She has explored mindfulness through both religious and secular teachings and with many cultures and traditions through her travels to every continent. She strongly believes that mindfulness goes beyond all our differences of faith or custom and helps us to become more connected to our human family, and that of the living planet.

Denise is happy to work with individuals, small groups or classes, in private, and in workshop or class settings. She is particularly interested in working with children and young adults; to teach them how to use mindfulness as a tool to help cope with the challenges facing young people in this modern world.

Katrin wholeheartedly believes that your wellbeing matters and that everyone is inherently worthy of a life of vibrant health and happiness. It is her mission to inspire, empower and educate to spread this message.

Her background in Customer Service, Workplace Training and Early Childhood Education has seen her working within her local community for over 30 years (most recently with young children and families). She has worked within the metropolitan water industry, local council and in various early childhood education settings around Australia.

Always seeking to deeply nurture her own wellbeing throughout the different stages of her life, Katrin has experienced anxiety, depression and overwhelm and for many years pushed through stress/exhaustion trying to do it ‘all’ and hoping to achieve life balance.

Katrin found mindfulness over 20 years ago as she began practising yoga and found it to be a life changing practice. She was able to deeply reconnect with herself. This had a profound impact on her quality of life on many levels and greatly improved her wellbeing. The benefits of greater calm, joy and ease had a flow-on effect to all aspects of her life. This has been reiterated in recent years as she has navigated a career-ending knee injury which took her on a further journey of deep healing that continues to this day.

She now enjoys a joyful, slow-living lifestyle and loves to share her experience with others.

Katrin is happily settled in the Riverina region of NSW, Australia where she lives with her family. She now works from home, running her own coaching service, where she supports others as they seek to improve their health and wellbeing.
