Why breathwork
​
Silke has a long personal history of chronic health issues. When she received a cancer diagnosis in March 2020 in the middle of Covid she faced her biggest challenge: How to survive - how to become healthy and stay healthy? The solution was the combination of conventional medicine with alternative therapies and Body-Mind-Trainings.
On her journey she learnt from the best and took a deep-dive into modern research, movement, nutrition, meditation, yoga and neuroscience.
Breathwork became the game changer in her healing process. Today she has fully recovered, providing special expertise in breath-related chronic diseases and effective
self-care-strategies.
Where to
​
Experiencing the benefits of breathwork in her own life, Silke decided to become a
professional “breath guide” in order to share her knowledge and help others to heal and
strengthen their body and mind. In her trainings she goes beyond the superficial advice and combines ancient wisdom of pranayama (breathing) with modern science.
Silkes approach: holistic with an African twist.
