Being born into a world that is driven by money and mania of industrial growth, undermined by destructive behaviour towards ourselves and this beautiful planet that we are sharing with so many other precious beings—not being able to comprehend these destructive ways of interacting—I started questioning the way we operate as humans from a young age.
Stepping into my first yoga class in 2012 initiated a process of shedding the many layers of an image that I had created of myself. The beginning of an inward journey: a journey of becoming aware and unlearning at the same time. Likewise, an outward journey—from frantic Berlin city life, to one year living in an ashram, into nature.
My journey has been about freedom and peace from the beginning. Yoga and meditation became the tools that enabled me to look inward, to get to know myself and showed me that every transformation starts from within, that all healing comes from within and that all potential to initiate healing lies already in us.
So, the Heart of my work is to create spaces that allow us to enter within and meet our Self—our Wild Core.
CV
I am a certified teacher of Integral Yoga (BYV & Yoga Alliance). I did my teacher training in a Sivananda / Yoga Vidya ashram where I used to live and work for one year. I passed a Thai Yoga Massage & Californian Massage training. I am trained in non-violent communication and took part in various workshops and retreats concerning community building, natural farming and bodywork.
The most precious teachers to me are the trees, the plants, the sky, the waters and the animals. They don’t write out certificates though.
