential to this mission.
SAFETY
All of our healing modalities have been vetted and approved by a team of medical and traditional doctors, as well as, experts in family medicine, emergency medicine, and psychology.
