Want to get to know me first?
Why is it so hard to do absolutely nothing for half an hour? Before she started at the Yggdrasil Shamanic School, Amina lived in a constant rush: chronic stress, one burnout after another, and an endless hunt for happiness through weight loss, cake baking and bodybuilding. None of it made her happy.
What if the darkness you fear is not dangerous at all? Amina came to the Yggdrasil Shamanic School with a childhood marked by violence and fear, a borderline personality disorder and a head full of esoteric chaos. Six months later she no longer had the diagnosis.
