My name is Vasiliki Pekridou and I live in this body the last 34 years. I have seen it and –mainly-felt it wilting, deteriorate, coming to zero point and flourish again.
My great love for our body and its secrets began in an early age. I was led to the science of Physiotherapy due to my father and I fell in love with the first lesson in our school, Anatomy. It fascinates me until this day. Simultaneously, I participated in athletriatic seminars and seminars on athletic injuries, while I never missed the conferences organized by the Panhellenic Society of Physiotherapists. I returned to my hometown in 2011, where I started to work with my father. The knowledge and the experience he shared with me for 10 years, are invaluable to me. At that time, I participated in all the seminars of Η-ΟΜΤ Greece in Manual Therapy in Athens (2012-2013).
Despite the deep knowledge of the physical body and the daily relating to it through diet and exercise, my health started to wilt. That was the fact that I now see as the catalyst to discover deeper parts of myself. Because of that period, I introduced myself to the science of Yoga, at first as a student who wants to manage the stresses of daily life. The new love was here to stay. I decided to go deeper and share the innumerous benefits of this ancient practice. I completed my trainings in Anahata Yoga Studio (500hrs YTT, Prenatal & Postnatal YTT) and until today, I participate in seminars and therapy circles with teachers of all over the world.
My health was coming back in slow and steady steps. Nutrition has been a marvelous weapon in my quiver to speed up the process. I got my certification in Holistic Nutrition and unlocked more secrets around Well-Being (Plant-Based Nutrition, Mindful Eating, Detox Protocols, Fasting, Herbal Support, Holistic Lifestyle).
My gaze turned to the ancient practices of the tantric tradition, practices with archetypes and embodiment, emotional intelligence and alchemy through the body, shadow work, healing and balancing the masculine and feminine energies and their patterns within us, vocal embodiment & vocal alchemy, womb healing and menstrual wisdom.
In 2021, while pregnant, I attended the seminar of Acupuncture for the Trigger Points of E.F.E.A. and the Craniosacral Therapy at Upledger & Barral Institute Greece.
In 2022 my daughter comes into my life and everything is put on a pause. In October of the same year, I return to the working field with a new training, the Women’s Circle Facilitator Training, by Aiste Anandi. Since then, I continue to hold Circles every month, overflowing with deep gratitude for our sharings and the power of our stories.
Feeling the deep desire to deepen my knowledge in the female anatomy and wellness, in 2024 I completed the training in Pelvic Floor Dysfunctions of the University of Patras.
For me, education never ends, especially when you work with human beings. I love long walks in the woods, reading, exercising and deep discussions. I am a great advocate of homeopathy and all natural remedies. What fills my heart, apart from being with my family, is standing next to people who want to remember their true nature, how wonderful and whole they are. To create safe and appropriate conditions so that this happens smoothly and effortlessly.
I believe that healing is within us all.
The journey of self discovery is perpetual. I continue to invest in myself and deepening my relationship with her because it’s the only way to offer the World the Highest, my best version. I believe that the way we meet ourselves, is the way we meet others. I invite you to do the same. Our World deserves it.
