Originally from Germany, I live in Cape Town with my husband Richard and our 15-year-old son Jesse.
My biggest journey has been to come home to myself and my body, in the midst of infertility, stress, Hashimoto’s, gut issues and menopause… connecting with myself, my own innate wisdom and with nature, mainly through the ancient feminine wisdom & self-care of Ayurveda.
I have always had an interest in health and healthy living. I first came across Ayurveda when on a sabbatical in 2007, where it helped me to make a pivotal decision and ultimately led to me having my son today…
Then Ayurveda crossed my path again when a dear friend gifted me a panchakarma at the beautiful Sitaram Beach Retreat in India/Kerala for my 50th birthday. That’s when the wisdom really sunk in, and I felt the benefits!!
I began to study Ayurveda in earnest with Nidhi Pandya, followed by a 2 year intensive course with Katy Silcox and the Shakti School.
I was certified as an Ayurvedic Wellness Coach in 2022, and since then I’ve been assisting my clients to find balance and wellness in their lives.
I encourage my clients to remember their innate wisdom, which resides within all of us. Through deep listening, we learn not to override the natural cues of our bodies. Not hearing these whispers is often where dis-ease can start setting in.
We work together with all our aspects (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) to gain a more holistic wellbeing.
Much can happen and arise simply through giving attention and energy to any imbalance or issues which are present.
I aim to empower and ignite curiosity, so together we can delve deeper into the root causes of our issues, which are woven into the tapestry of our lived life story…
Through subtle lifestyle changes, which I are fine tuned for the unique constitution of each client, we create a beautiful balanced and self empowered way of life.
