Your life, plus three weeks of small experiments.
Self-care that’s fun to try. Let’s meet for walks, evenings and a private hour, added to your regular week. No retreat, no work, no time off, nothing to rearrange.
A small circle of 4 to 6 women, inspired by Manuela Stoerzer, Innovation Award winner, Calvià, Mallorca.
You did everything you should.
What do you want now?
The idea: you don’t overhaul your life. You test a few tiny shifts, like an earlier walk, a quiet ten minutes, one “no”, and keep the ones that suit you.
You leave with two or three small habits that fit your life, and a clearer sense of what you want from this chapter.
Walk. Play. Choose.
On my 50th birthday, my best friend, an Ayurveda specialist, told me: “From here on, you become either a mountain goat or a cow.”
The goat is lean, agile, a bit wrinkled, and keeps moving. The cow is soft, comfortable and in no hurry. In body and in mind.
Genes deal the first cards, and some of us are born goats, some are born cows. But much of it is still up to us: how we move, what we think, what we’re willing to try.
Ten years later I know which one I am: clearly a mountain goat. Moving, curious, and always looking for balance.
Our needs and priorities shift, often before we notice. Staying flexible keeps this chapter enjoyable, and flexibility can be practised. For three weeks, you add a few new things to your week. Everything else stays as it is. You see what fits, drop what doesn’t, and keep what works.
A playful experiment, right inside your everyday life. Kind. Light. Feeling first.
With me
I’m Manuela. For 25+ years I’ve helped people interrupt the habitual, gently and with humour. In 2006 I received an Innovation Award in Calvià, Mallorca, for my work as a walking specialist. Now I’m bringing it to Perth, for a first small circle.
Fits into your week
Three morning walks before your day begins, one evening at the start of each week, one private hour. That’s it.
Three weeks, three themes: Notice · Play · Choose. Each week has one tiny experiment, like walking the first ten minutes in silence, or saying no to one thing.
What we’ll do
Morning walks
Three a week, starting at 7 or 8 am, before the heat and before the day begins. You may be amazed how energizing, and not tiring, an early walk can be. Gentle pace, no fitness required, about an hour. We meet in the Fremantle area. Days and times are set together with the group.
Golden ShiFt Evenings
At the beginning of each week we meet for a relaxed evening to share, exchange and have fun. I call my part The Golden ShiFt show: a playful live experiment in which the stuck spots of everyday life turn out to be gold. Even shit is gold. There’s space for questions. Bring a friend, she might love it too.
Feel and Move
It’s not a yoga class for beginners, but an invitation to taste of a yogic way of living. Feeling comes first, the movement follows. Just small, gentle shifts that come from choosing to do things a little differently. Once a week or as part of the morning walks – what suits us best.
Your private walk-and-talk
One hour in week 2, just for you – personally. I listen, ask the question you wouldn’t ask yourself, and together we discover the next small shift.
In between
Feel free to WhatsApp me on weekdays, for whatever comes up.
Afterwards
You can start with private walk-and-talk coaching by phone at a discounted rate after our January gathering.
