I nurture myself.
I heal my body.
I relief my mind.

Welcome to Somatic Coaching.
 

In Somatic Coaching, the foundational principle is to truly feel. When you tune into your own sensations, you become acutely aware of your present state, which is crucial for reconnecting with your body and its signals. This awareness plays a pivotal role in understanding and addressing tension and stress, ultimately freeing your movement and actions. 

Feeling and awareness are powerful catalysts for transformation. They prompt you to question long-held beliefs and patterns—emotional, mental, and physical—that have shaped your reality. As these familiar categories are gently challenged, you open up to new perspectives and possibilities.

During a Somatic Coaching session, you will be guided through touch and verbal instructions to focus your attention where it's needed most. This process helps you recover, heal, and gain clarity about your current experiences.

Each breath and movement during the session helps you unlock your potential, letting go of what no longer serves you. By cultivating full awareness, you take responsibility for your well-being, paving the way for a life of freedom and ease.

Transform Your Journey:
Reserve Your Time.

All our services are offered in both German and English.


Please note that I will be on winter break from December 15, 2024, to January 31, 2025.

During this time, I will offer a limited number of Zoom sessions.
I look forward to resuming our full range of services upon my return.


 

New pricing + Special Offer
 

Dear valued clients,

I am thrilled to celebrate the successful completion of our first year at "The Sanctuary", marked by numerous transformative experiences and your enthusiastic support. After many years of professional and deeply transformative personal processes, I am making the decision to adjust the pricing for the first time, in line with index adjustments and current rates and standards for self-employed professionals. This change reflects my commitment to continuing to offer the highest quality of service and to support your personal growth and well-being with renewed dedication and excellence.

Starting on October the 7th, you will have the flexibility to choose from three different pricing options for most of my services, with two slots per week available on a sliding scale for social support. To ensure a smooth transition, I am offering my service (Somatic Coaching) at the old pricing throughout September.

In addition to the existing options, you can now choose to extend your sessions to 90 minutes for a deeper and more comprehensive experience. I look forward to continuing our work together and creating meaningful change in your life.

It is my honor and respect for everyone who bravely confronts their pains and fears in pursuit of meaningful change.

Sincerely yours,

Barbara

Discover the Depths of Healing Beyond Thought.
 

Our suffering and symptoms often stem from intense experiences such as loss, neglect, abuse, stress, or chronic illness. These experiences, whether from accidents, surgeries, or ongoing challenges, create deeply ingrained patterns of behavior and thinking that shape our current reality.

 

Through Somatic Coaching, I guide you to become aware of these patterns and help you understand, relieve, and release the accumulated pressure, stress, or emotions tied to pain and fear. 

 

To shift these entrenched patterns, it is essential to introduce new, positive experiences that can rewire the brain. By creating and integrating these fresh, constructive experiences, you can begin to change how your brain is wired, paving the way for new ways of thinking and being.

 

In our sessions, we create a space where everything is welcome—whether it’s frightening, ugly, or previously suppressed. This includes the intense emotions and experiences such as anger, hatred, and fear that were held back for safety or survival.

 

By unlocking these repressed "forces," you will find relief from symptoms, and your perception of yourself, others, and the world will begin to shift. Together, we move from a zone of safety that once served you into a new realm where you can move freely and truly be yourself.

"I have been a client of Barbaras on retreats as well as individual sessions. Her combination of Somatic Coaching and Yoga makes her treatments and teachings a unique and wonderful experience and I am truly grateful for every minute she helped me to understand my body and myself better.
 
If I wouldn't have moved away from Vienna, I'd still be a steady customer in her studio and I haven't found anything nearly as healing and helpful as the sessions with her."

The Body's Natural Healing Process.
 

The human body has a remarkable and inherent ability to heal itself. Illness often arises when we consistently neglect our bodies’ basic needs or subject them to prolonged stress and misuse.

Our bodies are continually striving to maintain balance, shifting between states of activity and rest, high energy and low effort. Neurologically, we oscillate between our survival mechanism (the fight-or-flight response) and our capacity for relaxation (the rest-and-digest state).

Every moment, our cells are diligently working to restore us to a natural state of homeostasis or equilibrium. You will experience that this pursuit of balance—physically, mentally, and emotionally—is the central focus of every Somatic Coaching session.
