About Theresa Keller

Yogapsychological Coach, Feng Shui Consultant, Yoga Teacher and founder of within&without

Hey, I'm Theresa (she/her).

I love the smell of tomatoes from the garden.

I love pink-orange-violet sunsets.

I love deep talk.

I love to walk barefoot.

I love dancing. 

I love presence.

I love to be near water.

I love to listen.

 

I'm a Yoga Psychology Coach, Feng Shui Consultant, Yoga Teacher and system activist. I am passionate about holistic well-being, conscious leadership & new work, non-violent communication, sustainability and about system change in different areas of our lives.

 

I am a coach and a student at the same time and have been dedicated to my own healing path for many years. At within&without berlin  I am inspiring, empowering and guiding others who set up on their own journey.

​

My core values that I live and work by are love and freedom. With those in my heart I have created within&without berlin as a space to inspire you to create home and harmony within and around yourself.

​

What guides me is my vision to do my part in co-creating personal and collective transformation for a humane and regenerative future. As Rilke puts it: "...I may not complete this last one. but I will give myself to it."

Cultural Appreciation and Politics

During my Yoga-, Yoga Psychology- and Feng Shui trainings/studies I was and am aware that I am granted insight into ancient teachings and philosophies which stem from another culture. I know that I am looking at those from a lens of a different — white and Western — culture. I am immersing myself in those treasures with reverence and appreciation. Being aware of their origins I am doing my best to understand, to internalize and to teach, coach and write from a place of deep thankfulness.

 

I am also aware of my white privilege and I am doing what I can to create a safe space for all humans that I have the joy to guide on their way.

"There is a dance only you can do, that exists only in you, here and now, always changing, always true.

Are you willing to listen with fascination?

If you are it will deliver you unto the self you have always dreamed you could be.

This is a promise."

Gabrielle Roth, Founder of 5 rhythms dance
