Hi, I'm Julia Schmidt
I have had several wake up calls to radically change my approach to life:
- In my 20's I was just searching for answers, and then I forgot.
- In my late 30's I got really ill, 'woke up' for a bit to the Universe knocking, and then I forgot again and went back to sleep.
- My last wake-up call to become ‘aware’ wasn’t earth-shattering. It was a still, calm voice in 2018 that said, “Look, you immigrated in 2016 to a whole new continent, and guess what? You created exactly the same life with exactly the same problems you had before.”
I woke up!
Today I am still deeply practicing the teachings of my Teachers. I am happy with who I am, where I am, and
what I am doing with my life.
I can show you how to do the same.
How?
By teaching you a new approach to life combined with the wonderful benefits of Qigong.
Education, Certifications, Teachers
Formal Non Spiritual Education:
Julia got her BA in English Literature, and then her Masters in TEFL from the University of Reading, England in 2005. She spent many years creating curriculum and teaching adults & youth courses in communication, public speaking & intercultural literacy.
The Journey in Energy Work Begins:
She certified in Pranic Healing in 2008 after she herself was healed from a serious illness. (However she did allow things to slip and got caught up in life again.)
But, Life came knocking again... (see my story below).
She changed her direction to combine her Teaching & People skills to become a fulltime Life Coach in 2022
So she certified as an NLP Practitioner - Headgear Labs -- Matt Barnett in 2022
Then she certified as an Integrative Life Strategist -- Phenix Center, Charlotte, NC in 2023
And she also certified as a Spring Forest Qigong Practice Group Leader in 2023
She is passionate about Energy and the Spiritual Journey
She considers the following people as her Masters and Teachers and has read their works and practices their teachings intensively:
Michael Singer - She has studied his books: The Untethered Soul, The Surrender Experiment, and Living Untethered. She has also completed his Going Deep Audio Series. He continues to have the deepest impact on her life.
Eckhart Tolle - She has read The Power of Now & A New Earth and has studied both his works in depth. She also completed his mini online course: Being A Teacher of Presence. He also continues to have a profound influence on her life.
Dr. Joe Dispenza - his teachings gave her the first impetus to change her direction and go into Life Coaching for which she will be ever grateful to him. After she read Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself and Becoming Supernatural, she went to a week long retreat and came back with a much deeper understanding of how energy moves us, and with an even deeper desire go into Life Coaching.
During this transition time, she was practicing the 5 Tibetan Rites and the 18 forms of Qigong for many months until she came across Master Chunyi Lin and Spring Forest Qigong. She read his book Born a Healer and then studied his 3 Levels of Qigong Home Study course and did the the 3 levels live online Certification course. She was so deeply affected by this form of Qigong that she continued and completed his audio program of Working with the Masters. Qigong and Master Lin continue to positively, profoundly affect her life.
All of these teachers have influenced and molded her into the intuitive and deeply passionate Transformative Life Coach that she has become. Her gift is that she can synthesize their teachings in such a way that she is able to meet each client where they are and provide the help they need to move forward.
My Story
My husband, myself, and our two kids left our home in Germany to come and live in the USA. We left for various reasons - many based on fear. We were in search of home, our home where we would feel welcome and safe. But we then recreated the exact same life, problems, worries, and fears that we’d had before. We even attracted the same kinds of people like we had known before. Amazing – you move a whole continent and nothing, absolutely nothing changes except the scenery. That is the secret of our energy patterns. If we don't change our energy, we always recreate the same life no matter where we are.
Then came our 'Dark Nights of the Soul.' Both my husband and I went through very trying times to build up our lives for our children in this new country. We could see we had recreated the same life; we just didn’t understand how to change the cause for doing this: namely our thought patterns.
How I changed: Enter Joe Dispenza:
By chance, I heard about his book Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself. I read it and started doing the meditations. It made complete sense. And three months later I got recruited into what was my dream job, doing what I loved and being paid a very large sum of money for it, more than I could ever have hoped for. But that was just the beginning. You see, unbeknownst to me, I created that job still based on the lens of my past. The deepest changes hadn’t taken place in me yet, as I wasn’t even aware of how deep my beliefs went. This perfect job turned into a complete nightmare.
Why did I bring this into my life? I didn’t do it knowingly, but it led me to an awareness of my even deeper patterns of fear and unworthiness. At one point the job became unbearable. I had the choice to quit and jump into the unknown or to change myself from within under very difficult circumstances. With financial existential fear being one of my biggest fears that underlies nearly all other fears, the thought of resigning was formidable. I was in a new country and was not sure where else I could work. We had limited funds due to immigrating, and I had no idea what I would do next. But staying in that job became almost impossible. I closed my eyes, and I jumped into the unknown and quit the job.
Paralyzed with Fear
I took the time to go inward. I used up a part of our savings. But we agreed that changing from within was the most important part now. I noticed each time I missed the opportunity to change, Life has given me a more difficult opportunity to wake me up. Stuck in fear of financial loss, I spent days that turned into weeks just being frozen. I did try to take the time to unravel what had happened to me in my last job. But my fear kept interfering and paralyzing me. My worries about the future, and what I would do overwhelmed me.
I spent the weeks and then months in self-discovery and meditation to uncover deep thinking patterns of fear and unworthiness. I took the risk. I trusted that at one point I’d have direction. I would know what to do. I literally faced the daily fear of our dwindling bank account and moved two steps forward and then one step back. But, I was changing from within, and I am still changing from within.
My Manifestation
After many months the clouds cleared and I knew what to do. It was like the fog cleared and I could see the sun. I am a born teacher; it is my first love. My life experience now merged with my almost 30 years of experience in professional teaching. I knew I could be a source of help to anyone who resonated with me. I had experienced deep inner change. I had understood at a very deep level how my patterns were reflected in my life and in my children’s behavior. This awareness let me turn our family life around from one of stress and conflict to peace and harmony.
I had overcome a layer of my fear and had entered a state of deep calmness. I am still working on deeper layers and I keep practicing the art of surrender.
How I can help you.
My ability to help & heal others, my experience, my training, and my intuition give me a wonderful basis to coach because I have an unusual understanding and love for people.
My own inner change has given me insight that is far beyond what I would otherwise know.
I never stop learning and going deeper within myself. I find that the deeper I go, the more able I am to help others.
This is your journey, and you can go through it to make those internal changes.
The power is all within you.
We all resonate with different people because of their energy. If you feel your energy resonates with me, then I will do all I can to help you find your own internal power to create a beautiful, abundant, and joyful life.
