What is holding you back is what you are holding onto.
~ Zen teaching.

I came across this saying recently and it moved me deeply. And in my experience this is so accurate. I often witness this notion of stuckness and facing an oftentimes huuuge block in my work, in the people in my life and also in myself. There are these moments that feel like a brick wall that we can't get past or this steep mountain we cannot reach the top of.

Oftentimes this is us clinging quite desperately onto a part and version of us we have now outgrown, but we are not wholly ready to let go of, yet. Because what we know can feel much more safe, even if it has become more limiting than freeing. Change can be hard, feeling and inspiring all at once and there is no one fits all recipe to get through it. If you are reading this and it resonates, let this be your reminder that you have got this and that outgrowing past versions of self is a natural and necessary process in life and it often feels worse before it feels better. When in doubt, the Earth is pur greatest guide. She changes without any rush and hestitation, but still achieves everything 💫💛

💫💫 Take the path you have been scared to follow. 💫💫 Let this be your reminder to do just that today.

An invitation to embrace yourself + to celebrate the wisdom and stillness of deep winter. Shadow and light. To welcome it all. To envision 2025 with clarity and groundedness. 💫💫💫💫💫💫💫

Life initiations, new beginnings and meeting yourself where you are.

Time literally flies. I haven't been really active on here for the longest time. Life was incredibly busy, exciting, exhausting, fun, challenging and everything in between for the last two years. We had to grow into a family of three, and now four with our dog Fine joining the family as well. I had to meet and grow into a new version of me after having my daughter two and a half years ago and to re-align my values accordingly and to see what my work is going to look like from here on. Things have surely changed, because I have changed quite a bit. I have spent the last years really getting into the roots, shadows and medicine of my why and how and have continued to work with clients away from social media.

BUT I am excited to ease back into this space more regularly now and to take you on a part of my journey with me, if you like. If you are still here and following me, thank you for sticking around. I deeply appreciate it 💛 I am looking forward to connecting more with some of you over the next few months. Sending much love!

An invitation to retreat in a virtual ceremony on the 11th of August at 8pm CEST. The session will last for about 90 minutes. A recording will be provided whether you attend live or not.

Join me for an embodied experience of shedding, deep clarity and strong intention. Retreat into a clear mind + open heart through ritual, breath work, shamanic journey and community. Honor yourself and your process in community this season. The intention for this ceremony is to be completely grounded + still within yourself and in community. And to be with all THAT IS right now.

All are welcome for this circle. The exchange for this session is 33 Euros. DM me to book or sign up via the link in my profile. Please contact me with any questions about content modalities or attendance. Please note there are no refunds for this class.

💫A deep dive within. You are your own light, you are the oracle.💫

Join me on the night of this year's winter solstice for a virtual gathering to ignite your own spark of JOY, CLARITY and HEART WISDOM during the dark season and to celebrate and welcome back the returning light in the northern hemisphere with an evening of ritual, intentional breathwork, shamanic journey and community.

Attune to your dreams, wishes, desires and needs with the power and the hope of the returning light.

The winter solstice marks the beginning of the rough nights, the most magical time of year - if you ask me. With it comes a thinning of the veil between the worlds. Between the seen and unseen, the conscious and unconscious. It is a time of deep reflection, inner guidance, release, intention, magic and soul seeking. A time that is all about becoming STILL and to make space to listen to the whispers of your own soul. A time of turning inwards and of just BEING. A time of envisioning yourself in 2023. What are your wishes dreams and desires for the new year? What are your needs and hopes? This might be a good place to start.

With everything going on in the world and a little baby keeping me on my tows 24/7, I am craving simple, straight forward and accessible practices that make me feel connected to my core and that ground me deeply in my being. And this evening's intention will be just that.

We will be gathering virtually via Zoom on the 21st of December at 8pm CEST for about 90 minutes. This circle will be donation based, my usual group exchange is 22 Euros and I will send out a donation link once you have booked as well as an Email with all details a day before the ceremony 💫 Just DM me to safe your space.💫 I feel called to not offer a recording for this ceremony to keep it as initmate as possible. There is no prior knowledge of any kind necessary and all are welcome to join.

This deeply spoke to me today..


We must be willing letting go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us. - Joseph Campbell

~Triggers as a space for healing~

Triggers can be a space of transformation + healing with the right resources.

Triggers aren't a sign that something is wrong with you, but they are a gentle reminder to look a little closer. Lovingly + gently and taking your time to respond in a different way. They are a reminder of where you might need some healing and some extra love and attention. At least that is what triggers mean to me. We all are unique and so are our paths to healing.

Healing often requires much awareness + even more courage. I really felt that this week. It can be so hard to not only face your wounds + core beliefs, but to also be courageous enough to change + release them, not only from your mind, but also from your body + soul too.

This week I had to face one of my worst fears and I was immensely triggered. After having experienced some major traumatic events in hospitals before, I had to stay in a hospital for 2 nights without any visits allowed in the middle of a pandemic. I didn't trust the situation and process + I was frustrated with how my body was reacting, being all wired up and my heart pumping throughout the entire first day. Every time they took my blood pleasure + it was pretty high, I felt helpless and like my body was having a party without me. I knew that I didn't feel safe, but even with all the tools in my tool box, I didn't trust myself in this process somehow. After a little while and lots of conscious breathing and of honestly feeling quite desperate, I realized that this was a chance for me to welcome a different way of being + reacting. It sounds simple, when it really wasn't, but I guess I just arrived at this point somehow, where I just wanted to feel different and not like a victim to some past experiences anymore. So I just gave surrendering to the wisdom of my body a big shot. Trusting that it always knows best. It was really hard, although I know this to be true and also telling my clients about it all the time.. And what can I tell you, my body finally calmed down and re-balanced itself. It showed me that I can really trust it after all + that it's never to late to re-write your story.

With love, Dani

~Trust~

Just trust yourself, then you will know how to live. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

It can often seem so hard to trust - most of all yourself, your abilities, choices, your next step. Trust in yourself or any kind of relationship is a process of lots of little steps over time that make you believe that YOU CAN. ⭐What does your next little or big step look like + how does it feel in your body? ⭐

OSTARA + HUMAN DESIGN EVENING RETREAT


A SPACE FOR BECOMING


and I are super excited to announce our second virtual live event on our travel through the wheel of the year. And we are welcoming the amazing Human Design expert and astrologer to join us for our celebration of the spring equinox. ✨ Join us on Saturday 20th of March from 8-11 pm CEST for a magical evening of exploration and self discovery.

✨ Discover Your Human Design with Stacey: Your unique aura type, authority + strategy

✨ Understand how to harness the uniqueness of your energy type

✨ Closing ritual

Are you asking yourself WHAT IS HUMAN DESIGN?
⭐ Imagine a system that explains how you were built, and how to best respond to the world around you - it's much like a combination between astrology, Enneagram and Myers-Briggs. Human design shows you how how your unique energy works and how to access your intuition + your innate decision making compass in a way that is easy and flowing. It is a tool that offers a map and manual on how to live and thrive as your true self. When we start to live in alignment with who we really are, so many things start to fall into place and we understand so much more how we are meant to be in this world. Human design guides you into accepting yourself and your ways of being and doing rather then continuing to chase who we are not.

~Boundaries~

The clearer you are with yourself, the clearer you can be with others.

Boundaries are a vital part of developing an identity + a sense of self. They are also essential pillars of our wellbeing and mental health. By definition a boundary is a space or limit between you + another person - that is best filled with love + respect for you and the other person :)

The purpose of setting up boundaries is in essence to take good care of yourself and they are a great tool to manage your energy. They are something like your very own exchange rate, as individual as yourself!

If you are feeling a little more overwhelmed, fatigued and irritated, maybe also more angry than usual, it's probably partly due to a global pandemic still keeping us in it's grip, BUT it might also be worth having a look at your personal boundaries too. It's often harder to establish healthy + physical boundaries right now with many of us still in lockdown, but we can always do something about our energetic boundaries. Here are some things to consider :
~Know + honor your energy and limits (Check in with yourself often by asking 'What do I feel? What do I need? And what do I want?')
~It's OK to be blunt about your needs. No need to sugarcoat anything.
~Make checking in with yourself a habit.
~Honor your time + timing, you don't have to react to sth straight away, but you can take your time to respond. Don't be rushed.
~Give yourself the permission to say NO. Saying no can actually feel like the most loving word in your repertoire! You may want to practice saying no in different ways and see how the different varieties feel in your body..

With much love,
Dani

What are your GLIMMERS?

Yes, you read that right.. what are your glimmers - meaning what lights you up every day, gives you joy, replenishes your energy and makes you feel vibrant + alive? What never misses to put a smile on your face and instantly gets you into a better mood while you are going through the different motions?

Glimmers are the opposite of triggers and while it's also important to become aware of those, making space for your glimmers every day is really a non-negotiable - especially when you are wanting to establish everyday routines and rituals that lift you up and ground you at the same time.

You can't sustainably pour from am empty cup, so knowing your glimmers and building them into your day really is one of the most essential wellbeing tools out there.. Your glimmers can become super strong anchors that you can weave into your life and being and that will never ever seize to support + amaze you.

What are your glimmers? I would love to know 🤩🤩
