Mediation and Conflict Transformation

On this topic I consciously choose the wording of transformation vis a vis resolution which implies a problem, something that is wrong and only needs to be offered a magical solution to get back to where it was before; tranformation though as in giving another form to what is present offers the opportunities for growth, healing, self and collective realization and even deeper connection. Utilizing principles of non-violent communication and peacebuilding, we create a space where all voices are heard, and mutual understanding is fostered. These sessions are ideal for those looking to resolve interpersonal or group conflicts with empathy and compassion.

Personal Wisdom and Wellbeing Workshops

Embrace your wellbeing and deepen self-awareness through a range of uniquely designed workshop series to shed light on emotional resilience and personal expression. On this point, it is close to my heart to clarify that the term resilience is being used oftentimes in a technocratic and capitalistic way of working hard to get more and more resistent. I choose to work with it in a way that shines light on the environment and how you as a human have all capacities you need to create the balance you wish for in creating resilience in the out and inside. This work draws on my diverse background in psychology, anthropology, cultural studies, eco-community living and spiritual practice, offering a truly holistic and transformative experience.

Unique Aspects of This Offering:

~ Creative Expression for Healing: Use of art and bodywork as tools for exploring emotions and releasing tension.

~ Mindfulness and Embodiment: Combining traditional mindfulness techniques with innovative embodiment practices for holistic wellbeing.

~ Resilience Play: Developing skills to navigate life’s challenges with strength, grace, and emotional courage.

~ Traditional Wisdom: „The Roots of my Grandma’s Boots“ is one of the workshop series I love most: through connecting with the present, the past, our stories, values and traditions, we finetune into the wisdom that is already within and all around us.
