A heartfelt welcome to the Conscious Walk. My name is Tanja.

Yoga and being in nature are two fundamental aspects of my life. I grew up next to a forest and from early ages on, the forest has been my refuge and energy source.

When I discovered yoga for myself, I moved the meditation practice and breath work to the forest. More and more I experienced the therapeutig power of the trees, plants, microorganisms, animals, etc. of this environment. 

I obtained the yoga instructor title in a very traditional yoga school in India which teaches Yoga and Ayurveda (traditional Indian medicine) as a lifestyle and prevention for disease. I decieded to not only apply this knowledge but to share it with everybody who wants to dive into yoga. 

The yoga formation I participated in, emphasizes meditation, breathwork (Pranayama), relaxation (Yoga Nidra), yoga therapy (Yoga Chikitsa) and principles of traditional Indian medicine (Ayuerveda). In the Conscious Walks we will discover several different techniques of these important aspects of yoga. Furthermore, I will introduce tools from japanese forest bathing (Shinrin Yoku). Asanas, however, will not form part of this experience.
