  Jan, 2010 - Sep, 20199 years 8 months

  Since school, psychology, yoga, and the philosophies of Buddhism have been my sources for stress management, mindfulness, self-confidence, strength, and wisdom in terms of personal development and knowledge about myself and my environment. I use Yoga to help my clients start breathing, grounding, recognising limitations while continually expand them, and sometimes simply to be patient & letting go. In my opinion, if you understand yourself well, it is also easier to understand and appreciate others. Traditional (Asian) Medicine states, that every person is unique and therefore everyone needs something different to become and live the best version of themselves. Like this, we can live a sustainable life and have a positive impact to our environment. To deepen and pass on this knowledge, I completed several training in Yoga, Ayurveda, mindfulness practice, and body therapy and participated in various projects andtrainings, offering courses and workshops, and also educated myself in business management and marketing.

  I love stepping into the unknown, discovering new worlds and proof to myself that i can survive successfully in any foreign environment. Learning to grow beyond one's own limit, even in difficult and challenging situations, and also, how to fail.
