BESCHRIJVING

   Since I was a little girl, I've always had a passion and my ways of expression, as I was super shy and introverted. I started drawing and painting when I was in kindergarten, expressing stories in my drawings, which continued throughout my life and led me to art school. I graduated in fine arts and design.

 Meanwhile, as long as I can remember, I have been journaling my entire life.

As a child, my diary was my imaginary friend that was always there to listen to my everyday life.

Growing up, I started writing poems, expressing my heart and emotions through them. I always found refuge in fully expressing my heart without guilt and shame. 

Growing up, dancing through life's challenges, I discovered the 5Rhythms practice, which opened up so many doors for me to fully spread my wings. Movement became the catalyst for transformation, leading me into self-discovery and the alchemy of my body, heart, and mind, reconnecting with my soul repeatedly.

In my personal healing journey, these are my main healing tools:

Art, writing, and dance that keeps me going in life.

It has been a long-time vision to create this offering at the right time, and here I am, fully feeling in my body and soul that this is a right time, to create this container of soul poetry that comes alive in movement, in poetry, and in art, with no rules—just a flow of energy, the frequency that moves through our being.
