About Nando

Fernando "Nando" Ausin Gómez stands at the intersection of two worlds most people treat as separate: the world of institutions, strategy, and systems — and the world of healing, ancestral wisdom, and the living body.

Rooted in Amatlán de Quetzalcóatl, one of the most sacred valleys in Mesoamerica, Nando studied Latin American Politics at Dartmouth College and the Tuck School of Business before spending two years at Accenture advising multinational corporations and U.S. federal institutions. He was good at that work. But he knew it wasn't why he was here.

What followed was a two-decade commitment to something harder to quantify — and far more lasting. As co-founder of BioTU and the New Dawn Institute, he has led initiatives across Mexico, the United States, and Europe that connect urgent global challenges with community-rooted solutions: bioregional sustainability centers, international education programs, eco-hospitality projects, and public-private partnerships in service of regenerating land, people, and ecosystems. He has co-authored four books, produced several short documentaries, and continues to collaborate with programs at Dartmouth College.

Alongside all of it, he spent years in relationship with indigenous elders from dozens of traditions across Mexico and the United States — not studying them, but learning from them. That lineage of living knowledge is the foundation of his healing practice, which he weaves together with Applied Kinesiology, Medical Biomagnetism, Transformational Breathwork, and Neuro-Biochemical Balancing. The result is work that honors both the precision of the body and the mystery of what animates it.

People come to Nando when they've tried other things. When something is off and they can't name it. When they're ready for work that goes beneath the surface.

His conviction: healing is not the absence of disease. It is the full expression of what you are.

If something in you is ready to come back to life, you're in the right place.
