Speaking · Daria Vodopianova & Barak Yaari

Your audience has heard enough talks. Give them a session they feel.

We are the two-voice duo behind the Identity Installation Method: breath, guided trance and story, live on your stage. The whole room drops in together, seated and safe, and comes back carrying something it can keep.

Why two voices

One voice runs the process. The other holds the room.

Group work at this depth usually stays small, because one facilitator cannot guide a process and watch a crowd at the same time. The two-person structure is what lets it scale. Barak guides the trance and the breath while Daria tracks the room, reads the energy, and holds the container. That is what makes a session of this depth safe for a full hall.

It also performs. Two voices trading the stage hold attention in a way a single presenter cannot, and your audience gets two different doors into the same work.

Signature sessions

Pick the depth. We fit your slot.

Keynote · 20 to 30 minutes

The Identity You Rehearse

The identity you rehearse is the life you get.

A talk with a short guided activation inside it. The audience does not watch a demonstration. They do the rehearsal themselves, seated, eyes closed, a few minutes long, and they carry the state back into the program with them.

Best for: Main stages, idea-driven slots, conference programs.

Breathwork · 60 to 75 minutes

Dragon Breath Activation

Three rounds of breath. The whole room lit.

The breathwork method we developed to move a crowd out of thinking and into the body fast. High energy, no equipment, no experience needed. Built for mornings, works at any hour.

Best for: Festival mornings, energiser slots, opening ceremonies.

The capstone · 2 to 3 hours

Identity Installation Night

The room rehearses who it is becoming. Then keeps it.

Breath first, then a long guided trance where each person meets a specific, chosen version of themselves, then integration. Everyone stays seated. Nothing is asked of anyone in front of anyone else. We ran it for 44 people at Grand Hotel Millennium Sofia in July 2026, and for 40 in Bansko the same month.

Best for: Evening programs, retreats, curated rooms.

Workshop · about 2 hours

Own Your Pleasure, with Self-Hypnosis

Pleasure conditioning meets self-hypnosis.

Our own format pairing pleasure conditioning with self-hypnosis, co-led by both of us. Made for rooms already fluent in embodiment work, and it goes deeper than they expect.

Best for: Tantra and sexuality-positive festivals, women's programs.

Music-carried trance · flexible set length

DJ Hypnobear · a live sound journey

Barak sings, plays piano and mixes live soundtracks into deep trance work. A guided journey carried by live music: the bridge between a music stage and a wellness stage.

Best for: Sound and downtempo festivals, consciousness gatherings, night programs.

What people say on their way out.

Barak's voice guides you through the sessions, it's 150% immersion. Just give it a yes.Stephanie · Germany · Identity Installation night

I felt very vulnerable after the exercises, very open to receiving more, and it gave me joy. Definitely come and join, because it might change your life.Julie · Belgium · Art of Receiving

Identity is really the key to change, self-identity. When I read the title I was immediately, okay, sign me up. Listen to your gut feeling and not to your mind. Not to your Minister of Defense.

Cihan, Identity Installation night participant.

Cihan · Identity Installation night

We just did it for two hours, and I cannot imagine how much transformational change you can experience. What are you gonna lose?

Yeji, Identity Installation night participant.

Yeji · Identity Installation night

It was amazing to receive, especially because usually I'm a giver. It was beautiful, and surprising, to be seen by others.

Josef, Art of Receiving participant.

Josef · Art of Receiving

It was easier to give than to receive. You start feeling something you don't feel normally.

Andrea, Art of Receiving participant.

Andrea · Art of Receiving

One of the best experiences of my life, for sure.

For organizers

Deep work on stage, zero drama for your team.

Nobody is put on the spot

Everyone stays seated, eyes closed. There is no volunteer moment and no sharing circle anyone has to survive.

Run with care, closed with care

Deep formats run with a short written waiver, and every session ends with a deliberate, guided return before people stand up.

The lightest rider you will read this year

Two microphones and a room that can sit undisturbed. We bring nothing that needs rigging. Low light helps, and is not required.

Your theme, your language

We shape every session to your room, your theme and your slot. Full ceremony language where the room wants it, or the same depth as guided visualisation and applied neuroscience where it does not.

We bring our audience with us

We announce every appearance to our mailing list and social channels, so booking us also promotes your event.
