Your life is precious! 
Hello, my name is Diane
Bodyworker - Yoga teacher - Fasting guide

I'm a single white mother of a Black child, and this is the driving force behind everything I do.

At 30, I found myself navigating the challenges of single motherhood with a one-year-old son. This moment marked the beginning of a journey defined by endurance, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to preserve my energy. I quickly realized that my energy wasn't just for me or for navigating the challenges that motherhood can bring. I also needed this energy for seeing the world through my son's eyes and understanding that his experiences would be shaped differently from mine. Purely because of the colour of his skin.

​

Growing up in Germany, both of my parents were my greatest role models. They embodied self-care. I spent more time in the gym with them than on the playground. Then I watched my father transition from the gym to finding solace in nature, in the forest. Through our shared jogs in the forest, I discovered the profound connection between nature, exercise, and mental well-being from a young age. During my impressionable years I also dabbled with sport as a competitive swimmer. I clearly saw the connection between nourishment and result. A lesson that has remained a cornerstone of my life.

​

When I became a mother, I knew I needed to build on this foundation. Mental clarity, physical strength, and robust health were no longer just personal goals—they were necessities. I had to be at my best, not just for myself but also for my son. To be that role model for him that I had in my parents and provide him with the solid foundations needed to navigate life on his terms.

​

My journey towards my life purpose began in the rainforests of Costa Rica, where I trained to become a yoga teacher. This led me to women's circles, where I deepened my understanding of menstrual cycle awareness and learned the art of working with women through nourishing touch and massage. My passion for this work took me further, leading me to study with the UK's leading master practitioner of the sacred art of Hawaiian massage. To truly grasp the depth and vibrancy of this profound practice, I continued my studies with a teacher from Hawaii.

​

I continued to seek deeper, more lasting forms of self-care as it became a survival necessity. In 2015, I attended my first fasting hiking retreat, seeking a reset that would provide the endurance I needed in both body and mind. It changed my life.

​

This is my calling—where purpose meets passion and experience.
