Welcome! I’m Ghislaine, a spirited woman on a journey to live an extraordinary life. Leaving my native France at 19 for the Netherlands, I have been on a journey of acceptance towards my body. Struggling societal norms that I had learned to accept as truth, I embarked on destructive cycles of dieting and exercise, only to find myself more overweight and less connected to my body. It wasn’t until I learned to feel IN my body that I discovered true self-acceptance.
For many years my mind dictated what my body needed to do to feel good. But this was deeply disconnecting me from my body’s true needs. I found my healing in embodiement. Our bodies is a fantastic tool that makes it possible for us to have this Earth experience, start acknowledging her!
My journey is a very classical one: young girl struggles with her body image, was bullied, develops an eating disorder, hates her body, believes the body image narrative of the 90’s, suffers depressions, goes to yoga, studies personal development books, and ends up weighing 134 kilos and feeling completely miserable.
And then frustrated and desperate by the fight I had been fighting and loosing for years I made a decision that was going to change my life.
I decided I was done fighting, I decided the rest of my life was not going to be the repeat version of the past and I decided that whatever needed healing, I would heal it, no matter what.
That was the moment I completely took ownership of my health and healing journey. I crafted my own program supported by divers mentors, healers, teachers and therapists. On this journey of becoming me I attuned to my body, to her personal needs and preferences. This attunement brought me to my gastric bypass in 2016 and after that I bounced from the one achievement to the other.
Today I am this woman: one with my body, respect for my body’s rhythm, I dare to face my challenges, I choose nourishment, sparkle in my eyes, joyful living and conscious creator of my life.
