How to focus on your own timeline

”You don’t need someone else’s permission to live your own life.” It’s rather common for us humans to seek other peoples’ approval before we feel we are ready to do something. We might be doubting ourselves, and our capabilities, and therefore seek to be validated by others. Instead of living our lives according to our own timelines, we focus on what other people are doing, and what they might think about us. Leaving us feeling that we’re somehow behind in life. With that being said, if you feel that this is how you operate most of the time then it’s time that you start to use your energy to focus on yourself. Live your life according to your own timeline, and focus on what you can do today. This, however, does not mean that you shouldn’t allow yourself to be inspired by others; by all means, let people inspire you, surround yourself with like-minded, positive people who brings out the best in you. It’s by showing up as your most authentic self, that you will …

Intentions for 2024

”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. What we focus on expand. So, focus on what you want out of life. What do you want to see more of in this world – Then, go about to create it. Nothing good will come out of it if you don’t take action. It all begins with you. A healthy, peaceful planet starts with a healthy peaceful mind. There’s no room for quick fixes, but for an honest and consistent commitment. Creating for the highest good of all. More health. More acceptance. More love. More forgiveness. More …

You attract what you are

”I attract what I am, what I do, what I feel and what I think I deserve.” When it comes to attracting the life you want and desire there’s no shortcut – you’ll have to do the work. You’ll have to put in the actions needed for it to become a part of your future reality. But first things first. If you’re not happy with where and who you are in this moment it will become slightly more difficult to move forward. As you might notice, this is kind of a paradox – being fully content with where one is right now, and still wanting to evolve. However, I do believe it’s completely natural for us humans to expand and constantly want to develop. It’s part of the human life – it’s how we survive. We need to be able to adapt to the changes happening in the world, and we need to be aware of when and how we’re holding ourselves back. Embrace the moment But how does one become content with the present …

All is well 11.11

There is a force within us, around us, far away from us. It’s penetrating every area of our existence. Wherever we go, it goes with us. Whoever we are, it is within us. Whatever we speak, it speaks through us. Whatever we create, it creates with us. It never leaves our side. It guides us. Protects us. Believes in us. The universe and your intuition have a strong connection, powerfully linked. And you don’t see what’s right there in front of you. You don’t see the magic flooding underneath, the beauty and strength that’s waiting to be released. Your intuition is a powerful force, learn to listen, and trust it, even more. It wants what’s best for you, it always does. Believe in yourself. Believe that all you need is waiting underneath. Waiting for you to come out from beneath, darling you’re already more than complete. Trust that the universe is here to guide you. It always has your back. You are taken care of. Trust in yourself and in your abilities. Allow yourself to …

In alignment

”How your life feels is more important than how it looks.” Being in alignment – body, mind and soul – how does that feel? When does one know, one is in alignment with life? In this moment, here and now, would you say you’re in alignment? ”Let yourself feel the sun on your skin, the crisp wind through your hair, let your feet touch the grass. And your words, let them flow, gently, so kindly, within, as well as without. Let them be, who they are. Let go, create space, move forward. Here, be here. Just as you are. Smile, and breathe. Dance a little. Still, here you are.” l.m.v I believe being in alignment has a lot to do with if one’s words align with one’s actions. Oftentimes we say one thing, and then end up doing the opposite. Not fulfilling our potential. Listening to and believing in the voice ”You can’t do it”, rather than to the voice ”Of course you can, go for it!” A rather common human trait. Why? I don’t, …

The cure for loneliness

”By helping each other we’re helping ourselves.” It seems like humans are feeling more lonely and isolated than ever before. And whereas there are varying root causes to this I wish to adress one possible explanation. Self-empowerment, self-help, self-actualization, self-care, self, self, self Self-absorbtion. While I believe the self-help industry has many positive side effects, I also believe that the moment we become too self-absorbed the negative effects outweigh the positive ones. In other words, if you’re overly concerned with yourself, your own feelings and thoughts you might easily turn into a self-absorbed human being. Don’t get me wrong, I still believe in self-empowerment, self-actualization and self-growth. I believe in self-love. Compassion towards others begins with compassion towards the self. It’s nothing wrong in wanting to improve and evolve as a human being, in fact, it’s a necessity for us in order to evolve as a spieces. You’re not special. I think it was the Dalai lama who said that whenever he is having a talk in front of thousands of people he always reminds …

A bird’s eye view

”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. For the most part of my life I’ve tried to live with an open-mind. I’m very curious, and I’ve always thought that there can’t be one answer to all of this. Of course not. My opinions do not have to align with yours. However, I will always respect you, for being you. For your actions, and thoughts, even those I don’t agree with. ”Oh, you think like that, interesting.” I think if we humans would strive to become better …

Dear February…

… let’s be brave enough to speak up about the things important to us. ”It’s in the things that deeply inspires us that we find ourselves.” During the darkest of hours, my first screaming breath, with you. Flawless, being one with your calmness. Like the coldest of winters you embrace our deepest desires, our deepest needs. Forcing us to step into our own power. Fearless, being one with the stillness. Guided by love, compassion and courage. Truthfully ever after. February is for evolving, getting one year richer. One year wiser. Staying curious, and open-minded. Finding joy and laughter, everything we sought after. It’s about speaking up, being true to our own unique voices. It’s time to stop being afraid of getting older – it’s time to show our deepest appreciation instead. Becoming curious enough to want to know more about ourselves, and the ways in which we can expand. There’s much to discover and learn about life, about ourselves, as well as the people around us. Spending precious, slow time alone, gaining a better understanding of …

The sacred intuitive mind

”Creativity thrives in stillness, arises from the no-thingness.” When you allow yourself to simply sit, with yourself, and let the thoughts wander freely – no holding on, no grasping, simply observing; insights, and new solutions to your challenges might arise. One of our biggest dilemmas, I believe, is that we think about life more than we are actually living life. And isn’t it precisely because of that, that we need to remember to appreciate the moments in between. Life is to be found in the smallest of details; the morning sun gently caressing the ground, the taste of ocean air, your lovers facial expression when she’s talking about something important to her, a strangers helping hand, the sound of your sleeping child. Lately, I’ve rarely given myself the time to sit down, and write. Writing has often been the thing that has provided me with the most comfort; to acknowledge the calmness, and just let whatever that wants to arise, arise. You see, the words, more often than not, surface out of the stillness. They …
