𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗹𝘆, 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴.


In the past week, there have been several bizarre accidents in my circles. Thankfully, everyone came out okay, but these moments always bring a heightened sense of awareness—not just for them, but for me too. 


It’s during these times that we, as humans, are suddenly able to feel what truly matters in life: love, health, friends, family... This awareness often leads us to make life-changing decisions, like working less or shifting our focus to what truly counts.


This is exactly why I transformed my own life and career, becoming a Breath & Vitality coach. 


I want us all to become more aware of what's going on inside, so we can recognize and feel what we truly need. Only then can we clearly communicate our boundaries and relearn how to say "no."


Earlier this summer, I was at a birthday party where people were checking their "body battery" status on their watches. Wait, what? We now need watches to tell us that?  

Computers, smartwatches, smartphones... We’re handing everything over to technology, forgetting how we used to do things—and still can. We've lost touch with our bodies because we're giving ourselves away.


It’s okay to take a break and choose yourself. In fact, this is something more and more people around the world need.


Our breath is a natural tool for releasing, resolving, and healing deep traumas and emotional blockages.


But how do you start if you’re new to breathwork? 


No one is truly new to this. We've been breathing since birth. We've just ‘forgotten’ how to use our breath effectively.

Our body knows much better than our mind, yet we live in a society that operates mostly from the head.


The first steps are often the hardest because we don’t know where we’re going when we try something new. It’s scary—no control.


Letting go and trusting the process is fundamental, but nowadays it feels like an elevated art form, reserved for the most creative souls.


Learning to let go, trusting the next step, going back to basics, breathing, slowing down…

Reprogramming yourself—pause, breathe.


Of course, this feels terrifying at first, but through repetition, it becomes easier.

You can reprogram yourself every day by simply learning to press pause.


Individually, in pairs, in groups, or at work.


Interested in trying this with your team, company, partner, or just for yourself?


Now is the perfect time to hold onto that post-summer relaxation. Give yourself moments of rest, so that in times of stress or emotional overwhelm, you can reconnect with yourself more quickly.


Don’t wait—take control. Maybe you won’t feel a connection with me, and that’s okay. But I would be sad if you didn’t take any step at all.


Make that first move—you’ll be rewarded for it.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

Teams & companies

  • Do you also offer workshops for teams or companies?

    Yes. I guide team sessions and corporate workshops focused on breath, connection, and conscious leadership. These sessions support stress release, authentic communication and stronger collaboration. The purpose is to reconnect team members with their vitality, creativity and purpose at work.

    Especially in a work setting, since we spend a large part of our time there.

  • What does breathwork or awareness training bring a team?

    Breath and awareness sessions help people release tension, be more present and listen better. To themselves and to each other. The result: less stress, more focus and a more open way of working together. Teams don't just connect more deeply, they also perform better.

  • Is this suitable for every type of organisation?

    Yes. I work with a wide range of companies; from hotels to healthcare organisations and local governments. The content is always tailored to the context, the goal and the culture of the organisation. It isn't about spirituality, but about humanity and awareness in the workplace.

  • What does a session or workshop look like?

    That can range from an energizer or a short breath workshop during a team day to an in-depth awareness programme spanning several weeks. We combine breathing techniques, reflection, movement and experiential exercises. The approach is practical, playful and applicable in everyday work.

  • How long does a session last?

    That depends on the goal. A short session usually takes 60 to 90 minutes. Half a day or a full day leaves room to really go deeper. I'm happy to help shape a programme that fits the team's schedule and energy.

  • Isn't it too 'airy-fairy' for a business environment?

    No. The way I work is grounded, accessible, and always linked to scientific research, conscious leadership, communication, and vitality. People find it refreshing, not airy-fairy. It touches on something often missing in the office: genuine presence.

  • Can we also use this in leadership development?

    Certainly. Breathwork and awareness form a powerful basis for authentic leadership. It helps leaders act from calm and clarity, listen better and give direction with more confidence.

  • Do you also offer customised programmes?

    Yes. Together with the organisation, I design customised programmes. This can be for groups or individual employees. From one-time sessions and 1:1 programmes to themes like vitality, stress reduction, conscious leadership, or team connection.

  • What do we need in terms of space or preparation?

    A quiet room where people can sit or lie down comfortably is often enough. For larger groups or events I bring mats, blankets and materials myself. We discuss beforehand what is needed, so everything runs smoothly.

  • Can you also offer this online?

    Absolutely. For remote teams I offer online breath and reflection sessions. These are shorter and lighter in setup, but surprisingly effective for landing again and connecting together.

1:1 sessions

  • What exactly does a 1:1 session involve?

    A 1:1 session is completely tailored to where you are right now. I work with breath, awareness, movement and bodywork to release tension, find clarity and reconnect with what truly matters. Sometimes gentle and deepening, sometimes confronting, but always in a safe setting.

  • What does a programme look like if I want to work with you?

    We always start with an introduction (in person or online) to see what is needed. After that we build the programme up in phases towards, for example, 3, 5, 7 (or more) sessions, entirely tailored to your situation. The aim is to move towards lasting change; quick fixes don't exist.

General

  • Do I need experience with breathwork or personal development?

    No, not at all. All you need is curiosity and a willingness to be present. I guide you through the experience step by step, so you can relax and go deeper in a natural way.

  • What is the power of breathwork?

    Your breath is a direct gateway to awareness. By breathing consciously, you stimulate your self-healing ability, and thus your body's natural capacity to release tension, process emotions, and find clarity. Breathwork brings you out of your head, back into your body, and closer to your heart.

  • What happens during a cacao ceremony?

    Cacao gently opens the heart. Combined with breath, music and intention, a safe space arises to feel, connect and heal. It is not a “trippy” experience, but rather a conscious and warm moment of coming home to yourself and (if you wish) the group.

  • Is breathwork safe?

    Yes, when it is properly guided. I always make sure the setting is safe and check any medical or psychological considerations beforehand. Breathwork can go deep, so safety and integration are essential parts of the process. That is why you should always arrange an introductory conversation, with any coach, to sense how they feel to you and whether there is a click.

  • What if I find it hard to relax or get into my body?

    That is completely normal. Many people live from the head, simply because we live in a society that (unfortunately) encourages it. That is exactly why we use breathing, bodywork, movement, sound and music to slowly settle again. There is no right or wrong; the process unfolds by itself and is different for everyone.

  • Can you also contribute to festivals or events?

    Absolutely. I often collaborate with organisations to bring moments of awareness to festivals or other gatherings. Depending on your needs, this can be through breathwork, cacao ceremonies, or connecting workshops. Always focused on vitality, breathing, heart connection, and conscious enjoyment.
