About Annette
Hello,
Great to have you here on my website! Let me tell you a little about myself: I grew up in Germany, came to California in my early 20s, and now live in a small town in the redwoods not too far from the coast.
Introduced to meditation at an early age by my parents, I developed a love for mindful living both in my personal and professional life. After experiencing my first breathwork session and based on my own experiences, I began to share different breathwork techniques in my career as a language teacher to help with test anxiety, difficulty focusing, self-doubt, and other issues that were in the way of study success. After seeing the amazing transformation my students experienced after just a few breathing exercises, I knew I wanted to become a breathwork facilitator to introduce as many people as possible to the healing powers of breathwork.
Healing and teaching have been my great passions, and I studied with Breathing Space in the UK to become a licensed breathwork facilitator certified by the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance and the International Breathwork Foundation. I also work as a teacher, counselor, and mentor, in addition to having received my doctorate in education.
