How I moved from burning out at the age of 21 to embracing a slower, mindful and embodied way of living
I was 21 years old and felt like burning out
I checked off all of the boxes:
✓ eating healthy
✓ going to the fitness every day
✓ studying
✓ having my own plant based catering business which was doing great
✓ spending time with friends
✓ having 5 other student jobs besides my catering business
✓ taking care of others
I was doing all of the things. Being a good woman. A goal getter. Yet at a certain point I felt trapped. It was like I couldn’t breathe. I felt lost.
Is this it?
Is this the life everyone is talking about?
Working 9-5, squeezing in a healthy lifestyle by going to the fitness, making healthy meals, having a drink with friends, studying, working,…
The days went by so quick. I barely could keep up.
I was tired. Okay to be honest, I was exhausted..
… I felt so much tension over my whole body, I was so stressed. Working 24/7. Skipping sleep in order to finish all of my tasks.
This couldn’t possibly be it, right?
Luckily I discovered Shiatsu during that time
It opened my eyes and made me see so clearly…
There is another way of living. A slower way of living.
A way of living where you can invite presence. Away from the rat race into the now. No longer rushing and running after deadlines — making space and time to enjoy the simple things in life instead.
A way of living where there is time and space for all of you. To be your most authentic self. A mindful way of living where you can find alignment with what your heart truly desires.
A way of living where you tune into your needs instead of ignoring them until it is too late.
A way of living where every single day you can experience freedom. Where you leave fear, anxiety, limiting beliefs and the thoughts of others behind.
A way of living where you say YES to yourself.
Hi, my name is Moika and I advocate for living a slower and more intentional life
In 2019, I made the conscious decision to embrace a slower pace, a journey that has transformed my life and can transform yours too. Over the years, I’ve been honoured to share my insights on self care and sexuality with audiences of Flair magazine and guided a meditation on MNM radio.
With a deep passion for nature’s wisdom, I have immersed myself in studying the healing properties of herbs, plants and flowers, inspiring me to host nourishing tea ceremonies. Over the past three and a half years, I have held space for 28 in-person retreats and guided over 600 women online towards a more peaceful and fulfilled way of living.
My approach blends various powerful tools like Kundalini yoga, EFT tapping, hypnosis and tantric work, always within a framework that honours our deep connection to nature. Through a combination of subconscious work and ceremonial creative experiences, I guide you towards releasing old patterns and embracing a more mindful, serene life.
Whether you are seeking personal growth in a one-on-one setting, a private retreat or a life-changing online journey, I am here to support you in cultivating a slower, more intentional and creative way of being.
Let’s embark on this journey towards a slower life together.
