Meet Elena

Elena Franz

“For the first time, I found my balance not outside of myself — but within. That shift changed everything.”

The story

From performance to presence.

For over 8 years, I worked in international consulting and management — constantly moving, living in new cities, thriving on pace and performance. I loved it. Until the winter of 2022.

Sent to Chicago for an expansion project, I found myself unable to arrive. The usual ways of restoring — travel, novelty, movement — no longer worked. In that emptiness, I discovered meditation, then yoga, then sound.

The shift from finding rest externally to finding it internally changed the direction of my life.

A one month teacher training in Indonesia confirmed what I already knew. What followed were months of deepening — in India, in Germany — each training bringing me closer to what I wanted to share. In April 2025, I founded Spiral Origins — to bridge the gap between the high-performance world I knew intimately, and the practices that had quietly changed my life.

Today I work with individuals and organizations across Europe, translating neuroscience, sound, movement, and sensory science into practical, embodied experiences — grounded enough for the boardroom, deep enough to matter. Because sustainable performance always begins with coming home to yourself.
