Maria-Lisa Höcker - call me Marie :)
That, for me, is a pretty big question. But I will try and keep it simple.
My name is Marie. When I look back at my life until now, I have always been doing what I do now. Only that as a child and teenager I did not call it, what I call it now. Intuition, reflecting on the bigger picture, wondering about the space far up in the sky and deep inside the earth, feeling connected to all that is and knowing we are one, that describes me as a child pretty well.
When I decided to study Psychology, maybe subconsciously (definitely not consciously) I was looking for a deeper understanding of everything. My mental health and overall state of wellbeing at that time though, showed me something was not right for me. That took me on a path of coming to the decision to quit my (academic) studies of Psychology and proceed in immersing myself in the teachings and practice of Yoga.
I became a Yoga teacher in 2017 and have taught Yoga as a full-time teacher until October 2024.
With time, my teaching and practice have changed, evolved and deepened. Somatic practices, sound healing, Human Design and menstrual/cyclical awareness came into my life and I took trainings and courses to deepen my knowledge.
In May 2024 I completed a year-long mentorship, the Sacred Birth Worker Mentorship Program, which could be described as a Doula training, but really is a lot more than a Doula training.
I am deepening my knowing around women-centered wisdom, women's practices and all things around birth and beyond every day.
Through all the years, what has guided me, is intuition. She has guided me even when I didn't know it. She guided me when I was desperately looking for her and she guided me when I had forgot she existed.
I feel and I know that Intuition can be the healing force. I am deeply devoted to her. And I have a deep deep wish to serve you in deepening your relation to her. The magic is here in this very moment. If we dare to listen.
SO MUCH LOVE TO YOU.
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
