“For over 30 years I have held sacred space—in yoga and meditation classes, retreats, teacher trainings, women’s circles and in the realm of astrology and coaching. Connecting with so many beautiful souls is an honor and privilege. Every encounter is a source of inspiration and awe. I am deeply grateful to be in service ”
I was born in Rome, Italy in a German -Italian Family.Trained in film and anthropology in Germany and Italy, with a thesis on a Pueblo reservation in New Mexico, I worked as a journalist and television producer in Rome, New York and London for RAI and the BBC.
In London, my inner path began through Astrology, Yoga, Psychosynthesis, and Celtic spirituality. Over the years I became a certified Yoga Teacher, immersed myself in Tibetan Buddhism, became a Mindfulness Teacher, Integral Coach and Death Doula, and deepened my astrological practice through psychological, evolutionary, and Hellenistic lineages.
In 1997, I founded Healing Waters, a Yoga and Healing Arts center in Western New York, which I directed for 20 years, training teachers, facilitating mindfulness programs, and serving as a stress-reduction consultant for public institutions.
From 2020–2024, I guided a yearly course, One Year to Live, a yearlong contemplative journey with death as teacher.
Since 2023, I’ve worked online, now based in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico where I now live with my husband our three dogs and occasional visits of our son.
In September 2023 I was initiated as an Avalonian Priestess in Glastonbury and I am currently continuing my astrological studies at the Avalonian Stellar Mystery school.
“Simple yet profound. Each word clearly written with intention beckons introspection and reveals an evolution of our “becoming”. Poems for Women of a Certain Age is beautifully written with simple, yet profound wisdom. This book is a true gem that I will continue to revisit to remind myself to heal and celebrate the gifts of my maiden, motherhood and now crone experiences.
Thank you for the gift of your wisdom...I cherish it”
