My Story
Hi, my name is Carlijn Geluk, and I am dedicated to creating safe spaces where people can restore, remember, and rewire back into wholeness.
In 2018, I completed a Masters degree in Imagineering, a program that blends methods such as appreciative inquiry and experience design to facilitate processes of transformation. This study deepened my belief that transformation is not something to force, it’s something to nurture and allow for. I learned to create space for what wants to unfold naturally, whether in a personal practice or when guiding others. This approach has become central to my philosophy.
My path eventually led me to yoga, where I earned my certifications in 2020, and I continue to deepen my practice to this day. My approach integrates both yin and yang yoga, enriched by my studies in energy work. Yin yoga invites stillness and teaches us to navigate discomfort, while yang yoga builds resilience and connects us with our natural rhythms. Pranayama, or conscious breathing, anchors my sessions, bringing us into the present, It is here that we remember we are not just the waves, but the ocean itself; not just the clouds, but the vast sky beyond.
I have lived a full life, growing up in the countryside, surrounded by nature and animals, and having had the opportunity to travel the world. However, my life has also been marked by struggle and loss that have shaped who I am today. Overcoming burnout taught me the importance of healthy boundaries and authenticity. The loss of my mother continues to show me that grief can be a doorway to inner growth and light.
Above all, these experiences have inspired me to live more simply, in harmony with Mother Nature, and in alignment with my heart and soul’s authentic desires.
Luckily, I get to live a life that reflects these values. In the summer, you can find me in the Netherlands, hosting yoga classes and events. The rest of the year, my partner Wout and I retreat to Central Portugal, where we build our life in harmony with nature, living in tune with its seasons and rhythms.
I feel grateful to share this journey with Wout, a certified music therapist and pianist. Together, we create immersive experiences that, through our connection, open doors to deeper dimensions. By blending his live, intuitive sound and frequencies with my modalities, we intend to guide others into a space of presence and subtle remembrance.
At the heart of all that I do is the belief that self-realisation unfolds when we create space, when we dare to do less yet with more divine presence. It is in this sacred simplicity that each movement, each moment becomes Holi.
