After working as a coach and mentor in social security for seven years, I decided to make a career switch to education. It turned out to be the best move ever. I'm a teacher to teenagers and young adults in vocational education now and I absolutely love doing that. Since I facilitate personal and spiritual development processes next to my parttime job in education, it's very important for me to stay grounded. Teaching does that for me, it challenges me to stay present in the here and now. The first few years of teaching were hard, but it taught me to be authentic and real. It still does, I love how teaching shows you the parts of yourself you are maybe not always eager to explore...but there's no escape from yourself and reality at school, in a busy classroom, and I consider that one of the greatest blessings of my professional life.
I was almost 30 years old when I had my first experience with energetic healing. After an eventful period in my personal life, all the emotions I didn’t know how to process at that time, got stuck in my neck and shoulders. I hadn’t been particularly interested in spirituality before, but in search of physical relief, I took my chances when the opportunity of an energetic healing arose.
That healing session ignited a strong desire to discover more of the magical world I hadn’t been consciously aware of. A lot fell into place about my own sensitivity to energy, things I had been feeling and experiencing before. My curiosity and drive to develop myself lead me to try numerous workshops, healing, energy work and meditation methods. I started developing my own abilities to work with energy in high speed mode and I have vowed to always keep learning.
My personal practice could be best described as eclectic, I am inspired by all kinds of spiritual and religious traditions. In terms of energy and healing, I work with the elemental energies (earth, air, fire, water and spirit) in direct relation to the divine. What I do and how I do it is always the result of my personal connection with divinity, it is a co-creation. In practice, this means that I do what feels right and trust my intuition, my own divine nature. The personal energy work techniques I’ve developed over the years is practical and very hands on.
What started as a way to free my neck and shoulders from pain, turned into a lifelong practice of enhancing my own physical and emotional well-being.
I have been working in coaching and education for the past 13 years. I am a licensed coach and teacher in vocational education, currently working parttime with teenagers studying in the field of hospitality.
Since I love teaching and education, I’ve decided to combine that passion with my spiritual work and have started teaching people about energy work techniques, focusing on teachers and other (educational) professionals. I couldn't think of a better way to share my own insights into these powerful, timeless teachings!
The session with Christel helped me to find a feeling I was looking for, my intuition, to shape it myself. This is a new and very pleasant perspective! Tuning in to my coaching question sensitively, 'einfülsam,' she sees what I feel and where I'm at in her own way. She uses the images she gets to help me feel myself what it is that I need. It's coaching on the level of energy! It doesn't really feel very different, but as soon as I realized that I also noticed that I am more aware and some of my blockages were removed.
When I ride a horse I’m afraid to fall, or I think something will happen like bucking or rearing and I prefer to be on the sidelines, watching others ride horses. I ride, but I still feel blocked. I wanted to understand this blockage and even remove it, preferably. I managed to do that thanks to the session with Christel. With her warm voice she invited me to come along with her and descend into myself. I ended up in a dark stable, it was a change place for carriage and riding horses behind the inn, somewhere in the mountains. In the past that’s where they changed horses on long journeys and it was my task to take care of all those horses. I did that lovingly and that was the difficulty. I was allowed to take care of them, but that was it. I wasn’t allowed to ride them because I was a woman, only men were allowed to ride horses. In a past life I had to stay on the sidelines. In this life, nobody is stopping me although it still felt like that. Since the session with Christel I have ridden my horse three times and it was liberating. Before I felt insecure in canter, now I smile. I’m free, I’m allowed to ride! I’m so much less frightened, no more unreasonable fear. This life is mine and in this life I’m allowed to ride horses. A lot has changed already and I’m excited to see how it develops. I understand now why I was always sticking to the sidelines and why I felt that blockage, I was still carrying that feeling of not being allowed to ride. I have shaken off that feeling now. I’m grateful for Christel and her guidance, I could finally investigate my experiences and their roots. Thanks to her guidance I have been able to do things different, I would recommend it to everyone.
When you work with Christel, you will realize there is more between heaven and earth. Her confidence and experience assured me that I was in good hands and I was safe while working during an ancestral healing with a dark spirit that has followed me for many years. I have followed Christel on her spiritual path and I am in awe of her powers and knowledge.
The workshop with Christel energized me. I felt so good at the end of it and I am now able to consciously connect to Mother Earth. Negative energy just flows away. I feel that I deal with my own energy levels more consciously now and I take time to have a moment of rest more often since the workshop.
The workshop helped me to understand the vital role of energy in my life. It was the first time I participated in such a workshop and it was very important that Christel gave it. She is very knowledgeable and well qualified in this field, but most importantly her personality and social skills helped me to feel comfortable and open up. I think the role of the supervisor is key for any new spiritual experience. It is important to be led by persons who you trust and feel comfortable with. It is a process that you may feel vulnerable and exposed. I found it extremely helpful that Christel guided me and showed me the way.
