My experience as apprentice or student

My experience as apprentice or student

For more than 14 years, I followed several healing and self-development courses or practices in Italy, Portugal, Romania and Norway, learning from practitioners and mentors all over the world. Thus, I could learn more about mindfulness, coaching, meditation and embodiment techniques, astrology, numerology, Feng-Shui, Human Design, crystal therapy, art and trauma therapy, somatic therapy, family constellations, sound healing, circling, dancing (Biodanza, ecstatic dance and 5 rhythms), divination with cards, dowsing, essential oils and holistic cleansing techniques.

Here you can see a selection of the most interesting retreats, workshops, mentorships and trainings I did in the past 13 years:
