MY PATH OF LEARNING

The education that transformed me

My formal education is German Literature at the Ludwig’s Maximilian University of Munich, and then a PhD in Psychology at the Panteion University in Athens about divorced families in Greece. But my deeper education — the one that truly transformed me — came through the study and in-depth engagement with human consciousness and trauma processing.

The Living Heart Principles

01
Sustainable transformation begins with nervous system regulation and physiological coherence.
02
Emotional experience is not suppressed, but metabolized into meaning and integration.
03
Resilience is cultivated through embodied awareness, not through prolonged coping or endurance.

04
Inner stability enables ethical action, relational depth, and responsible leadership.

05
Identity is not fixed — outdated roles and survival patterns can be released to allow authentic expression.

06
Coherence between heart, brain, and behavior forms the foundation of clarity, adaptability, and sustainable growth.
