Nature Breath Walk in May: Inhale Presence. Exhale Noise.
Experience communion with nature through guided practices that bridge traditional wisdom and modern understanding of our bodies and minds.
Trees, plants, and the changing seasons offer wisdom that can inform and inspire us—but accessing this knowledge requires a different pace and presence.
Berlin Breath Walks offers a pathway to reconnect with nature through sensory awareness, expanded perception, and mythic storytelling.
Slowing down and being intensely present is the theme of May’s Breath Walk.
We'll experiment and enlist the help of breath, senses, and the environment to be in the moment and extend it.
To get rested, inspired, and connected.

Group size
I want it to be an intimate experience, so groups are small and limited to 10 participants.
About me and the walks:
I am a curious human, exploring life and the human condition from a variety of angles. From nutrition consulting to a deep dive into breathwork, embodiment, and coaching.
I was able to find peace of mind, continuous flow, and aliveness after a terrifying loss by opening myself up to the wild inside and beyond. Nature and breath brought me back to life.
My life has changed in profound ways since. I started a formal education as a wilderness educator, immersed myself in the experience-based study of nature. Through observing, touching, listening, planting, tasting, rituals, science, and herbalism.
I believe the void and anguish many of us feel is nothing else but a lack of deep connection to nature that we humans are part of.
My dream is for all of us humans to reconnect to our wild roots. For the selfish reasons of finding love and belonging that we crave for and for the sense of stewardship of life on this planet that awakens as a result.
My way of reconnecting is through breathing with nature and trees. I’d be honored if you decided to join me.
A few biography highlights:
In 1998, at the brink of default, I left a small Russian town to go straight to Silicon Valley for an MBA degree with $350 in my pocket.
My adventures since then included living in four countries, hustling in a Silicon Valley startup and burning out at Greenpeace, founding and closing a startup, training in sales, and cold-calling.
