Daniela Carolina Moros Rojas

Daniela Moros is Venezuelan, a mother, and a meditator. She began practicing ten years ago, and three years ago completed her first vipassana retreat: ten days of silence, meditating more than twelve hours a day — the most intense and revealing experience of her life.

She had long believed meditation should be taught from early childhood, and for years shared the idea with teachers and friends without imagining she'd ever write something herself. That changed after her daughter was born: one day the idea came to write a story about meditation, and the words flowed with an inspiration she'd never felt before. That's how Yo puedo calmarme (I Can Calm Myself) was born.
