Hi dearest, I am Astrid.

I am an eternal explorer of life.

Driven by curiosity, and a hunger for depth, I seek the hidden truths of the universe, traverse ancestral traditions, dwell in the depth of emotional embodiment, and witness the blossoming of inner transformation.

During a series of extremely hardcore awakenings in my life, I have, again and again, travelled through the underworld, witnessed and embodied the darkest emotions possible, dragged myself through mud and rot, finally to emerge at the surface - full of love, gratitude, and inspiration.

And so, I have bloomed into the role I was meant to inhabit. For it is my soul’s purpose to remind you of your inherent self healing abilities, and of your amazing emotional capacity!

As an adventurous, ever-expanding conscious being, sticking to one single perspective in my work and life, is simply not an option. Naturally, I am drawn to always dig deeper into the rabbit holes, continuously expanding my vision, challenging my perspectives, learning and UNlearning.

𓆙

Thus, in my work I move within a broad field, weaved together by elements from

  • Scientific biological wisdom: Epigenetics,

    German New Medicine, Trauma-oriented somatics.

  • Psychology: relational psychology, holistic psychology, shadow work, inner child work etc.

  • Nutrition.

  • Ancestral traditions: Yoga, Tantra, Shamanism, & TCM.

  • My life experiences. ‍ ‍

    ‍ ‍

Studies

The UNschooling; the passionate studying from intuition goes far beyond any of the certifications and degrees I have acquired. Self studies, self practices, and self experimentation from:

Trauma oriented psychology, psychoanalysis, relational psychology, shadow work/ inner child work, practices and philosophy from yoga/tantra/shamanic traditions, nutrition, German New Medicine, Epigenetics, Bioenergetics, Biomechanics, somatic therapies, dance, facia, natural medicine, TCM.
