Embracing silence

Publicerat av

”A quiet mind is able to hear intuition over fear.” In a world that is constantly on speaker mode, or so it seems. Noice, opinions, judgments, the news. Look here, read this, like this, validate me, think this, believe this, be this. Be still. Be aware of what you consume. You can choose what information houses your brain. However, I agree, it can be difficult to find moments of peace and rest when we’re constantly being bombarded with stimuli. But without the comfort of the silence we won’t find the answers we are looking for. You see, the answers you seek, already rest within. If you only took the time each day to simply sit with yourself, to enjoy your own precious company, you would eventually realise the wisdom that lies beneath all those outer, dense layers you have collected throughout the years. I don’t mean that you can’t be inspired by others, and seek stimulation from the external. Of course you can! And you should. Inspiration and worldly experiences are amazing and make us …

Dear March…

Publicerat av

… give me a winter to wake up, and deserve you. ”I just want to breathe in the ocean for a little while, forever.” Can you hear spring whisper softly in the garden? Her warm caress melting frozen hearts. Time to be bold, take the leap and know, on cloudy days the sun is still there, underneath. Darling, I believe we’ll become dearest of friends. I wish to see you laugh. I hope you make me laugh. Oh how you melt my heart – come, dance with me. Darling, spin with me. And before I fall asleep, remember, gently kiss me on my cheek, and know, you’ll always be the one I seek. March is for the sun so boldly shining. Coming alive. Quietly crying for the moon, and the stars. Time standing still, frozen, for us. Snow will be falling, flowers start blooming. A precious mix when nature can’t decide. 4 am, and my mind intense, the breath calm. Smelling hope, kissing the soft morning rain, moving with the waves. They say she loves too …

9 ways to turn your day around

Publicerat av

”Find the courage to let go of what you can’t change.” We’ve all been there – feeling unmotivated and uninspired. Stuck in our own minds. But know that you can take your day, and life, in a new direction at any time. Even the smallest of changes, and adjustments can turn a mundane routine into a new exciting one; it’s all about perspectives. Every now and then it’s good to change things up, to keep thoughts and routines fresh, in order to stay motivated and inspired. It’s easy to become under-stimulated if you keep on doing the same things over and over again. And when things don’t happen as quickly as you would have hoped for it’s easy to lose the creativity, and the motivation to move forward. You might not see instant results, something negative happens to you or you might just wake up one morning feeling unmotivated for no particular reason. In these situations it’s even more important that you hold on to hope, and try to see the moment for what it …

A child-like wonder

Publicerat av

At times it’s easy to lose touch with the simple pleasures of life. However, don’t let the stresses of grown-up life overshadow the child-like wonder that resides within you. Nurturing your curiosity and awe can bring immense joy and positivity into your life. Children possess an innate ability to find wonder in the smallest of things—the beauty of a butterfly, the sound of raindrops, or the taste of a favourite treat. As we grow older, such moments of enchantment can become scarce, but know, they are not lost forever. By consciously cultivating a child-like wonder, you can rekindle the joy that comes from experiencing the world with fresh eyes. One way to tap into your inner child-like wonder is to slow down and allow yourself to be present in the moment. Children are experts at immersing themselves fully in whatever they are doing, whether it’s playing with toys, exploring nature, or engaging in some kind of imaginative play. As adults, we can learn from this by setting aside time to engage in activities that spark …

How to embrace slow living in your everyday life

Publicerat av

”A quiet mind is able to hear intuition over fear.” The present moment – the only moment there is for us to be alive. Humans are very good at preparing to live, but not very good a living. Habitually dwelling in the past and dreaming of the future, while having difficulties concentrating the mind on the present moment. The concept of slow living has never been more relevant. As we navigate the fast-paced currents of 2024, the slow living movement urges us to pause, breathe, and savour the simple joys of life. Slow living is about creating time, space and energy for the things that matter most to us in life. It’s about taking the time to do things properly, and thereby enjoy them more. Allowing ourselves to be fully present. I think it was Socrates who said: ”The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less.” There are of course many mindsets one can incorporate in order to embrace a slower kind of …

The Power of Finding Your ”Why”

Publicerat av

It’s easy to get caught up in the ”what” and ”how” of our actions. We set goals, make plans, and follow routines without always pausing to consider the most vital aspect: our ”why.” Why do you do what you do? What is the driving force behind your actions and decisions? Finding your ”why” is like discovering the compass that guides you through the journey of life. It’s your innermost motivation, the purpose that moves you forward in challenging times and keeps you grounded during successful moments. A clear purpose Understanding your ”why” provides clarity in your purpose. It gives you a deeper insight into your passions, values, and beliefs, helping you align your actions with your innermost self. When you know why you do what you do, every decision becomes intentional, and every step takes you closer to a more meaningful and fulfilling life. Motivation during Challenges Life is filled with setbacks and road bumps. And it’s during these challenging times that knowing your ”why” becomes a powerful source of motivation.

How to Master the Art of Manifestation

Publicerat av

What you send out into the universe – through your thoughts, feelings, words, actions – you attract into your life. Cultivating an abundant and positive mindset, visualization and intention-setting, are all great ways in order to start creating the life you want. It’s about shifting your focus, shifting your perspectives. It’s about being able to turn a negative day into a great day, simply because you choose to. Simply because you can. Nevertheless, it’s not enough to simply think, write or speak about the things you want in life, however, it’s a vital start. What is more, you have to believe, in order to receive. If you don’t believe in yourself and all that you’re capable of, nothing much will grow out of it. What is more, you’ll have to begin to take inspired action. You actually need to take that tiny frightening first step, not knowing where it will take you. Yes, manifestation is more than just wishful thinking; it involves aligning your thoughts, feelings, and actions with your goals to bring about positive change. …
