PERSONAL BIOGRAPHY

Welcome to the SILENT⋅ALCHEMY website. As the name suggests, its focus is on inner transformation by cultivating inner stillness and silence.

Since 2014, I have been studying various ancient methods and traditions for internal change. Just before I started my journey of exploration, I was suddenly struck by a strong intuition. A desire had been awakened within me to explore the nature of energy and how to cultivate it.

My path has led me to study many of the ancient traditions, from Indian Yoga and Tantra to the Taoist systems of Qigong and Neigong. Through my personal experience, and finding the common threads in each of these systems, I aim to understand the fundamental principles underlying them.

Initially, my conscious exploration of the breath started with the Yogic system of Pranayama. I was instantly captivated by the idea of learning how to influence the body and mind through our breathing.

After years of dedicated practice, I decided it was time to connect the science with the practice. In 2020, I joined the Breatheology Instructor Program to learn about the anatomical, physiological and mental aspects of breathing.

Since then, I have been synthesizing all my knowledge and experience into the course offered here. My aim is to provide a complete and balanced overview of the fundamental principles behind our breathing. I firmly believe that a proper understanding of the mechanisms involved allows one to take their practice to a higher development.

​

From 2015 until 2024, I have also been involved with The Gaia Method, a holistic body-oriented therapy modality founded by Susanne Roursgaard. I have been part of organizing, facilitating and teaching at The Gaia Method.

I am a very passionate student of the Taoist systems. Even though Qigong and Neigong share common aspects with the Indian system, there are distinct differences. It offers an alternative perspective on working with the breath, the physical body and our energy system.

Since the beginning of 2024, I am also studying BioGeometry. BioGeometry is a science that offers ways to balance and harmonize the energy quality of the human body, the environment and modern technology. It seems like this will be the next chapter in my journey of understanding the nature of energy.
