Cindy Baensch

Cindy discovered yoga long ago, initially drawn to it as a fitness tool to master handstands and build strength. However, the universe had bigger plans for her life. It opened her eyes to the unhappiness of her city life, prompting her to leave everything behind and start anew in the Austrian mountains.

Though her new job wasn’t yoga-related, the serene mountain environment nurtured her practice and reconnected her with her greatest teacher: Mother Nature. She began incorporating breathwork into her routine and aspired to deepen her yoga journey, eventually completing a 2 month teacher training in India.

Around this time, she discovered Debra Silverman’s astrology, which became a transformative tool for her ongoing self-discovery. Eventually Yoga, astrology, and nature helped her gain fresh perspectives, understand herself and others better, and develop compassion for her sensitive nature, which she once saw as a weakness.

As a child, Cindy masked her sensitivity and shyness to fit in, unknowingly carrying this protective behavior into adulthood. It took her years to realize her sensitivity was a gift, not a curse. Though still a work in progress, she’s changed her inner dialogue, learning to embrace her true self.

Now, Cindy is passionate about helping others on their journey to self-love and belief. With the support of the Stambha community, she’s found a safe and welcoming space to share and serve with her personal experiences. Her mission is to guide others to stay true to their soul’s path, even during life’s toughest moments.
