Hi, I'm Michaela Tschudi, the founder of Mindful Journey. Mindful Journey born as a result of my own journey towards health which started in 2011 after having experienced multiple health challenges including autoimmune disease and multiple miscarriages.
 
I got tired of living in a world that treats only the symptoms and does not get to the root cause of the problem, and so I started my own journey of researching, studying, analyzing, going back to school to learn about health and putting all the pieces together. It was not an easy quest. Through all of this I realized that our health, happiness and well-being does not come just from one place, it is not just about nutrition and the organic food on the plate, the perfect supplements, getting enough sleep, drinking clean water, exercising but it is also about our connection to ourselves and the people who we are in close relationship with, it is about the way we perceive and respond to the world, our environment, different situations and people around us.
 
It is about the choices that we make every day; our thoughts, actions, behaviors and even emotions that all together drive what our life looks like as well as what our physiology looks like. It is easy to blame others, situations, and circumstances for our life, but we have a choice to ask ourselves “why is this happening FOR me” instead of “why is this happening TO me”. What can I take from this problem, what am I learning, what do I need to change? I learnt that we are the ones who create the environment for our cells and our body to either thrive or get sick. We are the ones who are in charge of what kind of relationships we have in our life, what kind of future we attract, how we can grow and what the quality of our life looks like.

Through meditation and learning to be truly present I was able to see what I was not able to see when I kept constantly “running around”. I was able to see and be aware of all the wounds and hurts there were just quietly sitting under the surface, old thinking patterns and behaviors that kept me stuck in the past. I was able to connect to my heart and live from the heart rather than the brain and channel the emotions of love, care, kindness and gratitude into my life. This is where all the pieces of the puzzle came together, and my health, relationships and my entire life started to come back to balance. I would lie to you if I said it was easy. And I would lie even more if I said it happened overnight. It was a journey and a process which at the end made me think that all of my hurts, pains and struggles were worth it because they brought me to the point where I am today. 
 
The power of self-awareness is the fuel for us to grow, that allows us to make sustainable changes in our lives, find the “purpose” and create our best life. 
All the research, studying, going back to school, eating healthy nutritious foods, changing my thinking and feeling patterns, connecting to myself, caused a big transformation and a big mind shift and made me find my purpose. It brought me on this path to helping people who are where I was once, help them transform THEIR lives, health, relationships and help them grow to their highest potential. I love what I do, I love helping others thrive, grow and feel love and help them realize that the power to heal and change their life has always been within them. Let me help you too!

It is my honor to serve you on your journey to health, balance and wholeness.
