Education and Professional Training: Pathwork Helper (2008–2014), Core Energetics Therapist (2011–2016), Ninjutsu Master (2002–2009), Yoga Instructor – Dragan Lončar Yoga School (2016), Illumina School of Meditation and Awareness (2001–2004), Silva Method – Level 1 (2000), Usui Traditional Japanese Reiki – Dave King (2012), Tui Na – Traditional Chinese Massage (Filip Manja, 2018), and advanced training with Milenko Ristić (2020).
My interest in personal growth began during my university years, at a time when very little information on the subject was available. My journey started with the Silva Method, continued through the School of Awareness Development and martial arts, and eventually led me to what had the greatest impact on my life—Pathwork.
The very first Pathwork seminar answered questions that had been with me for years: Why did the same painful situations keep repeating? Why did I react so emotionally to certain behaviors of others? The insights I gained were so valuable that in 2008 I began my journey of self-discovery. At that time, I had no idea I would continue my education for another six years to become a certified Pathwork Helper.
A Pathwork Helper is someone who supports people in expanding their self-awareness and understanding on every level of their being. I have been working with people for more than ten years, focusing on both psychological awareness and the physical body. I first discovered the importance of the physical aspect of personal development through martial arts and yoga, and later deepened this understanding during my Core Energetics education. Core Energetics is a body-oriented psychotherapy method that uses the body to release unconscious emotional blockages.
The essence of my work is the integration of the Pathwork methodology with Core Energetics.
Pathwork primarily focuses on awareness, while Core Energetics emphasizes both the body and awareness. The goal of both approaches is to identify and bring into consciousness the emotions and life experiences that became blocked during childhood. The foundation of the work is helping individuals recognize their behavioral patterns and the emotions that remained suppressed in the unconscious during that period. Particular attention is given to the hidden aspects of the personality (the Lower Self), allowing us to understand the inner resistances that block each person’s true potential. The ultimate goal is to help individuals discover, develop, and fully express their innate potential, enabling them to create a more fulfilling and authentic everyday life.
