From the Königsbrücken fashion dream to a happy life on Mallorca!
Berit Walter, 72, lives on Mallorca, practices Yin yoga and describes her life as fulfilling. An interesting path in life!
From the Königsbrücken fashion dream to a happy life on Mallorca!
A sparkling example of the joy of life can currently be found in Mallorca, where 72-year-old Berit Walter from Königsbrück discovered happiness near the beach. She has lived in the north-east of the popular holiday destination for years, just 30 meters from the sea. She practices relaxing Yin yoga there every day, which not only promotes her physical fitness but also her mental well-being. Walter describes her lifestyle as happy and fulfilled, which can be seen not only in her bright smile and cheerful look, but also in her youthful appearance.
The Saxon-born woman, who used to run a fashion boutique in Königsbrück, had originally hoped to experience a different climate during a visit home to Germany. But the heat back home proved to be similar, so she returned to Mallorca with a warm heart. Her choice to dedicate herself to yoga was no coincidence: in recent years, yoga has established itself as a popular way to harmonize body and mind, especially in stressful life situations.
Yin Yoga: relaxation and balance
The Yin Yoga that Walter practices is a form of yoga practice that focuses heavily on yin, the calm and stabilizing principle. It promotes deep relaxation and stress reduction by adopting long, passive postures that focus primarily on the hips, pelvis, and lower back. A typical Yin yoga class consists of poses held for three to five minutes, sometimes longer for experienced practitioners. The benefits of this practice are many: it calms and balances the body and mind, reduces stress and promotes flexibility. This is especially important for people of all ages and fitness levels because it is customizable and can be practiced even during injuries or after surgery.
A particularly popular asana in Yin Yoga is the seagrass pose. This not only promotes relaxation of the legs and back, but also has a calming effect on the entire body. To perform the exercise, pillows are placed under the pelvis while the legs are lifted up and allowed to hang relaxed. Ideal after a stressful day or to relieve leg fatigue.

Berit Walter shows that it is never too late to take new paths and surround yourself with what brings you joy. Her life on Mallorca, characterized by the daily practice of Yin Yoga, is not only a sign of joy in life, but also an example of the beneficial effects of this special form of yoga. Anyone who is still looking for their own balance can be inspired by Walter's lifestyle and perhaps find their own way to inner serenity.
