About Me
My name is Illona
I am devoted to guiding people back to themselves — leading with the heart, grounded in ancient wisdom, and supported by the science of positive psychology and embodied practice.
​
My work lives at the intersection of inner alignment and conscious growth. I believe that when we create safety within, expansion happens naturally. When we reconnect to our bodies, our intuition, and our deeper intelligence, we lead our lives — and others — from a place of clarity and integrity.
​
Through retreats, mentorship, and holistic education, I create spaces where transformation is not forced, but invited. Where ambition meets awareness. Where growth is both powerful and sustainable.
Each of us carries unique gifts. Part of my work is reminding you of yours — and supporting you in living them fully.
My curiosity really rose when I meet my Guru in December 2015, Om Swami - this being is the person that I have meet that is the most connected to the world, through the knowing and the feeling - he doesn't just belong in this world, he participates in it fully.
This created a huge desire to understand and to move closer to this ability to live connected to everything that is - this is when I remember my path starting - I had curiosity in my head and hunger for more in my heart.
​
I am lucky for the fact that I have a great supportive relation with my relative, which enables me from a young age to meet amazing teachers and speakers that nourished this curiosity, through practices and understanding.
​
My own journey took a leap at the end of 2016 with a Yoga Teacher Training in Bali — a decision that marked the beginning of a deeper return to myself. What started as a 200-hour certification evolved into an immersive exploration of emotional depth, shadow work, and embodied awareness. For me it was a real step in.
​
From there, I continued expanding my understanding of holistic health through studies in Holistic Nutrition and later a diploma in Positive Psychology in Melbourne.
Travel across Southeast Asia, Oceania, Central America, Southeast Africa and Europe became part of my education — learning not only from books, but from cultures, people, and lived experience.
​
Over the years, I’ve continued to deepen my practice through energy work, personal development, and ongoing study in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Integrating ancient healing systems into my coaching to offer a more complete and grounded approach to wellbeing.

​
Today -
I create retreats in beautiful locations across Europe and beyond — spaces designed to reconnect you to your body, your truth, and your direction.
​
Alongside retreats, I offer yoga mentorship and holistic guidance rooted in embodied practice, positive psychology, and heart-led wisdom.
This work is not about escaping life.
It is about returning to it — with clarity, strength, and alignment.
