MY WAY WITH THE HORSES
FROM LONGING TO VOCATION
Horses have accompanied me for as long as I can remember. From the very beginning, they were more than just animals to me – they were teachers, mirrors, and beings who repeatedly guided me back to my own truth.
Fascination Horse
After graduating from high school, one thing was absolutely clear to me:
I wanted to work with horses.
I became a state-certified equine professional after completing a three-year vocational training and began my career in the international Western Sport, working as an assistant trainer alongside a rider from the German National Reining Team, with a strong focus on Reining and Working Cow Horse. Yet in the midst of performance, speed, and pressure, I felt something I could not ignore:
It was no longer about connection.
It was only about function.
And that was never my path.
From Professional Sport to Healing – A Conscious Shift
I turned toward the horses for whom the system had no answers: insecure horses, traumatized horses, horses with chronic issues, unexplained lameness, or diagnoses that were considered “hopeless.” Together with veterinarians, osteopaths, and farrier, I founded a rehabilitation center for these horses. We witnessed things that went far beyond conventional diagnostics.
And we achieved a success rate of over 90%.
This time taught me more than any formal education ever could:
- that horses compensate far more than we realize
- that symptoms are rarely the root cause
- that body, nervous system, and energy system always interact
- that real change happens when these connections are understood
The Path Into Depth – Body, Nervous System, Energy System
I began to work more holistically and to explore deeper layers:
- Trauma-sensitive osteopathy
- energetic healing techniques
- light kinesiology & frequency field therapy
- nature-based feeding
- hoof health
- Equine Biomechanics & Movement Patterns
- trauma, nervous system & regulation
- consciousness work
And the further I went, the clearer it became to me:
A horse does not heal through a technique.
A horse heals through understanding.
Through connection.
Through clarity.
This is how the approach I live today came into being: body, nervous system, and energy system belong together — always.
Today – My Holistic Approach
Since 2016, I have been working in my mobile practice, supporting horses and their humans across three interconnected levels:
- Body
- Nervous System & Trauma
- Energy System
I specialize in horses who fall through the cracks of the system, who are stuck in recurring patterns, or whose root cause lies deeper than what is visible at first glance. I guide horses and their humans toward a place where regulation, healing, and truth become possible again.
Why Natural Spirit?
Natural Spirit describes how I live, work, and perceive.
I am deeply connected to nature. Many of my clearest insights have emerged in moments spent barefoot on forest paths with my animals, wandering through mountains, or standing by the sea — connected to earth, wind, water, and silence.
Nature is my teacher. It shows how healing works:
clear, simple, unaltered, in its own rhythm. With every question — whether physical, energetic, or emotional — I first ask:
How would nature resolve this?
Early on, I also began to walk my spiritual path. Some of my teachers still accompany me today, and the inner work with myself is an essential part of what I bring into my work. For me, Natural Spirit stands for the interplay of nature-based wisdom, spiritual depth, and a clear connection to the greater whole.
For the trust that answers emerge when we attune — to the moment, to the being in front of us, and to the truth that lies within.
My Professional Background
My path with horses did not begin in books, but in the stable — through observation, sensing, and honest connection. For more than 20 years, I have followed this fascination and the desire to truly understand horses: their bodies, their nervous systems, their energy systems — and the subtle connections in between.
My background lies in the equine industry. I worked in international sport, later ran a rehabilitation center, and over many years continued my education in osteopathy, hoof care, nutritional science, equine biomechanics and movement patterns, energetics & healing work. Each stage revealed new layers. Each horse was a teacher.
This interdisciplinary background forms the foundation of my work today.
It allows me to approach a horse’s challenges not in isolation, but as a whole: recognizing patterns, connections, and subtle signals that are often overlooked. Today, I weave all of this knowledge into a form of work that is deep, clear, and effective — always serving the same purpose:
To support horses and their humans in finding BALANCE, CONNECTION, and STRENGTH again.
