I was born in a small village in the high mountains. My village is 2800 meters high, and here in the mountains, the forest is very rich and has many different kinds of huge trees. I am ZangQing and in my childhood, I grew up with sheep, cows, and horses. I am half Tibetan, half Naxi and in this area we have a lot of Buddhist temples. In my village, people speak Naxi language.

In my village, all the people are singing everywhere and every time. The village people sing, for example, when they go for work into the mountains or to their farming land, or when they let the animals graze in the mountains.

It influenced me a lot, and so it became my habit to sing the songs all the time. When I was young, I liked to sing the songs all the time. When I grew up, I became a singer.

Because of my suffering, I started in these years to discover myself more and more. I had a longing to know how the world works and what psychology and motivation are behind the behavior of people. I studied a lot about psychology, philosophy, Buddhism, and spirituality.

Even though I discover a lot about myself, the people, and I could change something to be better but life still has not really worked out. I have been suffering from severe insomnia for several years. My marriage and the whole life situation let me suffer a lot. In this part of my life, my intimate relationship was what made me most tired. I had made many changes in this relationship, learned, and constantly opened my heart to embrace this difficult marriage, but it is still full of various entanglements and internal frictions.

But in this situation, I felt deeply that I really needed help from someone and that I could not get out of my torture by myself.

Fate let me get to know a teacher, who is doing healing. She appreciated my singing and invited me to study healing. Finally, I felt that someone could really see me and what happened to me. That someone could see me attracted me so much and let me believe that she truly could help me overcome my traumas.

So I started to study with her. Every morning I went to her yard, and we started studying together at 7 in the morning, and my lectures ended mostly at 12 in the night. For one year, this was my daily schedule.

I studied conventional medicine and quickly passed the exam for a health practitioner. At the same time, I studied Chinese Medicine. My intensive studies with many famous teachers all over the world kept going for more than a decade, while I was already successfully practicing in my own clinic for more than 20 years. In these years, I also taught people Qigong in my weekly classes.

Due to my studies in China, I got an invitation to work in a Chinese hospital to develop a project that would combine alternative medicine and Chinese medicine.

After this project, another hospital invited me to work for them. This department has started to develop new ideas for helping stroke patients recover. For this, we used Chinese medicine in combination with high end technology.

On my journeys through China, I fell in love with the mountainous areas of Yunnan and Tibet. Finally, I lived there for many years and treated people there with Chinese Medicine and teaching Qigong.

In all these years, I have often had the experience that I am missing knowledge, skills, and methods to help people be more holistic. So I started searching for what I was missing.

What I was looking for was to release emotions, trauma and understand how to help people to train their minds and change their habits.

Therefore, I learned transformational breath work in Asia and Life Coaching in Europe and the U.S. With the Spiral, Sedona Method.

Our life story started in a small snow-mountain village. Already in the beginning, we experienced a deep soulmate connection, which surprised both of us. As Mathias had to go back soon to Germany because of the visa and Zangqing was married, we had only some moments to get to know each other. But when we met, we both experienced a very harmonious and deep connection with many surprising moments. Mathias actually did not like to go back to Germany but there was no way to stay longer in China, where he had lived 8 years.

Our chat was each time supportive, nourishing each other with a lot of respect and the intention to see each other. We faced a lot of challenges at that time, and it was also not easy to just talk on the phone for hours and months.

Then came the time when Zangqing got very clear about getting divorced and really finished this already long-term, not alive relationship. She went through this emotionally difficult divorce process very determinedly.

After Zangqing´s divorce, she experienced that she could not get soon into the next relationship, especially a new marriage.

Because we both talk about what can happen inside us and we are both very clear and aware of what is necessary for our inside development, Mathias could give Zangqing time and space. She started to travel and heal herself for a couple of months.

What really would work out between us was unsure, but we both kept open and honest with each other and try our best for good development between us.

When this year was coming to an end, we both became more sure that we wanted to seriously continue this relationship. In all our deep talks and challenges, we felt that our relationship was healing for us.

But we need to make the next step as we both find out that it will not give us the possibility for more development by continuing this relationship by phone. So we both made the decision to get married and live in China together. In December, Mathias came back to China after 2 years. We both stayed for some months in the mountain village nearby Lijiang. One month later we get married.
