We think we live in our bodies. But how do many of us inhabit full-body awareness? Mental health clinicians know that trauma, stress, anxiety and depression can catapult clients into a myriad of symptoms, including insomnia, irritability, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, panic attacks, depressed body feelings, and more.

It’s easy to think that these symptoms can be healed by working with thought patterns and emotions alone.

The truth is that we live and dream in the body. Symptoms are of the body. Yet, we rarely consider the body as the source and inspiration for healing.

We perceive the world around us through our body responses. Not sleeping well, ruminating thoughts, worries about family or the future, grief and trauma have devastating health effects. The body is under attack, and we can’t heal the body with the mind only.

When we as humans are out of touch with our bodies, we are out of touch with life. Enhancing a client‘s body awareness is a powerful tool for transformation.

Sometimes we just need to BE there for each other.
Sometimes we just need to be IN resonance with one another.
Sometimes we just need a TOUCH to feel seen, held, and safe.

WINTER BREAK - some nourishing time away from daily occupations for inspiration, rest and joy.
20.11.2025 - 6.1.2026

I’ll be retreating for a little while this winter, cherishing time away with my family, before returning to the work with you in January, that I love so much.

Take a good amount of time for yourself during this quiet season of the year.

See you soon!

WHY WORKING WITH TRAUMA THROUGH YOUR SOMA (body) IS A KEY ELEMENT FOR HEALING:

Bessel van der Kolk emphasizes on a holistic and body-centered approach: In his work he highlights how trauma physically changes the brain and body, leading to a state of being „stuck“ in survival mode. Therefore it is essential for healing to re-regulate the nervous system through mind-body practices.

He is critical of therapies like traditional cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure therapy, arguing that they are not enough because trauma is not just a cognitive issue but a physical and emotional one. He believes that talking about trauma may not be sufficient to heal the deep, physical impact.

Somatic body work with focusing on working with Trauma emphasizes on initial assessment: When first meeting you, I will focus on your posture, eyes, and breathing patterns to understand how your primitive brain is still controlling your behavior and preventing you from engaging with the world.

One of the core principles we will work on is: SAFETY

The ultimate goal of SOMATIC WORK is to help you feel safe in your own bodies and minds, thereby regaining a sense of agency and control.

Healing involves shifting from a state of being constantly on alert to one where the body can be present and calm.

AYURVEDA FULL BODY MASSAGE

Ayurveda, the timeless art of living, offers a holistic approach to restoring balance and enhancing well-being. Central to this practice is Ayurvedic massage, which provides a deeply relaxing experience for both body and mind.

In your session, you will enjoy a traditional full-body massage with warm medicinal oils tailored to your specific needs. This therapeutic treatment lasts approximately 1.5 hours, allowing you to fully unwind and rejuvenate.

After your massage, you will be served a calming Ayurvedic tea to complete the experience. I look forward to sharing this soothing and restorative session with you.

Additionally, Ayurvedic massages make a thoughtful and cherished gift for anyone in need of relaxation and relief from stress.

Wintertime is the perfect time for this kind of massage. I am looking forward to giving you this very special treat of complete relaxation.

I love yoga: it is far more than just movement. It is a way to become fully aware of life - it is dedicated time to sense and be all of its dimensions, arriving in its endless flux of arising and passing away.

It’s depth and truth will always inspired me.

So thankful for the community .sanctuary_ , the trust and care, the love and respect for each other.

In 2023 I didn’t know how it will be to manage a community with 14-18 people. Now I know, that I love to share the sanctuary with you and I have to say, that all of you make it very easy for me to love my role as the main-caretaker of the place here.

Thank you: shiatsu

Embrace the Quiet - always!

Resting is a human need.

I wish for everybody in this world:
Peace. Care. Loving kindness. Understanding. Awareness. Openness for Change. Dignity. Respect. Love.

I hope that we will created this change - all together - globally - for us, for our elders, for our children, for our earth, for all living on this planet - so that we can soon breath in the needed fresh air 🌿

End the global massacres. Remember our shared humanity: we may be different, but we all long for love and peace.

We always have the choice to make a change!

„The greatest damage done by neglect, trauma or emotional loss is not the immediate pain they inflict but the long-term distortions they induce in the way a developing child will continue to interpret the world and her situation in it.

All too often these ill-conditioned implicit beliefs become self-fulfilling prophecies in our lives. We create meanings from our unconscious interpretation of early events, and then we forge our present experiences from the meaning we’ve created.

Unwittingly, we write the story of our future from narratives based on the past...Mindful awareness can bring into consciousness those hidden, past-based perspectives so that they no longer frame our worldview.

Choice begins the moment you disidentify from the mind and its conditioned patterns, the moment you become present…Until you reach that point, you are unconscious.’ …In present awareness we are liberated from the past.“

Autumn Retreat
25 - 28.September 2025
, Austria
Hosted by Barbara Walkowiak in.touch

In this sacred season of turning inward, you are invited to join a circle of women for an intimate autumn retreat—a time to slow down, listen deeply, and come home to yourself. As the trees let go of their leaves, we too are called to release what no longer serves, making space for rest, reflection, and renewal.

I am looking forward to spending some nourishing days together in nature with you.

Our Story

“To lead a happy life, you need to be in touch with it.” The idea of BE IN TOUCH started in 2015 as a personal project seeking to bring people in touch with themselves. Since then, the project has been growing in a direction that is very dear to me: connecting people with themselves and with each other. ​On the one hand, the inward journey aiming at creating time and space for personal growth and improvement is part of my daily work with clients, either individually or within groups, workshops and retreats. Together we can encounter our deep fears and pains. Together we share, learn and inspire each other. ​On the other hand, BE IN TOUCH is a community-based work, where people with similar interests meet and support each other. Moving away from a competitive way of working, this project's purpose is to contribute to an attitude shift where support, respect and will to listen to each other are the essential basis on which personal growth can flourish. Our team is growing...

ABOUT BARBARA

My journey on the path of training my awareness started in 2000. My first encounter with awareness-development techniques was through Hatha-Yoga, which became a dear and generous friend. Over the years, I have attended many Asana classes and silent meditation retreats throughout the world, diving into the secrets of Reiki with a Russian shaman or participating in training in Ayurvedic massage in India. In 2010, I discovered the Grinberg Method, which has now become one of the pillars of my professional daily life. From the very first session, I found intriguing that there be somebody capable of teaching me how to communicate with my body in such a way that I can, by myself, overcome any crisis. For me, this is freedom. After working as a Grinberg Method Practitioner since 2010 and founding with my colleague Daniela Rocher the community space RAUM FÜR NEUES in Vienna, I attended my first yoga teacher training in 2016 with master Prasad Reangnekar. I have continued with further education in 2017 at Yogawerkstatt Wien with Romana Delberg for Pre- + Postnatal Yoga, 2018 I completed my +300hr with Prasad Rangnekar in India, followed by the first part of Trauma Sensitive Yoga in 2019 with Joachim Pfahl. Both the Somatic Coaching and the journey into the science and philosophy of Yoga fill me with joy every day. I feel deeply grateful to teach and inspire people who have started walking on this path. It’s one of the greatest gifts when you realize, that you have the power to follow your heart within.
