How to be magnetic

Life hits different the moment you start embracing your entire self. When you start realising your true worth and capabilities. The moment you start becoming true to yourself, and are clear about the ways in which you have been holding yourself back from expanding, is the moment your light starts shining through. The power to be magnetic is all yours. That magnetism of yours is sprouted from deep within. It won’t come through a new hair cut or fancy clothing (although, these outer things can be regarded as the cherry on top of the ice cream). But no, true magnetism is created from your deepest core – in a way it can be seen as your soul shining brighter, and therefore blossoming through, boosting your magnetism. I believe there are certain habits that we can adapt, in order to boost our power and charisma, without having to visit the hair dresser. Below you’ll find 5 ways that may help you step into your power, hence make you more magnetic. Incorporate life-changing healthy habits Healthy, daily …

What you focus on expands

”But, what if, you’re actually evolving simply by being. By simply accepting and surrendering to the moment. Don’t resist the moment, whatever it contains. Sit with it, observe it, be aware of it – don’t label it. Be with it. Let go of what you know, and let yourself be open to the fresh, the new.” Dear 2023, thank you for all the beautiful moments, the stillness, challenges and experiences. Dear 2024, I’m curious – I sense you will be filled with bliss, growth and laughter. Freedom. Love. What we focus on expand. So, focus on what you want out of life.

More acceptance. More love. More forgiveness. …

How to set healthy boundaries

In order to build your own personal and emotional space you need to know how to set and communicate healthy boundaries. It’s essential to establish and communicate personal boundaries for our mental and emotional wellbeing, and sometimes even our safety. But why can communicating boundaries be so darn difficult at times? And how do we set compassionate boundaries within our relationships? I believe it’s rather common to fall into a victim mindset once you realise you’ve put other people’s needs above your own. You start blaming yourself for not knowing better. However, this attitude won’t help you evolve. In other words, it can in fact be detrimental for your growth. Therefore, although easier said than done, try not to fall into a negative, victim mindset. Instead, recognize it as an opportunity to take your power back. The focus should be on learning and growing. Healthy boundaries – Compassion towards self. Why can setting and communicating boundaries be so challenging at times? There may be various reasons for this, and it depends of course on the person, or …

Discomfort – an opportunity for growth

”You’re being presented with two choices; evolve or repeat.” In any given moment we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety. Each time we’re faced with a challenge it’s very easy to become caught up in thoughts about everything that could go wrong, instead of being excited about everything that could go right. This mindset is to a certain extent completely natural, and our bodies and minds way of keeping us from danger, hence keeping us from stepping into the unknown. To fully embrace oneself, and to accept oneself exactly as one is, is a lifelong journey in and of itself. To some of us it might come naturally, without us even thinking about it. However, to others it takes a deeper kind of practice – something that needs to be nurtured daily. It’s difficult to not become caught up in the demands of the outside world; constantly comparing ourselves to others, or simply never being satisfied with who we are. As a highly sensitive empath I fell …

An open mind

”The eyes are useless when the mind is blind.” How to master the art of observing life with an open mind? Where others see either black or white, to learn to see the rainbow? Life is a spectrum of moments, occurring one after the other. Anything can happen. And it’s impossible for us to know what might be hiding behind the corner. We’re allowed to change – in fact we should; change, and grow. In line with each and everyone of your breaths you are allowed to be. Exactly the one you were meant to be. Open your mind Don’t care to be right, care to understand. Don’t expect people to agree with everything you say, expect them to have their own view on things. Don’t impose your beliefs on others. Accept all of life’s perspectives and realities, in peace, without judgment. ”It’s the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.” – Aristotle What it means is, you should learn to look at life with a bird’s …

5 ways to be more present

”Watch the seasons unfolding.” Introducing more presence to your day-today life has many benefits to your overall wellbeing, however, you don’t have to turn into a meditation guru in order to become more mindful. There are several ways by which you can invite stillness, and thereby welcome a more conscious awareness to your daily life. James Baraz puts it very nicely: ”Mindfulness is simply being aware of what is happening right now without wishing it were different; enjoying the pleasant without holding on when it changes (which it will); being with the unpleasant without fearing it will always be this way (which it won’t).” Below you’ll find five ways that might help you breathe a bit slower. – walk in nature – ”trust the seasons changing, trust your inner voice; it knows.” There’s a special thing being one with nature, whether it’s watching the ocean, smelling the forest, hiking in the autumn mountains, taking a midnight swim or laughing up in the air. Nature has a tendency to teach us plenty; she teaches us how …

5 habits to improve your life

”Now is the perfect time to start imagining all that you can do.” It’s never too late to implement fresh, new habits to your day-to-day routine. If you’re looking for a mini life-makeover, then, first things first, you need to start from within. In other words, start with your mental state, since most often it’s the root to all problems. If you don’t change what’s going on inside your mind – with your thoughts, and the way you view yourself and the world around you – then it’s going to be difficult to find a new sense of happiness, contentment and inspiration. Below you’ll find 5 positive habits to implement in 2024: Patience ”Allow things to unfold naturally.” I believe the main difference between successful and unsuccessful people is not the way they vary in their competencies, but the way they vary in their ambition, and desires to reach their potential. Persistence and patience is key, since good things usually take time. Embrace life. Everything in life happens for a reason; whether the reason is for you …

8 ways to get into a creative flow

It’s easy to lose sight of creativity when things don’t happen as quickly as hoped for. You might not see any results, something negative happen, or maybe you wake up one morning feeling unmotivated for no particular reason. In these situations it’s even more important that you hold on to trust, and try to see the moment for what it is – a moment to reflect, and recharge. Getting back into your groove again. One crucial thing to bear in mind when going through times feeling uninspired and unmotivated is to accept your feelings. Don’t take them too seriously, since they are temporarily, and you don’t need to invite them in for tea – keep the door open and let them pass. Don’t push yourself to feel a certain way, to be something you’re not. The lack of motivation is only a phase, and sometimes the only thing you can do is to breathe a little deeper, and take a step back. Even nature slows down during winter. And yes, this might make you feel …
