Ultimately I believe that we, ourselves hold the keys and solutions to our own problems, but often they need help coming out. It is my aim to not only help you find these answers but also guide you how to find these answers in the future, so you do not become dependent on me, but on yourself. I do this by teaching several yogic practises and guiding people in my practice using, Reiki, energetic massage, yoga and coaching. All this needs from you, is 100% dedication to yourself and a willingness to look at whatever life presents for you in this moment.

In my containers we dive deep into your questions by combining both coaching and bodywork. I believe talking and therapy are important tools, but often the body holds on to so much more. When the talking is done and the mind has gotten insight, the body can still feel threatened and be triggered in various situations. This also holds the other way around, sometimes there are no physical indications anymore which can explain certain pain or discomfort, yet the pain it is still there.

Due to my own experiences with healing my body and how these aspects relate to my thoughts and patterns in my life, I am drawn to streams of thinking in which the body is seen as intricately connected to our emotions and thoughts and not as something separate, such as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and eastern element teachings. Solutions or ways to cope and manage certain problems or discomforts can sometimes be found either on the mental level or bodily level, but due to their connection often includes both. I therefore always combine both coaching and bodywork.

The coaching presents a starting point, asking out everything surrounding your physical, emotional or mental problem or question. This is a space where the difficult questions are asked, with love. Where we dive into the places that might feel uncomfortable, but often proof necessary to uncover what the problem really is about. This part of our session can give understanding and insights for the mind. It provides the underlying information after which work can be done with and on the body. The great thing of the bodywork, is that no talking is needed, your body does the talking and afterwards you can feel the effects of such a treatment in various areas of your life.
