A Personal Note from Valarie Budayr
Hello, I'm glad you’re here. As a sound healer, breathwork practitioner, labyrinth travel, and Human Design facilitator, I believe that growth happens when we remember who we are beneath the noise, habits, and stories that no longer serve us. Through my work as founder and practitioner at Mongata, I help people reconnect with themselves and the rhythms of the natural world.
This space is a reflection of that work and a place for me to write and express other creative ideas and endeavors. I invite you to explore, learn, and begin your own creative journey with me.

Travel With Valarie
Creative Compassion through the Labyrinth
Valarie is a Labyrinth Facilitator. Travel with her to Gotland, Sweden, June 14-20, 2026. This retreat is a celebration of midsummer magic, where the ancient labyrinths of Gotland become pathways to unlock your creative potential. Through reflective walks, artistic exploration, and meaningful rituals, you’ll discover how the labyrinth can inspire new perspectives and awaken your symbolic imagination.
We'll visit inspiring art studios, savor the beauty of Swedish midsummer traditions, and find the keys to the transformative power of art. Each day offers a unique blend of exploration, creativity, and connection, designed to nurture your spirit and ignite your imagination.
“Valarie’s kind and gentle way of sharing and guiding are like a balm for the soul during a time of great stress and uncertainty.”
