Yoga
What is yoga?
Yoga is an ancient practice that connects body, mind, and soul.
The word "yoga" comes from Sanskrit and means "connection" or "union." Yoga includes physical postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), meditation, and mantras. All of this is aimed at cultivating inner peace and balance.
Yoga enhances body awareness, builds strength, supports mental clarity, fosters emotional stability, and reduces stress. This contributes to long-term wellbeing. Even small daily steps can have a lasting effect. What matters most is consistency.
What does yoga mean to me?
Yoga deepens my connection with myself, with others, and with the world around me. For me, it's a respectful and compassionate way of living.
By regularly practicing yoga poses (asanas), my body has gained strength and stability. Yoga helps me to perceive my body more consciously. It regulates my nervous system, teaches me to act with intention, and to attentively feel what my body truly needs. Yoga also calms my mind, helps me breathe more consciously and brings greater peace into my life.
To me, yoga is a foundation for balance, presence and self-care.
What do my yoga classes look like?
I teach a traditional form of yoga that I learned in India. My yoga classes focus primarily on breath and awareness.
You will learn to listen to your body, recognize your boundaries, and respect them.
In my classes you consciously take the time to integrate rest and balance into your life.
In today’s fast-paced society, it is especially valuable to cultivate slowness and calmness as essential resources.
Over time, you will become more resilient - mentally and physically.
I offer:
-
Yoga poses – soft, flowing, and sustained movements that build strength and stability
-
Breathing exercises – pranayama techniques that support inner peace and presence
-
Relaxation – targeted practices to calm the nervous system and cultivate balance
I teach at the following locations:
-
Anouk Prop (Bredestraat 1c, 6211 HA Maastricht, Netherlands)
-
Earth Tone (2e Carabinierslaan 132, 3620 Veldwezelt, Belgium)
More information can be found on the websites of these locations.
Do you have any questions, or would you like to book me for personal sessions or external events? Feel free to get in touch with me.
Cacao & Connect
During Cacao & Connect, we consciously take the time to connect with ourselves and others. We slow down, reflect, and create space for connection.
In a safe and supportive environment, space is created for sharing, listening, and relaxation.
Together we enjoy high-quality cacao from Colombia, known for its heart-opening effect.
This is followed by a mindfulness or awareness exercise that contributes to relaxation and inner peace.
A guided reflection exercise invites you to explore your personal goals, thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

Psychedelic Guidance
What is psilocybin?
Psilocybin is the active compound found in psychedelic truffles. After ingestion, it is converted in the body into psilocin, which binds to serotonin receptors in the brain and initiates consciousness-expanding processes.

Preparation, Journey & Integration
1
Preparing for a psychedelic journey
Proper preparation is essential for a safe and meaningful experience.
During the preparatory session we will discuss both mental and physical preparation, as well as the itinerary for the journey itself. We will also review the questionnaire you completed beforehand.
You will get acquainted with me and the space where the journey will take place. The conversation is tailored to your personal needs, intentions and goals. Any other questions you may have will also be addressed here.
2
The psychedelic journey
A psilocybin journey can be profound and transformative, often characterized by visual, emotional, and spiritual experiences.
Possible effects include:
-
Deep emotional insights - intense self-reflection
-
Sense of unity and connectedness – the feeling of self may dissolve
-
Visual and introspective experiences – vivid imagery and new perspectives
-
Deeper understanding and processing of emotional responses
3
Integration of the experience
For a long-term positive effect, it is essential to integrate the insights you have gained into your daily life.
In this session, we take the time to consciously reflect on your experiences and explore ways for sustainable application in your life.
A psychedelic journey can provide valuable impulses to shape your life with authenticity and awareness. However, it's not a quick fix and does not replace the inner development process. Therefore, the responsibility lies with you to weave the experience into your life with care and intention.
