The Science of Serenity

Behind Ileray is Zaida Marin, a designer and certified wellness professional whose work bridges neuroscience, nutrition, movement, and the living world. After years of studying how environments and daily habits shape human biology and behavior, Zaida founded Ileray to unite spatial neuroscience, biophilic design, Feng Shui–informed flow, and holistic wellness into one integrated approach to healing and transformation.

Her background spans interior design, construction, nutrition science, and personal training, giving her a rare perspective on how both the body and environment respond to light, material, energy, and lifestyle patterns. Through her certifications in Holistic Nutrition, Health & Wellness Coaching, and ACE Personal Training, she helps clients understand the connection between metabolism, hormones, nervous-system regulation, and the spaces they inhabit.

Zaida’s work reframes design as a form of nervous-system regulation and ecological harmony, and wellness as a form of self-design. Her philosophy blends spatial clarity with nourishment, movement with emotional grounding, and neuroscience with soft, intuitive living — crafting spaces and lifestyles that help people feel balanced, empowered, and deeply supported.
