Laura Schmitz was born and raised in Germany and is now living close to Vienna, Austria. Since her first Holotropic Breathwork® workshop she fell in love with this work and throughout her own process experienced the transformative and healing potential of it. For her, Holotropic Breathwork® is not just a method but a way of living life. Now she wants to give back some of the support she got during her own process.
Her professional background involves a master degree in agriculture science focused on horticulture and welfare of livestock and a certification in animal assisted (therapeutic) interventions (ISAAT). After many years of working in agricultural research, she is currently starting to run her own business as a self-employer and Holotropic Breathwork® facilitator. Besides that, she is holding workshops in horticulture for groups of teachers and also for school classes and is in her final stages of becoming a psychological counsellor. Her wish is to offer integration sessions with animals for Holotropic Breathwork® workshop participants in the future.
Creative expression, nature, travelling and music are very important to her. Besides that, she is interested in many different modalities of self-exploration like SoulCollage®, shamanism and self-compassion.
