All this is full. All that is full.
From fullness,
fullness comes.
When fullness is taken
from fullness,
Fullness still remains.
[the isha upanishad]
Hi, my name is Britta…
…and like most people I found my way into yoga thanks to a stressful job and a turbulent relationship. This is how it started, but since then it led me to a completely new way of being. It helped me to observe and understand the ups and downs in my body and in my mind. It made me see the relationship between political and social belief systems and individual suffering from a new perspective. Ultimately, it unveiled to me that there’s a reality that is beyond judgement - beyond ideas and good and bad – and understanding this reality – fully, not just intellectually – can truly set us free. Both as individuals and on a collective level.
To help others see that too is what motivates me to teach yoga. It is also what drives my engagement with political and social change. We cannot ignore systems of oppression, inequality and injustice while tending to our individual well-being. Both of them are connected. You will find these themes – yoga, spirituality, mindfulness but also philosophy, politics and social change – reflected in both my teaching and my writing.
I would be honored to accompany you in your journey. Please feel free to explore my current offerings, my writing and my other content and to reach out if you feel like it corresponds to you. I am looking forward to connecting with you!
