Wat fijn dat je er bent!
Mijn naam is Manoek, en ik heb Studio Tree Of Life opgericht vanuit een diep verlangen om een plek te creëren waar je mag vertragen, tot rust komen en je energie weer kunt opladen.
Ik begeleid vrouwen – en mensen die zich willen verbinden met zachte energie – die worstelen met stress, burn-out, angst of andere vormen van mentale en fysieke uitputting. Mijn pad naar dit werk begon niet uit een leerboek, maar uit mijn eigen zoektocht naar rust. Ik weet hoe het voelt om opgebrand te zijn, om elke dag te leven met angst, spanning en een gevoel van leegte. Burn-out, depressie en overprikkeling zijn geen abstracte begrippen voor mij – ik heb ze van binnenuit leren kennen. Ik heb geleerd: heling begint niet met harder je best doen, maar met zachter worden voor jezelf.
My name is Manoek, and I founded Studio Tree Of Life from a deep desire to create a space where you can slow down, find rest, and recharge your energy.
​
I guide women – and people who wish to connect with gentle energy – who struggle with stress, burnout, anxiety, or other forms of mental and physical exhaustion. My path to this work didn't begin in a textbook, but through my own search for peace. I know what it feels like to be burned out, to live each day with anxiety, tension, and a sense of emptiness. Burnout, depression, and overstimulation aren't abstract concepts to me – I've come to know them from the inside. I've learned that healing doesn't begin with trying harder, but with becoming gentler toward yourself.
​
What helped me on my own journey now forms the foundation of my work: working with the body through yoga, regulating practices for the nervous system as an anchor, the power of being held in women's circles, and the deep healing of energy work.
​
The way I work is intuitive and trauma-sensitive. I believe in the wisdom of the body and the self-healing capacity that lives within every person. My vision is that healing isn't something that must or can be forced – but something that unfolds when you experience enough safety, gentleness, and support. My hope is that Studio Tree Of Life can be that place for you.
​
My background includes various yoga trainings (Hatha, Yin, Yoga Nidra), Reiki (levels 1, 2, and 3), training as a women's circle facilitator from my teacher Usha Anandi, Trauma-Informed Yoga training, and this year I'm deepening my knowledge in yoga therapy for women.
​
Studio Tree Of Life is a place where you're welcome with everything you bring with you. There is space for rest, self-care, and connection with your inner strength – at your own pace, in a way that feels right for you.
​
You are warmly welcome.
​
With love,
Manoek
