Sandira Belia

In service to the Earth, I am an intuition coach and a guide in communication with the Living world. I am passionate about the intuitive arts, energy mechanics and the teachings of the Deva* of the honeybees.

Born in Brittany to a beekeeper mother, I was immersed in the song of the bees from childhood. Often seen by others as an unusual, somewhat otherworldly child, I realised early on that I would never fit into the boxes conventional society had to offer.

From adolescence, I longed to travel the world to understand this planet, to meet its human and non-human inhabitants, and also… to meet myself.

I trained in environmental education, then in heritage interpretation. This training led me through many “bridge professions”, in which I was able to explore, across a wide range of fields, the essence of what I call “creating connection”.

* I use the word “Deva” for the collective intelligences of animals, plants and minerals.

My curiosity about shamanism arises early, when I spend several months with the Innu, an Indigenous community in northern Quebec, on a project to enhance their cultural and natural heritage.

At 23, I travel through Central America, partly by hitchhiking, working in exchange for food and shelter while discovering diverse communities and traditions.

Back in France, I discover geobiology, the science of subtle energies that can be perceived through clairsentience. This is where I begin to develop my subtle senses.

Drawn once again to explore the extremes, I spend several extended periods in the Amazon rainforest. There, I dive into the world of medicine plants and befriend several shamans. I volunteer in the gardens of an ayahuasca centre, and this master plant becomes my main teacher for two years.

Then Portugal calls me, and I spend five years in the intentional community of Tamera (Peace Research Centre), where my journey with the bees begins.

Harvesting honey has never been my calling: my interest and joy lie in exploring respectful ways of relating to and co-creating with the bees.

I continue to train in various shamanic approaches, including a multi-year path with The Lyceum in the UK, a school specialising in bee shamanism.

Then life sends me an initiatory and transformative challenge: I fall ill. Very ill. For five years, fibromyalgia is both my worst nightmare and my greatest life lesson.

In the depths of this ordeal, reduced to skin and bone, I have serious conversations with death… Throughout these years, the honeybee is one of my closest allies, my muse and my healer.

My rebirth comes with the birth of my book, “Bee Wisdom: Teachings from the Hive“. Published in French in 2020, in English in 2021 and in German in 2025, it shares many of my conversations with the Deva of the honeybees, along with numerous anecdotes from my life alongside them.

I am now rooted in central Portugal, where I am preparing to build a passive house that honours the land in both its design and its spirit.

The heart of my work is now dedicated to intuition coaching. I guide sensitive souls to explore, develop and refine their intuitive abilities in grounded and practical ways, helping them awaken and embody their inner truth.

This guidance takes different forms: Intuition Coaching, Communicate With All That Lives, Intuitive Herbalism & Bee Communication, and The Hive Experience, a group journey guided by the wisdom of the hive.
