What if the key to your freedom lies not in yourself - but in your family?

What if the key to your freedom lies not in yourself - but in your family? Last week I gave supervised family constellations for constellators-in-waiting. And the following day I gave a constellation morning with questioners and representatives. Two very different groups, two very different contexts - and yet one common theme that emerges every time. Honoring [...]
A warm healing bath

What happens when you no longer leave yourself Sometimes life invites you to re-face pieces you thought you knew. Not because you have failed. But because they are ready to be felt through at a deeper layer. Over the past few months, such an old theme kept coming up [...].
Reaching out and retreating - an ancient life movement

In this blog, I will take you through my personal therapeutic process. Sometimes it seems like life challenges me to explore the same thing over and over again. During a recent Hakomi practice session with Alex, the theme came into sharp focus again: the movement between reaching out and retreating. Two parts in me.One that wants to move forward. One that wants to show itself. [...]
Symbiosis and autonomy - an inner back-and-forth movement

In this blog, I will take you through my personal therapeutic process. As a body-oriented therapist, I work with others every day around patterns, trauma and inner freedom - but I too remain on the journey.

I want to take you on my inner journey in which I turned deep within, encountered old patterns and [...]

My 20-Year Journey at Aumm Twenty years ago, I was at a crossroads in my life. I had been pushing myself away for years, stuck in destructive patterns and no longer knew who I was or what I wanted. That's when Barbara (Yasha) pointed me in the direction of the Aumm Institute. An introductory workshop changed everything. This is what [...]
From disappointment to insight

A while ago, I applied to a reputable training institute as a freelance teacher. The job interview went great. I felt comfortable, we had a valuable exchange and I really felt good about it. Recently, however, I received their decision: I was not selected. They valued me as a person and found the interview [...].

These reactions can range from joy and excitement to sadness and anger. But sometimes there are also triggers, which overwhelm us and throw us off balance [...].
Discover your true nature and break your patterns ๐ฟ

Do you recognize this? You react from old patterns that you don't really want to repeat. You notice that you sometimes copy the behavior of, for example, your mother, father or other important figures from your past. Patterns that no longer serve you, but that you keep getting stuck in. This also happened with Gerda and me. Let me take a [...]
