I guide women back into their bodies and couples into deeper intimacy with each other and themselves.

Back into aliveness, truth and unapologetic self expression.​

I am devoted to the path of embodied liberation and to the reclamation of the wild force inside our bodies, which was never supposed to be shamed, silenced and suppressed.

I believe we don't need more processing, endless healing and fixing.

We need more embodiment and permission to become more of who we already are.

​​

My work is not something i offer.

It is something i live, practise and research every day.​

Let me tell you a bit more about my journey.

My journey

My journey began 16 years ago during one of the lowest points in my life.

I was struggling with bulimia, emotional numbness and deep shame.

I felt deeply disconnected from myself, my body and others.

Yoga and Vipassana meditation were my first entry points.
But they were only the beginning.

For years, I lived in survival mode.
Disconnected from my body, my pleasure and my aliveness.

I was the “good girl”.
Pleasing. Performing. Waiting to be chosen. Abandoning myself for love.

But inside i felt empty and numb.
I was unable to allow the intimacy I deeply longed for.

I was completely cut off from my sexuality and my desires.
The bedroom became a place of performing and enduring, instead of feeling.

But deep down there was something in me that knew:

There has to be more.

That knowing changed everything.

 

​I began to explore deeper through conscious movement, somatic bodywork, nervous system work, tantra and temple arts.

And slowly, something started to open.

Not through forcing or fixing, but through feeling and allowing.

Over the years, I devoted my life to this path:

Coming back into my body.

Reclaiming what had been silenced.
Reclaiming my emotions.

My pleasure.
My truth.

My eros
My expression.
My aliveness.

My turn-on

​​​​

Learning to feel again and to trust my body.

Experiencing that it's safe to be myself.
To stop abandoning my truth.

This path continues to shape me and it’s the foundation of the work I now share.

My work today

Today I guide women, men and couples back into their bodies and into deeper intimacy with themselves and each other.

My work is rooted in Embodiment, Somatics, Tantra, Temple Arts and nervous system work.

But more than any method it's about creating a space, where your body feels safe enough to open.

A space, where you can experience that it's safe enough to be yourself and to be in connection.

​​

You might resonate with my work, if you are longing for: 

𖤓 Less processing, more permission

𖤓 Less fixing, more aliveness

𖤓 Less catharsis,  more capacity

𖤓 Less pleasing, more pleasure

𖤓 Less analyzing,  more expression

𖤓 Less thinking, more feeling

​​​​

I don’t push you out of your comfort zone.

I support you to create the safety your body needs to meet the edge.

I don't believe in rigid structures and performative "love and light" spirituality.

I stand for truth, authenticity and fully embodied self expression.

​​​

Not to become someone new, but to embody  fullness of who you already are.

Your body leads, i support.

What clients say about my work

"Now I'm myself again. Safe. - That's my thoughts after my first somatic bodywork session with Jana. She held the space for me and supported me so clearly and lovingly as I gave my body permission to speak and courageously listened to its wisdom, allowing to unfold and let issues resolve on their own. After every session, I feel grounded and have new tools to powerfully remind myself of my truth in everyday life. I can wholeheartedly recommend Jana!"
