Your Ancestors Led You Here

We help children of the diaspora remember— Through plants, ritual, ancestry and community.

Welcome to Yabisi.

If you've found your way here, I believe there is a reason.

Yabisi was born from my own journey of searching—for teachings and practices that reflected my Puerto Rican roots, for traditions that honored the wisdom of the African diaspora and for a relationship with the earth that felt both ancestral and alive. Along that path, I came to understand that healing isn't simply about fixing what is broken. It's about remembering what has always been ours: our relationship with the earth, our ancestors, our bodies and one another.

Today, Yabisi is an ecosystem of remembrance—a place where diasporic traditions, spiritual and clinical herbalism, Orisha cosmology, Puerto Rican Espiritismo, earth-based practices and community come together to support that journey. Whether you're taking your very first steps or returning to traditions you've known your whole life, you're welcome here.

There are many ways to walk this path.

You might begin with our free resources through YouTube, The Woo podcast, our newsletter or a community workshop. You may find yourself drawn to our essays on Substack, where we explore Orisha cosmology, herbalism, psychosomatics, ancestral healing and the intersection of tradition and everyday life.

Others connect through our Botánica, bringing handcrafted herbal medicines, flower essences, teas and ritual tools into their personal practice. Some join us inside the House of Remembrance, our growing membership library of classes, guided practices, healing resources and live monthly gatherings designed to support your ongoing spiritual journey. And for those called to immerse themselves more deeply, the School of Remembrance offers a year-long container for dedicated study, practice, mentorship and community.

There is no right place to begin.

Only the doorway that feels most alive for you.

My hope is that Yabisi becomes a place you return to throughout your life—a place to learn, heal, ask questions, deepen your practice and remember that these traditions are not relics of the past. They are living lineages that continue to nourish us today.

Wherever you're arriving from, and wherever your path leads next, we're honored to walk alongside you.

Welcome home.

There are many ways to begin

Every journey into remembrance looks different. Some people begin by listening. Others by reading. Some through the plants. Others through community. However you arrive, there is a path waiting for you.

What guides our work

At Yabisi...

We remember that healing was never meant to happen alone.

We honor plants as teachers, allies and keepers of ancient wisdom.

We trust that our ancestors continue to guide, protect and walk beside us.

We see remembrance as a lifelong practice of returning—to ourselves, to the earth and to one another.

We honor tradition as something living: rooted in lineage, nourished by community and embodied in everyday life.
