I’m Malin.

My interest in the body and the healing arts began in my late teens, through my own search for relief. I had lived with chronic pain and fatigue from a young age, and over time this got more and more in the way of the things I loved doing. Eventually, that search grew into a deeper fascination with the body, psychology, healing and how the life force moves within us.

In my twenties, that fascination led me to begin training in natural medicine and therapies. Over the years, my path has continued through bodywork, psycho-spiritual practices, yoga and movement, group facilitation and authentic relating, and eventually into work with the nervous system and trauma.

Many things along the way have shaped how I understand and work with the body. Some have left particularly clear threads. Bowen Therapy taught me about the body’s remarkable capacity for self-regulation and self-correction, and that less can be more when the input is offered at the right time and in the right place. A sensation-based yoga practice (Dynamic Yoga Method) taught me to listen more closely to my body’s language of sensations, and to respond to what I felt.

My encounter with Somatic Experiencing marked another turning point. I began to understand and experience for myself how profoundly the autonomic nervous system can shape how we feel and function. Gradually, I found more energy, more capacity and a greater ability to be present with myself, with others and with life. And once again, I was reminded that less can be more, and that sometimes going slower allows change to happen more quickly. A great paradox of life.

I continue to discover new layers in my relationship with my body and what it means to be present within it. That ongoing exploration shapes both how I live and how I work.
