WHO I AM

Gabriela Ackerman

I followed my inner call. I have been interested in people since I can remember. I have synergistically perceived energy in the form of bright light and bright frequencies since early childhood. At the age of 5, for the first time, I deliberately asked myself what life energy is and how human beings could use and understand more of this life energie. I think I found the answer after a long way for me or at least I have learned a lot about it. I put all my knowledge and my decades of experience at your disposal . I love people and have dedicated my whole life to the subject of human, body, soul, mind, healing and voice.

I studied singing in Basel and Zurich, later in Vienna. I also have diplomas for applied voice physiology (Lichtenberger Institute Germany), as medical MPA, as a teacher (teacher), as a psychological body therapist (body psychotherapy in biosynthesis) and as a body-oriented trauma Therapist (SE).

I learned a lot about body perception in countless hours. For this I was lucky enough to have learned directly from the founders of a method. This concerns the practical voice physiology, SE, biosynthesis, Biodynamik, Pilates (last direct pupil), Fascienwork. A course lead about sound and healing and the  deep friendship and exchange with Dr. Peter Levine also enriches my life in a wonderful way.

After many years I developed a new concept with the model and the method “The Human Key ©”. This model works with a different use of the two older brain areas and the associated emotional intelligence versus the instinctive body intelligence for the inner truth and the inner knowledge. The focus of the oldest brainarea, the vegetative nervous system and the nervous vagus in the brainstem combined with voice in the same brainarea are my key for new very efficient ways.

I am an experienced expert in the function of vocal tone, bio-psychological body language, body and character typology, trauma, panic, stress and anxiety symptoms. With my rentable BALI-HAUS in Switzerland, with the help of wonderful people I created my own world as an inspiring oasis for health, art, medicine and beauty.
