and it has been a journey to get here.

For nearly two decades I have been on a path of healing, remembering, coming back home within.

I grew up on the edge of the Alps in beautiful Bavaria, surrounded by beautiful mountains, lakes, quaint villages and picturesque scenery. My inner landscapes, however, were often full of darkness and confusion that worsened for some time before I found the means to address it.

An unlikely job opportunity in my late twenties took me to the busy city scape of Hong Kong which acted as a catalyst for a long quest to come. The sheer intensity and contrast to my origins left me with nowhere to go but  within, as there was seemingly no escape without, surrounded by masses of people which would not allow for any sense of individuality in life.

Yoga found me in all forms; on the mat at first, as a way to detoxify my system from years of abusing and neglecting my own body. Soon, it became a way of life for many years to come. It helped me through a period of unrest after leaving the safety net of my job and somewhere to live behind. Years of travel to study with teachers and go deeper within followed.

For the last thirteen years, I have been living in Australia, and have found a beautiful Rainforest block on the Atherton Tablelands to call home. With the leading inspiration of my partner we have co-created a sanctuary for many butterflies, birds and lots of wildlife residents in the surrounding rainforest. We call it The Glade. Living with nature along with following the teachings of late spiritual master Barry Long has been a very grounding experience in what I call practical spirituality.

After working in the Aged Care system for some years I was shown the predicament of humanity in a different light. I cared for people with severe dementia, often as a result of unresolved trauma, and watched many people pass away without having a chance to lighten their load. Over the last three years, discovering somatic healing and shamanic energy medicine has brought this quest full circle. Engaging in shamanic healing in a modern context has been a catalyst for recognising ancient knowledge that has always been there, a coming home to a place within me I have always known but forgotten for long. A remembering of my soul. 

While there is an understanding that the way to self- knowledge is continuous, I am now more ready and able to serve you!
