BETTINA NOACK YOGA
HELLO I'M BETTINA
MY JOURNEY
I am something of a "truth seeker."
Since I was in school, I felt there must be more that a human being should know and experience. After university and despite my success in the corporate world, there was a "missing piece" that I started searching for.
I approached this search for the "other side" with books like the 'Tibetan Book of the Dead' and started with a very systematic and physical yoga practice.
I Integrated Yoga into my life, and since then, I've been practicing, experiencing, teaching, guiding, and consistently learning.
So far, I've taught Yoga in different styles for over 20 years.
It has been a wonderful journey of learning and growth, and I feel grateful to be able to share the benefits of yoga with others as a yoga and meditation teacher.
I SHARE MY EXPERIENCE WITH YOU, MY PATH WITH YOGA INTO THE DEEP
Through my yoga journey, I have learned a lot about myself and the essence of being human.
From my experiences, I have always been curious and fascinated by the inexhaustible potential of the human being, and I have developed my own practice, which I was able to test for myself after a life-altering illness 3 years ago. I emerged from the depths of that experience stronger, confident, with clarity, more life-affirming, and more courageous than before.
I was born in Santiago de Chile as the fourth generation of German immigrants, and moving to the Atacama Desert with my parents at the age of 7, I learned early on what it means to be different.
The questions "Who am I?", "Where do I belong?" and "What is my task here on earth?" have interested me from an early age on. So it is no surprise that many moves later, I found the path of yoga...
Welcome to Azul Profundo, a journey from the surface to the deep.
MANTRA
Some yogis get their personal mantra from an Indian guru. I got my mantra in 1980 from my grandfather, an evangelical pastor in Africa and Chile.
What it was that I got there I didn't understand until many years later...
"Fearless
in full trust in the forces
which God* gives you
create your life,
so that it continues to be beautiful."
*The great consciousness, the primal intelligence, the source
Some stages of my way...
from head to heart
