I am an enthusiastic forest guide and a seasoned expert in my domain, holding official certification from Peter Wohlleben's Waldakademie. Juggling the roles of a devoted single mother of two and a qualified educator since 2003, I possess a distinct affinity for oriental philosophies and spiritual practices.

My fascination with oriental philosophy and spirituality was ignited during a transformative journey to Japan at the tender age of 19, where I encountered the profound principles of Shintoism.

My commitment to holistic wellness extends to comprehensive studies in Chinese medicine, along with two decades of dedicated practice in Tai-chi and Qi-gong. Adding to my skills, I have engaged in Eurythmy and Meditation in my training years.

Between work, studies and motherhood, I experienced burnout in 2016. Fortunately,  I regained balance with heavy practice of reconnexion to self. This led me to perform another certification as a "facial yoga" instructor in 2017, with Fumiko Takatsu.

As anyone in this situation would, I had to turn inwards to positive childhood memories. I totally rediscovered my roots and deeply reconnected with the educational foundation I received at the renowned "Waldorf" school founded by the eminent German philosopher Rudolf Steiner. His educational principles are deeply rooted within nature's rhythms.

During this phase, I discovered the practice of Forest Bathing as a incredibly powerful tool for guiding others towards profound life changes.

​

I then successfully implemented the practice for clients since 2019. Feel free to reach out for more information!
