Two hours...
During the first years of being a mother, (on good days) I had two hours to myself. Meaning, I had two hours in which a lot needed to happen, but nothing notable could in fact, happen.

Hello dear you, I'd like to write to you today about tapping into the softer sides of your beautiful being. My nature coaching clients and yoga students regularly tell me they choose me specifically because of my softness. How they love it when I gently invite and remind them to connect to the softer, warmer sides within themselves. To be honest, I didn't give it much thought in the beginning, but since more and more people come to me for this very reason I can't help but wonder; are people...

You are what you eat. We've all heard that before haven't we? But you are what you grow? Now there's a dimension I find mighty interesting! Truly growing into ourselves. It sounds so powerful and meaningful and beautiful doesn't it? Because that's what leads to true connection to people and the world around us. Which is something - at least in theory - we all strive for. But in reality it turns out to be a big struggle to be your authentic self, let alone show your true nature to others. So why...

I spent the morning yesterday in a rainy forest together with the dogs. It turned out to be such a healing experience. I let the rain wash over me, as I sat under a pine tree. I sat - and I cried. Later I walked - and I cried. Until I arrived at this big, beautiful old tree. One of its branches hung horizontally, just above my head as though it was an arm extended to whomever needed it. I needed it so very much in that moment. I faced the tree, placing the palms of my hands on it as I started...

It's great to have you back dear, Today I'm diving into a subject that is often perceived as selfish or luxurious, when in fact, the opposite is true. SELF CARE. You know, like, the caring of the self. Chances are you have a slightly ambiguous relationship with this tending to your own needs thing. And I get that. It's hard to do on most days and can seem downright impossible to maintain on bad days. Why is that you might wonder? Is it because of a lack of time? Or of resources? Or perhaps not...

Hello there lovely! Do you think you might be ready for a little digital detox time? Then this blog is for you! I'm going to admit it upfront; it feels slightly embarrassing to write about a digital detox. My younger 10 year old self would not have a clue of what I'm talking about here. She was too busy climbing up trees and playing with friends. My 33 year old, entrepreneurial self on the other hand, knows EXACTLY what I mean by a digital detox. Yup, so much has changed in 23 years and I know...

A kind and dreamy new year to you dear reader! The new year has only just begun, yet you might already find yourself feeling tired and discouraged (or even slightly panicky) by all the goals, targets and projects you're supposed to set out for yourself. And that's not a great feeling to start your 2018 with, am I right? Personally, I've never cared much for the habit of setting high goals or targets just for the sake of it. It appears a bit random to me to expect so much from a year without...

Hello dear! Do you sometimes find yourself longing for a life lived in simplicity? Do you have an image of what that might look like, but you only see hurdles on the road to get there? Are you aware of what narrative in your mind seems to withhold you from manifesting a life based on the principles of simplicity? If your answer to the first question is yes, then hurrah! This blog will bring you one step closer. If your answer to question two is also yes, then don't beat yourself up just yet....

Sometimes you can't change the fact that life gets scary. Lets say you're facing some major health issues, or you've just received some really bad news, or you're just seriously struggling in another area of your life. It happens to all of us and I want you to know you're not alone in this. In fact, I want you to know that your fear contains a very powerful message and that it's very possible to work together WITH your fear instead of fighting it, which lets be frank, is usually our first...

Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better... - Albert Einstein
