I'm German and I moved to Spain at 36. Here I discovered a life in which my emotions began to take on importance. In Germany and in my family, emotions were a taboo subject. I adopted a different mindset than the square, rational, and organized German one.
I came from the world of photography and film. After a few years in Barcelona, I moved to Ibiza. I wanted a life more aligned with nature and other values.
But I still didn't know how to approach it. I worked in hotels as an entertainer and in a restaurant as a waitress. I felt empty; I wasn't passionate about the job, and my life was boring. There were a few years when I suffered from depression, lack of purpose, anxiety, and I became stressed easily.
One day, in the midst of an anxiety attack, I knew something had to change. I couldn't continue feeling trapped in a world that didn't fulfill me. So, I decided to open myself to the unknown and explore new ways of living and healing.
Looking for solutions to live a more joyful and passionate life, I tried various therapies.
Seeing how helpful they were, I felt this could be my path.
I studied Craniosacral Therapy, Metamorphic Technique, Intuitive Massage, the Grinberg Method, Reconnective Healing and Reconnection, Inside Dance, and regularly danced the 5 Rhythms.
Dance sparked my passion.
The results I saw in my clients taught me this could be my path.
When I finally discovered Alchemy of Breath's Connected Conscious Breathing, I realized that all the therapies I had learned so far fit into breathing, and thus, BREATHE INTO BEING was born. I already facilitated Connected Conscious Breathing with considerable success. Until…
…something came my way that derailed me: I decided to open a store selling yoga supplies, crystals, clothing, and various home decor products.
I thought the store would give me stability and satisfaction, but instead, it chained me. Every day was a reminder that I was heading in the wrong direction, and I felt desperate; I didn't know how to get out of it. Anxiety consumed me, and the passion I had discovered with breathing seemed like a distant echo.
Then, after 11 months, the pandemic hit, with its consequences for the store and my life. What I was experiencing caused me so much worry that it even caused me to have a serious car accident on the first day of lockdown.
Coming out of a curve, the steering wheel wasn't connected, I collided with another car and went 3 meters into the abyss. The impact was brutal, the metal creaked, time stopped, and in an instant, my world shattered. I woke up in a bed, physically broken, but certain that this was my turning point. I had no choice but to surrender, heal… and be reborn.
For me, it was a new opportunity to be reborn from a different place. Thanks to breathing, I began to feel alive; I was recovering physically and mentally. It was my life saver.
