The Power of Authenticity

Publicerat av

We spend our lives seeking answers, as if they were buried deep within others’ minds, only to realise that the truth isn’t a single right answer – it lies within us. There’s something truly magical about authentic people. They move through the world with unwavering sincerity, fully embracing their unique perspectives, passions, and values. And in doing so, they inspire and create space for others to do the same. Think about it for a while; The greatest innovations usually come from those who dare to think differently. Fully rooted within themselves, they don’t seek validation; they follow their inner compass. The path may not always be straight or easy, but it’s one that stays true to who they are. Breaking Free from the Fear of Judgment One of the biggest reasons people struggle to be themselves is the fear of judgment. But here’s the truth: No matter what you do, people will always have opinions. Some will support you, others won’t. Since judgment is inevitable, why not be judged for staying true to your most …

What Ballet Has Taught Me: Starting in My 40s

Publicerat av

Ballet est l’amour. I never imagined I would start ballet in my early 40s. Ballet belonged to another world—one of childhood dreams and youthful flexibility, of effortless grace and lifelong training. Yes, my teenage years were largely spent doing gymnastics, which undoubtedly provided me with a strong foundation. But something inside me whispered: Why not ballet, and why not now? At first, I discovered ballet through watching YouTube classes online, but eventually, I decided to step into a studio for the first time, feeling both excited and a little absurd – Ain’t I’m too old for this?! I was a beginner among beginners, and yet, I felt at peace. Ballet has been one of the greatest gifts I have ever given myself. It is not only the movement—It is a language of its own, a conversation between the body and the soul—spoken in French, a language I must admit I do not speak, at all. But I do speak love, and ballet, after all, is love. Every time I show up in class it teaches …

E-book: Relax, my darling, unwind – A Guide to Living in the Present Moment

Publicerat av

“Relax, my darling, unwind. You are coming home, to yourself.” The present moment – the only moment that matters, the only moment that exists. We humans are very good at preparing to live, but not very good a living. Habitually dwelling in the past and dreaming of the unknown future, while having difficulties concentrating the mind on the present moment. In a world that constantly pushes us to do more, be more, and achieve more, the idea of slowing down can feel counterintuitive. Our society glorifies busyness, and productivity is often equated with success, and that crucial rest is mistaken for laziness. But what if the true essence of a fruitful life isn’t in the rush, but in the still, quiet moment in-between? What if joy, clarity, and contentment are found not in doing more but in being present?

The Pause That Changes Everything

Publicerat av

As you plan for the year ahead and navigate daily life, there is one important thing to bare in mind – the power of the intentional pause. What do I mean with an intentional pause? It’s about taking a breather, that crucial pause when you reconnect with your body, and ask yourself; Is this in alignment with who I am? Is what I’m doing and feeling/thinking right now taking me closer to who I want to become? The more aware you are of yourself and your inner state, the easier it will be to make the right decisions. You see, when you are fully connected with your body, mind and spirit it won’t be as easy to fall astray. I am here now, in this moment. There is nowhere else I need to be. The intentional pause is about reassessing and readjusting if necessary, or simply about confirming; Yes I am right where I need to be right now. All is well. It’s not about judging yourself if or when you have fallen off track, …

While discipline and determination certainly have their place in your day-to-day life, please consider another, subtler skill that can transform the way you experience the world: the art of allowing.
