The human body, like all living things, is an incredibly effective self-healing organism. Once you feel at peace and the energy within the body is in balance, self-healing and happiness naturally unfolds!
Practicing Qigong and sound and vibrational therapy are the main health modalities I am using.
When you work on muscles, it takes training to get them stronger. It is the same principle with the mind and the nervous system: It takes some training to calm the mind, go into a deep state of relaxation to reprogram pathways in the brain. There are several techniques or modalities to counteract patterns of anxiety and negative thinking and train your body and mind to slow down, be more focused, bring clarity, and overall to balance your emotions so you feel peaceful, strong, confident and happier!
The health modalities I am offering work at the energetic level which touches the deep core of our being! The body is a network of vibrational fields and energy currents, and with these modalities I help regulate energetic flow through the meridians, bring harmonious frequencies into your cells so you can access your self-healing abilities.
In addition these health modalities expand your awareness, facilitating a re-connection with true nature. We can call that connection with your True Self , Higher Self, Spirit, Source, inner wisdom, inner intelligence, inner guidance, Spiritual world, Teachers, Guides, Dao or God.... whichever word resonates with you. We like to use the word "inner guidance"

Over the past 18 years I have been experiencing, practicing and studying a palette of Eastern ancient practices, and medicine, as well as modern holistic Western healing modalities. I have been amazed that on an energetic level, what can appear a soft and subtle therapy or practice is actually the most powerful one as we are dealing here with the core of our being, our mind and roots of emotions.

A few words about me:
I aspire to practice with others so they experience the benefits of the Qigong, and guided sound journeys.. I aspire to help those around me in a more balanced lifestyle, support overall wellbeing, bring inner peace in these challenging times and get into the habit to slow down. I am actually teaching the opposite of what we were taught in this society: rather than doing more and more, I am compensating for this fast paced society, so you can slow down, learn to feel and be mindful, enjoying the stillness without having to sit in meditation. What I like about the Qigong flow practice is that it is a mediation in movement. Anyone having a difficult time sitting to meditate?
The sound journey of course, is such an easy way to slow down, go into that deep meditative state effortlessly. Everybody loves it! Plus it brings inner harmony into each and every cell in your body. It shifts your brainwaves and you will be amazed how fast you can feel peaceful and rested like if you had a good night sleep. I love guiding groups into a meditative sound journey which lightly includes inner reflections for self-development. Powerful experience!
A few words about my path into the practice of Qigong and sound healing..My path in energy work started 17 years ago with a strong foundation in Ayurveda (Ayurvedic Lifestyle Coaching and Ayurvedic Dietetics), a certification in Kundalini Yoga, and as an Acutonics (tuning forks) sound and vibrational therapist. As a certified Kundalini yoga teacher I had an injury practicing yoga and since then it became painful to practice it. I missed the mental and spiritual aspect of the yogic practice.... until I discovered Qigong!
Naturally I expanded my knowledge in Traditional Chinese Medicine and energy work practicing Qigong. I discovered Qigong in 2019 and “fell in love” with the practice! Since then I have been practicing and teaching it on a daily basis.
I am a certified Qigong flow instructor and a professional member of the National Qigong Association. Qigong flow has become my core practice and I love sharing it with others. It has been truly life transforming for me helping with physical ailments such as frozen shoulders, but also feeling so much more aligned in my life. What a gift, truly a hidden gem!. As I have been sharing and teaching it for the past 5 years, I see so many happy faces from my students and little miracles.
In my practice, I am combining Qigong flow with sound healing: as we open the energy pathways and allow the Qi to move smoothly throughout the body, the body is even more receptive to receive the healing frequencies! I have been leading groups with cacao ceremonies that include a Qigong flow practice transitioning into a guided meditation for a sound journey.
These events have different themes supporting self-development and spiritual growth.
I am teaching in person a few times a week in a yoga studio in Hollywood, Florida, and at each full moon on the beach. I am also teaching livestream classes on Zoom a few times a week, each online practice being recorded. Let’s flow in this life together, I trust our path will cross one day! :)
I will spare you from too many details. I have a few other “tools” in my box, assisting my clients as best as I can.
Below are my credentials and certifications.
With love and happy Qi,
Sophie
