SOMATIC EMOTIONAL ALCHEMY
TRANSFORMING RAW EMOTIONS INTO CONSTRUCTIVE, HEALING ENERGY
The New Currency:
Emotional Intimacy
I truly believe that we're at a turning point in our journey as humans. Emotional well-being is becoming more and more crucial, not just for ourselves but for the world at large. When we start to really tune in to ourselves, and dare to cultivate true intimacy, something incredible happens — we unlock this potential to change not just our own lives, but the lives of everyone we touch.
I have this dream: I dream of a world where we value emotional intelligence and intimacy just as much as we value knowledge and intellect. Picture it: communities built on empathy, where everyone feels truly seen and heard.
And in this world, our relationship with ourselves, with each other, and with the planet is all connected, creating this beautiful tapestry of love and compassion through playful yet responsible relating.
I know happiness is available for all of us right here and right now. And I am here to experience play as a way of being and a pathway to emotional sovereignty.
Now, come with me on this journey of love because you deserve to feel your entire life has been a success.
Hi, I am Katrin. Your Somatic Specialist & Emotional Intimacy Guide.
On my journey, I found spirituality, metaphysics and energy healing helpful, but they didn't fully help me understand my emotions. Talking about my pain never fully did the trick either. Not much changed, I kept repeating the same patterns.
I got curious and wondered: What if most of what we've been taught about emotions and our bodies is wrong? What if healthy anger protects ours heart, and healthy fear brings deep intuition and safety? And our bodies can safely hold intense emotions, and chasing only joy can disconnect us from life?
These questions changed my world and helped and are helping me explore where I block intimacy and how I can open up to more connection with myself and others. And because I care about honest & authentic connections, I want to share this work with you.

Katrin has proven to be as impactful to the journey of my life as understanding the significance of water. She is a walking mystic that doesn't really know it. Her calm demeanor and heart-filled with so much compassion has been truly healing to me and the wounds I was carrying when we first connected. We both marvel at the progress I have made in such a short time of working together.
She is not made of the convention for deadlines and clocks. She is on another dimension and only those truly in that sphere can understand her abilities.
She is very professional and understanding with a mammoth amount of great ideas that abound. She has a way of understanding our human experience and is able to put it into basic words for us laymen to understand. Our weekly conversations over the course of more than a year has had a significant and positive impact in all areas of my life; professionally, personally, and spiritually. My family relationships have shifted from a complete and utter traumatic mess to a bright and lightness that I sometimes marvel, "is this real, is this my life now?" Her capabilities go beyond coaching, she has helped me navigate my way up my mountaintop and I am forever changed. I am excited to see how far she can go in impacting the world as I believe the world needs more Katrin Piepenbreier.

As a long time meditator, I have gone through periods where the juice was lost from my practice. I met Katrin during one of these periods and it has truly changed the course of my self-understanding in spirituality — and also, in life — many of us live in our heads, mentally fixating on outcomes and desires to the point of exhaustion. Katrin helps her students loosen the grip of the mind, instead directing us towards the wisdom of the body. Through meditations, movements, breathwork and ritual, Katrin has awakened me to the vast intelligence of my physical being.
In addition to her workshops, I’ve also had the pleasure of attending a 10-day silent retreat with Katrin. She brought unique practices and rituals that not only diversified the long days of meditation, but allowed me to go even deeper into the states of conscious I was cultivating on my meditation cushion. Ritual can have major transformational and alchemical effects on a spiritual person — and Katrin is undoubtedly one of my favorite ritual facilitators of all time. With her unpretentious wisdom and nurturing demeanor, Katrin brings creativity to the ritual structure, offering prompts, movements and gorgeous environments to help her students move deeply into the practice.
What I love about Katrin is her desire to empower students to heal themselves. Upon returning to my everyday life back in New York, I have now become more aware of when stress is accumulating in my body. Katrin has given me practices I can do on my own to locate the stress, to shake it off and to come home to my true being, the one that lies beneath the activity caused by the mind."

Over New Years Eve I spent a 10-day silent retreat under the guidance of Katrin and I am so happy and grateful for this experience. When I try to put it into words, I notice that I think to myself: this all sounds too good and superlative to be true. But that's how it was for me.
Katrin teaches not only through methods and formal teachings but through the immediate effect of her presence, grounded connection and clarity. Her methodological portfolio, her richness of knowledge and her accessible and exciting way of teaching is remarkable in itself: a variety of guidance and instructions in meditative experience, yoga styles, mystical poetry, yogic background knowledge meet contemporary and organic approaches like embodiment work and psychological therapeutic understanding.
Katrin embodies what she conveys and teaches and her solidity based on many years of conscientious practice and self-experience is an immediate teaching device. Her language is crystal clear and direct. At the same time she is modest, calm and friendly.

Katrin is an amazing teacher! I have spent a beautiful 10 days Silent Retreat with her. She holds the space with so much love, attention and intimacy. I especially loved her somatic classes, felt so safe and free to express myself, to be myself, to let go and express and explore my emotions and body.
Katrin also organised a mindblowing New Years Ritual full of poesy, inner connexion and movement. A several hours ritual with cacao, rose petals, fire and lovely music. My best New Year ever!
She is very professional and her soft and warm voice will help you go on a deeper lever in meditation and connect to your essence. Highly recommend lovely sister Katrin!"
Nathalie F., Yoga Teacher
I attended a silent retreat with Katrin. The silent retreat was a wonderful mix of silence, meditation, yoga, embodiment exercises and inputs on all life topics.
This offer is unique for me so far. I have attended Vipassana retreats before and I have missed the inclusion of body movement. In addition, the retreat was designed to open the heart. For this we have learned great meditations and practices.
Katrin is such a wonderful heartfelt person with a great charisma. She made me feel very comfortable. In addition, she responded to me very individually and picked me up well. Thank you Katrin for this wonderful silent retreat.
