The Story
“There’s no birth of consciousness without pain” Jung
My name is Zsofi and my speciality is unearthing, holding and accepting your pain and discomforts to allow transformation.
My Story
Currently, I am living an hour North of Berlin with my husband and son, building a conscious community. Through the journey of motherhood my heart has expanded beyond what was imaginable not only towards my family, but for all Life! Watching a tiny human experiencing everything for the first time is incredibly charging. It has also awakened a responsibility within me to serve. Not long ago I was on the road seeking teachers, practices, communities to feel at “home”and whole within myself. I wasn’t looking outward for the truth or a solution, but I was still looking. These days I feel more accepting and present with all of my human self, others and Life’s experiences; recognising, owning and sharing my gifts.

Since I was a little girl I have had a sensitivity that often left others feeling disturbed. I would feel not only my own emotions, but everything that was present in the room. And I had a way of magnifying and provoking emotions out of others. This was not an easy journey, yet today I can celebrate not only my sensitivity, but also my ability to invite others into facing their emotions, their pains and discomforts. I find this to be so important in our World and for our transformation as Humanity.
This is my gift and I truly trust in this as a huge and incredibly valuable step in our growth and in the growth of humanity. To stop numbing ourselves, stop distracting ourselves from the immense pain that is present on our planet. The healing can only begin by feeling it first, by courageously opening up to it and welcoming it as an old friend. And sometimes this process needs a bit of support and guidance. Sometimes we don’t know where to begin and fear that if we enter these realms, we may never come out again. So it feels safer to have a hand to hold, to sit with someone who has the trust in our emergence all along, who is there to remind you in each moment that you are ok. More than ok! -
My mother left her physical body over 6 years ago. Her long journey with cancer had been my catalyst for change towards a place where I could bare such separation. During these years I pushed myself beyond my limits by traveling alone, living and teaching at yoga ashrams, sitting long meditation and dark retreats and experimenting with plant medicines. These experiences founded in me an unquestionable faith in our oneness and gave me a bag of tools to help me remember this truth at more challenging times. Caring for my mother in the last months of her life allowed me to put all of what I had learned into practice. Experiencing her last breath in my arms was a gift beyond words and a testament of the path I have chosen. Since then I spent most of my time focusing on tantric practices especially for women and dance meditation to move towards a fully embodied life.

I am originally from Budapest, Hungary. I moved to New York when I was twelve with my mom. Though I learned the English language very quickly and easily, I struggled with the pressures to assimilate to what I experienced as a very superficial culture in middle school. At a young age I began to experiment with drugs and alcohol soon experiencing depressive and anxious states. This eventually led me to an interest in studying psychology and working on a psychiatric unit. However I was quickly disappointed in the limiting way our system works. At the same time I was getting ready to face my fears and anxieties, recognising a need to connect with nature. I left the big city and found myself on a farm on the island of Maui in Hawaii. This experience was so liberating and healing that I decided to live a life that continues to nourish me in such way. I freely traveled to places my heart pulled me to, often returning to New York to be with my mom.
