About Me

Teaching is an everlasting passion for me. Even before getting engaged with the other, I've been my own teacher for many years. The whole subject of education, which for me means
transformation, that is to say, using constructive tools in order to overcome limitations and as means of building a more conscious life. The process of education is never finished though. We will always be susceptible to change. So, if we really want to mature and flourish as human beings, we have to shift our focus from the final goal and all the anxiety envolved and remain attentive to the quality of our being, which in scientific terms means the nervous system's response, when we approach any activity.

Yoga for everyone! (Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin Yoga and Meditation, Breathing Exercises)
Yoga, which I initially adopted as a treatment method following my herniated disc diagnosis, evolved into a practice for both my physical and mental well-being over time. By gaining a deeper understanding of the body through alignment and mindful observation during slow-paced flows, I discovered its incredible capabilities, opening up a whole new path in life. As you continue to practice, both mentally and physically, you become more attuned to the sensations and changes within your body and mind. This heightened mindfulness extends beyond yoga, positively impacting various aspects of your life. You’ll find yourself more composed and insightful not just during yoga sessions, but also in challenging situations at work, in personal relationships, or even in everyday frustrations like waiting for a parking spot. Embarking on this journey can bring about a calmer, more pleasant, and wiser version of yourself. If you're ready to start, I would be pleased to accompany you on this transformative path.

Meditation 2.0. by Shri Swami (an enlightened Master)
Back to the Self! Back Home. The guidance is provided by a Master who has walked the route to the Self himself. He knows the route. He has become the Self. The sessions are based on Eastern views, translated into contemporary language. He provides the participants with useful insights and tools, which are necessary as a means to go through this special inner path to the Self. The Self is the source of ultimate relaxation, joy and happiness. Everyone carries the Self with them, but they are not aware of it. The awareness and becoming of the Self is our common pursuit. Success depends on many personal factors of the participant. Swami is the manager of the Silent Garden in Bemelen (South Limburg) The first session will take place in the Silence Garden. After that, the sessions can take place online if necessary.
