ABOUT ISABEL BARROS

I’m a researcher, movement guide, and founder working at the intersection of technology, consciousness, and the nervous system.With an MA in Psychological Research (cardiovascular psychophysiology), I’ve led and supported studies on HRV, attention bias, VR mindfulness, and dream content—designing digital interventions that help people shift out of threat and into regulation. Alongside this, I’ve spent over a decade teaching yoga, somatics, and mindfulness across hospitals, corporate wellness programs, fitness centers, disaster-response settings, and memory care communities.Through Is Be Wonders, Inc, I build experiences and ecosystems that translate complex science into felt change:Hosting Biohacking Wonder, a podcast exploring tech + consciousnessProducing Developing Physical Intelligence, a show on somatic nervous system rewiring and aging wellCreating tools like DreamGirlArt.AI and Dancing With the Trickster, supporting dreamwork and non-ordinary state integrationFacilitating somatic coaching and nervous-system education rooted in polyvagal theoryWhether I’m guiding a 5:30 AM group class, supporting clinicians at Johns Hopkins, responding to communities after disasters, or collaborating with tech teams on VR and biofeedback, my through-line is the same:help people feel safer in their bodies, clearer in their minds, and more connected to their own inner guidance.If you’re building something at the edge of wellness, recovery, movement, or consciousness tech, I love collaborating on programs, research, and experiences that are both scientifically grounded and soul-centered.
