“Who am I?” One of the oldest and most discussed questions of humanity picked up and reprocessed from the famous Indian yogi Sri Ramana Maharshi. Thirty years ago I was born into this world and like many before I am asking myself the same question. Studying and practicing Yoga and many of its techniques has certainly brought me some answers. For more than ten years I have been practicing meditation and about six years ago I started to regularly practice Hatha Yoga. I am a Yoga teacher for two years now and since then, I have been teaching Yoga and Meditation. I am also very interested in ecology and methods to protect and preserve nature. I was volunteering in an ecovillage in Sweden and have lived with a Yogic master and his community in India. In these communities, I have learned how to be a more organic being both on the material and on the spiritual level. The experiences I have made during that time have slowly changed my perception of life. Life is a gift and it has to be honored and celebrated. I want to give myself fully to every moment. That is how I show my gratitude.
