Cancer disrupted my life.
Healing reshaped it.
I’m Jasper, founder of Holistic Path.
My work supports people living with cancer and recovery in restoring steadiness, clarity, and trust in their own body — through grounded, integrative practices.
I never planned to do this work,
just as I never planned
to face cancer
three times.
What followed shaped how I understand healing.
This is my story.
2013
I was 24.
A golf-ball lump in my neck. Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
The diagnosis brought a strange relief, finally a truth I could face.
2014
Chemo took my strength and clarity, and I barely recognized who I was becoming. But I trusted my instincts more than the limitations I was given.
I turned toward nutrition, sports, nature, and silence. Slowly, I rebuilt from within. Ten months later, I reached remission.
2015
My strength was returning, and the transformation felt real. I survived a life threathing disease, but the aftermath was difficult.
I started meditating, fear and unanswered questions remained.
What if it comes back?
What does true health even mean?
I didn’t want survival — I needed understanding and safety.
2016
In 2016, I ran to Bali — 8 hour surf days, long nights out, and a stress I didn’t want to admit.
Then one night, I felt it clearly my intuition never failed me:
The cancer had returned.
I asked my doctors what caused it and why it came back?
They had no answer beyond medication and symptom control.
2017
That’s when it became clear:
The deepest healing comes from within.
This was the start of Holistic Path. I transformed my lifestyle completely; from what I ate to how I breathed, reflected, and studied. I discovered that true healing starts with a calm and steady nervous system. I felt strong and confident. I will survive, and with this path I will show others what is possible. Even if it wouldn't work, it is valuable information for all cancer patients.
Ayurveda helped me see my wholeness — every thought, feeling, and cell speaking to each other. One interconnected being.
2017
I felt the power of my mind and beliefs, and it led me into a period of deep silence through Vipassana.
There, buried experiences surfaced, and something shifted inside of me;
A profound sense of relief. A deep release. I cannot explain in words. Later, scans confirmed I was in remission.
I returned to Bali with a different energy — quieter, steadier, and ready to reclaim my life.
2019
This time, healing went differently, although I did excactly the same; I felt it needed more time, it will come!
YOGA guided me back to the basics:
Inner balance, authenticy, nourishment, focus, a calm nervous system. I immersed myself in YOGA deeply, a complete experimental science!
They opened doors into the deeper layers of being human — and being myself. Through it, YOGA became for me a path to wellbeing, peace, and unity.
2018
Life continued after remission, but after two years things shifted.
Stress, heartbreak, family struggles, no purpose, I was disconnected and could not regulate myself. I felt literally how the tumor was growing again.
The diagnosis was clear. A relapse, it reminded me how inseparable my thoughts, emotions and body truly are. Chronic stress is killing!
But also how deeply I could feel these shifts, and trust my instincts
2020
After a year of living with shamans, healers, and yogis, nothing changed — the tumor stayed small and stable.
Although I kept strictly practicing YOGA, I slipped back into a “normal” life: a good job, my own apartment, routines.
But something felt deeply off.
I became aware that I was blaming myself of causing the cancer.
Deep down I felt stressed and disconnected, craving adventure, nature, and real aliveness, not just sitting behind a computer and waiting for weekends.
2021
I wanted depth & unity — the true inner layers of Life. Feel, see, hear, smell, taste!
I started a coaching degree with Mindvalley, facing the parts of myself still asking to be felt.
Clarity and service became my direction.
Coaching showed me how naturally I could listen and hold space.
2022
In south Portugal, I found a quieter rhythm — teaching yoga, hosting retreats, and falling in love from a grounded heart.
The birth of our daughter, Aurora, felt like a vision I had once glimpsed during my yoga training finally coming alive.
I immersed myself in Holotropic Breathwork, Yoga Nidra, and transformative life coaching.
Here, love, breath, and purpose became my roots.
I felt deep within myself, there will come a solution!
2023
I took a life coach! Yoga, breathwork, and coaching became the pillars of my life.
Working with other cancer patients showed me how deeply these practices can improve our healing. The nervous system is the bridge!
But inside, the presence of the tumor kept pulling me into self-blame — believing I had to go deeper, eat cleaner, live purer, search harder.
Until one day a quiet truth emerged:
Maybe cancer is simply a chaotic force, not a personal failure.
2024
I always told myself I’d give it time — that new options would come.
So it wasn’t a surprise when my doctor offered a new trial a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
By then, I had built a strong foundation through nutrition, yoga, breathwork, and nervous system regulation.
I chose to combine the best of both worlds.
I visualized my healing, kept practicing yoga, ate nutritious, blessed the treatments, trusting it would support me.
2025 - now
Years of healing and coaching taught me a simple truth:
The alternative world can mislead, and the medical world can overlook the human whole.
I felt it was time to share what had become clear to me.
I began guiding cancer patients more closely and opened The Seed in Lagos, teaching daily yoga classes and leading weekly breathwork ceremonies.
Out of this work, Holistic Path took shape — a space for steady, integrated, whole-person care.
No chasing symptoms.
A grounded path for body, mind, and soul.
The Next Chapter:
After arriving into remission for the third time. I have found time and energy to use it for the benifit of others.
This next chapter of my life is about offering what has been lived and learned.
Supporting others as they find steadiness, clarity, and their own way forward.
I work with people in a life changing moment, offering personalized support that meets them where they are.
