The Power of Silence

Publicerat av

I never found the stillness, nor the silence, to be empty, frightening, in fact, it’s always filled with answers, ideas and directions. The more stillness I’ve invited, the more I’ve realised its profoundness. Redirecting our focus inwards, allows us to tap into the vastness and limitlessness that resides within us. People are so familiar with noise, distractions, sounds, interruptions and opinions, that silence has become rare, and sometimes even disturbing. Silence is a powerful tool because people don’t expect silence. People expect argument, disturbance, debate, and they seek every opportunity to be right, to have the final word. Make them uncomfortable, hence, let them become aware, before they act. Become aware of the peacefulness that surrounds the moment. To master silence is to master your voice, it’s to master your surroundings and it’s to master yourself. Make space for silence, and you’ll make space for sensational thoughts to enter. Whenever I want to gain some new inspiration, and allow new thoughts to enter, I free write. It can be about absolutely anything. It can start …

Dear September…

Publicerat av

… and my heart melted. ”While some people like to dance underneath the stars in June, others like to play with the red leaves of September, And I’m blissfully, wholeheartedly stuck in the middle.” … And like the wisest of them all, you’re letting go of what no longer serves you. Your brisk wind makes everything rejuvenating. The days; alluring and brightful, the nights; dark and calm. I see a star waiting to be born, intentions waiting to be established, a nature waiting to be cherished, and a life waiting to be lived.  September is for watching red leaves falling. Creating space. Caring for oneself, and others. Just like nature, we transform. Becoming whole, empowered and complete. Putting positive intentions into everything we do. Silently witness the beauty of nature – notice how seductively and effortlessly she’s unfolding her treasures. Fearless. September is for enjoying the darkness, as well as the bright light within. It’s for grasping opportunities. Looking within for happiness, success and courage. Sometimes the things we want the most are closer than we think. …

Dear August…

Publicerat av

… you make me feel at home. At home in this restless soul of mine. ”Darling, if you want to know love you must lose your fear of life.” The leaves shine bright in warm golden light. Utterly mesmerized, while watching summer falling artlessly in love with the early breaths of fall, whispering final words of goodbyes. Be aware darling human, be aware, you’re shifting, like the softest, brittlest wind. Stay open, be alert, now, the perfect time for a rebirth. While I’ve always kept summer close to my heart, still and all I believe my soul breathes for fall. August is for faith. Love and compassion. Knowing one’s worth, and the ability to shine light in another person’s life. Taking care of the body, as well as the soul. Exploring new cities and friendships. It’s for constantly learning, constantly evolving. Small steps in the right direction. Appreciating every victory, every mistake. Blissful mornings. Dark, quiet evenings. Golden opportunities from dusk till dawn. The ability to inspire other human beings. Improving the quality of life. Challenging …

How to Elevate Your Life

Publicerat av

”Life isn’t about finding yourself, it’s about creating yourself.” Before stepping into your elevated self you need to take a moment to cherish and forgive the past version of yourself; the version that does not serve you any longer, the version that you have outgrown. Maybe there are things in the past that you are not proud of; decisions you wish you had not made and plans not working out the way you hoped for. However, without these experiences you would not be where you are today. Everything you have gone through has taken you to this very moment. So, please forgive yourself for being too hard on yourself, for always judging your actions and whereabouts. You are exactly who you are meant to be right now. All is well in your life. And now when we have cleared that out… It is time to step into your elevated self. 1. First things first, become clear about the limiting beliefs and blocks that are holding you back from achieving your potential and stepping into your …

The importance of staying true to yourself

Publicerat av

In a world that constantly tells us who to be, what to wear, how to think, and what to aspire to, staying true to yourself can feel like a radical act of rebellion. Yet, it’s the most fulfilling path to inner contentment and genuine connections. ”Embrace who you are at your core and let it shine forth in every aspect of your life.” But what does it mean being authentic? Authenticity means being honest with yourself and others about who you are, what you believe, and how you feel. It’s about aligning your actions with your values and allowing your true self to be seen, even when it’s uncomfortable or inconvenient. First Step: Self-Reflection Authenticity begins with self-reflection. Take time to understand your values, passions, strengths, and weaknesses. Journaling can be a powerful tool for this. For example you can begin to ask yourself questions like: Being Perfectly Imperfect Trying to be perfect will only move you further away from your authenticity. Instead, try to embrace your imperfections and vulnerabilities, and see how it will …

Take your power back

Publicerat av

Lately I’ve been noticing how much focus I’ve been putting on the external world. Like if something good happens then I can be happy, and not the other way around; I am happy -> I notice all the good already in my life, or good things come to me. Sometimes I find myself struggling with being happy when nothing fun and exciting is happening. I have been dependent on the outside world to be a certain way in order to be fully content. Hence, now learning to shift my mindset to just being, happy and content with what is, no matter what happens. ”I am exactly where I need to be right now.” – a favorite mantra of mine. Effortlessly existing without the need to chase anything. What is meant for us will come to us, as long as we stay open and take aligned action. However, being patient, is not my strength. Always wanting things to happen now, or even better, yesterday… But I’ve noticed that when I’m consistent with my daily habits I …

Mindsets for growth

Publicerat av

A healthy mind is a loving mind; towards the self as well as others. As life is constantly moving forward, moment by moment, we too need to learn how to best adapt to the circumstances and changes happening both within and without. Below you will find a few powerful mindsets to adapt in your day-to-day life to make it more prosperous and rewarding. An abundance mindset – growth mindset ”There is enough for everybody’s need, but not for everybody’s greed”. – Mahatma Gandhi There is plenty for everyone to go around. There is no lack in this universe; it’s simply a belief that you have been telling yourself all these years. Honor other people’s successes, be genuinely happy for people living their best lives. If another person succeeds, it doesn’t mean that there will be less for you. Instead, regard it as a source of inspiration. Just look at nature – she’s filled with beauty. Just look at the sky – it’s filled with endless possibilities. Just feel the earth – it’s filled with comfort. …

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 July…

Publicerat av

… hug me, I want to feel your heart beat. ”Sometimes I’m weak, scared and vulnerable, nevertheless, more often I’m strong, confident and alive. At peace.” July is for chasing dreams. Catching stars. Peaceful, dark summer nights. July is for late evening swims, enjoying the calmness of the sea. The calmness of the heart. July is for creativity, an imagination deeper than ever. The dark, dark sky filled with stars. Filled with hope. July is for believing in the power of nature. The power of humanity. Humid days and foggy nights. July is for beautiful souls searching for inner peace. Inner light. Loving kindness, curiosity and bravery. Everything is temporarily; the dark night, the softness of a new dawn. Flow with the current. Flow with the speed of light. Darling, be the light. Be the love this beautiful world so desperately needs. Find comfort within. Turn inwards, speak to your soul – let it out, let it dance. July darling, we discovered something lately. Something serene, spacious and still. To carry with us. Wherever we …
