The most precious gift you can give to the one you love is your true presence.

Your mind on autopilot controls you like an unleashed smartphone. Learn to create wise distance and take back your power.

Today I ask you: Are you holding onto something that you’d be better off letting go of?

When we operate from a fixed mindset we believe abilities are innate and unchangeable, we see failure as permanent and we take criticism personally, whereas when we operate from a growth mindset we believe that abilities can improve through practice, we see failure as a chance to grow and take criticism as a chance to improve.

Why it’s so important to consciously set time aside to turn inwards and make space to listen to oneself.

If you’re stuck in your head not really paying attention you often miss out on enjoyable experiences. Here's an invitation to cultivate pleasure through all of your senses.

Our relation with our body is something to be continuously nurtured and developed – like any other relationship in life, it’s never static, and we never arrive – but that is also why we can change and focus on creating a great relationship with our own body.

Whether you believe in a greater force in life: The Universe, Love, God or not, there’s something to be said about our interconnectedness. Realizing that nothing is separate in life feels like our path to salvation.

To live sanely and holistically we need to embrace the dualities of yin-yang; rest and action, night and day, receiving and giving.

Diving into what makes social media valuable and how we’re challenged when navigating these tools.

It's human to have needs, but often we internalize something different. In this post, I share my own process and insights on how we can get in touch with our needs, and why it can be challenging to be open about them.

On the soothing power of touch.

In a world where everything seems to spiral faster and faster, I’m an advocate for slowing down, for bringing gentleness and compassion to oneself.

There’s a pattern that has followed me unconsciously for many, many years, which was about expecting others to make me happy. To pave the way for my desires and needs. I would dream of doing things and arriving somewhere in the future, but I would feel like it was up to others or outer circumstances to get there. In this post I share how I stopped giving away my power and took responsibility for my own life. 

Reminders to help us experience life as it is and connect to the natural flow.

We can work with fear wisely. If we explore and even befriend our voices of fear, then we have the ability to let courage be the ruler instead of fear.
 

In reality, we can do most things if we practice consciously. 
 

An invitation to slow down

Expectations can be toxic to our relationships. It's better to get clear on our needs and learn to get them met in a positive way.

I'm here to remind you; you don't

Did you change? Do you feel different? What did you learn?
 
These are some of the questions I’ve been asked after having walked about 800km - from Pamplona to Finisterre - on El Camino de Santiago in Spain.

The more we know ourselves the easier we can make intentional decisions about how we spend our days - and in the end our lives. As simple as it might sound there are often many subconscious patterns and motives that drive us, and from experience, we can really step into our personal power if we start to uncover and become aware of these drivers. ...

Every once in a while emotions pull me down, and my body becomes heavy. My mind circles around thoughts that generate negative feelings. Outlook is scarce, and I feel like running from myself. But I can’t. I stop. ...

I recently listened to a talk by Marie Forleo where she said: “clarity equals power”, if you know where you want to go, you can take action to get there. I couldn’t agree more, and at the same time I know how wanting to have clarity can also be our biggest obstacle to actually getting it. It sounds contradictory, but let me explain. ...

If you want the short version then I can say in one sentence what I’ve learnt about fear: that it doesn’t go away. But I can also tell you that fear doesn’t have to prevent you from going for the things in life that makes your heart sing.

Last month I committed to practice 30 days of gratitude. As time passed I noticed myself feeling grateful many random times throughout the day. Automatically. And I especially noticed gratitude in relation to other people …

For a while I thought that a morning routine had to be the same every day, so I would set this strict plan that I would keep for a couple of days or maybe a full week, and then I would start skipping my morning routine ...
