Hi, my name is Patrick Opaterny. I was born in Wolfsburg, spent half my life in different parts of Germany and have recently moved back to the north.
I come from a family with a mittelstand business background where it was to work for the automobile industry. However, that didn't appeal to me. Fortunately, after my civil service in a retirement home I realized: I want to study something in the direction of social work and economics. So I became a health economist and graduated in health economics. After graduating, I worked in geriatric care, asa quality manager in a hospital, and as a business consultant for process optimization. None of these jobs was what I had in mind, but I was completely at a loss as to what else I should do professionally and with my life in general.
Privately,I was very involved with the topic of spirituality, in addition to sports and music. There was a burning desire inside me to find out: Who am I? Why am I the way I am? And what am I actually doing here? To find the answers to my questions, I tried several things: meditation, yoga, breathing exercises, and empathy methods. Everything helped a little bit, but I didn't really get to the core of the matter.
That changed in 2020 during my first MindWalking session. This opened the door.By the end of the session, it was clear to me: This is it! I am doing the training and will become a MindWalking trainer! In the following years, I gradually discovered who I really am and what I want to do here in this world.No longer did I need to try out new things. Having found my path was extremely liberating and reassuring. Even issues that had occupied me throughout my whole life could be resolved after a session, at least to some extent. I have never experienced anything like this before with any of the other methods.
I now wish to pass on what has helped me so much. That's why I sought and received my professional MindWalking trainer certification by the end of 2022. It is fulfilling for me to support people in finding their answers, achieving greater clarity and thus embarking on their path to a more contented life.
