About me
I'm Katharina.
I love traveling, writing, yoga, and complaining about society. Here you find stories about my travels, healing journey, dreams, and our planet.
I was born in Germany, Fürth, and had a fantastic childhood with loving parents, who, like every other parent on this planet, passed on a lot of things to me, equally good and bad.
I was highly sensitive and intuitive as a child, which was brutally painful and one of the reasons why I got lost in escapism later on in life.
School was easy, maybe too easy, so I started to do all sorts of nonsense quite early. Fell in love with violent and abusive men, smoked, drank, took drugs and lost myself entirely in the process.
When I finished university in 2018, I went to travel the world alone. I needed a break. I booked a trip, firstly going to Nepal, then to Mexico, and ending the journey in Namibia. Today, I am still on the same trip.
On the way, I started my remote copy & design business (two actually), finally became a yoga teacher after years of thinking about it and (how cliché) found myself on the way. Worked out that my intuition is a gift, not a curse, and learned how to accept myself in good and bad times.
My Vision...
To empower women and men to take on full ownership of their life. To create the life they desire. To live joy instead of stress. To perceive the body, mind and soul as a whole. To break down societies believes that we are limited, because we are not.
I want to make healing arts accessible for all of us. I want to take away the vague definition of spiritual teachings and present them as what they actually are: Scientifically proven tools to heal your past and to empower your present.
My Mission...
Travel, teach, create and play at the same time for the rest of my life.
Do my designs, pass on my teachings, write heaps, enjoy every single moment, practice everything I haven’t practiced before and feel the simple joy of the presence in every second.
my teachings
I started Yoga early in my life, coming from a need of physical movement beyond dancing and walking the doggies. The physical asana practice was a big part of my daily routine before I learned what Yoga actually means. Today, I teach retreats and workshops in Nepal, Bali, Greece and Germany organized by me or our company Zenith Sanctuaries, a community project of teachers worldwide.
In Nepal, I made my first contact with meditation. It was mind blowing, heart breaking and painful. I realized that there was another way of dealing with all the pain I constantly felt, from within and without, and that way wasn’t drugs and alcohol. It was simple presence and acceptance.
Today, my teachings are a wild mix of things I picked up on my own journey. I wont teach anything I am not truly committed to. Nevertheless, I do not follow one particular school. Combining Vinasha Yoga, meditation, intuitive movement, traditional Hatha Yoga, dance, Tantra, Breathwork, NLP, Ayurveda, Yoga Nidra, energy healing and nutrition, I see body, mind and spirit as a whole.
With more than 500+ hours of Yoga teacher trainings, workshops and thousands of hours of self study and practice, all my teachings ultimately lead to the same destination:
Using breath, movement and nutrition to create a state of full acceptance of who you truly are to embody self love as your greatest power.
Nepal, Greece, Germany and Bali
Happy to heal with you!
my copies & designs
As I originally wanted to become an artist after school, but then chose to study architecture, I was firstly gifted with creativity and second perfectly drilled in German university to use any kind of graphic design tools. Always interested in web design and coding, I started playing around with my own websites and soon discovered that this is indeed A LOT of fun.
Today, I will help you to give your brand a strong voice. My passion for design drives me to create a customized brand identity for you and your needs. With clear corporate design, coordinated color concepts and a matching tone in copy we establish an unforgettable recognition value together. Long story short: I do Webdesign, corporate identity, instagram marketing and all the little things a designer does.
Because I absolutely LOVE writing and been running this blog for more than 10+ years, I soon discovered that offering design AND copy is the ultimate, and did exactly that. Visual and text goes as one for me and my clients appreciate to get a whole package from one designer / writer.
